That is why I have this jar just of locust bean, or carob gum. I heat it to boiling point for a minute or so to activate it. Then I combine it with lambda carageenan while tempering the eggs, and guar gum as it cools. I us 4 parts locust bean gum, 2 parts guar gum, and one part lamda carageenan, for a home 1l batch I use a total of 1.5 grams, so that is 0.86 grams locust been gum, 0.43 g guar gum, and 0.2 grams lamda carageenan. Meaure carefully with an 8th tsp measuring spoon and a milligram scale. Don't use too much or it will taste bready, mushy, and the taste will linger too long, and will taste artificial. The best way to prevent clumping is to mix is with sugar and sift it together. Review: Great For Cream Recipes, But Be Careful Not to Use Too Much - I was looking for some of this stuff because we make cream soups, cream sauces and sometimes ice cream products. This helps make them creamier and smoother. HOW THIS COMES This comes in a nice thick plastic jar and the top seems to be pretty good too. HOW TO USE Find recipes that you like that use locust bean gum and see how much they call for in each one. Make a small partial recipe and experiment. See if you can find that spot you feel best at and go from there. WHAT WE USE IT IN This made a really nice cream soup creamier. It gives a smoothness without adding flavor. We didn't put very much in and it was just enough. THE BOTTOM LINE This is handy to have around the house if you do a lot of recipes with cream in them. We do and I am excited to have this. MY RATING FIVE STARS. This is expensive, but in our case, we use sparingly so it will last a long time. I know I will try to find many of those old recipes I put on hold because I really wanted the locust bean gum to add to them to make them just right. If you don't think you would use this a lot, it is a pretty big investment. If you like to make creamy things, then you might find that you like it too and I recommend based on my experience so far. I will update if anything changes. ## Features - 🍨 Creamier Ice Cream & Gelato: Natural stabilizer that reduces ice crystals for ultra-smooth scoops. - 🥫 Versatile Thickener: Perfect for sauces, dressings, dairy, plant-based milks, soups, jams, and bakery. - 🌿 Plant-Based & Food-Grade: Pure Locust Bean Gum (E410) from carob seeds—vegan and neutral in flavor. - ⚗️ Easy To Use: Whisk 0.2–0.5% into liquid and heat to ~176°F (80°C) for full hydration; blends great with kappa carrageenan. - 🧴 Kitchen-Ready Jar: 4 oz fine powder in a resealable, label-led jar for clean storage and precise scooping. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B0CP6M9QQL | | Age Range Description | Infant | | Allergen Information | Allergen-Free | | Best Sellers Rank | #111,884 in Grocery & Gourmet Food ( See Top 100 in Grocery & Gourmet Food ) #55 in Xanthan Gum Thickeners | | Brand | benosen | | Brand Name | benosen | | Cuisine | Western | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 out of 5 stars 41 Reviews | | Diet Type | Gluten Free, Halal, Kosher, Plant Based, Vegan | | Flavor | Unflavored | | Item Weight | 4 ounces | | Number of Items | 1 | | Size | 4 Ounce (Pack of 1) | | Specialty | GMO Free, Gluten Free, Vegan | | UPC | 795258106085 | | Unit Count | 4 Ounce | ## Product Details - **Brand:** benosen - **Cuisine:** Western - **Flavor:** Unflavored - **Item Weight:** 4 ounces - **Number of Items:** 1 ## Images ![Benosen Locust Bean Gum Powder 4 oz - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61+RudNJURL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ This will take your ice cream to the next level. *by S***T on March 4, 2025* When using stabilizers, it is important to activate each stabilizer at the proper temperature.
