Gelatinization temperature also depends on the amount of damaged starch granules; these will swell faster. Damaged starch can be produced, for example, during the wheat milling process, or when drying the starch cake in a starch plant. [5] There is an inverse correlation between gelatinization temperature and glycemic index. [4]
Retrogradation is a reaction that takes place when the amylose and amylopectin chains in cooked, gelatinized starch realign themselves as the cooked starch cools. [1]When native starch is heated and dissolved in water, the crystalline structure of amylose and amylopectin molecules is lost and they hydrate to form a viscous solution.
Polymers prior (no gel) and after crosslinking (gel). In polymer chemistry, gelation (gel transition) is the formation of a gel from a system with polymers. [1] [2] Branched polymers can form links between the chains, which lead to progressively larger polymers.
The gelatinization temperature is defined as the temperature at which maximum gelatinization or swelling of the starch granule has occurred. This is also the point of maximum viscosity. Further cooking will burst the granule apart completely, releasing all of the glucose chains. In addition, viscosity is reduced as the granules are destroyed.
Waxy starches, after starch gelatinisation, retrograde less during storage. [citation needed] The cultivation of potatoes for starch mainly takes place in Germany, the Netherlands, China, Japan, [6] France, Denmark, and Poland, but also in Sweden, Finland, Austria, the Czech Republic, Ukraine, Canada, and India.

The starches in parboiled rice become gelatinized, then retrograded after cooling.Through gelatinization, amylose molecules leach out of the starch granule network and diffuse into the surrounding aqueous medium outside the granules [7] which, when fully hydrated are at maximum viscosity. [8]

Traditionally, during heat treatment, the temperature is kept moderate so that only the surface layer of the lumps of the moist starch begins to gelatinize, and this process is described as gelatinization. One process of gelatinization is performed by placing the pearls inside shallow pans, which are then placed inside a brick oven.
