Gelatinization is the process that we take a starch (like flour or cornstarch) and it to a liquid for the purpose of thickening that liquid. The starch absorbs the water and gets bigger. The starch with the liquid changes consitancy from dry powder to a soft thick mass.

Good examples of gelatinization cooking include using flour, cornstarch or arrow root to make a gravy. Or using any of those to thicken the broth in a stew.

So any recipe for gravy that uses a starch to thicken it - is an example of gelatinization

What is the principle involved on the application of gelatinisation in the making of sweet dishes?

Gelatinization is the process where starch granules absorb water, swell, and burst, releasing starch molecules that thicken liquids. This principle is applied in making sweet dishes like puddings, custards, and pies to achieve the desired texture and consistency. Heating starch and liquid together activates gelatinization, creating a smooth, thickened mixture that sets as it cools.
