NOVATION® 2600 Functional Native Corn Starch by Ingredion

NOVATION® 2600 functional native starch has moderate process tolerance. It performs in food processes where traditional native starches cannot be used because of excessive heat and shear. NOVATION® 2600 functional native starch is compatible in the same food processes where modified starches are currently used. No special preparation or equipment is needed to use this starch. When NOVATION® 2600 functional native starch is cooked, it imparts a smooth, short, heavy bodied texture and does not set to a gel. The textural properties closely resemble modified starches; therefore, only minor adjustments in formulation should be necessary to replace modified starches in most food systems. NOVATION® 2600 functional native starch has a bland flavor and a unique flavor release in some food systems. The flavors of the food systems formulated with NOVATION® 2600 functional native starch are brighter and have greater intensity when compared to the same systems formulated with some modified starches.
