The fried meatballs are delicious with potato starch.

The stickiness of potato starch will be better. When frying the meatballs, it can wrap all the meatballs without splitting or cracking. In this way, people will still have something in their mouths when they eat it. Very good texture and elasticity. Starch is a polysaccharide, and making starch is a way for plants to store energy.

Starch can be regarded as a high polymer of glucose. In addition to food, starch is used industrially to make dextrin, maltose, glucose, alcohol, etc. It is also used to prepare printing paste, sizing of textiles, and paper. Gluing, pressing of pharmaceutical tablets, etc. It can be extracted from starchy substances such as corn, sweet potatoes, wild acorns and kudzu.

Characteristics of potato starch

Large particle size: Different varieties of potato starch have different particle sizes. Normally, the particle size of potato starch is generally 35 to 105 μm. The oval shape is generally potato starch with large particle size, and the round shape is potato starch with small particle size. Given certain nutritional conditions and environmental factors, the particle size of potato starch will undergo a series of changes, resulting in a particle size larger than that of oat starch, purple potato starch and wheat starch.

High viscosity: The viscosity of potato starch depends on the degree of polymerization of its amylose. Experiments were conducted to compare the paste viscosity of potato starch, corn starch, oat starch and wheat starch. Experimental research showed that potato starch The content of chain starch is as high as more than 79%. The average peak value of potato starch reaches 2988BU, which is higher than the peak viscosity of corn starch, oat starch and wheat starch.
