Blanched Cassava Flour: Overview
Blanched cassava flour, derived from the starchy tuberous root of the cassava plant (Manihot esculenta), is a versatile and gluten-free alternative to traditional wheat flour. The process of blanching involves immersing the cassava root in boiling water briefly, followed by drying and milling, which helps remove some of the naturally occurring toxins, resulting in a milder flavor and improved texture.
This fine, white flour is a staple in many tropical regions, where cassava is abundant. Blanched cassava flour boasts numerous advantages, including its gluten-free nature, making it suitable for those with gluten intolerances or celiac disease. It is also a source of complex carbohydrates, dietary fiber, and essential nutrients like vitamin C and folate.
Blanched cassava flour can be used in a variety of culinary applications, from baking to thickening sauces and gravies. It imparts a neutral taste and a smooth, light texture to baked goods. Its versatility and nutritional profile make it a valuable ingredient in gluten-free, grain-free, and paleo diets, allowing individuals to enjoy a wide range of dishes without compromising on taste or dietary restrictions.
