Aspekty techniczne

Potato Flakes come in the form of yellow to cream-colored flakes with a characteristic potato smell and taste. They have a creamy, floury texture. To produce the raw material, the potatoes are boiled, mashed and crushed on the surface of a drum. They are then dried and scraped from the drum.

Potato Flakes are used as a thickener and binding agent. 100 grams of flakes mixed with 500 ml of water at 75ºC produces a non-sticky, fluffy mass that is reminiscent of mashed potatoes and has a distinctive potato flavor.

Foodcom S.A. offers two types of Potato Flakes: Potato Flakes without additives and Potato Flakes with additives. The ingredients of Potato Flakes with additives are: mono- and diglycerides of fatty acids (E471), diphosphates (E450), citric acid (E330), antioxidants (E304), sodium pyrosulfite (E223) and turmeric.
