Arrowroot powder is a white, flavourless powder produced from the rhizomes of  tropical plant arrowroot. It is commonly used to thicken food items like gravy, puddings and soups. It is twice powerful than wheat flour as a thickening agent and  it is gluten free. Though arrowroot powder is similar to cornstarch, it is finer and more absorbent.
