Description
"A white powder that thickens the sauce and adds fibre to breakfast."
Inulin | 100% plant-based product | Soluble fibre
Inulin: one ingredient, three jobs in the kitchen
Liovela inulin – 100% inulin, soluble fibre of plant origin.
The ingredients list has one line: 100% inulin. It is soluble fibre of plant origin, high in fibre at 90 g per 100 g. In the kitchen it does three things: it improves the texture of smoothies, shakes and yoghurt and gives them a gentle sweetness, raises the fibre content of desserts and bakes, and thickens sauces, purées and soups. You use it a little at a time.
What it's for
Three uses from the label
Texture and gentle sweetness
Add to a smoothie, shake or yoghurt. It improves the texture and adds a gentle sweetness.
More fibre
Add to desserts and baked goods. It raises the fibre content of the finished portion.
A thickener
Use as a plant-based thickener for sauces, purées and soups.
How To Use It
Start with a little
Whisk inulin well into a little liquid before adding it to the rest. That way there are no lumps and the smoothie or sauce comes out smooth.
Start with a small amount (for example a teaspoon per portion) and increase gradually. That makes it easier to judge how the texture and flavour change.
In the kitchen
Inulin: 5 ways to use it
A smoother texture
Add a teaspoon to the blender with the fruit and plant-based drink. Whisked into a little liquid first, it will not leave lumps.
A simple addition
Stir a teaspoon into a portion of yoghurt and add fruit. The yoghurt gets a gentle sweetness and a thicker texture.
Thickening
Whisk inulin into a little cold liquid and add to the sauce, stirring. Start with a small amount and watch the texture.
A thicker soup
Add the whisked portion to hot soup or purée and stir. The soup thickens slightly.
More fibre in baking
Replace part of the flour with inulin in muffin or cake batter. Start with a small amount and increase on later attempts.
Add Liovela inulin to your basket and try it in a smoothie.
Storage
A simple rule
Keep inulin in a dry, cool place and close the pack well after opening.
The fine powder easily takes up moisture; well closed, it stays loose.
