Xanthan Gum
What it is
A gum made by fermentation of sugar. It thickens cold or hot and tolerates salt, acid and heat.
What it does
It builds viscosity that thins while being pumped or poured and recovers at rest, so it keeps fats, water and solids from separating. It works strongly with locust bean gum.
