POTATO FLAKES ( Tepung Kentang)
Natural Potato from Germany
Potato flakes are cooked mashed potatoes with most of the water removed. The most common commercial process is drum drying. The potatoes are washed, peeled, cut into slices and steam cooked until a potato slurry is formed. The slurry is put in a heated drum, where it is dehydrated. The resulting dried mixture is scraped from the drum with a mechanical "doctor knife." The dried potatoes are now in the form of flakes.
