Xylitol with different content (0%~25%) was added to glutinous rice flour to construct a xylitol-glutinous rice flour blend system to investigate the effects of xylitol on the gelatinization properties, thermodynamic properties, gel texture, rheology properties and digestion properties of glutinous rice flour, as well as on the quality of rice dumpling made from xylitol-glutinous rice flour. The results showed that the addition of xylitol increased the gelatinization temperature, peak viscosity and final viscosity of the xylitol-glutinous rice flour, while reduced the degree of short-range ord...
