Abstract: The paste properities of Buckwheat starch has been studied in contrast with three kinds of starch, namely wheatstarch、maize starch and potato starch.The results suggested that the gluting temperature of Buckwheat starch was similar tothat of wheat starch,but lower than that of maize starch and potato starch.Both the stability of hot visciasdity and cold visciasdityof Buckwheat starch was strongest among four kinds of starch.The gelatipficlation and the precipitation of Buckwheat starch werealso more prowerful than these of other three kinds of starch.It also showed that the transparency of Buckwheat starch wasinferior to that of wheat starch、maize starch and potato starch,but its stability of freezing and melting was better than that ofother three kinds of starch.

Key words: Buckwheat, starch, paste properities
