MODIFIED STARCH, ITS METHOD OF MANUFACTURE AND THE SALAD DRESSING PRODUCED THEREWITH A modified non-waxy starch, the processes for making such starch and the salad dressing produced from the modified starch. The modified starch is etherified with an alkylene oxide to a degree of substitution between about 2 to about 3.5% and in a second step is cross-linked with not more than 0.1% cross-linking agent. The modified starch has a shear resistance of about 40 to about 80%, shear resilience of about 70 to about 100% and a gel strength of about 5.0 to about 32.0 ml.
