Sauces
Xanthan gum will work in liquid of most temperatures, it has a neutral flavour so can be combined with foods without altering the taste. To thicken sauces, simply blend the Xanthan gum into the desired liquid and it will easily improve the viscosity. The more powder added, the thicker the sauce will be.
Gluten free goods
Xanthan gum can be used for cake and bread making as it will help increase consistency and improve elasticity texture. It will eliminate ‘crumbling’ but binding all the ingredients and keeping the structure intact. It ensures the ingredients are fluffed to a suitable point and prevents them from separating. A little goes a long way so you can add 2 teaspoons for every 150g of flour.
