Mondamin Soßenbinder dunkel

Mondamin is a historic German brand specializing in starch-based cooking products. Originally established in 1896 in Berlin, the brand became famous for its fine cornstarch and later expanded its portfolio to include convenient sauce thickeners (Soßenbinder) like the one shown in the image. The brand name itself is inspired by a legend of the corn god 'Mondamin' from Native American mythology, which was popularized in Europe during the 19th century.

Today, the brand is owned by the British multinational consumer goods company Unilever. Mondamin products are primarily produced in Germany, specifically at the Unilever production facilities in Heilbronn. It remains a staple in German and European kitchens, recognized for its 'Soßenbinder' technology that allows for lump-free thickening of dark or light sauces directly in the boiling liquid.
