Fifty percent of fresh rice flour was substituted with the
selected annealed rice (AR) starch or HMT rice starch
(HR), and compared to untreated rice (UR) starch. This
proportion of flour and starches was selected since
preliminary experiment showed that a minimum 50%
substitution of rice flour with rice starch whether treated or
untreated, was needed to change the properties of flour
significantly. Flour of fresh and aged rice grains served as
control.
