Answer to Question 1

To allow gelatinization to occur and experience desired pasting and thickening.

Answer to Question 2

Starches with low amylose content such as waxy corn starch or sorghum should be selected for products that will be frozen. As gels cool, bonds between amylose molecules continue to tighten and force water out due to the contraction of the gel. This is known as retrogradation. Retrogradation is accelerated by freezing and would negatively impact the quality.
