AI Technical Summary
Existing starch-based snack foods are prone to nutritional imbalances, indigestion, and high levels of aged starch during processing, and also pose safety risks due to chemical additives.
Using molecular gastronomy and colloid technologies, through processes such as gelatinization, sol preparation, fermentation and foaming, and low-temperature curing and dehydration, porous and crispy composite gel embryos are prepared using gelatinizing dispersants, protein gel stabilizers, lipid gel stabilizers and foaming agents. Combined with quick-freezing and vacuum freeze-drying, an easily digestible and crispy starch-based snack food is formed.
It achieves the crispy texture and multi-layered taste of starch-based snack foods, reduces the content of aged starch, reduces fat intake, avoids chemical additives, and is nutritionally balanced and easy to digest.
