The findings revealed a substantial improvement in rice texture with the addition of oleogel, particularly noteworthy at a 3% (w/w) incorporation of RBW (Rice Bran Wax). Under this condition, the hardness reached 15.75N, and stickiness measured 2.16N. The incorporation of 1–3% (w/w) oleogel significantly enhances the color vibrancy of rice during the cooking process, resulting in an increase in the L* value of the rice from 73.86 to 73.95-76.74. Sensory evaluation revealed higher scores for BW (Bee Wax) and RBW at 40.68 and 40.23 points, respectively. Microscopic structural analysis indicated that the incorporation of RBW oleogel led to rice samples with the smallest pores, contributing to a more refined internal pore structure in the grains. In the control rice, 7 aldehyde compounds were detected with a relative content of 43.44%. The addition of oleogel increased the number of aldehyde compounds to 9, with a relative content of 48.06%. This study expands the potential applications of oleogels in rice cooking, enriching flavor profiles and presenting opportunities for integration into the food industry.</p></div>","PeriodicalId":15285,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Cereal Science","volume":"118 ","pages":"Article 103955"},"PeriodicalIF":3.8,"publicationDate":"2024-06-10","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"141325353","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"农林科学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Fermentation increased pasting viscosity at 16 and 24 h, but decreased at 40 h due to starch hydrolysis. Protein hydrolysis as shown by SDS-PAGE leads to disaggregation of flour particles and the release of starch granules to increase the pasting viscosity. Thus, starch was more freely available to absorb water to paste and produce a higher viscosity from zero to 40 h. The decrease in pasting viscosity from 24 h to 40 h of fermentation was related to starch hydrolysis, as there was a reduction in total starch in the batter and pitting of starch granules, as shown by scanning electron microscopy. Fermentation had a more significant effect on techno-functional properties than sorghum types. Low protein and high tannin contents among the sorghum type also showed higher pasting viscosity.
