A versatile potato starch essential in Latin American cooking and baking.

Chuño, also known as potato starch or fécula de papa, is a traditional ingredient widely used across Latin America, especially in Andean countries like Peru, Bolivia, Ecuador, and Colombia. Made from dehydrated potato starch, it’s prized for its neutral taste, fine texture, and ability to thicken soups, stews, sauces, and baked goods without altering flavor.

Perfect for gluten-free cooking, traditional recipes, and desserts like alfajores, pandebonos, or empanadas de almidón, this staple is now available in Estonia, Latvia, and Lithuania.

Perfect for:

• Thickening soups, sauces, and gravies

• Baking gluten-free cakes, breads, and pastries

• Preparing Latin American recipes with authentic texture

How to use:
Use as a thickener or flour substitute. Mix with cold liquid before adding to hot preparations for best results.
