Claims
- 1. Method for the preparation of a starch hydrolysis product-containing mixture having a dextrose equivalent of 5 to 10 which mixture has the property of forming together with water, white, glossy thermoreversible gels having a neutral taste, which gels are stable to freezing and defrosting and the consistency of which gels may be varied from pasty to cutting-hard depending upon the proportion of water contained in the gel, comprising mixing together two starch products which in the admixture have an average dextrose equivalent of 5 to 10, the starch products being of respective degrees of polymerization differing each from the other by at least ten times and each of the starch products being branched and at least one of the starch products being a starch hydrolysis product.
- 2. Method according to claim 1, in which the starch products of higher degree of polymerization are selected from the group consisting of native and derivatized starches of vegetable origin, microbial polysaccharides and pectins and degradation products of the foregoing and the starch products of lower degree of polymerization are starch hydrolysis products.
