So, what is fecola di patata?
Fecola di patata, also known as potato starch, is a fine, white powder made from the dried roots of the potato plant. It is a gluten-free and versatile ingredient commonly used in cooking and baking as a thickener, stabilizer, and binding agent. Fecola di patata has a neutral flavor and is often added to sauces, soups, and gravies to give them a smooth and silky texture. It can also be used as a substitute for flour in gluten-free recipes or as a coating for fried foods to create a crispy and crunchy exterior. Due to its high starch content, fecola di patata is a popular ingredient in many processed foods and snacks.
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.
