Description
Summary:In order to increase flour recovery, resistant starch content and to lower the glycemic index and glycemic load, the water chestnuts were subjected to pre-optimized conditions of pre-conditioning. The low glycemic index water chestnut flour (F1) obtained thereafter was analyzed for different functional, viscous, thermal and structural properties. F1 exhibited improved functional properties due to gelatinization of starch followed by retrogradation during pre-conditioning which confirms its feasibility for development of diverse food products in comparison to commercially available market flour (F2). Pasting properties—peak viscosity, hold viscosity, breakdown viscosity, final viscosity and set back viscosity (SBV) were found significantly ( p
