Starch in Breadmaking
Water Absorbtion
When starch granules are added to warm water they
readily absorb water and swell.
At gelatinization temperatures (>50oC) water absorbtion
increase resulting the expansion of starch granule
volume.
Intact starch granules absorb only half of their weight of
cold water compared to damaged starch granules, which
absorb up to twice their own weight.
Damaged starch amount is important as it increases the
absorbed water amount (controlled by milling, wheat
variety, protein content of flour, baking process)

Starch in Breadmaking
Gelatinization
Loss of birefringence (typical maltese crosses)
when starch in water suspension is heated.
During baking process, partial gelatinization occurs
as a result of limited availability of water.
The starch granules swell and result in a change
in a change in configuration which allows them to
elongate during expansion of the gas cell.
Thus starch granule is involved in formation of film
surrounding the gas cells (crumb structure).
