Mild Hydrothermal Stabilization: An Innovative Technology for Improving Whole‐Grain Rice Quality in West Africa and Elsewhere

Cereal Chemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background and Objectives Whole‐grain (brown) rice has superior nutritional quality but is prone to rancidity, primarily caused by endogenous lipases and oxidases. This study evaluated mild hydrothermal stabilization (MHS), comprising grain surface wetting, followed by short‐duration atmospheric‐pressure steaming, applied to two West African ...
