NOW Real Food Organic Tapioca Flour – Gluten-Free Baking & Thickening, 16 oz

NOW Real Food Organic Tapioca Flour, also known as tapioca starch, is a versatile, gluten-free ingredient derived from the root of the cassava plant. This fine flour is a fantastic thickening agent and an excellent substitute for wheat flour in a wide range of recipes. It is widely used to make soft, tender baked goods — breads, cookies, cakes, biscuits, and more — and it is an excellent addition to baked goods with a high liquid content, such as fruit pies, since tapioca absorbs moisture effectively. It is also commonly used as a thickening agent in soups and sauces, making it a pantry staple for home bakers and cooks.
