About
Potato starch flour is obtained by grinding the potatoes to a pulp and removing the fiber by washing with water. The dried product consists mainly of starch, but also contains some protein. Potato starch flour is used as a thickening agent. When heated to boiling, food added with a suspension of potato flour in water thickens quickly. Because the flour is made from neither grain nor legume, it is used as substitute for wheat flour in cooking by Jews during Passover, when grains are not eaten. Should not be confused with Potato Flour.
