Potato starch is a white powder produced by finely grinding and drying peeled potatoes. It is typically used as a thickening agent or stabilizing agent in various recipes and cooking techniques, such as sauces and batters. Potato starch has a neutral flavor and is gluten-free, making it an ideal substitution for wheat flour in gluten-free recipes.
Ingredients
Potato starch is made up of the naturally occurring carbohydrate polysaccharide amylopectin, which is found in the tubers of potatoes. Amylopectin serves as a major storage form of glucose in many plants and can consist of anywhere from 12-22% of potato's dry weight. Additionally, potato starch contains small amounts of proteins, minerals and vitamins.
