Description

Potato flour, a fine-textured flour ground from whole peeled potatoes, is a gluten-free, grain-free flour rich in fiber and flavor. It's an excellent alternative for those with gluten allergies or intolerances, making it perfect for baking a variety of gluten-free breads, cakes, pancakes, and other baked goods. Potato flour is also renowned for its moisture retention, providing an unmistakable moistness and fluffy texture to your culinary creations. Due to its strong potato flavor, it is often used in small quantities, in combination with other flours, offering a subtle taste yet nutritionally enhancing the dish. It also serves as a thickener for sauces, gravies, and soups, providing a smooth, velvety consistency. Moreover, when used in dough, it can extend shelf life due to its natural properties.

Grocery Store Location

Potato flour can usually be found in the baking aisle of a grocery store, often near other alternative and gluten-free flours like almond flour, coconut flour, etc. If the store has a section for gluten-free or organic products, it may also be found there. If you're unable to find it, you could ask a store employee for help.
