Arrowroot Starch Flour, 16 OZ
What You Should Know
You'd spot this in the baking or gluten-free aisle or your pantry when reaching for a thickener for sauces, puddings or light baking. It feels like a practical, wholesome pantry staple—neutral, slightly nostalgic for scratch cooking—and its fine, single-ingredient powder comes from mechanical extraction rather than multi-ingredient formulation. That processing gives a smooth texture but, since it contains only arrowroot starch with no additives, it aligns more with minimally/culinary-processed ingredients than ultra-processed foods.
