Dried products of external-starch-containing fruit or vegetable concentrates are prepared wherein the products can be reconstituted with hot or cold aqueous liquids to form fruit pulps or vegetable pulps. The dried products are made by roller drying of external-starch-containing fruit and/or vegetable concentrates and comminuting to make flakes. The flakes are agglomerated with fruit concentrates or vegetable concentrates to make an agglomerate. The agglomerate is steamed and simultaneously heat treated or, alternatively, gently dried and then heat treated, to the desired final water content.
