Pea starch of the Emsland Group is extracted from regionally grown yellow peas. Pea starch is by nature a gelling starch due to its elevated amylose content. Amylose is a starch polymer that consists mainly of linear chains leading to fast and firm gelling. Next to native pea starch, the Emsland Group has developed a line of modified pea starches with properties that fulfill requirements of different food applications such as glass noodles, cheese, confectionery, meat analogues, seafood, potato products and food coating.
