The starch obtained from the tikhur rhizomes is highly nutritious and easily digestible. In this paper describe the variation of physicochemical properties on tikhur powder extracted from rhizome by two different methods such as laboratory grinder and starch extraction machine. Results shows that the values of physicochemical properties slightly differ in protein and ash but no more significant variation finds. The data of water solubility index and swelling powers of tikhur powder was increased with increasing temperature range from50–100°C. In concussion the use of both methods for powder extraction are more useful and economical.
