ABSTRACT Native starch from waxy mutant wheat Tanikei A6599‐4 is known to exhibit more stable hot paste viscosity than a typical waxy wheat (Tanikei H1881) and waxy corn. The objective of this study was to investigate the starch paste properties of Tanikei A6599‐4 after cross‐linking and compare with Tanikei H1881 and waxy corn. As an example of cross‐linking, the reaction (at 30, 60, 120, and 360 min) with sodium trimetaphosphate was used. In Rapid Visco Analyser (RVA) measurement, the unique characteristic was maintained in Tanikei A6599‐4 starch cross‐linked at low reaction time (<120 min) levels. Cross‐linking at a high reaction time (360 min) level suppressed the swelling of both Tanikei A6599‐4 and Tanikei H1881 starches but not waxy corn starch. Although unmodified Tanikei A6599‐4 starch showed the lowest paste clarity among unmodified waxy starches, this defect became unremarkable when starch was cross‐linked for ≥120 min. In gel‐dispersed dynamic viscoelasticity measurement, the order of G′ and G″ values was always Tanikei A6599‐4 > Tanikei H1881 > waxy corn. This indicates that cross‐linked Tanikei A6599‐4 and Tanikei H1881 starches have different starch properties and that swollen Tanikei A6599‐4 starch granules are more rigid than swollen Tanikei H1881 starch granules.
