Abstract
Rice flour compositions having a Peak Viscosity of from about 4 RVU to about 130 RVU. In one embodiment, the rice flour compositions have a Final Viscosity of from about 4 RVU to about 220 RVU. Preferably, the compositions have a WAI of from about 2.6 to about 9. In a preferred embodiment, the Peak Viscosity of the rice flour compositions is ≦about 55(WAI)-145. The compositions can be used to produce food products such as fabricated sheeted snacks, extruded products, sauces, coatings for fried foods, dog foods, dog biscuits, baby foods and breads. The preferred doughs formed from the inventive rice flour composition are sheetable and elastic, and fabricated snacks made from the doughs have the desired taste and texture characteristics. A dry blend for a preferred fabricated snack comprises from about 2% to about 100%, preferably from about 3% to about 33%, most preferably from about 4% to about 17%, of the rice flour composition.
