Abstract
The resistant starch (RS) contents of rice and waxy amaranth starch su bjected to processing treatments like cooking by boiling, pressure coo king, roasting, extrusion cooking, frying and drum drying have been re ported. Compared to the contents in the native starch, when expressed on dry wt basis, in both cases, cooking by boiling and pressure cookin g resulted in increase in RS content whereas all other processing trea tments resulted in a decrease in RS contents.
