Xanthan Gum

In the gluten-free cooking, xanthan gum plays the crucial role of imitating gluten. In baking, gluten is what makes dough sticky, elastic and viscous. Xanthan Gum is a vegan thickening agent that is sourced purely from plants and also works as a stabilizer. It has a number of powerful properties: First, it works as an emulsifier, enabling liquids that normally don’t like one another to mix together. Second, it works as thickener in liquids and batters.
