The principal objective of this study was to evaluate the physicochemical characteristics of brown rice Dasik prepared with different 5 levels(0, 25, 50, 75, 100%) of modified potato starch powder. We assessed the general compositions, Hunter's color values, the mechanical characteristics, and conducted a sensory evaluation analysis of brown rice Dasik at room temperature($20^{\circ}C$). The more modified potato starch powder composition was increased, the content of ash, protein and fat were significantly decreased(p<0.05). We noted that the luminance of samples were increased the more modified potato starch powder composition was increased, but in Hunter's a and b values were decreased. With regard to the mechanical properties of the Dasik samples, we noted significant differences in hardness, gumminess, chewiness but no differences in springiness, cohesiveness and adhesiveness were detected. The more modified potato starch powder composition was increased, the more the score of hardness, gumminess and chewiness were higher. The results of sensory evaluation showed that there were significant differences on the color, sweetness, mouth-feel, chewiness, overall quality of the Dasik samples(p<0.05). The score of brown rice Dasik with 50%(w/w) modified potato starch(BM2) in color, mouth-feel, chewiness, overall quality were significantly increased than those of other samples.
