ABSTRACT FOOD PRODUCT AND METHOD OF MANUFACTURE A process of manufacturing a starch-based food item or product. The process comprises the steps of providing a mixture of comminuted material, with the material comprising at least about 20% starch by weight of mixture on a dry basis; hydrating the mixture to form a blend, the mixture being hydrated sufficiently to provide pressure formability to the blend; pressure forming the blend to form individual pieces; and heating the thus formed pieces at a high humidity and at a pressure above about 0.5 psig for a time sufficient to gelatinize a major portion of the starch. A manufactured food product is further provided which comprises a particle of food containing filler and starch, said starch being present in an amount of at least about 20% by weight of starch plus filler on a dry basis, said starch and filler being originally in the form of commi- nuted material; said food particle being bound together by gelatinized starch with said starch being at least about 95% gelatinized and less than about 5% degraded.
