ORGANIC MESQUITE, powder

Organic Mesquite powder is a nutritious food ingredient derived from the long pods of the Prosopis pallida bush, a highly resilient desert plant. Mesquite, also known as kiawe or American carob, is known for its sweet, earthy taste that is similar to cacao and carob. The plant itself is incredibly hardy, able to survive harsh desert climates and even live for over a millennium, showcasing its endurance.

This powder offers a unique molasses-like flavour that enhances a variety of dishes. Mesquite is naturally high in protein and dietary fibre, and is naturally low on the glycemic index. It is also a source of natural sugars and important minerals like magnesium, iron, zinc, and potassium. Mesquite powder provides a distinctive, slightly sweet flavour that can be blended into smoothies and chocolates, mixed into baked goods, or sprinkled over oatmeal. This flavourful, earth-toned powder is a versatile culinary addition for depth and sweetness.
