(a) Instantized flours, instant blending flours, and quick-mixing

standard of identity and is subject to the requirement for label
statement of ingredients prescribed for the corresponding kind of flour
by Sec. Sec. 137.105, 137.155, 137.160, 137.165, 137.175, 137.180, and
137.185, except that each such flour has been made by one of the
optional procedures set forth in paragraph (b) of this section, and is
thereby made readily pourable. Such flours will all pass through a No.
20 mesh U.S. standard sieve (840-micron opening), and not more than 20
percent will pass through a 200 mesh U.S standard sieve (74-micron
opening).
(b) The optional procedures referred to in paragraph (a) of this
section are:
(1) A selective grinding and bolting procedure or other milling
procedure, whereby controlled techniques are used to obtain a food too
fine to meet the granulation specification prescribed in Sec.
137.300(a) for farina.
(2) An agglomerating procedure, whereby flour that originally meets
the granulation specification prescribed in Sec. 137.105(a) has been
modified by further processing, so that a number of the individual flour
particles have been combined into agglomerates conforming to the
granulation specifications set out in paragraph (a) of this section.
(c) The name of each product covered by this section is the name
prescribed by the definition and standard of identity for the
corresponding kind of flour as referred to in paragraph (a) of this
section, preceded immediately and conspicuously by the words
``Instantized'', ``Instant blending'', or ``Quick-mixing''.
