Summary: The complex and unique structure of starches is influenced by processing and storage conditions, leading to specific interactions with water such as gelatinization and retrogradation. Water content plays a critical role in the structure-function capacity of starches, while the presence of salt, sugars, and other constituents affects starch behavior in aqueous media. Gelatinization and retrogradation are associated with starch-water interactions, with the former describing water absorption by starch molecules under shear and temperature, and the latter describing starch molecule interactions under limited water availability.
