Extracted
from potatoes the potato starch is available in refined form with minimal
protein or fat content. It comes in clear white color powder with clarity,
neutral taste, long texture, high binding strength as well as minimal
tendency of foaming. With around 800 ppm phosphate that comes bound to
starch, it supports in enhancing viscosity and also provides solution
somewhat anionic character.
Features :
- Low gelatinization temperature with better viscosity that makes it
suitable for food and technical applications
- Finding use in different recipes like potato chips, bakery cream and
others
- Also useful in technical applications involving textile finishing &
sizing, wallpaper glue, paper coating & sizing
- Suitable for reducing cheese sweating and binding
