Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The objective of this research is to develop a palatable and bio-functional (low-digestible) rice product and to elucidate the mechanism. Using ordinary rice, giant-embryo rice or super-hard rice, we evaluated eating quality and low-digestibility, and it became possible to improve the characteristics. In case of the super-hard rice, it was clarified that the starch properties, especially contents of medium to long chains of the amylopectin, affect the eating quality and low-digestability through the physical properties and pasting properties. In the case of giant-embryo rice, it was indicated that germination was accelerated by the addition of red onion through the increase of phyto-hormone like IAA and high-pressure treatment improves palatability through the activation of enzymes and change in starch structure.
