Must-haveMar 02, 2011
By J. Loscheider
"No one knows I'm a radical"
Xantham gum is essential to any gluten-free baking. You can use guar gum but it just isn't as good. This is top quality product, and a little goes a long way. Most recipes only call for a teaspoon or two. An order of 6 8-ounce packages should last an average household two years (unless you bake bread twice a week, then it's only a year maybe :-) ).
One caveat - this is a very fine dust and it is best handled carefully... unless you like a pricey haze of xantham around your kitchen.

Good for Egg Sensitivity/Vegan BakingJul 26, 2010
By Comment@try2bHelpful
Gluten is not a concern for us, however, we use many vegan recipes which are also accommodate gluten free sensitivities. Sometimes I use gluten/flour with those vegan recipes. This product makes egg-free cookies and other baked goods truly excellent.

Great price on serious quantity of Xanthan Gum, the low-carb all-purpose thickener for those on low-carb diets. With Subscribe & Save, I can get enough to share and more if I need it.

Worth every pennyJun 19, 2006
By Dagger
Xanthan gum is the key to (most) gluten-free baking, and Bob's Red Mill is one of the most reliable sources for all gluten-free baking products.
