Although the word malt is in the name it is not derived from any
gluten-containing ingredient. Maltodextrin is a purified, concentrated,
non-sweet nutritive mixture prepared as a white powder or concentrated
solution by partial hydrolysis of corn starch, potato starch or rice
starch with safe and suitable acids and enzymes. It is used as an
anti-caking and free-flowing agent, formulation aid, processing aid,
bulking agent, stabilizer and thickener, or surface-finishing agent in a
variety of foods.
