Arrowroot / 1x0.5Kg

Derived from the root of the Cassava plant, the dried powder is highly effective as a thickener. Indigenous to the West Indian Isles, the starch is extracted from young rhizomes of the plant. The jelly is very tenacious, providing an easily digested, nourishing diet. Use for gravy, puddings or blanc-mange; mix 1 tablespoon into cold paste and slowly stir in 1 pint of boiling fluid, flavour.
