Comparative Study of the Impact of Stearin-Modified Starches from Maize, Ginger, and Sweet Potato on the Physicochemical Properties of Low-Fat Mayonnaise

Abstract

The utilization of modified starches derived from ginger, sweet potatoes, and maize has been employed as a strategy to reduce the oil content in mayonnaise formulations. Amylose–lipid complexes and the native starches were synthesized, characterized, and subsequently incorporated into various mayonnaise formulations, replacing 50 and 80 percent of the oil. The sensory analysis showed that the mayonnaises produced with 50% and 80% modified corn starch were particularly well received. However, when compared to conventional mayonnaises, the viscosity of the mayonnaises prepared with 50% and 80% modified maize starch was found to be remarkably low. This outcome demonstrates that when preparing low-fat mayonnaise, it is not possible to substitute tuber starches for fat.
