Acetylated adipic acid-crosslinked tapioca starch and method for producing the same

摘要

PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide processed tapioca starch, the starch made from multiple cropping cassava and its processed starch using the tapioca starch stable in supply and selling price, in which, even when used as starchy material for processed foods, such as cracker made from the starch, coating powder for Tatsuta age (deep-fried) food, fishery paste products, and noodle products, the same texture as the potato starch is obtained, and can be used as potato substitution, and also excellent in resilience to change of the texture with a passage of time compared with the potato starch.SOLUTION: The material is the acetylated adipic acid cross-linked tapioca starch in which the adipic acid group content does not exceed 0.01 mass% by weakly etherifying the tapioca starch with an acetyl group and the adipic acid group, in amylograph analysis with 6 mass%, the acetylated adipic acid cross-linked tapioca starch is obtained wherein the peak viscosity is 800 BU or more and the breakdown obrtained by deducting the bottom viscosity from the peak viscosity, is 150-500 BU.
