Product Description
- Standard potato flakes are produced from fresh potatoes through a series of steps: peeling, washing, slicing, pre-cooking, cooling, cooking, mashing, and drum-drying.
- The final product is typically bright white and has a dry, powdery texture after rehydration, resembling freshly cooked and mashed potatoes.
- Potato flakes are versatile and commonly used in dining, baked goods, and various food manufacturing processes.

Rehydration
- For ideal rehydration of instant mashed potatoes, it’s recommended to use cold milk mixed with water up to 77°C (171°F).
- This method helps achieve a smooth, powdery texture.
- It’s important to avoid using boiling water for rehydration because it can cause the cells to rehydrate too quickly, leading to cell rupture and resulting in a viscous texture.
