Effect of modified tapioca starch and xanthan gum on low temperature texture stability and dough viscoelasticity of a starch-based food gel

This work investigated the effect of modified tapioca starch and xanthan gum on dough viscoelasticity and texture stability during storage at 4 °C of starch sheets for Chinese shrimp dumplings. Hydroxypropylated starch and hydroxypropylated-crosslinked starch were used to substitute for tapioca starch in the control formulation, and xanthan gum was added to adjust the formulation. During storage, texture of the control became firmer due to amylopectin retrogradation confirmed by differential scanning calorimetry and X-ray diffraction. Conversely, gel sheets containing modified starches showed less texture change. Dough viscoelasticity of the formulations substituted by hydroxypropylated starch were much softer and easier to deform than that of the control one. Dough with hydroxypropylated-crosslinked starch was, however, stiffer and more strain-resistant. Moreover, the formulation comprising the mixture of both types of modified starches and xanthan gum gave dough viscoelasticity similar to that of the control, and provided gel sheet the least texture change. Consequently, this modified formulation could be beneficial for the application of frozen/chilled dumpling wrappers.

Techno‐functional properties of wheat flour‐resistant starch mixtures applied to breadmaking

Resistant starch can be used to reduce the availability of carbohydrates in baked products. In this study, the effect of type 4 resistant wheat starch (RS₄) on wheat flour dough and breads was evaluated. Wheat flour was substituted by RS₄ at 10%, 20% and 30% w/w (RS10, RS20 and RS30, respectively). Rheological and thermal behaviours of dough were evaluated. Besides, bread quality, starch digestibility and bread staling were analysed. All substituted dough exhibited viscoelastic behaviour but lower elastic and viscous moduli. Regarding to bread quality, specific volume and crumb texture were negatively affected in samples with RS₄. However, all samples were technologically acceptable. During storage, crumb hardening was observed in breads without and with RS₄ but amylopectin retrogradation was not particularly affected. The in vitro digestibility of bread with RS showed a lower release of reducing sugars and a lower estimated glycaemic index, suggesting a healthier profile for these breads.

Effect of damaged starch levels on flour-thermal behaviour and bread staling

The effect of the amount of damaged starch in two different flours (wheat and triticale) on the bread quality and its behaviour during storage has been analysed. Two wheat and one triticale flour cultivars were milled in a disc mill to obtain different levels of damaged starch. Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) and Rapid Visco Analyser (RVA) were used to characterize the flour properties and TA-XT2 textural analyses were made on breadcrumb. The effect of the damaged starch content on the bread firming, the amylopectin retrogradation and starch-pasting properties were studied in order to establish any relationship between damaged starch and bread staling. DSC analysis showed that the damaged starch content changed the thermal behaviour of flour–water mixtures: the higher the levels of damaged starch the lower the starch-gelatinization enthalpy and the higher the melting enthalpy of amylose–lipid complexes. The amount of amylopectin retrogradation and breadcrumb firming increased with the damaged starch content at the beginning of storage time; however, differences were decreasing at final storage time. The flour viscosity during pasting decreased as their damaged starch content increased.     

Gelatinization and Retrogradation Properties of Native and Hydroxypropylated Crosslinked Tapioca Starches with Added Sucrose and Sodium Chloride

The effects of sucrose and sodium chloride on the gelatinization and retrogradation of native and hydroxypropylated crosslinked tapioca starches were investigated by using Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). Hydroxypropylated crosslinked tapioca starches showed low gelatinization temperature and enthalpy compared to the native tapioca starch. Sucrose and sodium chloride increased the gelatinization temperatures of all starch samples. The enthalpy to melt retrograded amylopectin of hydroxypropylated crosslinked tapioca starches were low, compared to that of the native starch. Sucrose did not have much effect on retrogradation of the starch, while sodium chloride decreased retrogradation of all starch samples.     

The Use of Potato and Sweet Potato Starches Affects White Salted Noodle Quality

ABSTRACT Potato and sweet potato starches and derivatives thereof were used to substitute part of the wheat flour in white salted noodle (WSN) manufacture. The quality of the WSN obtained was compared with the quality of WSN made from wheat flour only. When up to 20% of wheat flour was replaced by acetylated potato starch and acetylated sweet potato starches, the cooking loss of WSN decreased, while the softness, stretchability, and slipperiness increased significantly. Native and hydroxypropylated starches did not exhibit these effects. It can be concluded that the substitution of part of wheat flour with acetylated starches strongly affects noodle-making and final noodle quality, and starch substitution can be used to change the performance of a given wheat flour for noodle making in a desired way.

Retrogradation of Starch Mixtures Containing Rice Starch

ABSTRACT: Different starches often coexist in food systems. Starch retrogradation is the primary reason for quality deterioration of a food system during storage. This article addresses the retrogradation behaviors of several starch mixtures containing normal rice starch (NRS). Potato starch, tapioca starch, waxy corn starch, hydroxypropylated potato starch, hydroxypropylated tapioca starch, and acetylated tapioca starch were mixed with NRS. Starch suspensions were gelatinized and the relative solid content, (S′) measured by pulsed nuclear magnetic resonance, was used to characterize the retrogradation behavior of starch systems. The retrogradation behaviors of starch mixtures can be divided into two categories according to the additive or non‐additive nature of S′, for which the concept “regional moisture content” was introduced.     

