Carob seed flour /Locust bean gum/carob gum) 50gr | SaporePuro

Carob Seed Flour is very versatile in cooking and is used as a natural thickener in many recipes. The recommended dosage varies depending on the preparation, but generally about 10 grams of carob seed flour per liter of liquid is recommended. Our Carob Seed Flour is a high-quality product made entirely in Italy. It comes from the seeds of the carob plant.

Due to its very high viscosity it can absorb up to 40 percent water, its thickening function is similar to that of cornstarch, but it contains fewer calories. Given its highly thickening power, the ideal dosage in ice cream is about 0.5 to 1%.

It is useful to mix the flour with all the ingredients used and then bring the mixture to a temperature of 80° for 2 minutes. The desired consistency will be revealed during the cooling process.

ICE CREAM: Carob seed flour is the most widely used natural additive in ice cream making because it gives ice cream a uniform, velvety texture. It prevents the formation of ice crystals. It slows down the melting process of ice cream once frozen.

COOKING: Use as an additional ingredient in the preparation of fresh pasta or a special bread.

VEGAN: Carob seed flour is ideal for making cakes free of milk and eggs.
