This versatile ingredient is commonly used as a thickener in various food applications, such as soups, sauces, and gravies, as well as in baking to add structure and texture to gluten-free recipes. Potato starch is a gluten-free, grain-free, and paleo-friendly alternative to traditional flour and cornstarch.
