I don't mind a little thickener in sauces, not to add body or present a thicker 'looking' sauce but to reduce separation when poured onto food. obviously using natural thickeners like carrot or onion or other starchy vegetable matter work but they don't always give the desired effect and I am also referring to my own home made (for myself and a few friends) to consume, I'm not selling to the fickly, fussy public.
