So, what is amidon transformés?
"Amidon transformés" is a French term that translates to "modified starches" in English. This ingredient is commonly used in the food industry as a thickening, stabilizing, or binding agent. Modified starches are derived from natural starches like corn, tapioca, or potato, which are chemically altered to improve their functionality. These modifications can include physical or chemical treatments such as acid hydrolysis, cross-linking, or esterification. Modified starches are a versatile ingredient that can be found in a wide range of food products, including baked goods, sauces, soups, and beverages.
We've built a vegan ingredients scanner that classifies food ingredients as "vegan", "non-vegan", or "potentially vegan".
It allows you to avoid non-vegan ingredients - just take a picture of a product's ingredient list, and the app tells you if the product is vegan or not.
