Abstract. Here we studied further the 'sweet water taste' (SWT). Physicochemical properties of · cassava sour starch. . In Cauca. Brabet I · De Koninck Y · Doyon N. A review was carried out of the physical and chemical properties of flours and starches made from cassava, yam, ñampi, and sweet potatoes. This sensation occurs through. , & Brabet, C. Although acid. ). Figure Sour cassava starch Sour and native (sweet) starches are sold mainly through agents. Pre-exposure to taste stimuli and certain chemicals can cause water to have a taste.

Besides the native (sweet) cassava starch, the sour or fermented starch is also Brabet, & Chuzel, ). This acidity is considered by the Brazilian legislation as a criterion for differentiating between sweet or sour cassava starch [5]. The organic acids produced during fermentation. Sweet, sour, and acid-treated starches showed differences in molecular weights and in the surface appearance, under SEM. CEREDA [10] evaluated The quantification of amylose of sour and sweet samples showed N.
