The influence of lactic acid bacteria (LAB) strains of various species isolated from Chinese traditional sourdough on the properties of rice sourdough and the textural and flavor qualities of steamed rice bread (SRB) was investigated. Lactiplantibacillus plantarum-fermented rice sourdough had a higher total titratable acidity (13.10 mL) than the other groups. Strains Lacticaseibacillus paracasei PC1 (LPC), Lactobacillus helveticus H1 (LH), Lactobacillus crustorum C1 (LC), Lactobacillus paralimentarius PA1 (LPA), and Lactiplantibacillus plantarum P1 (LP) showed marked protein hydrolysis during rice sourdough fermentation and increased free amino acid levels in rice sourdoughs relative to the control. The Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy results indicated that LAB fermentation could promote the strengthening of inter-intramolecular hydrogen bonds and cause modifications in protein structures; however, these effects varied among the different strains. The LC and LPC strains had the most significant effect on improving the specific volume and textural properties of SRBs. Gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS) and GC-ion mobility spectrometry (IMS) identified 33 and 35 volatile compounds, respectively, in the LAB-fermented SRBs, and differentiation was observed in the volatile profiles of SRBs made using different LAB strains. The differential impacts of LAB strains during rice sourdough fermentation can assist in the selection of candidate microorganisms for the production of high-quality gluten-free rice products.
