ABSTRACT:
According to the invention a method is provided for liquefying starch comprising the steps of treating the starch prior to or simultaneously with liquefying the starch to inactivate and/or remove the enzyme inhibiting composition present in the starch and form treated starch; adding .alpha.-amylase to the treated starch; and reacting the treated starch for a time and at a temperature effective to liquefy the treated starch. Effective means to treat the starch include the addition of a phytate degrading enzyme and heat treatment, optionally followed by filtration or centrifugation, of granular starch or a starch solution.
