Why is tapioca pearl so elastic?

Frozen Instant Boba

The boba in pearl milk tea is normally made of cassava starch. The chain starch content in cassava starch is as high as 83%, so it can make very elastic pearls. Similarly, among other general cereals, the starch content in glutinous rice is 98%, while the ordinary rice content is between 70%-83%. Obviously, the starch content in glutinous rice is high, so it is even stronger, so its stickiness is stronger.


We know that cereal foods are composed of starch, protein and other nutrients, among which starch is mostly accounted for. The Tapioca Pearl just mentioned is hidden in this starch. Starch is divided into direct chain starch and branches of starch.

Starch starch can be hydrolyzed by starch to maltose, so when you eat grain foods containing straight starch, you will chew more and more sweeter. At the same time, straight starch can be dissolved in hot water, but it will not form a paste. The more obvious manifestation is that the iodine is blue.

Only the periphery chain can be hydrolyzed by starch to maltose, so chewing is not as sweet as a straight starch. It is worth noting that the Frozen Boba is insoluble in cold water, and the effect of hot water is swollen and paste, and it is sticky and elastic. This is what we call it. Unlike the straight starch, it is purple or red purple when it encounters iodine.
