Potato Flakes

Potato Flakes are produced from fresh potatoes and have cold swelling properties. Potato Flakes are suitable for products with a pulpy consistency, such as thick soups or gravies. Potato Flakes can also be used in snack applications, providing crispiness and expansion properties of the finished products. Instant mashed potatoes are potatoes that have been through an industrial process of cooking, mashing and dehydrating to yield a packaged convenience food that can be reconstituted by adding hot water or milk, producing a close approximation of mashed.
