Good
Better packaging than Phil vickery one and cheaper..all this D Farm range are great products..lid difficult to remove..apart from that, can’t fault it..
Good product but terrible packaging
The packet tens to split - 2 out of 5 have done this on me - along the seams down the sides, spilling powder everywhere
Difficult tub to use
I have the same problem with this packaging as I do with Doves Farm baking powder. The tub is so narrow and deep that you can't get the measuring spoon in after it is half empty. Having to pour it out makes accurate measuring very difficult.
Does it's job
Xanthan gum is essential for making gluten free bread, and also improves other recipes made with non-wheat flours - cakes, pastry etc. It doesn't add any flavour but provides the right texture. It stops pastry or bread from being excessively crumbly. This does the job perfectly well. I always use more than the recipe says, to give a good texture to my bread. Yes its made from the excretions of bacteria, but so what, I happily drink yeast wee.
