Abstract
Dehulled and degermed dry-milled corn products are refined by mixing for a period of not more than 4 hours at ambient temperature dehulled and degermed corn containing starch and protein with water to form an aqueous slurry, treating the slurry with alkali, and subjecting the alkali containing slurry to high intensity mixing. Sodium sulfite may be present in the alkali containing slurry. A high-quality starch then is recovered.
