About Manioc flour
Manioc flour, also known as cassava flour, is derived from the dried and finely ground root of the cassava plant, native to South America and widely cultivated in Africa and Asia. A staple in many cuisines, it is gluten-free and often used as a substitute for regular wheat flour in baking and cooking. Manioc flour is high in carbohydrates, providing quick energy, but it is low in protein, fiber, and essential nutrients. It is naturally free of allergens, making it suitable for individuals with gluten or grain sensitivities. However, raw cassava contains cyanogenic compounds, which are removed during proper processing; consuming improperly processed manioc flour can be harmful. While it is highly adaptable and essential in recipes like Brazilian pão de queijo or African fufu, pairing it with nutrient-dense ingredients is recommended to balance its nutritional profile.
