Xanthan gum is available in small quantities at Health Food stores, fairly
expensive $8.50-9.00/6oz pkg. It will add viscosity but does nothing as a
preservative. Mix with sugar or other powders, or add to oil before adding
to water or vinegar solutions. Let stand 3-5 min stir, use blender for
maximum thickness. Usage level start at .25% by weight and adjust from there
depending on thickness desired.
