Decolorization of soluble starch derivatives containing indigestible dietary fiber comprises hydrogenation under conditions such that the reducing sugar content is decreased by no more than 30%. <??>Independent claims are also included for: <??>(1) hydrogenated soluble starch derivatives having a ICUMSA color decreased by at least 50% and a reducing sugar content decreased by no more than 30%, both compared with the fiber-containing soluble starch derivatives from which they are prepared; <??>(2) hydrogenated soluble starch derivatives having a ICUMSA color of no more than 800 units and a reducing sugar content of at least 6% (dry basis) or having a ICUMSA color of no more than 400 units and a reducing sugar content of at least 2% (dry basis). |
