Honest to Goodness Organic Guar Gum Powder 250g is a finely milled thickener for gluten-free baking and cooking. Made from guar-bean seeds, it is useful when a recipe needs a small amount of binding or thickening without adding a large quantity of flour.
The powder is off-white, with a flour-like appearance and a light earthy odour. Its ingredient list contains organic guar gum only. The guar seeds are dehusked, milled and screened to make the powder, and the country of origin is India. This is ordinary guar gum: choose it for its thickening properties, rather than treating it as interchangeable with partially hydrolysed guar gum, commonly labelled PHGG. Those two formats behave differently in a recipe.
A little goes a long way. For gluten-free cakes, muffins, bread, cookies or pizza dough, the brand recommends half a teaspoon per cup of gluten-free flour. Measure carefully and follow the rest of your recipe, as too much guar gum can produce a heavy or stringy texture. It can also thicken gravies, sauces and soups in place of flour. Start with the amount your recipe specifies and allow the mixture to develop before deciding whether it needs more.
The 250g pack suits a home baking cupboard where the powder is measured in small quantities. Keep a measuring spoon nearby so each batch is consistent, and close the pack after use to keep the remaining powder dry. Store in a cool, dry place. The supplier lists no declarable allergens; check the current packaging when shopping for a particular dietary requirement. Use it as an ingredient in prepared food, with the amount chosen for the recipe.
