potato chip

First, the use of food additives in potato chips

The main ingredients of potato chips are potato flour, refined vegetable oil, starch, modified starch, corn flour, seasonings (white sugar, chicken powder, edible salt, sodium glutamate, corn starch, paprika, soy sauce powder, compound spices, sunset yellow, lemon yellow), edible salt, emulsifier, antioxidant.

In the ingredients, the main food additives used are mainly phosphate ester bis starch, acid treated starch, hydroxyphenyl di-starch phosphate, monostearate glyceride, calcium carbonate, citric acid, sodium D-isocorbate, terbutylhydroquinone, silicon dioxide, lemon yellow, caramel color and so on.

(a) Phosphate ester bisamyl

1, properties: white powder, gelatinization temperature is higher and wetness is low. ADI does not make special provisions (FAO/WHO, 1994). The paste viscosity of phosphate ester bis starch is highly stable against thermal, acid and shear effects.

2. Uses: Used as thickener and stabilizer. It can be used as a thickener for salad juice. Phosphate ester bisambar has high freezing stability and freeze-thaw stability, and is particularly suitable for applications in frozen foods. Frozen or freeze-thawed at low temperatures for a long time, the melting is repeated many times, and the food still maintains the original tissue structure and does not change. Acid modified starch is the main raw material for ice cream after being diester phosphate. The crosslinked starch dried by the drum increases the volume of the pastry, making the pastry crisp, soft and shelf-resistant.

3, dosage: China's "Food Additives Use Hygiene Standards" (GB2760-1996) stipulates: for lunch meat, the maximum use of phosphate starch is 0.5g/kg; for jam 1.0g/kg. FAO/WHO regulations: 5 g/kg for mayonnaise, canned palm oil (edible) (used alone or in combination with acidic, alkali-treated or decolored starch, mono-starch phosphate, bis starch phosphate, bisamma acetylate, 10 g/kg canned mushrooms, asparagus, green beans, carrots containing cream or other fats and oils, 20 g/kg canned sardines or sardine fish products (for fillers only); milk substitute powder 25 g/ kg (for hydrolyzed amino acid-based products used alone or in combination with phosphorylated bisammonose); 60 g/kg canned mackerel and bamboo shootfish (for fillers only); canned baby food (soybean-based products) 5 g/kg; broth and clear broth, quick-frozen fish strips and fish chunks (only those wrapped in bread flour and bread mop) 25 g/kg (used alone or in combination with other starches in products based on amino acids or hydrolyzed proteins).

It is also used as a solvent for oils and waxes, hygroscopic powder protectors and opaque opaque opacifiers. Glycerol fatty acid esters produced by the reaction of glycerol and fatty acids have monoesters, disastrous, triesterides, and triesterides are oils and fats, and have no emulsifying ability at all. Generally, a mixture of monoesters and diesters can be used, and can also be distilled and refined to obtain a monoester content of about 90% of the product. The fatty acids used can be stearic acid, palmitic acid, myristic acid, oleic acid, linoleic acid and the like. However, in most cases, a mixture of fatty acids with stearic acid as the main component is used.
