About Arrowroot powder
Arrowroot powder, derived from the tropical tubers of the Maranta arundinacea plant, is a versatile and gluten-free starch widely used in cooking and baking. Originating from South America and the Caribbean, arrowroot has been cherished for centuries for its easy digestibility and nutrient composition. It is low in calories, fat-free, and contains small amounts of potassium, iron, and B vitamins. Known for its neutral taste and fine texture, it’s often used as a thickening agent in soups, sauces, and desserts, making it a staple in gluten-free, grain-free, and vegan recipes. Arrowroot powder is gut-friendly, as it’s less likely to irritate the digestive system, making it suitable for sensitive diets. However, its high starch content means it should be consumed in moderation to avoid spiking blood sugar levels. Popular across cuisines worldwide, it’s a healthy, natural alternative to corn starch and flour-based thickeners.
