When starch is cooled, it undergoes retrogradation, where the amylose and amylopectin molecules re-form a more ordered structure. This results in the formation of tight, insoluble aggregates, leading to the starch becoming thicker and less soluble. This process is commonly observed in cooked starchy foods that have been cooled, such as cold cooked rice or pasta, causing them to harden or become firmer.
Cooling the gelatinization of starch leads to the retrogradation process, where the gelatinized starch molecules reassociate and form a more ordered structure. This can result in changes in texture, making the starch mixture firmer and less soluble. Additionally, the retrograded starch can have reduced digestibility, affecting the nutritional properties of the food product. Overall, cooling influences both the physical and functional characteristics of starch in food systems.
No, compressing starch will not make it hard. Starch is a polysaccharide that forms a soft, powdery substance, regardless of compression. Heating and cooling can alter the texture of starch, but simply compressing it will not make it hard.
the amylase degrades the starch
Starch cannot dissolve in cold water, however boiling water has sufficient enough energy to dissolve starch.
The material become brittle.

The starch is converted into glucose.

the amylase degrades the starch
You get a physical change (the corn starch dissolves in the vinegar).
I think you mean starch and to test for it you have to use iodine and this turns black if there is starch in your food if nothing happens then there is no starch in the food.
Iodine reacts with starch to form a dark blue or black color. This is used as a common test to detect the presence of starch in a substance.

Starch is broken down in enzymes
Glucose and starch do not react together chemically. However, enzymes such as amylase can break down starch into glucose through a process called hydrolysis. This allows the glucose to be used for energy production in the body.
When iodine meets starch, a bluish-black coloration results. This reaction is used in a common test to detect the presence of starch in a substance.
