So, what is modifizierte weizenstärke?

Modifizierte Weizenstärke, also known as modified wheat starch, is a common food ingredient used for its thickening and binding properties. It is derived from wheat starch, which is chemically modified to improve its functionality in various food applications. This process alters the structure of the starch molecules, resulting in a more stable and consistent product that can withstand a wide range of processing conditions. Modified wheat starch is often used in processed foods such as sauces, dressings, and baked goods to improve texture, viscosity, and shelf life. It is also a popular ingredient in gluten-free products as a substitute for wheat flour.
