During starch gelatinization, amylopectin
double helices are disrupted and amylose leaches out of the granule,
which are expected to be affected by the presence of KGM.At high concentrations
of KGM, cooking yield was observed to be inversely correlated
to KGM content, as explained by the negative effect of KGM
hydration on gluten and starch structures. KGM decreasing the water
amount available for starch gelatinization was previously reported by
