                       Cassava Flour

Here are five things you should know about about cassava flour:

1. Native to South America and also known as yuca, cassava is a root vegetable, making it similar to other starches such as carrots beets, and parsnips.

2. While comprised predominantly of carbohydrates, cassava flour is also a great source of Vitamin C and manganese.

3. Many cassava products are naturally vegan as well as nut-, grain-, and gluten-free, making them a great choice for those on selective diets or with food allergies and sensitivities.

4. The extracted starch from cassava goes into products like tapioca and arrowroot.

5. Cassava flour’s white color, neutral taste, and fine texture make it an excellent baking substitute, so you don’t have to miss out on sweet treats if you’re unable to consume other flours or grains.
