Cassava Flour is produced from whole cassava tuber that has been dried and milled to form a creamy white powder. Cassava is a perennial plant that grows best in tropical climates, under moist, fertile, and well-drained soils. First cultivated in South America, the cassava root became a staple food for the natives of that region due to its valuable nutritional benefits.
