Abstract
Heat-moisture treatment (HMT) is a widely used method for modifying starch properties with the potential to reduce the digestibility of high-amylose starch (HAS). This study aimed to optimize the HMT conditions for HAS and apply the resulting HMT-HAS to triticale noodles to develop low-glycemic-index products. HMT significantly increased the resistant starch (RS) content and decreased the rapidly digestible starch (RDS) content of HAS. The treatment conditions-temperature, heating time, and moisture content-were found to significantly influence the starch composition. Optimal HMT conditions were determined using response surface methodology: a temperature of 108 °C, a heating time of 5.8 h, and a moisture content of 25.50%. Under these conditions, the RS content of HMT-HAS was 60.23%, nearly double that of the untreated sample. Increasing the level of HMT-HAS in triticale noodles led to significant decreases in short-range order, relative crystallinity, and viscosities, while the RS content increased from 12.08% to 34.41%. These findings suggest that incorporating HMT-HAS into triticale noodles effectively enhances starch digestive resistance, supporting the development of functional, low-glycemic-index triticale-based foods.
