Thai Jasmine rice varieties, such as Khao Dawk Mali 105 are very popular and
widely gained acceptance in Thailand due to their specific characteristics, particularly flavor and unique
aroma. Rice flour has many unique attributes and non allergenic properties. It is cholesterol and gluten
free. Several studies have been attempted to improve quality of baked products,
such as breads, cakes, and cookies, which were formulated with KDML 105 rice flour alone or
combination with other flours substitutes or novel ingredients. Rice flour preparation is one of the important
physical characteristics that affect to quality of rice cake. The rice flour with varying preparation has
different physicochemical properties, which cause differences in functional properties of the end
products. Many researchers reported that the HMT process can decrease peak viscosity and
breakdown but increase gelatinization temperature. The low breakdown value indicated that the starch
granule in the rice flour was more durable to heating and shearing. From this reason, the HMT can be use in the baked goods.
