In this study, to improve the processing performance of whole grain highland barley flour (whole grain HB flour), they were prepared by sand-roasting, far-infrared baking, steam explosion, and extrusion, and the effects of on functional properties and storage characteristics were measured. The results indicated that sand-roasting, far-infrared baking, and steam explosion all caused cracks and honeycomb structures in the outer layer and endosperm of the highland barley. The XRD analysis results indicated that highland barley starch treated by far-infrared baking exhibited typical A-type crystal structure, while sand-roasting, steam explosion, and extrusion presented the typical V-type. The results of DSC analysis revealed that the onset temperature (To), peak temperature (Tp), gelatinization enthalpy (&Delta:H), peak viscosity (PV), trough viscosity (TV), and final viscosity (FV) decreased significantly, while the swelling power, water-holding capacity and oil-holding capacity increased significantly. During the storage period, the moisture content and lipase activity of the whole grain HB flour after thermal treatment remained at a low level: the fatty acid value, peroxide value, and malondialdehyde value increased: finally, the cooked whole grain HB flour was unstable during storage. The functional properties of whole grain HB flour can be improved by steam explosion, and will then have better storage stability.
