Cream of Tartar Cream of Tartar
Cream of tartar is a necessity in any kitchen. It is used primarily to give more volume to foods such as beaten eggs. Use a small amount to provide a creamier texture in baked good as well.

Gluten Free Corn Starch Gluten Free Corn Starch
Gluten-free corn starch is commonly used as a thickener for sauces, puddings, and such. It tends to form lumps so it is usually mixed with a small amount of liquid to make a paste before using it.
