Overview

High-performance inulin substitute for fats.

It is a fibrous carbohydrate extracted from roots, such as tubers and rhizomes. Just like basic inulin, it is normally extracted from chicory, but in this type of high-performance inulin, small molecules have been removed and, thus, the slight sweetness of basic inulin.

Suitable for making viscous products with a manipulable waxy texture. Can be used hot or cold.

On top, it is an important source of fiber with positive effects on cholesterol levels and 0% fat. It can be used as a thickening agent on vegan and vegetarian diets.

It is gluten free, suitable for celiacs. Country of origin: Spain.

Characteristics and uses:

It is presented in fine powder.
