Effect of hydrothermal modifications (autoclaving, annealing and heat moisture treatment) on physico-chemical, rheological properties and in vitro digestibility of kithul starch was studied. Annealing and heat moisture treatment decreased swelling index, solubility and increased crystalline properties as compared with autoclaving. Autoclaving, annealing and heat moisture treatment caused significant morphological damages such as large holes and fissures on the kithul starch, in addition, granules changed from oval to donut shape. Heat moisture treatment formed higher number of agglomerated starch granules. Light transmittance decreased after hydrothermal modifications. Autoclaving and annealing increased the pasting viscosities (except break down viscosity) of kithul starch. A significant increase (p ≤ 0.05) in peak temperature, conclusion temperature and enthalpy was found in annealed and heat moisture treated kithul starches. The digestibility of kithul starch decreased with increasing resistant starch after annealing and heat moisture treatment. Autoclaved, annealed and heat moisture treated kithul starches exhibited higher value of storage modulus (G′) and loss modulus (G″) than native kithul starch. It entail to higher firmness of modified starch gel. The current study showed that the remarkable changes formed by hydrothermal modifications increased the industrial acceptance of kithul starch.
