Abstract
ABSTRACT
Starch-lipid composites are a new category of fat replacers. The physicochemical properties of reconstituted corn starch and soybean oil composites (CSSBOC) were evaluated and compared with the properties of reconstituted jet-cooked corn starch (JCCS). Gel firmness, thermal properties, and hot pasting properties at two pH levels and two oil content levels were studied. Amylose content of CSSBOC was unaffected by processing. Buffer pH significantly affected the firmness of the gels made with JCCS. Gels appeared to have a more ordered structure and were firmer at pH 3.4 than at pH 6.0. The firmness of gels made with CSSBOC was not affected by pH or oil content. Retrogradation enthalpy of the gels made with JCCS was significantly affected by pH. Differences in the thermal characteristics of gels made with CSSBOC were attributed to pH and oil content. Peak viscosity, cold paste viscosity, and breakdown viscosity changed significantly when CSSBOC pastes were reconstituted in different pH buffers. Only hot paste viscosity and cold paste viscosity changed significantly when JCCS pastes were reconstituted in different pH buffers. Results establish critical parameters for processing decisions and for the understanding of the behavior of CSSBOC in food system models in which pH is an important factor.
