Abstract
The effects of the addition of apricot juice on Haengbyung qualities were evaluated. The reducing sugar contents, degree of gelatinization, moisture contents, color L value and b value of Haengbyung were decreased but the color a value and hardness were increased during the storage. The reducing sugar contents and gelatinization of Haengbyung with the raw apricot juice was decreased less than those with the steamed apricot juice during the storage. the moisture contents of Haengbyung were decreased less than Baeksulgi. Color b value of Haengbyung with the raw apricot juice was decreased less than that with the steamed apricot juice. The consistence, moistness, texture and overall quality of Haengbyung were generally more favorable than Baeksulgi based upon the sensory evaluation during the storage. Throughout the storage, consistence, moistness and texture of Haengbyung with the rqw apricot juice were generally more favorable than those with the steamed apricot juice. With respect to overall quality, Haengbyung with the addition of 15% apricot juice of rice flour weight was generally the most favorable during the storage.
