About Tapioca flour

Tapioca flour, also known as tapioca starch, is a gluten-free flour derived from the starchy roots of the cassava plant, which is native to South America and widely used in Brazilian, Southeast Asian, and African cuisines. This fine, white powder is valued for its neutral flavor, lightweight texture, and excellent binding abilities, making it a popular ingredient in gluten-free baking, thickening soups, and creating chewy textures in foods like boba pearls and flatbreads. Rich in carbohydrates, tapioca flour provides a quick energy source but is low in protein, fiber, and other essential nutrients, so it should be paired with nutrient-dense ingredients. Its easy digestibility makes it suitable for sensitive stomachs or allergen-free diets, but those managing blood sugar levels should consume it in moderation due to its high glycemic index. Versatile and accessible, tapioca flour serves as a handy pantry staple for a variety of culinary and dietary needs.
