ABSTRACT
Charting out personalized and/or optimized diets offers new opportunities in the field of food science, although with inherent challenges. Starch-based foods are a major component of daily energy intake in humans. In addition to being rich in starch, starchy foods also contain a multitude of bioactive substances (e.g., polyphenols, lipids). Food processing including storage affects the consistency and interactions between starch and other food components, which can affect the quality and nutritional characteristics of starch-based foods. This review describes the effects of interactions between starch and other components on the structural evolution of starch during food processing. We ponder upon how the evolution of starch molecular structure affects the quality and nutritional characteristics of starch-based foods vis-a-vis the structure-property relationship. Furthermore, we formulate best practices in processing starchy food to retain the quality and nutritional value by rationally designing starch structural domains. Interestingly, we found that inhibiting the formation of a crystalline structures while promoting the formation of short-range ordered structures and nano-aggregates can synchronously slow down its digestion and retrogradation properties, thus improving the quality and nutritional characteristics of starch-based food. This review provides theoretical guidelines for new researchers and food innovators of starch-based foods.
