The trachea connects the larynx and bronchi. It is lined with a mucus membrane with respiratory epithelium and a lamina propria, and a submucosa containing horseshoe shape hyaline cartilages and numerous mucus and mixed glands (Trachea 1).
Arrowroot starch and tapioca flour are two products that are used quite a bit in gluten-free cooking and baking. They are used to replace corn starch and wheat flour in various recipes. Arrowroot starch can sometimes substitute for tapioca flour depending on the application.
I often use arrowroot powder as a thickener in recipes such as stews or pie fillings, though I also use it in baked goods to make them less dense and to âlightenâ the heavy texture and mouthfeel of almond flour. The arrowroot plant is a close cousin of the kudzu plant. Both grow naturally in the Southern United States and Asia and are used in similar ways for cooking. I use arrowroot in everything from my Banana Cream Pie Cupcakes to Chocolate Covered Cherries to my Chocolate Peanut Butter Tart. I also use it in some entrees such as Vegetarian Pad Thai.
