About this item

  • Xanthan Gum is an essential ingredient for gluten free baking. This food additive acts as an emulsifier and a binder, and adds volume to gluten free breads, cookies, cakes, and other baked goods.
  • Xanthan gum has a number of powerful properties as a food additive. First, it works as an emulsifier, encouraging liquids that normally don't like one another to mix together. Second, it works as thickener, increasing the viscosity of liquids and batters. Third, it can create a creamy texture in items like ice cream and salad dressings.

Product description

Xanthan gum is a plant-based thickening and stabilizing agent. It is named for the bacteria, Xanthomonas campestris, which plays a crucial role in this description. Technically speaking, xanthan gum is a polysaccharide, which is just a fancy way to say "a string of multiple sugars." To create xanthan gum, the Xanthomonas campestris bacterium is allowed to ferment on a sugar. The result is a gel that is then dried and milled to create the powder substance. Xanthan gum has a number of powerful properties. First, it works as an emulsifier, encouraging liquids that normally don't like one another to mix together. Second, it works as thickener, increasing the viscosity of liquids and batters. Third, it can create a creamy texture. In the world of gluten-free baking, xanthan gum plays the crucial role of imitating gluten. In baking, gluten is what makes dough "doughy." It gives the dough elasticity, as well as viscosity. Those properties help to hold a cookie together while it bakes on a sheet in the oven, and they enable cakes and breads to hold onto the gas bubbles that form inside them - this allows them to rise and take shape. Xanthan gum helps replicate these properties in recipes that do not contain gluten.

    I’d never used xanthan gum before but it is going to be my go-to thickener from now on. It only takes a small amount to thicken any sauce, gravy or soup. But the big advantage is that it will also work on cold liquids.

    Bob's Red Mill Xanthan Gum, 227 g

    I am in Canada. I did some research & this was rated fatly high. With no fillers etc. But I do have to say that it does have a taste that is hard to get use to. Would be better if there was no taste associated with it. I have trouble tasting things so I don't know what it would be like normally. I am on my 2nd bag now.

    I don't think all batches are equal. I purchased this a few days ago. It doesn't gel like the first batch as you nneed to use much more.