变性淀粉对非发酵面团冻融品质的影响

为了探究变性淀粉对非发酵面团冻融品质的影响,本研究比较了在添加马铃薯羟丙基二淀粉磷酸酯、木薯醋酸酯淀粉、木薯羟丙基淀粉与马铃薯醋酸酯淀粉后非发酵面团冻融品质的变化。结果表明：变性淀粉未能有效控制冻融面团的失水率,但冻融面团深层结合水相对含量均有所增加,凝胶能力下降,且不受变性淀粉添加量与种类的影响。冻融面团剪切力均随着变性淀粉添加量增加呈现“下降-上升”的趋势,且均低于对照组。变性淀粉添加量较少时基本能较好地改善熟面坯的质构特性,高添加量反而不利于熟面坯的质构特性。添加木薯醋酸酯淀粉不利于面团流变性的改善,而其余3 种变性淀粉在添加量较低（＜5%）时,有利于改善面团的流变特性。因此,变性淀粉在添加量较少时对非发酵面团冻融品质有一定的改良作用。     

Effect of Retrograded Waxy Corn Starch on Bread Staling

Waxy corn starch pastes (10%) were stored at 5 °C for up to 35 days, and the powder specimens of retrograded starches thus obtained were added to wheat flour for bread baking at a level of 5%. The effect of retrograded starch on the staling of bread was determined. The loaf which contained retrograded waxy corn starch, which was prepared by storing the 10% paste at 5 °C for 7 days, showed an increase in specific volume and the results of the sensory evaluation showed that it was very acceptable. During the storage of bread, the increase in firmness and decrease in degree of gelatinization were suppressed by adding retrograded waxy corn starch. The moisture content of bread crumbs did not relate to firmness. Added retrograded waxy corn starch decreased the final viscosity of flour. The crystalline region of retrograded waxy corn starch used for bread baking included longer chains from amylopectin which in raw starch occurred in the amorphous region.     

Potato flour as a functional ingredient in bread: evaluation of bread quality and starch characteristics

Potatoes have been added to bread for improvement of texture and moisture retention. The functional quality and starch digestibility in bread containing 5%, 10% or 15% potato flour were evaluated. Farinograph absorption of wheat and potato flour blends ranged from 59.0% to 77.7%. Bread with potato flour had significantly (P < 0.05) lower bread firmness during storage. There was a significant (P < 0.05) decrease in starch molecular weight as the level of potato flour increased. Inclusion of potato flour in these breads significantly (P < 0.05) increased the level of resistant starch (RS), while significantly (P < 0.05) decreasing the estimated glycemic index (eGI). Bread with no potato flour had 5.2% RS and an eGI of 95, while the bread with 15% potato flour had 11.3% RS and an eGI of 87. Overall, the addition of potato flour may reduce dough strength and loaf volume, but it reduced staling and increased resistant starch content of the bread.     

Impact of the addition of resistant starch from modified pea starch on dough and bread performance

The interest in the use of resistant starch (RS) for the development of new bakery products has significantly increased due to its ascribed physiological effects with proven health benefits. The objective of the present work was to analyse the effects of the wheat flour substitution by modified pea starch with high level of RS (PeaP) on breadmaking performance. The effects of PeaP on wheat dough functionality were evaluated by mixing/overmixing properties, texture profile analysis, viscometric profile and thermal properties. Bread quality was evaluated by physico-chemical parameters, crumb texture profile, digital image analysis, nutritional parameters and sensory evaluation. Flour substitution by PeaP up to 20% allowed keeping mechanical, extensional and viscometric parameters without significant hindering of dough machinability. Overdose of modified pea starch (30%) negatively affects dough mixing and overmixing behaviour. As a functional/prebiotic fibre, PeaP addition up to 10–20% of flour replacement entitles the formulation of wheat bread allowing a significant increase in the RS level (from 0.70 to 5.10%), delay/decrease in amylopectin retrogradation, with acceptable changes in bread quality up to 10–20% of flour replacement.     

Effects of cross-linked tapioca starches on batter viscosity and oil absorption in deep-fried breaded chicken strips

In this study, the effectiveness and feasibility of using various degrees of cross-linked tapioca starches in batter and breading formulations to reduce oil absorptions in deep fried chickens were investigated. Shear flow behaviour, water retention capacity (WRC), pick-up as well as cooked yield of the prepared batters were also examined. Flow curves showed that all studied batters were pseudoplastic, i.e. having shear thinning characteristics. In addition, it was found that the substitution of 20% (w/w) cross-linked starches for wheat flour in the batter formulation significantly reduced the consistency index and WRC of the batters. However, batter pick-up and cooked yield values were insignificantly affected. Oil uptake of fried chicken crusts was determined using differential scanning calorimetry due to its specific advantages over the conventional solvent extraction method. In comparison to the control (wheat) formulation, crusts of fried chicken samples obtained from the formulations containing 20% (w/w) cross-linked starch showed significantly lower oil content by at least 17% relative oil reduction. The highest relative oil reduction was found in the batter containing the highly cross-linked tapioca starch. Furthermore, an increase in water content in the batter formulations resulted in a reduction in the batter pick-up, cooked yield and oil absorption. The degree of cross-linking which in turn resulted in the limited starch granule disintegration is the predominant factor in the reduction of oil content for deep-fried battered food.
