Find all Jane’s recipes that use Arrowroot Powder
Arrowroot powder comes from a tropical tuber root. It is a fine, tasteless white powder used to thicken sauces and soups. I use it as a gluten-free binder in baked goods, such as cakes, cupcakes and even pancakes. It is an excellent substitute for cornstarch, which is usually GMO. Or potato starch, which is a nightshade. Since both these are common allergens, arrowroot has the distinct advantage that it is neither a GMO grain nor a nightshade plant.
Arrowroot must be heated to thicken. To use it in baked goods, add it into the dry ingredients like a flour. To thicken soups or sauces with arrowroot, stir a teaspoon or two first into a small amount of cool liquid (water, alternative milk, or broth). Then add that mixture to the soup or sauce and heat while stirring.
