N-Zorbit M is a commonly used type of maltodextrin. As with all maltodextrins, N-Zorbit M is a fascinating ingredient that can turn oil and fat into a powder. It is also used to thicken and stabilize high-fat ingredients, and help other ingredients disperse by preventing clumping.
N-Zorbit M, is a sweet polysaccharide produced from starch, corn, wheat, tapioca or potato through partial hydrolysis and spray drying. Its natural subtle sweet flavor is often used to replace sugar in recipes because it has fewer calories than sugar and is easily absorbed and digested by the body in the form of glucose. N-Zorbit M also helps lock in aromas, making dishes more fragrant.
