Starches
Starch is a natural carbohydrate found in most plants, where it acts as an energy reserve. It consists of thousands of glucose units organised into linear amylose chains and branched amylopectin structures. Beyond its nutritional and energy contribution, starch provides valuable functional properties that make it an essential and highly versatile ingredient across a wide range of food applications.
