The white powder seems unremarkable at first - but it is full of (super) power. Even a small amount of guar gum is enough to thicken liquids and even make jellies. The plant-based powder has been a staple in vegan kitchens and bakeries for quite some time - and deserves attention beyond! You can order a kilo of the vegetarian gelatine substitute in the low-priced value pack.

Guar gum - the ideal binding agent

Guar gum binds and thickens any composition, whether liquid, solid, cold or warm. You can even freeze and defrost thickened treats such as ice cream. The bond still stays strong. Like David and Victoria Beckham. Or William and Kate. Back to the topic: Guar gum is a binding agent in the best sense of the word and can be used for a great number of things.

Guar gum - more than a gelatine replacement

Guar gum is almost odourless and has no strong taste of its own. Doesn't sound convincing? Trust us: it's exactly what you need. The role of guar gum is not to bring flavour, but to work its magic - aka to bind your creations as much as it can! Guar gum practically becomes your vegan gelatine: with guar gum you can thicken sauces and jams - without any slaughterhouse waste or pork rinds. But guar gum is not only the little vegan sister of gelatine, no, it can do even more: when making vegan ice cream, guar gum provides the longed-for creamy consistency, as it stops ice crystals from forming, among other things. Pretty cool, isn't it? And thanks to guar gum, your homemade bread becomes fluffy and stays fresh longer. As you can see, the unremarkable powder is a real game changer.

Recipes with guar gum

Due to its special binding power, guar gum can be used in many ways. Of course, it is especially good for thickening sauces and soups. How about a vegan bechamel sauce for your veggie lasagne, for example? Or a fancy frosting for your cupcakes. Guar gum can be both savoury and sweet and can be stirred into many desserts, for example: Guar gum also ensures the right consistency in home-made puddings. Our KoRo secret tip: You can make jam with guar gum in just a few minutes - no cooking needed!

Is there a difference between guar gum and locust bean gum?

Locust bean gum and guar gum are not the same thing. They are both binders that are also vegan and gluten-free. Thus, you can replace locust bean gum with guar gum and vice versa. However, the binding power of guar gum is greater, which is why you need to adjust the dosage in this case. Some recipes use both locust bean gum and guar gum. The reason for this is that the two binding substances reinforce each other in their effect.

Guar gum is naturally gluten-free. You don't have to worry about cross-contamination either, no gluten-containing foods are processed near guar gum.

Yes, our guar gum is made from 100% powdered guar bean seeds and is free of any animal ingredients.

Guar gum does not have a strong odor or taste. Since even small amounts can bind a lot of liquid, you do not have to expect an aftertaste in your creations.

Our White chocolate pudding gets an extra creamy consistency from the guar gum and our vegan pistachio ice cream is not only bound but also protected from ice crystals thanks to the vegan gelatin substitute. Of course, you can also use our guar gum to conjure up a homemade jam or become a true baking master with your freshly baked baked bread. Guar gum is an optimal binder for recipes that are based on a gluten-free and / or vegan.
