Description
Potato flour is a fine powder made by peeling, cooking, and drying potatoes, which are then ground into a smooth texture. It is valued for its gluten-free nature, making it suitable for individuals with gluten intolerance or celiac disease. This flour is known for its ability to absorb moisture effectively, which enhances the texture of baked goods and helps thicken soups, sauces, and gravies. In baking, potato flour contributes to moist and soft textures in gluten-free recipes such as bread, cakes, and pancakes. Additionally, potato flour contains some nutrients found in potatoes, including vitamin C and potassium, although it is lower in fiber compared to other potato products. Its versatility and ability to improve texture make it a valuable ingredient in gluten-free and traditional cooking alike.
