Selection skills of sweet potato powder
1, when buying sweet potato powder, don't just look at the bright and transparent ones. Because high-quality sweet potato powder is made of sweet potato starch, there will be more impurities in it, which is not so transparent and bright. This is also one of the characteristics of sweet potato powder. If the color looks wrong, some additives such as gelatin are often added to make the surface of sweet potato powder look modern and aesthetic, but the taste is not good at all.
2. High-quality sweet potato powder is actually sweet potato starch, which smells tasteless. There is no special fragrance. If the sweet potato powder you bought has a strange smell, it may be added with essence to cover up some smells. If there is still some strange smell of chemicals, it will certainly be worse. Never buy it.
