Potato starch

Potato starch is the extracted starch from potatoes.

The starch turns to a light, powdery, flour-like consistency once it has dried out.

Potato starch contains typical large oval spherical granules ranging in size from 5 to 100 μm.It is a refined starch, containing minimal protein or fat.

Potato starch contains approximately 800 ppm phosphate bound to the starch; this increases the viscosity and gives the solution a slightly anionic character, a low gelatinisation temperature of approximately 60 °C (140 °F),[1] and high swelling power.

These properties are used in food and technical applications.
