CASSAVA POWDER /TAPIOCA POWDER

Cassava powder is a fine flour made from the root of the cassava plant (Manihot esculenta), a starchy tuber native to South America and widely cultivated in tropical regions. Known for its gluten-free properties, cassava powder is an excellent alternative to wheat flour in various culinary applications, making it popular among those with gluten sensitivities or celiac disease. The powder has a neutral flavor and can be used in baking, cooking, and thickening sauces, as well as in traditional dishes like tapioca and fufu. Rich in carbohydrates, cassava powder provides a good source of energy and is also high in fiber. Its versatility and nutritional benefits make cassava powder a staple ingredient in many kitchens around the world.
