Food Texturizers
Because of their ability to bind water and improve texture while being 100% vegetable-based and non-GMO, Ecovia Biopolymers are a “natural” as food additives and preservatives.
They have been shown to enhance the texture of food products in a variety of ways including:
- enhancing the rheological and thermal properties of wheat dough
- reducing oil uptake during deep-fat frying
- helping thicken sauces
- improving the consistency of soups
- creating a smoother “mouthfeel” in dairy products like yogurt and ice cream
Additionally, our biopolymers’ ability to retain moisture can extend the shelf life of perishable foods, making them a valuable ingredient in food preservation.
