Creamy Skillet Chicken Gravy Recipe - Cooking Index
ThickenThin not/Starch® is a non-starch vegetable gum thickener from ExpertFoods with only 1.5 grams per teaspoon (all fiber) and lots of thickening power. However, some people notice an "artificial" taste in things it's in. If you can afford the carbs, 1 tablespoon potato starch is a good value (8 grams per tablespoon for entire recipe).
