Starch (Modified Cassava Flour)
Modified cassava flour is a modified starch made using selected cassava as raw material. This starch has been pregelatinized naturally by cooking with a certain temperature. Therefore, it can be gelatinized without the use of hot water.
Benefits:
- Instant
- Easy to absorb water so it can be used as filter and thickener (high viscosity)
- Making product more rise and crisp
- Making dough easier and smoother
- Making product more quickly cooked, less oil & time needed
Application areas:
- Coated peanut: as a glue and sowing flour, makes the shell more rise and crisp
- Snack, cracker: as a glue flour, makes the dough smoother and less sticky, and as a result the product becomes more rise and crisp
- Seasoning powder (fried food): as a glue flour for coating dough, makes product more puffing, crunch, and crispy
- Sausage, nugget, meat ball, pempek/fishcake: as a glue flour for the coating dough, makes product more rubbery
- Sauces, gravy, mayonnaise: as a thickener, makes the manufacturing process more efficient due to the instant property of the pregelatinized starch
- Other applications: mosquito coils, charcoal briquettes, textiles
