It will be a while until I'm ready to release an "official" keto / non-starch thickeners video. There's just so much to test, including: do they thicken in hot and/or cold, do they require shear/blending, do they emulsify fats, and do they have interactions with other thickeners?
In this video, I have edited down my most recent kitchen livestream (which I do for channel members). Things start off rather uneventful as I simply test a few common "gum" thickeners in water to test their properties. Then, I start combining thickeners - and that's when things got weird...
