Technical aspects
Native Tapioca Starch comes in the form of a tasteless white powder. It is obtained from cassava root by crushing, drying and grinding the tubers.
Native Tapioca Starch has a high water-binding capacity. It can be cooked for a long time without dissolving. In addition, foods made with this starch do not lose consistency even after freezing or reheating, as tapioca retains its thickening properties during these processes. Native Tapioca Starch is known for its excellent texture and its ability to regulate moisture and increase the volume of the final product. Because it does not affect flavor, it is widely used in the food industry for gels and to thicken foods. Native Tapioca Starch is also able to stabilize emulsions.
