Abstract:

Indica rice, Taichung Sen 17, was physically modified by different cooking methods and particle sizes, to compare the difference of resistant starch content (RSC) and degree of gelatinization (DG) before and after storage. DG (71.00-94.80%) was significantly increased along with decreasing particle size for some of samples, whereas DG decreased after storage for most of samples. High pressure autoclave cooking method exhibited higher RSC (11.44-12.94%), close to those treated by an electric oven cooking method (9.77-12.88%). However, samples treated by the water bath cooking method had lower RSC (8.44-12.94%). Samples treated by electric oven and water bath cooking methods had higher RSC in the particle sizes of >1.40 mm and 300-150 µm before storage, whereas samples had higher RSC in the particle sizes of 1.40 mm-300 µm after storage.
