What it is
Powdered potato and corn starch are finely ground powders made from potatoes and corn. They are produced by separating the starch from the other components of the potato or corn kernel through washing and drying processes. These starches are commonly used as food ingredients.
Why it's used
Manufacturers use powdered potato and corn starch primarily as thickeners and stabilizers in a wide variety of foods. They help to improve texture, prevent ingredients from separating, and absorb moisture. You can find them in products like sauces, gravies, baked goods, and processed snacks.
Health notes

International bodies like JECFA and EFSA have evaluated starches, and they are considered safe when consumed as part of a balanced diet. There is no significant controversy regarding their safety at typical consumption levels.
Allergen info
