What is potato flake flour?

Potato flake flour is a flake or fine powder product made from fresh potatoes through processes such as washing, peeling, slicing, pre-cooking, steaming, and mashing, followed by dehydration using a drum drying process. It retains the complete cellular structure of the potato, allowing for long-term preservation and maintaining its natural flavor. It is primarily used as an intermediate raw material in the food industry.

Compared to granulated potato flour, its production process is simpler and consumes less energy, but it has the disadvantage of high viscosity and a tendency to clump after rehydration. Potato flake flour is widely used in the processing of puffed foods, convenience foods, and nutritional foods, such as frozen foods, bread, fish bait, fast food, and baby food.
