American Key Food Products Potato Granules

American Key Food Products Potato Granules are created during a process where the potato cells remain almost intact, which leads to a very low proportion of starch. Potato granules can be soluble at high temperatures when used as a thickening agent. They are particularly useful in the food service industry as they have no water separation, stay firm longer, keep their elasticity longer on the buffet line, and have creamier and smoother mouthfeel.

Applications

Potato Granules can be used in snack products, but the low starch content gives granules a distinctive potato flavor, short structure and low expansion.

Potato Granules can be used in cooked and sterilized meat applications.  This leads to a reduced heating cycle due to the faster heat impact, which in turn, results in a shorter process and thus a reduction in energy costs.
