This study was carried out to investigate the quality characteristics of bread containing Houttuynia cordata Thunb. powder (HTP; in ratios of 0, 0.3, 0.5 and 1.0% of the total flour). We found that addition of HTP decreased the pH of dough, whereas the pH of bread remained unchanged. HTP caused no significant change in dough volume during fermentation. Baking loss did not show significant difference between HTP containing bread and control. However, we found changes in bread volume with the most pronounced decrease observed in bread containing 0.1% HTP. Lightness and redness of the inner crumb were decreased by the addition of HTP, whereas yellowness was increased. 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl-radical scavenging activity and total polyphenol contents were increased significantly by the addition of HTP. The overall acceptability of bread containing 0.5% HTP was better than that of control.

Dough fermentation characteristics and quality characteristics of bread added with different concentration(0, 30, 40 and $50\%$ against water) of submerged-culture broth of Fomitopsis pinicola mycelium (CM) were investigated There were positive correlations between CM concentration and dough pH(r=0.98), acidity(r=-0.88), dough thickness(r=0.95) and dough strength(r=0.95). Baking loss rate was decreased with increasing of CM concentration. There was no significant difference between loaf volume index and CM concentration ($30\~40\%$, but the index of CM $50\%$ bread was lower than that of control. L* value of top crust in the CM $50\%$ bread was significantly lower than those of CM $0\~40\%$ bread, while the value of internal tissue was increased with increasing of CM concentration. In the CM $30\~40\%$ bread, hardness was lower, but there were no significant difference in cohesiveness, springiness, chewiness and brittleness compared with control. Appearance, color, taste, texture and overall acceptability of CM $30\~40\%$ bread were similar to those of control. In the results estimated by correlation analysis, the increased pH of the dough by adding CM allowed lowering hardness of the bread By adding CM in bread, retrogradations were delayed, and growth of mold was decreased during storage. In conclusion, the optimum concentration of CM in bread which showed anti-diabetic effect as well as not dropped quality characteristics were $30\~40\%$.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the quality of castella added with different concentrations (0%, 5%, 10%, and 15%) of Panax ginseng sprout powder. The specific gravity of castella made with 15% ginseng sprout powder was the highest (0.65), and baking loss rate was highest well. However, the height and weight of castella were highest in the control. The pH of castella decreased with increasing levels of Panax ginseng sprout powder, whereas sugar content of castella did not show significant differences. The Hunter L, a, and b values of crust decreased as the concentration of Panax ginseng sprout powder increased. The Hunter L and a values of crumb decreased as the concentration of ginseng sprout powder increased, whereas b values of crumb increased. The gumminess and chewiness of castella increased by addition of Panax ginseng sprout powder, whereas cohesiveness of castella decreased. The hardness and springiness of castella did not show significant differences. In the sensory evaluation, crust color, crumb color, aroma and moistness did not show significant differences among samples while sweet taste, and chewiness were highest in the control group. The overall acceptability of castella added with 5% Panax ginseng sprout powder was the highest. Therefore, the results suggest that castella added with 5% ginseng sprout powder could be helpful for improving physical quality and taste.

The study investigated the quality of pound cake prepared with various concentrations of cherry powder (obtained from ground fruit of Prunus serrulata L. var. spontanea Max. wils.). Pound cake was evaluated for their sensory property and physical quality stored for 10 days at $25^{\circ}C$. The pH of the batter decreased with rising cherry powder concentration. The specific loaf volume and height decreased (from 2.95 to $2.60\;cm^3/g$) with increasing in cherry powder. The baking loss rate of the pound cake tended to increased by $11.47{\sim}12.67%$, but with no significant differences. The lightness, redness, and yellowness values were significantly decreased with increases in cherry powder except for redness of pound cake crumb. As the concentration of cherry powder increased, the mechanical characteristics of the pound cake did not differ significantly. The hardness tended to increase, while adhesiveness and springiness decreased with increases in powder. The retrogradation degree of pound cake prepared with cherry powder was higher than the control but there were no significant differences. For the antioxidative activity measured by DPPH (2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl) radical scavenging activity, pound cake prepared with 10% and 15% added cherry powder showed high antioxidant activities. The pound cakes containing 10 and 15% cherry powder had acceptable sensory properties, such as flavor, taste, softness, moisture, and overall acceptability. The results exhibited that adding the cherry powder into the pound cake increased antioxidant activity with the highest quality improvement obtained by incorporating 10% (w/w) of cherry powder into the pound cake formula.

