Ultratex 3 – Tapioca Starch

Ultratex 3

Ultratex 3 is a modified tapioca food starch. It has good mouth melt away characteristics and offers almost none of its own flavor. This makes it a great choice to thicken liquids without the application of heat and without altering the flavor profile or color of the original liquid. If the thickened liquid is left to dry, Ultratex 3 will lead to a thin crispy sheet. It shares many of the same properties of xanthan gum, but is much less viscous.
