The study explored the plasma-activated water (PAW)-assisted heat-moisture treatment (HMT) on the structural, physico-chemical properties, and in vitro digestibility of extrusion-recrystallized starch. Native starch of hausa potatoes underwent modification through a dual process involving PAW-assisted HMT (PHMT) followed by extrusion-recrystallization (PERH) using a twin-screw extruder. The PHMT sample showed surface roughness and etching with a significantly greater (p ≤ 0.05) RC (20.12 %) and ΔH (5.86 J/g) compared to DHMT. In contrast, PERH-induced structural damage, resulting in an irregular block structure, and altered the crystalline pattern from A to B + V-type characterized by peaks at 17.04°, 19.74°, 22°, and 23.94°. DSC analysis showed two endothermic peaks in all the extrusion-recrystallized samples, having the initial peak attributed to the melting of structured amylopectin chains and the second one linked to the melting of complexes formed during retrogradation. Dual-modified samples displayed notably increased transition temperatures (To 74.54 and 74.17 °C, To 122.65 and 121.49 °C), along with increased RS content (43.76 %-45.30 %). This study envisages a novel approach for RS preparation and broadens the utilization of PAW in starch modification synergistically with environmentally friendly techniques.

The presence of exogenous protein can delay starch digestion. However, systematic studies on the effects of protein on starch digestion under various heat treatments still need to be completed. In this study, the effects of exogenous protein and heat treatments on corn starch digestibility were investigated.

Hydrothermal treatment is a physical modification technology to alter starch structures for the production of resistant starch (RS). However, the underlying regulation mechanism of the multiscale structure and digestive properties of starch by dual hydrothermal synergistic treatment remains unclear. To solve this problem, A- and B-type wheat starch granules (AWS and BWS) were separated and subjected to toughening and heat-moisture synergistic treatment (THT) with various moisture content (10 %, 15 %, 20 %, 25 %).

This study investigates the effects of fermentation modification and combined modification with heat-moisture treatment (HMT) on the multiscale structure, physical and chemical properties, and quality of corn flour in the production of traditional fermented corn noodles (TFCNs). The results indicate that after fermentation modification, the starch granule size decreased while the amylopectin proportion increased. Fermentation also enhanced the relative crystallinity and short-range order of the starch, along with an increase in resistant digestion components and ester content in the noodles.

Type III resistant starch (RS3) is an important functional food ingredient. In this study, RS3 was prepared by retrogradation of pea starch after acid hydrolysis and pullulanase debranching. Heat-moisture treatments, including annealing (90 °C, 40-70 % moisture content) and pressure heating (121 °C, 10-40 % moisture content), were employed to further enhance the RS content of pea RS3.

This study delved into the interaction between corn starch and ethyl maltol during innovative repeated continuous heat-moisture treatment (RCHMT) and its impact on the quality of fried chicken nuggets. The results reveal that the complexation ratio of ethyl maltol is about 31.6%, and the complex creates dense microporous structures.
