Bob's Red Mill Xanthan Gum 227g

In the world of gluten-free baking, xanthan gum plays the crucial role of imitating gluten. In baking, gluten is what makes dough "doughy." Gluten gives the dough elasticity, as well as viscosity. Xanthan gum acts as an emulsifier and a binder, and adds volume to gluten free breads, cookies, cakes, and other baked goods.
