Product Highlights

PURE-GEL® Stabilized Starches Compared to other typical cook-up starches, PURE-GEL® modified starches hydrate easily and impart high viscosity. These starches are designed to provide stable viscosity in the presence of extended heat, acid and shear conditions. For processed meat applications, the PURE-GEL® products provide excellent economical benefits including increased water-holding capacity, moisture management and improved yields at a reduced hydration temperature. In dairy applica- tions, the PURE-GEL® starches are utilized to suspend solids, enhance mouthfeel and provide stable viscosity in refrigerated conditions. PURE-GEL® products are easily hydrated in high-fat sauce systems and provide steam table stability for gravies and sauces. For thermally-processed fruit fillings, the low hot viscosity results in reduced back pressure and better fruit integrity.

Features

PURE-GEL® modified starches are a family of unique cook-up starches that gelatinize at lower temperatures and reach maximum viscosity with lower thermal input. Also unique to the PURE-GEL® line is the inherent lower hot paste viscosity and excellent stability from retrogradation. The range of PURE-GEL® starch options enables the formulator to match product and process requirements with the appropriately designed starch. The properly selected starch provides both thickening and processing stability. It also possesses the functional properties necessary to endure repeated freeze/thaw cycles or long-term refrigerator storage. For processed meat applications, PURE-GEL® starches provide excellent economic benefits including increased water-holding capacity, moisture management and improved yields at a reduced hydration temperature. In dairy applications, PURE-GEL® starches are utilized to suspend solids, enhance mouthfeel and provide stable viscosity in refrigerated conditions. PURE-GEL® products are easily hydrated in high-fat or low pH formulations and provide steam table stability for gravies and sauces. For thermally-processed fruit fillings, the low hot viscosity controls back pressure and helps maintain fruit integrity.
