What it is

Pea potato starch is a blend of starches derived from peas and potatoes. These starches are extracted from the respective plants and then processed to create a fine powder. The combination aims to leverage the unique properties of both pea and potato starch.

Why it's used

Manufacturers use pea potato starch primarily as a thickener and stabilizer in food products. It helps improve texture and mouthfeel, and can also act as a binder. It is commonly found in snacks like chips and pretzels, as well as in some baked goods and sauces.

Health notes

Pea potato starch is generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA for use in food. It is a source of carbohydrates and is typically consumed in moderate amounts as part of a balanced diet. International bodies like JECFA have evaluated starches, and their safety is well-established. No significant health concerns are associated with its typical consumption.

Allergen info

Pea potato starch is not derived from any of the nine major allergens recognized by the FDA. It is also gluten-free.
