Abstract: The present invention is directed to a flour-starch mixture that is capable of being converted into a flour-starch based food product that heats evenly from a frozen condition, when exposed to microwave energy. Optionally, the flour-starch based food product of this present invention is combined with a microwave susceptor to obtain enhanced crisping on the outside.The flour-starch based food product of the present invention is made from a flour-starch mixture comprising from about 85% to about 35% by weight flour, from about 15% to about 60% by weight high amylose starch, and from about 0.25% to about 5% by weight high amylopectin starch.The flour-starch based food product of the present invention is particularly useful in preparing consumer oriented microwaveable food products, where features such as palatability, even heating and even crisping are desired.
