Abstract

High amylose corn starch and dextrin (acid-treated at 30, 40 and 50oC denominated as Dextrin30, Dextrin40 and Dextrin50) were added to non-fried instant noodles. X-ray diffraction pattern, water absorption, cooking loss, microstructure, and textural properties of non-fried instant noodles were investigated. The addition of high amylose corn starch/dextrin induced a slight peak intensity at 20o in the X-ray pattern indicating the insignificant formation of amylose-lipid complex. Non-fried instant noodles including high amylose corn starch/dextrin showed lower water absorption than the control. Dense microstructure in transverse section of noodles was observed in non-fried instant noodles including high amylose corn starch/dextrin except Dextrin50. Also, the addition of high amylose corn starch/dextrin induced low tensile strength, high firmness, and high stickiness. However, non-fried instant noodles containing Dextrin50 showed a loose microstructure and high cooking loss (3.98%), which might be associated with the textural properties such as the lowest tensile strength (0.17 N), lowest increase in firmness (46.77 N) and highest stickiness (18.43 N).
