Tapioca Flour
About this product
TKM Foods – Tapioca Flour
Tapioca flour, also known as tapioca starch, is a fine, white, gluten-free powder made from the cassava root. It has a neutral flavor and is valued in cooking for its versatility. It acts as an excellent thickening agent for soups, sauces, and pie fillings, and is widely used in gluten-free baking to add chewiness and moisture. Tapioca flour also creates a crisp texture when used as a coating for frying and is key to making foods like boba pearls and Brazilian cheese bread (pão de queijo). It stores well in a cool, dry place and is a staple in many global cuisines.
Additional Information
Common Uses:
Thickening Agent
Tapioca flour is widely used to thicken sauces, soups, stews, and pie fillings. It creates a glossy, smooth finish and is preferred over cornstarch in acidic or freezing applications, as it holds up well under both conditions.
- How to use: Mix with cold liquid to make a slurry before adding to hot dishes to avoid clumping.
- Best for: Fruit pies, gravies, puddings, and stir-fries.
Gluten-Free Baking
In gluten-free baking, tapioca flour provides stretch, chewiness, and moisture retention, often used alongside almond, rice, or coconut flour.
- Common in: Gluten-free bread, pizza dough, muffins, tortillas, and brownies.
- Note: It should be used in combination with other flours for structure and balance.
Crisping & Coating
When used as a coating for frying, tapioca flour creates a light, crisp crust that holds up well and stays crunchy.
- Great for: Fried tofu, chicken, fish, or vegetables.
- Tip: Use alone or blend with rice flour for extra crunch.
Chewy Texture Creation
In some cuisines, especially Brazilian and Southeast Asian, tapioca flour is used to create elastic or chewy textures.
- Examples:
- Pão de queijo (Brazilian cheese bread) – chewy interior from tapioca starch.
- Boba pearls – the chewy balls in bubble tea.
- Flatbreads – such as tapioca crepes in Brazil (called "beiju").
- Baking Mix: Replace ¼ of your regular flour with tapioca flour in cookie or cake recipes for a slightly chewier texture.
- Gravy Thickener: Add a slurry of 1 tablespoon tapioca flour + 2 tablespoons cold water to hot gravy, stirring until thickened.
- Crispy Tofu: Dust tofu cubes in tapioca flour before pan-frying for an ultra-crisp crust.
- Breakfast Crepe: Make a quick beiju crepe by sifting tapioca flour over a hot non-stick skillet—no batter required.
- Boba DIY: Make your own tapioca pearls by kneading boiled water into tapioca flour and shaping into small balls before boiling.
Storage Tips
- Keep tapioca flour in an airtight container in a cool, dry place. It has a long shelf life when stored properly and doesn’t spoil easily.
