Abstract: The present invention provides a novel method for making a modified soy flour feed which is useful as a protein source in the diets of animals, particularly in the diet of young animals. The method for producing the modified soy flour feed, referred to hereinafter as "MSF feed", comprises the following steps: combining soy flour, sugar and liquid to provide a mixture; gelatinizing the soy flour in the mixture; then reacting yeast with the mixture preferably at a temperature of from about 60.degree. F. to about 125.degree. F. for a time sufficient to reduce the allergenic properties of the soy flour; and terminating the chemical reactions. Preferably, the yeast is added to the gelatinized mixture at a weight which is from about 0.25 to about 15%, by weight, of the combined soy flour-sugar weight. Unlike conventional soy flour, the MSF feed produced by this process does not induce diarrhea, poor growth or weight loss associated with an allergic response.

Abstract: Leavened yeast dough products obtain a long durability in a frozen condition by omitting using in the preparation thereof fermentable carbohydrates, but the formation in situ of such fermentable carbohydrates satisfactory to leaven the dough is ensured by adding one or more amylases to the dough. Upon freezing the activity of the amylase ceases and the concentration of fermentable carbohydrates falls to such a low value that the proteinase forming activity of the yeast actually ceases. A possibly desired brown-coloring of the baked product may be ensured by the addition of amylases with an activity at a relatively high temperature.

Specialized methods and systems for producing and processing masa dough having a germinated fraction are required as a consequence of the unique consistency and higher fiber content of the masa dough mixture.
