Psyllium husk powder (1kg)

Fine ground psyllium for precise control over gluten free doughs and baking.

Our psyllium husk powder is made from premium blonde psyllium husks and finely milled to 100 mesh, with a purity of 99%. The fine particle size allows it to disperse more evenly through a flour blend and hydrate quickly, making it particularly useful when you want consistent, repeatable results.

Derived from the husk of Plantago ovata seeds, psyllium is a highly functional soluble fibre. When it comes into contact with water, it absorbs moisture and forms a viscous, elastic gel. In gluten free baking, this gel provides cohesion and helps create the structure needed for workable doughs.

For bread and pizza, psyllium can help improve dough handling, flexibility, gas retention and crumb cohesion. It also helps bind water within the baked product, contributing to a softer, more resilient crumb. Its performance is particularly sensitive to hydration, so the amount of water in the recipe should always be considered alongside the amount of psyllium used.

The powder is particularly useful where you want psyllium to disappear into the formulation, without the visible flecks or coarser texture that can come from whole husks.

Why use psyllium husk powder?

• 100-mesh fine grind for excellent dispersion
• 99% purity
• Premium blonde psyllium
• Forms a strong, viscous gel when hydrated
• Improves cohesion and flexibility in gluten free dough
• Helps bind and retain water
• Supports dough structure and gas retention
• Contributes to a softer, more resilient crumb
• Particularly useful for high-hydration gluten free formulations

Particularly useful for

Gluten free bread · Pizza · Focaccia · Sourdough · Rolls · Flatbreads · Wraps · Flour blends

Powder vs whole psyllium husks

Both forms provide the same fundamental functional ingredient, but particle size matters.

Our 100-mesh powder hydrates rapidly and disperses very finely through a flour blend, making it particularly useful for smooth, consistent doughs and commercial style formulations.

Whole psyllium husks hydrate more slowly and can produce a different dough and crumb texture. They should not automatically be substituted gram-for-gram without adjusting the recipe and hydration.
