It’s a modified starch that is both hydroxypropylated and phosphate cross‑linked to improve stability and texture in foods; its E‑number is E1442.
How to do e1412?
E1412 (distarch phosphate) is made by crosslinking plant starch with phosphate groups (e.g., using phosphorus oxychloride or sodium trimetaphosphate), creating a heat-, acid-, and shear‑stable thickener/stabiliser used in sauces, soups, and fillings.
What is the e number for acetylated distarch phosphate?
