General
- Modified
starch is a food additive which is prepared by treating starch or starch
granules, causing the starch to be partially degraded.
- Modified
starch is used as a thickening agent, stabilizer, or an emulsifier.
Process
- Starches
may be modified to increase their stability against excessive heat,
acid, and freezing; to change their texture; or to lengthen or shorten
gelatinization time.
- A
modified starch may be an instant starch which thickens and gels without
heat; or a cook-up starch, such as Colflo 67, which must be cooked like
regular starch.
Technology
- Starch
technology has evolved from a basic separation process that extracts the
starch from the plant into a range of sophisticated processes that yield
diverse specialty ingredients with unique capabilities.
- Microwave
technology is emerging as a potential technique in Green Chemistry for
organic synthesis in view of solvent free synthesis.
- Very
little work has been carried out on the modification of starch by
microwave technique.
Application
-
Pre-gelatinized starch is used to thicken instant desserts, allowing the
food to thicken with the addition of cold water or milk.
- Starch is
a major source of calories in grains and tubers, and foods made from
them.
- When
starch is added to products as an ingredient, however, it is the
functional properties of the starch that are usually important, not the
calories.
