摘要：Commercial process of oat noodles was mainly hindered by its lack of gluten and difficulty in forming dough. Extrusion could be an effective method to produce oat noodles by forming network of gelatinized starch, and noodle quality could be improved by regulating the retrogradation process. In this study, we produced oat noodles by two‐step extruding and investigated the effect of retrogradation treatment (retrogradation time and ambient relative humidity) on noodle properties. At each corresponding ambient relative humidity (RH), the starch crystallinity and enthalpy value increased, while setback value decreased, as well as noodle cooking loss was significantly improved as retrogradation time increased to 48 hr, and then decreased at 72 hr. At the same retrogradation time, the starch crystallinity, setback, and enthalpy value decreased to RH70% and then had a slight rise at RH80%, while noodle cooking loss with reversal trend. The retrogradation time of 48 hr and ambient RH of 60% could be an optimum treatment for effectively improving extruded oat noodle quality. Furthermore, multivariate data analysis indicated that samples at the same ambient RH tended to be clustered together. This study could provide basic knowledge for controlling processing condition of the extruded oat noodle.
