Product Overview
Lotus Potato Starch is a clean, neutral-tasting pantry staple that makes sauces glossy, soups silky, and gluten-free baking noticeably lighter. It’s made from 100% potato starch and works especially well when you want thickening power without the “floury” taste you can get from wheat-based starches.
In savoury cooking, it’s ideal for gravies, stews, curries, broths and stir-fry sauces because it thickens smoothly and holds up well to heat. In baking, potato starch helps improve crumb and softness in gluten-free cakes, biscuits and bread-style recipes — think “less dense, more fluffy”, without changing the flavour.
This is a simple, versatile ingredient for anyone who cooks gluten-free (or just wants a reliable thickener). Keep it on hand for quick weeknight meals: thicken a pan sauce, rescue a watery soup, or add a small amount to gluten-free flour blends for a better finished texture.
Sustainability & quality: Lotus products are sourced internationally and packed in Australia. The 500g size is packed in a resealable oxygen-barrier bag designed to help preserve freshness between uses.
