Organic Potato Starch Powder

What is Organic Potato Starch Powder?

Organic Potato Starch is meticulously produced from 100% pure, organically grown potatoes. The process involves washing, grinding, and then extracting the starch granules from the potato cells. These granules are then carefully purified through a series of washing and drying steps to remove proteins, fats, and fibers, resulting in a fine, white, and neutral-flavored powder. The organic certification guarantees that the potatoes are cultivated and processed without synthetic pesticides, herbicides, GMOs, or artificial additives, aligning with strict clean-label and natural ingredient standards.

Organic Potato Starch is highly valued for its superior functional properties compared to many other starches:

• Exceptional Thickening Power: It provides excellent viscosity and a smooth texture at relatively low concentrations, making it highly efficient.
• Good Gelling & Binding: It forms clear, stable gels and effectively binds ingredients, crucial for various food systems.
• Neutral Flavor & Color: Its bland taste and white color ensure it doesn’t interfere with the sensory profile or appearance of your final product.
• High Swelling Power: It absorbs a significant amount of water and swells considerably upon heating.
• Stability: It offers good stability under various processing conditions, though its sensitivity to high shear and low pH should be noted.

With its robust performance, clean-label appeal, and gluten-free status, our Organic Potato Starch is the ideal ingredient for manufacturers seeking to enhance texture, consistency, and stability in a wide array of food and beverage applications.
