Starch solutions were prepared for the five starches tested at a
concentration of 10 g/100 g (w/w on a dry basis). Each starch solution
was divided into two parts. One part was cooked by
increasing the temperature from 5 C to 45 C at a rate of 2 C/min
and holding at this temperature for 10 min. The other was cooked
by increasing the temperature from 45 C to 80 C at a rate of 2 C/
min. Changes in the starch viscosity were measured with a MCR101
rheometer (Anton Paar Ltd., Austria) during cooling.
