Potato starch (1kg & 5kg)

Light, versatile and highly functional - a key ingredient for gluten free baking.

Potato starch is a fine, white starch extracted from potatoes. With its excellent water binding and gelatinisation properties, it’s one of the most useful ingredients for building texture in gluten free recipes.

When heated with water, potato starch swells and gelatinises, helping to create a soft, cohesive crumb and contributing to the structure of gluten free bread and other baked goods. It can also help retain moisture, making it particularly useful when building a balanced gluten free flour blend.

But its uses go well beyond baking. Potato starch makes an excellent thickener for sauces, gravies and fillings, producing a smooth, glossy finish. It is also fantastic as a dry coating or dredge, where it helps create an exceptionally crisp, light crust when fried.
