This fact may have occurred because when starch molecules get in contact with excess water and undergo heating, abreakdown of the crystalline structures occurs and the molecules build hydrogen bonds between amylose and amylopectin, causing hydroxyl groups exposure increasing starch granule swelling (Singh, Singh, Kaur, Sodhi, & Gill, 2003).
