Hi Mylie, thank you for commenting and I’m glad the info was helpful. No, I haven’t dried and powdered arrowroot. I’ve found that the older tubers contain the most starch, but are also the most fibrous. If I were to want to harvest the starch specifically I would experiment with chopping/shredding/grating older tubers and sitting them in water. The fine, heavier starch will fall and sit at the bottom and the fiber will rise toward the surface and can then be poured off with the water. But this would be laborious and time consuming to produce any worthwhile quantity of clean starch. I suppose you could just shred/grate then dry and add that to stews etc, but I’m not sure how palatable it would be. Comment here about your experiments!

I’m glad it was helpful, Sharon, thanks for commenting =)
