It's Just - Xanthan Gum, 8oz

This was my first time using xanthan gum and it worked as expected. I use a small amount in smoothies and recipes that need a thicker texture. The bag arrived sealed and seems like it will last a long time.

I use Xanthan Gum a tremendous amount, and I’m still working my way through this bag. I make batches of PreHy (PreHydrated Xanthan Gum), so I have a “gel” readily available in the fridge. Then I use in a variety of ways: - sauces - beurre blanc becomes the easiest sauce with some PreHy - near foolproof - salad dressings - emulsify dressings to coat salads - new favorite - put in milk for frothing in coffee drinks. The PreHy with milks really captures the bubbles from frothing, making milk-coffee drinks feel rich Not to mention my original use-case, which is for Ninja Creami recipes

I started using xanthan gum to thicken smoothies and a few recipes, and it works really well. You only need a tiny amount, so it lasts forever. It blends best if you add it slowly or mix it in while blending to avoid clumping. What I like most is it doesn’t change the taste or texture in a weird way, just makes things thicker and smoother. Simple, effective, and worth having on hand if you cook or make shakes regularly.

This xanthum gum was incredibly helpful in elevating my ninja creami recipes. It works well with low fat, zero sugar bases, was definitely worth the price as it’s one of the cheapest options, and make my ice cream much thicker than before. My only gripe with the product is the zip-lock. It’s pretty hard to seal, and I’m not sure if it was only my package, but overall it’s a good product. Would recommend.

This xanthan gum performs as expected with no surprises. It hydrates evenly, thickens quickly, and doesn’t clump if you use a reasonable technique. A very small amount goes a long way, which makes the bag last. No off smell, no strange taste, and no grit once fully dispersed. Works well for sauces, dressings, and gluten-free or keto baking where texture actually matters. Results are consistent across batches. Packaging is straightforward and seals properly. This is a basic ingredient done correctly—reliable, predictable, and fit for regular use.

Great purchase !

I've been trying to make more of my favorite fraps at-home to cut down on my Starbucks budget for solidarity during the current (organic-)boycott against Starbucks (#FreePalestine). But my frappucinos always ended up with just the "wrong" texture, which really upset my ability to drink it due to my autism making certain sensory experiences unacceptable no matter how hard I try to ignore them and enjoy the drink anyway. I eventually heard adding xanthum gum helped the fraps texture, and saw a couple videos including this bag specifically, and it does help a lot! I'm still working on perfecting the taste, but I can drink past a "wrong" taste as long as it's still close enough now that the texture is much more ideal. Starbucks' Frappuccino Base is basically xanthum gum, water, and sugar apparently(? So I have heard anyway); so, again, this helps a lot if you want to get a texture more standardized from what comes from Starbucks into your own home. Highly recommend! And you don't even have tp use a lot per drink, so this single baggy will last me a long time! Definitely buy this, and then look up your favorite Starbucks' frap receipes; they've all been leaked at least once lol

Tried to use this as a thickening agent for sugar free syrup, but was disappointed in the results. It may be me, or the recipe, or my expectations ... but I would not try again
