Properties of South-Indian rice cultivars: physicochemical, functional, thermal and cooking characterisation.

ABSTRACT: Physicochemical, functional, thermal, pasting and cooking properties of five Indian rice cultivars, ADT 36, 43, 39, IW PONNI and CR1009 were investigated. The starch, protein and fat contents varied from 1.321 to 2.489 mg/ml, 11.16-13.32% and 1.19-1.77% respectively, showing significant difference amongst the cultivars. ADT46 showed the highest amylose-amylopectin ratio. Water (103.55-132.48%) and oil (112.89-137.30%) absorption capacities also varied significantly. CR1009 showed highest swelling power at 60 °C, whereas IW PONNI exhibited the highest solubility (10.165%). The gel consistency of rice flours extended from 1.32 to 4.12 cm. The thermal properties of rice cultivars were found to be profoundly affected by amylopectin and showed correlation with amylose-amylopectin ratio. The pas
