Abstract
The subject invention relates to a cold water swelling starch composition which is comprised of a blend of at least two distinct starch components. One starch component is an essentially amylose free starch, while the other is a starch containing at least 20 percent amylose. The starch components are heat processed together under conditions that impart cold water swelling characteristics. The starch composition is useful in instant and convenience food formulations.
