28
Q

Starch that have been altered physically or chemically, to modify one or more of its key chemicals or physical property.

These modifications can make the starch more stable under different cooking conditions, improve its thickening or gelling ability or enhance its resistance to heat and freezing.

A

MODIFIED STARCH

29
Q

EXAMPLES OF MODIFIED STARCHES

A
  1. Pre- gelatinized starch
  2. ACID-THINNED STARCH
  3. CROSS-LINKED STARCH
  4. OXIDIZED STARCH
  5. DEXTRIN
30
Q

it is a food additive used as a thickener and a gelling agent often found in instant puddings, cake mixes, and instant soups, this starch thickens without heating. It is made from corn or potato starch using a chemical process that causes the starch granules to swell and burst.

A

Pre- gelatinized starch

31
Q

used in confectionary products like gummy candies, as it creates a firm gel without being to thick.

A

ACID-THINNED STARCH

32
Q

found in products like pie fillings and canned soups it maintains stability under high heat and acidic conditions.

CROSS-LINKED STARCH

33
Q

used in foods such as coatings for fried products, this starch provides a smooth texture and crispness.

A

OXIDIZED STARCH

34
Q

used as a thickening agent in sauces, glazes, and some beverages produced by heating starch under acidic conditions.

A

DEXTRIN

35
Q

may be separated from grains and tubers by a process called wet milling. This procedure employs various techniques of grinding, and screening to separate the starch from fiber, oil and protein.

EXTRACTION,
FILTRATION,
DRYING

37
Q

6. HYDROLYSIS

43
Q

is the process where starch granules absorb water and swell when heated, resulting in the thickening of a liquid.

A

1.GELATINIZATION

44
Q

it refers to the thickness or resistance to flow of a starch-containing mixture, such as solution or gel.
When starch is stirred, more swollen granules break and more starch molecules spill causing in ________ or thickness.

A
  1. VISCOSITY
45
Q

When starch (cornstarch or flour) is added to _____, it thickens and becomes more thick as it cooks making the liquid smooth and less runny

A

gravy

46
Q

is the process in which starch molecules, re- associate or bond together in an ordered structure, resulting in a crystalline order appears when cool.

A
  1. RETROGADATION
47
Q

is the process where cooked starches (like rice, bread or potatoes) cool down and the starch molecules realign, making the food firm again. For example, when cooked rice or bread cools, it becomes harder and stiffer because starch is crystallizing again.

A
  1. RETROGADATION
48
Q

is the process
where water is expelled from a starch gel or mixture as it cools, leading to liquid separation.

A
  1. SYNERESIS
49
Q

Several food products that undergo syneresis, particularly those that rely on gels or thickened mixtures. Some common examples include:

A

Jellies and jams
Custards and puddings:
Tofu:

50
Q

can experience syneresis as liquid separates from the gel.

A

Jellies and jams

51
Q

Starch thickened
desserts may release water.

A

Custards and puddings:

52
Q

As gelled soybean product, ____ can release water from its structure during storage.

A

Tofu:

53
Q

►A process by which starch is broken down into smaller molecules, called dextrin, through the application of heat.

A
  1. DEXTRINIZATION
54
Q

This occurs when starch is exposed to dry heat, causing it undergo a chemical change.

A
  1. DEXTRINIZATION
55
Q

are shorter chains of glucose units, and this process results in a color change ( usually browning) and the production of a sweeter, more soluble of starch.

A

Dextrins

56
Q

is achieve by toasting flour for polvoron, rice flour for kare-kare and bread slices for breakfast.

A

DEXTRINIZATION

57
Q

Starches during undergo __________ during cooking and processing of food where a chemical reaction in which a molecular linkage and a molecule of water is utilized. This process helps convert the large starch molecules into smaller, easily digestible ones.

A
  1. HYDROLYSIS
58
Q

► Prolonged cooking of starches with acid will promote __________

A
  1. HYDROLYSIS
59
Q

This can happened when cooking an acidic food such as pineapple pie resulting in reduced viscosity or firmness of the pie filling.

A
  1. HYDROLYSIS
60
Q

Another example is the production of corn syrup, during process starch from grains like corn undergoes __________ with the help of acids to break down starch into simple sugars

A
  1. HYDROLYSIS
