Rice starch is the major ingredient in the rice grain. The granules rather resemble salt crystals with their flat walls - an indication of how well compacted they are in their cells. Japanese rice has a higher proportion of waxy starch (i.e.,amylopectin) than Indian rice,and becomes more sticky when cooked as a result. Depressions in some walls are the imprints of harder protein bodies present in the cells | |
