Arrowroot powder is a starch extracted from the roots of the arrowroot plant. The plant is native to India and South America, where it was grown as an ancient herb and used medicinally to draw out toxins by native people. It has gained tremendous popularity recently as a thickener in gluten-free cooking. Since it is entirely plant source it is vegan. It mixes easily at room temperature and can be used to replace cornflour. Arrowroot is found growing wildly in India mostly in the states of Orissa and Kerala. Ours is sourced from Orissa where it is found in abundance; collected and processed by Tribal women.
