The effect of cooling conditions on jet-cooked normal corn starch dispersions
نویسندگان
چکیده
When aqueous dispersions of normal corn starch are jet-cooked under excess steam conditions, the properties of the final product depend on the manner in which the cooked dispersion is cooled. Phase separation of amylose and amylopectin dramatically alters the final properties, and the extent of phase separation depends on the processing history of the sample. The aim of this study was to determine the effects of cooling rate, stirring rate and starch concentration on the rheology and microstructure of the cooled dispersion. A Rapid Visco Analyser was used to obtain a range of cooling profiles and stirring rates. Rheological measurements showed that samples that were stirred during cooling formed stronger gels than unstirred samples. Light microscopy revealed that after cooling, both irregular, amorphous particles and spherical or toroidal crystalline particles were observed in various proportions depending on starch concentration, cooling rate and stirring during cooling.

The influence of oil on the properties of slowly-cooled jet-cooked normal corn starch dispersions
Previous work has shown that when aqueous dispersions of normal corn starch are jet-cooked under excess steam conditions, the properties of the final product depend on the manner in which the cooked dispersion is cooled. Phase separation of the component molecules of starch alters the final properties, and the extent of phase separation depends on the cooling conditions. Both irregular, amorpho...
متن کاملJet-cooked high amylose corn starch and shortening composites for use in cake icings.
Butter cream is an all-purpose icing that is used to both ice and decorate cakes. Cream icings contain up to 40% shortening. As consumers become aware of the need to reduce fat in their diet, the demand for healthy, flavorful, and low-fat food increases. High-amylose corn starch was cooked in an excess-steam jet cooker in the presence of oleic acid. Amylose formed helical inclusion complexes wi...
متن کاملEffect of cooling of cooked white rice on resistant starch content and glycemic response.
Cooling of cooked starch is known to cause starch retrogradation which increases resistant starch content. This study aimed to determine the effect of cooling of cooked white rice on resistant starch content and glycemic response in healthy subjects. Resistant starch contents were analyzed on freshly cooked white rice (control rice), cooked white rice cooled for 10 hours at room temperature (te...

An experiment was conducted to compare different dietary vegetable sources of starch and protein on the coefficient of apparent total tract digestibility (CATTD) of energy and nutrients and performance of piglets from 29 to 60 d of age. The experiment was completely randomized with 6 treatments arranged factorially with 3 sources of starch (cooked-flaked corn, cooked-flaked rice, and pea starch...

The progressive geometric changes that occur in swelling of corn starch granules during heating throughout the range of gelatinization (63-72°C) and at higher temperatures when substantial amount s o f soluble starch are released from the granule were observed by scanning electron micro s copy (SEM). Corn starch granules beg in to swell radially, then undergo radial contraction and random tange...
