Description

Pea Starch is a versatile food ingredient derived from the processing of dried peas. Starch is low in fat and high in complex carbohydrates and dietary fiber. It has no gluten and is well-suited for gluten-free baked goods, coatings, and binders.

Pea Starch is an excellent source of resistant starch, which can help regulate blood sugar levels, improve digestion, and promote satiety. It is also rich in vitamins and minerals such as iron, zinc, and potassium, which are essential for maintaining a healthy body.

Due to its unique properties, starch is used extensively in the food industry as a thickener, stabilizer, and gelling agent. It is often used in the production of noodles, soups, sauces, and fruit fillings. Pea starch can also be used to improve the texture and shelf life of baked goods.

Besides its role in the food industry, starch is also used in non-food applications like textiles and cosmetics. In the textile industry, pea starch is used as a natural sizing agent to keep fabrics stable and prevent shrinkage. In cosmetics, it is used as a thickener and emulsifier in creams and lotions.

Starch is a sustainable and Eco-friendly alternative to other starches derived from less environmentally-friendly sources, such as corn or potatoes. Peas are easy to grow, require less water, and can be grown in marginal soil. This makes pea starch an attractive choice for food manufacturers who want to reduce their environmental impact and make more sustainable products.
