ABSTRACT:
Waxy, small granule starch of high spreadability, and waxy, large granule starch which is capable of forming an exceptionally clear and bright paste, are simultaneously produced by steeping waxy barley grain for a period of at least 12 hours in an aqueous solution containing sulfur dioxide at a temperature of 45.degree.-55.degree. C so as to swell the grain and extract soluble protein contained within said grain, water washing and milling said steeped grain, separating the starch from fibers and protein, suspending said starch in water to form a suspension containing less than 15% wt solids, permitting larger granules to settle for a period of at least 2 hours and recovering a larger granule fraction, said larger granules being characterized by an average particle size of greater than 10.mu., and breaking the remaining suspension and recovering therefrom a smaller granule fraction, said small granules being characterized by an average particle size of from 2.5 to 10.mu..
