So, what is almidón oxidado?
Almidón oxidado is a modified starch commonly used in food processing. It is produced by treating native starch with a combination of heat and chemicals, resulting in a product that has improved stability, solubility, and thickening properties. Almidón oxidado is often added to foods as a thickener, stabilizer, or emulsifier, and it can be found in many processed products such as sauces, soups, and baked goods. Because of its versatility and functionality, almidón oxidado is a popular ingredient in the food industry, making it an essential component for many manufacturers.
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.
