Niangao is prepared from polished round-grained or waxy rice flour and it is a popular and traditional steamed rice cake in China, but its preparation is different. In this study, Niangao was produced with naturally fermented rice flour and the effects of fermentation on physical properties and rheological characteristics were investigated. The results suggest that the water-holding capacity, texture, and color of the samples were significantly improved after natural fermentation, while amylose content was decreased. Additionally, fermentation had a marked effect on retarding the retrogradation of Niangao because fermented Niangao exhibited lower degree of retrogradation compared with the control. Control means Niangao which was produced by unfermented rice flour. Fermented Niangao was harder to be digested than the control was. |
