So, what is modifierad potatisstärkelse?
Modifierad potatisstärkelse is a Swedish term that translates to "modified potato starch" in English. It is a food ingredient commonly used as a thickener, stabilizer, and binder in a wide range of food products, including sauces, soups, dressings, baked goods, and meat products. Modified potato starch is derived from potato starch through a series of physical and chemical processes that alter its properties, such as viscosity, gelatinization, and freeze-thaw stability. This versatile ingredient has excellent water-holding capacity, enhances texture and mouthfeel, and is gluten-free, making it suitable for use in various dietary restrictions.
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.
