This process begins with the potatoes being thoroughly rinsed with water. The cleaned potatoes are mechanically crushed to release the starch grains gathered from the cull pile consisting of waste streams and any processed potato surplus. Workers use flume water to remove any dirt particles. A sharp blade similar to a hammer mill or saw crushes the clean potatoes.
At this point in the process, chemicals such as sulfur dioxide are used by workers to prevent oxidation or color changes. This process also eliminates skins and fiber from what now resembles mashed potatoes. Now the starch can be separated by workers who also filter out any soluble material.
A few more purification methods later, the potato is dewatered by workers, then dried to achieve the final product. A good rule of thumb is that you need about four times as many potatoes as you want flour. Peel the potatoes with a peeler, then place them into a pot. Cook the potatoes in gently boiling water until a fork stuck inside them comes out clean, then mash them.

However, potato starch is a well-known thickener used for preparing delicious condiments and dishes which need heavier consistency. Usually, these food items include sauces, gravies and soups.
Potato starch is also used in other recipes like noodles, hotdog sausages, potato chips, bakery cream and wine gums. It can bring in either a crispy texture or a thicker consistency. In certain desserts like cakes and pies, it is used as toppings or glazing. It is especially useful in some gluten-free baking.
On the other hand, potato flour can be used for any recipe involving potatoes to enhance its taste. Along with gluten-free baking, you can also use it in general baking by combining it with other typical flours.