The study investigated on quality characteristics of pan breads prepared with 0, 1, 3 and 5% flowering cherry (Prunus serrulata L. var. spontanea Max. wils.) fruit powder. The pH of dough and bread decreased with the addition of flowering cherry fruit powder, whereas the weight of bread increased. The volume, specific volume and baking loss rate of the breads decreased as flowering cherry fruit powder levels increased. The volume of dough during fermentation of bread containing flowering fruit cherry powder was smaller than those of the dough without flowering cherry fruit powder. Lightness (L) and yellowness (b) of breads crumb and crust color were decreased as the concentration of flowering cherry fruit powder increased; however, the redness (a) was increased. In the texture analyzer measurement, hardness and chewiness of the breads were significantly increased by adding the powder but cohesiveness was decreased. There was no significant difference in springiness. The antioxidative activity measured by DPPH radical scavenging activity of bread increased as the concentration of flowering cherry fruit powder increased. The bread containing 3% flowering cherry fruit powder has acceptable sensory properties. such as color, smell, taste, chewiness, texture and overall acceptability. The results exhibited that adding the flowering cherry fruit powder into the bread increased antioxidant activity, and the highest quality improvement was obtained by incorporating 3% flowering cherry fruit powder into the bread formula.

Radicchio (Cichorium intybus L.) is widely known to have antioxidant, anti-cancer, and digestion-promoting effects. Antioxidant activity and sensory characteristics of sponge cakes made with radicchio powder were investigated in this study. Sponge cakes were made with freeze-dried radicchio powder added to the flour at concentrations of 1, 3, 5, and 7%. As the amount of radicchio powder increased, the specific gravity of radicchio-containing sponge cakes significantly increased. pH value did not significantly differ between groups. Moisture content decreased from 30.72% (control) to 28.68% (7% radicchio) and loss of mass during baking increased from 7.11% (control) to 9.36% (7% radicchio). L (brightness) and b (yellowness) of sponge cakes decreased while redness increased. Hardness and chewiness decreased as concentration of radicchio powder increased. Springiness and cohesiveness did not significantly differ between any of the groups. Total polyphenol contents ranged from 0.12 to 0.31 mg GAE/g. DPPH scavenging activity significantly increased as the amount of radicchio powder increased. Overall acceptability of sensory experience measured on a 7-point scale was highest in the 3% radicchio cakes (5.35). In conclusion, the addition of 3% radicchio powder improves the sensory qualities of radicchio sponge cakes.

We investigated the feasibility of incorporating licorice powder as a value-added food ingredient in pound cake, a model system of convenient food products. The pH and moisture content gradually decreased with increasing levels of added licorice powder (p<0.05). The weight and height of the cakes decreased, and the baking loss increased as higher amounts of licorice powder were included in the formulation (p<0.05). The lightness and hardness both decreased, whereas browning increased significantly (p<0.05) with the addition of licorice powder. In addition, we observed a significant increase (p<0.05) in 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2'-azino-bis(3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radical scavenging activities that correlated well with the licorice powder content. In consumer acceptance tests, the addition of 4% licorice powder had the most favorable effect on consumer preferences for all the attributes examined. Based on these observations, we recommend supplementing pound cakes with 4% (w/w) licorice powder to take advantage of its functional properties without sacrificing consumer acceptability.

This study investigated the quality characteristics of cookies made with chestnut inner peel powder and its potential as a food ingredient. Cookies were made with various levels (0, 10, 20, 30, 40%) of chestnut inner peel powder. Dough pieces were baked for 20 minutes at $180^{\circ}C$ in an electrically heated rotary oven for about 10 minutes, and all items were measured after cooling for 24 hours at normal temperature. Quality characteristics were measured by moisture content, leavening rate, loss rate, spread factor, color, texture profile analysis, and sensory evaluations. The moisture content of cookies was significantly affected by increasing chestnut inner peel powder (p<0.001). The spread factor as well as L-value and b-value of cookies significantly decreased with increasing chestnut inner peel powder content (p<0.001). However, hardness and redness (a-value) of cookies significantly increased with increasing chestnut inner peel powder content (p<0.001). The sensory score showed that cookies added with 20% chestnut inner peel powder had higher color, texture, and overall acceptability scores than other samples. As a result, quality of cookies added with 20% chestnut inner peel powder was the most suitable, and we suggest that chestnut inner peel is a good ingredient for increasing the consumer acceptability and functionality of cookies.

Black tea is rich in phenolic antioxidants that has shown diverse health benefits such as protection against cardiovascular diseases and cancers. Thus, it is rational to incorporate black tea into suitable food products such as sponge cakes to enhance their nutritional and functional qualities. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of the addition of black tea powder (BTP) on the quality of sponge cake. The pH of cakes ranged from 7.00~7.17, with no remarkable differences. Height decreased while baking loss rate and hardness significantly increased with increases in the content of BTP in the formulation (p<0.05). For crumb color values, $L^*-value$ decreased while $a^*$ and $b^*-values$ increased as a result of BTP substitution. 2,2-Diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) and 2,2'-azino-bis-3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulphonic acid (ABTS) radical scavenging activities were significantly increased (p<0.05) with increases in the content of BTP which were well correlated. Hedonic sensory results indicated that sponge cakes supplemented with 2~4% BTP obtained the most favorable acceptance scores. On the basis of the overall observations, sponge cakes supplemented with 2~4% BTP were found to be benefit from the functional properties of BTP, without compromising on consumer acceptance.
