Usage Tips

Wheat starch can be used for thickening sauces, gravies, and puddings.
It is best to stir wheat starch into water first before it is added to other foods, so that wheat starch can be more easily incorporated without creating lumps.

Description

Wheat starch is a powdery substance that is obtained from wheat kernels. Wheat starch is very useful as a thickener, but it doesn't have as much thickening power as cornstarch.

Note

Wheat starch is not safe for people who are allergic to wheat, even if it's gluten free.⁽¹⁾
