Inulin
Industrial Applications
Inulin is widely used in the food industry as a prebiotic fiber and sugar substitute. Its slightly sweet taste and functional similarity to sugar, fat, and flour make it valuable in a variety of food products, including baked goods, beverages, and dairy items. Its creamy texture is especially beneficial in enhancing the mouthfeel of yogurt, ice cream, and other dairy products.
Physical Properties
Inulin is a naturally occurring carbohydrate that is water-soluble and forms a creamy, viscous solution. It is relatively stable under normal processing conditions, has a mildly sweet taste, and functions as a soluble dietary fiber, contributing to the texture and nutritional profile of food products.
