carob powder


Explanation:
Carob powder or locust bean flour.

Made from Ceratonia siliqua, a tree grown in the Mediterranean.

The seeds grow in pods also known as locust beans, and thus associated with John the Baptist.

Explanation:
This is E410. So that designation alone may be sufficient, depending on the context.

As an explanation, it is Locust bean gum, which is made from the seeds of the carob tree. It is used as a thickener, stabilizer and considered to be a natural gum.
