Guar gum is obtained from the seeds of the guar plant Cyamopsis tetragonoloba<\/em>, native to India and Pakistan.
\nGuar gum is similar in properties to locust bean gum (made from locust bean powder). Like guar gum, this powder is made from the endosperm of legume seeds. However, there are differences between the two species. Guar gum dissolves quickly in room temperature water, while locust bean gum needs to be heated to about 85\u00b0C to dissolve well.
\nTo avoid confusion, let us remind you that the much-loved “chocolate” carob powder is made from locust bean pods, while locust bean gum is made from locust bean seeds.
\nGuar gum is a natural thickener and stabiliser (E412) widely used in the food, pharmaceutical and cosmetic industries.<\/p>\n

Attention!<\/strong>
\nAlthough organic guar gum is safe for most people, excessive consumption can cause side effects such as bloating, gas and abdominal discomfort.
\nIt is very important to use guar gum in moderation and to take individual needs into account.<\/p>\n

Uses<\/strong>
\nGuar gum improves the texture and volume of breads, cakes and pastries, thereby improving quality and giving a longer shelf life.
\nGuar gum is commonly used in plant-based dairy and yoghurt products to achieve a creamy texture and prevent separation of ingredients.
\nGuar gum is an excellent thickener for sauces, creating a smooth texture.
\nIt is also used in desserts and ice cream.
\nGuar gum can be used as a substitute for gelatine with a neutral taste and smell.<\/p>\n

Recommended use<\/strong>
\nFor warm dishes (sauces, stews, puddings) – use 1-3 teaspoons of powder per 1 litre of liquid.
\nFor cold dishes (salad dressings, ice creams) – use 1-2 teaspoons of powder per 1 litre of liquid.<\/p>\n

For internal use, guar gum is safe for most people, but it is recommended not to use it for more than two years.
\nPregnant women can safely use guar gum for up to 4 weeks
\nFor those who are breastfeeding – there is not enough information to know if guar gum is safe to use while breastfeeding.
\nChildren Guar gum is safe for children from 4 years of age.<\/p>\n
