Ener-G Foods Xanthan Gum – 6 ozs.
Xanthan Gum
Xanthan gum is a powder milled from the dried cell coat of a microorganism
called Xanthomonas campestris grown under laboratory conditions. It acts
as a gluten substitute. Xanthan gum is added to salad dressings, canned
gravies and sauces, and even ice cream to give these foods a smoother texture.
It also has the ability to hold the particles of a food together well
which makes it a good stabilizer. It has recently been shown to be a good
substitute for gluten in yeast breads.
