Abstract
A method for the production of resistant starch comprising acidifying unmodified starch to an optimal pH with an acid-alcohol mixture to convert the unmodified starch to resistant starch when at a reaction temperature, heating the acidified unmodified starch to about the reaction temperature, and maintaining the acidified unmodified starch close to about the reaction temperature until the resistant starch has been obtained while maintaining a whiteness level within a predetermined range. Resistant starches and food products manufactured therefrom are also disclosed.
