Storage Tips

Airtight container, cool dry place, up to 6 months.

Baking Science

The xanthan gum mimics gluten's elasticity. Hydrates slowly — let batters rest 10 minutes before baking. Will not develop a chewy bread crumb without added psyllium or eggs.

Recipe Context

For cakes: use weight to avoid dense crumb from over-measuring.

For bread: control hydration by weighing flour and liquids together.

For cookies: 10-20g extra flour can reduce spread noticeably.

Common Pitfalls

  • Switching brands without re-checking weight can change texture and bake time.
  • Using volume-only measurements for dense ingredients can overshoot recipe targets.
  • Scooping directly from the bag compresses flour and can make bakes dry.

Brand Variance & Measuring Method

Baseline reference: 1 cup gluten-free flour blend (1:1) = 156g. In real kitchens, a practical range is usually 137g-175g per cup (12% band).

Why this happens: flours and grains compact differently based on scoop method, humidity, and grind fineness.
