Organic Arrowroot Powder

Ingredients: Organic Arrowroot Powder

Origin: India

Organic Arrowroot Powder is a great natural thickener.

Organic Arrowroot Powder is extracted from the root of the arrowroot plant.  It can be used like flour and is a useful alternative to traditional wheat based flours.  It is great for thickening soups, custards and gravies in the place of cornflour.

This super stuff be can really helpful when you are baking flours which don't naturally contain gluten such as organic coconut flour or organic chickpea flour due to its binding properties.

Try making your own cosmetics if you like being creative with natural products.   For a basic face mask mix 20g of Arrowroot Powder with 20g of organic neem powder and create a paste with water.  Smooth it on and leave it for 20 minutes before rinsing - and come out glowing!

If you like experimenting with speciality flours try our organic tigernut flour, organic almond flour or organic buckwheat flour.

Packaging

Most of our bulk products, 1kg or over are packed in polyethylene which is fully recyclable with the supermarket carrier bag scheme. There is a little tip on the corner of our labels which recommends to peel off the label before recycling. Another way to to identify these bags is to stretch them slightly (if they stretch then recycle them at any local carrier bag scheme).
