A process for the production of a dried instant mashed potato product comprises forming a moist mixture of potato flakes and granules, conditioning the mixture, remixing the mixture and drying. The potato flakes may be wetted and conditioned before being mixed with dry granules or dry granules may be mixed with dry flakes and the dry mixture is then wetted. In the conditioning step moisture equilibration and/or retrogradation occurs. The potato flakes may have been prepared by the use of sulphites, antioxidants or emulsifiers. The potato product may have a bulk density of 35-40 lbs./c. ft. and may form a stiff mash when mixed with cold or boiling water.
