Standard Granules

Category:

Standard potato flakes are among the most well-known and widely used potato products available. Their colour can vary as per the variety of potato and ingredients in the flakes and when reconstituted, have the dry, mealy texture and delicious flavor that consumers expect from freshly cooked mashed potatoes. They belong atop any list of all-purpose ingredients for use in food service, bakery and general food manufacturing.

Description

Like potato flakes, granules are prepared using top-quality sliced, cooked, and dried potatoes. The production process involves milling the flakes to achieve the desired granular texture, resulting in individual or small aggregates of potato cells. This granular structure increases the product’s bulk density and shipping economy; potato granules also reconstitute exceptionally well thanks to the cell-wall toughening that occurs during multiple cycles of cooking and partial rehydration involved in their production.

Additional information
