Potato protein and potato fibre. Co-products of starch processing with new potential. 2: Potato fibres.

The chemical composition of pulp is described and its use as functional potato fibre in the food industry is discussed. Special attention is paid to its water-absorbing properties and texture effects (for instance in sausages) and reduced fat uptake during frying..
