Emulsifier, Modified starch, Stabiliser, Carrier, Thickener

In contrast to natural starch, chemically modified starch also swells in cold water and forms tough masses. Starch sodium octenyl succinate also has emulsifying properties and is able to keep foams stable. Because it does not release bound water even at very low temperatures, starch sodium octenyl succinate maintains the consistency and structure of foods even when frozen.
