415 Thickener

415 thickener, commonly xanthan gum, is a fine powder used to increase viscosity in sauces, dressings, and gluten-free batters. Store it in a cool, dry place to prevent clumping. When measuring, weigh small amounts accurately; a pinch goes a long way. Disperse first in oil or sugar to avoid lumps when added to liquids.

• Particle size and purity level affect how quickly the powder hydrates and thickens without off-flavors.
• Packaging moisture barrier keeps the product free-flowing and extends shelf life after opening.
• Measuring spoons or scales sized for gram-level quantities improve recipe consistency.
