“…A reduction and delay in paste peak viscosity after pasting of cereal starches for a short time (< 15 min) with added fatty acids has also been reported for rice starch pasted with added stearic or linoleic acid (Zhou et al, 2007); maize starch pasted with added myristic, palmitic (Raphaelides & Georgiadis, 2006) or stearic acid et al, 2011;Raphaelides & Georgiadis, 2006); wheat starch pasted added with caprylic acid, lauric acid, myristic acid, palmitic, stearic, oleic or linolenic acid (Tang & Copeland, 2007). The reduced and delayed paste peak viscosity after pasting cereal starches with added fatty acids for a short time was hypothesised to result from interaction of the added lipids with starch granules through: formation of a layer of amylose-lipid complexes on the granule surface (Eliasson, Finstad, & Ljunger, 1988);…”
