A gummy starch is prepared by conmbining a starch with a saccharide and subsequently heating up the mixture. The gummy starch consists essentially of a water insoluble part with a chewable property and good dispersibility in oils and fats. A process for preparation of a gummy starch comprises the steps of combining a starch with a saccharide and heating up the mixture at such a temperature for such a time as to cause the saccharide to be caramelized to pick up water insoluble part. A chewable food raw material consists essentially of a gummy starch prepared by combining a starch with a saccharide and subsequently heating up the mixture. An oil and fat dispersant consists essentially of a gummy starch prepared by combining a starch with a saccharide and subsequently heating up the mixture.
