Modified starch

Modified starch, also known as starch derivative, is starch that has been changed to have certain properties. Common properties are the starch being stable when exposed to heat or to acid, or higher reaction to frosting and defrosting. Modified starch is a food additive. It is only declared as such if it has been changed chemically. Food additives E1400 to E1451 are modified starch.
