Hydrothermal modifications of granular starch, with retention of the granular structure: A review

H Jacobs, JA Delcour - Journal of agricultural and food chemistry, 1998 - ACS Publications
Annealing and heat−moisture treatment are two hydrothermal treatments that modify the
physicochemical properties of starch, without destroying granular structure. They involve …
