Abstract
This study investigated the effects of heat moisture treatment (HMT) on the in vitro glycemic index and physicochemical properties of rice flour from two cultivars with different amylose contents. HMT decreased glycemic index and pasting viscosity, but increased pasting temperature and onset temperature relative to non-treated rice flour. High-amylose rice flour exhibited significantly higher pasting temperature and lower glycemic index than that with low amylose content. Rice flour dumplings prepared with 0, 40, 50, or 60% w/w HMT flour demonstrated differing texture profiles and sensory characteristics. Pearson's correlation showed that the amylose content of the rice flour used to make the dumplings was positively correlated (p < 0.01) with their hardness and negatively correlated (p < 0.01) with their adhesiveness, cohesiveness, and overall acceptance score. In addition, the glycemic index decreased with increasing HMT flour proportion. It was therefore concluded that HMT of rice flour could be used to achieve product acceptance with a lower glycemic index by compromising between physicochemical properties and sensory quality.
