Pasta & Noodles
Crafting Better Pasta and Noodles with Potato Starch
Developing high-quality pasta and noodles requires precise control of texture, hydration behaviour, and process stability. Manufacturers seeking to enhance firmness, elasticity, and cooking performance increasingly rely on potato starch in pasta and noodles as a clean, plant-based functional ingredient.
KMC’s potato starches provide rapid hydration, strong water binding, and a neutral flavour profile, supporting consistent product quality across instant, fresh, frozen, and glass-noodle formats.
Insights from KMC’s application work show how large starch granules promote fast water uptake and shorten cooking time, while our modified ranges help reduce retrogradation and maintain elasticity during chilled or frozen storage.
