Related to Arrowroot
Corn Flour
Corn flour (cornstarch) thickens at the same 1:1 rate as arrowroot in sauces and fillings. Arrowroot gives a clearer, glossier set and holds up in acidic or frozen sauces, while corn flour is cheaper and turns a sauce slightly cloudy. Stir either into cold liquid first to avoid lumps. See our Corn Flour converter.
Tapioca Starch
Tapioca starch swaps 1:1 for arrowroot and also sets clear and glossy, ideal for fruit pies. Both are root starches; tapioca tolerates longer cooking and freezing better, while arrowroot thickens at a slightly lower temperature. Stir into cold liquid first to avoid lumps. See our Tapioca Starch converter.
