tapioca starch
Root-derived thickening powder
Tapioca starch is a fine white powder extracted from cassava root, used as a thickening agent in cooking and baking.
It produces a glossy, slightly chewy texture in sauces, puddings, and pie fillings.
Tapioca starch is gluten-free and popular in Asian cuisines for making translucent dumplings and chewy desserts: The boba pearls are made from tapioca starch.
