It has been suggested that the ideal starch base for preparing noodle is one with restricted swelling and a viscosity that remains constant or even increases during
continue heating and shearing, indicative of good hot paste stability (Collado, Mabesa, Oates, & Corke, 2001).
Results indicated that either substitution of rice starch derivatives or aging of rice could improve heat and shear stability, making rice flour more appropriate for noodle preparation.
However, FV and SB were low in composite flours compared to aged flour.
