"Glucomannan is a very low carb and low glycemic food additive used as an emulsifier and thickener made from konjac root. This recipe originally called for cornstarch. Glucomannan was used instead and the directions and timing were adjusted for this substitution."

I believe I will cut back on the garlic by one clove next time. Four cloves seemed a bit overpowering and we love garlic. Made for Pick A Chef Spring 2014 Event. :)
