The influence of heat-moisture treatment (HMT) and substitution of rice flour containing different amylose contents on the quality characteristics of rice noodles was investigated. HMT was applied to rice flours with 21% moisture content at 100 and 105$^{\circ}C$ for 30 min. Three rice cultivars were used, including high amylose of Goami (GM) and intermediate amylose of Choochung (CC) as domestic rice flours and imported rice of Taeguk (TG) as a control. HMT and substitution of rice flour with different amylose contents affected the cooking and texture quality of rice noodles. When rice noodles were made of intermediate amylose rice flour with HMT, cooking properties improved with decreased cooking loss and cooking water turbidity and thus were closer to those of control. Especially, the hardness, adhesiveness, tensile strength, and darkness of rice noodles notably increased when HMT rice flour was used. Based on the results of quantitative descriptive analysis for selected rice noodles, the noodles made of HMT CC at 105$^{\circ}C$ (CC105) had high scores for resilience and adhesiveness and low scores for hardness compared with imported commercial rice noodles and other experimental noodles such as TG, HMT GM100, TG+CC, and TG+CC105. In conclusion, rice noodles were made of composite flours containing high amylose and intermediate amylose contents or HMT intermediate amylose content rice flour.

For increasing both the viscosity and intake of calories and nutrients, four cereal powders: Goami (GR), waxy barley (WBL), germinated brown rice (GBR), and oat (OT) were added to rice porridge, and the properties of the porridge were compared with that containing a commercial thickener. Among the samples, the porridge with WBL showed the highest viscosity, whereas that with GR showed the lowest. With regards to color properties, the porridge with GR showed the highest whiteness, while those with OT or GBR had the highest yellowness, affecting the color of the rice porridge. The viscosity level of porridges with cereal powders did not reach that of the porridge with the commercial thickener at $90-95^{\circ}C$; however, at $55-60^{\circ}C$, the viscosity of the porridge with cereals was enough to replace the commercial thickener. With regards to organoleptic tests, the overall acceptability was mainly attributed to color, and there were no significant differences in other properties. From these results, it seems that the cereal powders could be suitable substitutes for commercial thickeners.

Heat-moisture treatment (HMT) was applied to 4 samples of rice flours, Goami (GM), Taeguk (TG), Choochung (CC) and Koshihikari (KSHK), of which amylose contents were 31.5, 32.3, 24.3, and 23.3%, respectively. Wet-milled rice flours were dried, moisture content adjusted to 21, 24, 27 and 30%, respectively, and autoclaved at 100 and $105^{\circ}C$ for 30~90 min. The changes on swelling, solubility, RVA (rapid visco analyser) paste viscosities and gel strength were observed. In GM and TG, peak viscosity (PV) and breakdown (BD) decreased and no peak appeared as moisture and treatment time increased by HMT. In CC, FV increased notably with big increase of PV and setback (SB) by HMT compared to the other rice flours. BD in all the samples decreased as moisture, temperature, and time increased by HMT. RVA pasting properties of HMT GM and HMT TG were changed remarkably under conditions of moisture 21%, $100^{\circ}C$ and 30 min whereas for HMT CC and HMT KSHK, higher temperature or more time was required at the same mois ture levels. The swelling power, solubility and gel strength increased by HMT. Gel strength correlated positively with SB (r=0.78, p<0.01) and negatively with BD (r=-0.71, p<0.01) and PV (r=-0.36, p<0.05) resulting from strengthening the structure of starch granules in rice flours by HMT.
