PROMITOR™ Resistant Starch can be easily incorporated into a wide variety of products to give your consumers a varied source of fiber throughout the day, in product segments that include:
- Flour tortillas
- Corn chips
- Bread
- Ready-to-eat cereals
- Cookies
- Crackers
- Pasta
- Extruded snacks
Using Resistant Starch in Sheeted Snacks Production – a working example:
Resistant Starch is suitable for a number of manufacturing processes, including sheeted snacks and cracker production. In this instance, Resistant Starch is an excellent ingredient because:
- Doughs remain pliable and cohesive throughout sheeting, and display very similar handling attributes to traditional cracker formulas;
- It can enhance light and crispy textures without perceivable grittiness, and may reduce baking times through its reduced water-holding characteristics. All of this is achieved while maintaining traditional cracker appearance;
- The fiber survives the shear of dough-mixing and the sheeting process, meaning that a 15-30% replacement of cereal flour can achieve a ‘good source’ or an ‘excellent source’ of dietary fiber per 30g serving of finished product. (US example).
Taste for Yourself with a Product Sample
The results are compelling on paper, but the best way to experience the potential of PROMITOR™ Resistant Starch is to request a sample to try in your applications.
