Description
Summary:The National Institute of Crop Science, Rural Development Administration (RDA) of Korea is presently developing new rice varieties suitable for producing Western rice-based foods, such as risotto , a well-known Italian-style product. The study considered different milled rice from five Tongil-type and six Japonica-type varieties. Besides the biometric properties, cooking behaviour, starch properties, and in vitro digestibility of Korean rice samples were compared with those of the ‘Carnaroli’ Italian variety. The physicochemical traits of the Korean varieties extended over a vast range; the amylose content stood out (from 13.0 to 41.7%), influencing the hardness and stickiness of cooked samples, and their starch digestibility. Although none of the Korean varieties seemed to guarantee cooking performances for risotto similar to the ‘Carnaroli’ one, ‘Saemimyeon’ and ‘Shingil’ cvs were judged the best for this purpose up-to-now.
