This study was performed to determine the best conditions for preparing Toranbyung. We examined different boiling periods (0~20 min) and types of Gomyeong (pine nut, soy, black sesame, and chestnut powder), as recorded in "Sumunsasul". The boiled taros were evaluated for proximate composition, free sugar contents, and Hunter's color values. In addition, the sensory characteristics of Toranbyung boiled for different periods and prepared using different types of Gomyeong were investigated. The moisture, protein, fat, and ash contents of taro decreased by 83.42~84.61%, 1.25~1.31%, 0.08~0.11%, and 0.62~0.81%, respectively, as the length of boiling time increased. Fructose, glucose, and sucrose, the major free sugars found in taro, decreased by 0.17~0.33%, 0.16~0.29%, and 0.26~0.38%, respectively, as the length of boiling time increased. Sensory evaluation indicated no significant difference in the flavor and taste of Toranbyung boiled for different periods of time. However, Toranbyung boiled for 10 min was significantly better and was found to be the most acceptable among all the samples. Furthermore, sensory evaluation of Toranbyung prepared with different types of Gomyeong indicated that the Toranbyung prepared with soy powder was favored over Toranbyung prepared using other types of Gomyeong. In conclusion, we determine that the best conditions for preparing Toranbyung were boiling for 10 min and using soy powder as the Gomyeong.

The purpose of this study was to develop a standardized recipe of Hwajeun(glutinous rice pancake with flower) by evaluating various methods appeared in the literature. For this purpose, the effects of the volume and temperature of water used to make dough on the sensory and rheological characteristics of Hwajeun were investigated. This experiment consisted of sensory evaluation in acceptance and intensity(appearance, color, moistness, softness, chewiness, adhesiveness, taste and overall preference), objective evaluation by using texture analyser, color difference meter and measurement of water content and oil absorption ratio. The loss ratio of moisture contents between dough and cooked Hwajeun were 2.4 ~2.8%, and the oil absorption ratio of Hwajeun made by 2$0^{\circ}C$water for kneading increased in proportion to the increment of water added(p＜0.01). In terms of color, b value of Hwajeun made by 104$^{\circ}C$ salted water for kneading showed higher value compared to the others. In the two bite compression test, adhesiveness, springiness, gumminess and chewiness of Hwajeun made by 2$0^{\circ}C$ water(36%) for kneading showed significantly(p＜0.05) high value among the samples. As a result of sensory evaluation, Hwajeun made with 27% of 104$^{\circ}C$ salted water for kneading was most preferred in softness, chewiness, taste and overall preference

This experiment was conducted to enhance the colored potatoes utilization and to determine the biological activity of colored potato extracts. In order to understand the factors responsible for the potent anti-oxidant ability of colored potatoes, it has been evaluated for anti-oxidative activity using oxygen radical absorbance capacity (ORAC) assay. 'Hongyoung' extract was significant anti-oxidant activities in ORAC assay. About two-fold higher radical absorbance capacity was found in 'Hongyoung' compared to that in 'Jayoung'. The ability of 80% ethanol extracts from colored potatoes to influence the inhibitory activity of nitric oxide (NO) and nitric oxide synthase (iNOS), cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) has also been investigated. The various therapeutic benefit claims in the new functional medicinal usage of colored potatoes ascribed to the phenolic compounds and anthocyanin. This result revealed that the extracts of colored potatoes are expected to be good candidate for development into sources of free radical scavenger or COX-2 inhibiting agents.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the quality characteristics of mulberry extracts added with Omija (Schisandra chinensis Baillon) in order to determine the best conditions to enhance sour taste of mulberry extracts during manufacturing. The total acidity of Omija was 5.71%, which was 20 times that of mulberry; sour taste of mulberry extracts could be enhanced by adding Omija during the extraction period. Overall, we observed reduction of pH and soluble solid contents as well as increased total acidity and anthocyanin content with a higher Omija adding ratio. In terms of taste acceptability, which is the most important parameter of beverage development, OC-3 (added with 18.75% Omija) and OC-4 (added with 25% Omija) values were $4.20{\pm}0.75$ and $4.05{\pm}0.80$, respectively, for mulberry extracts with Omija. This result was significantly different (P<0.05) from the control group (without Omija addition), which showed an OC-3/OC-4 value of $2.30{\pm}1.24$. The results of this study indicate that Omija addition at a ratio of 18.75~25% and extraction period of 10~12 days are optimum conditions to improve sour taste when developing mulberry extracts.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the quality characteristics of cookies prepared with dropwort powder(0, 2, 4, 6, and 8%) for flour. The bulk density of cookie dough of groups with dropwort powder shows significantly differences when compared to the control group. The pH of cookie dough and cookies were decreased by addition of dropwort powder. The moisture content of the groups with dropwort powder was higher than that of the control group. The weight and width of the groups with dropwort powder was lower than those of the control group. The spread ratio of the groups with dropwort powder was lower but the loss rate of cookies was higher than those of the control group. In color, the L, a, and b value was decreased significantly by addition of dropwort powder. The hardness of the groups with 2% and 4% dropwort powder was higher than that of the control group. DPPH radical scavenging activity of the control group was 20.62%, whereas the groups with dropwort powder ranged from 32.11~65.10%. Sensory evaluation scores in terms of appearance, flavor, taste, texture, and overall preference of groups with 2% and 4% of dropwort powder did not show any significantly differences when compared to the control group. Based on the above results, using less than 4% of the dropwort powder would be proper to make cookies.

To explore cattail pollen powder as a functional food ingredient, we analyzed the general components of pollen powder, tested changes in the physical properties of dough containing the powder, and investigated the process ability of powder-containing dough in bread making by adding 3%, 6%, or 9% by weight of pollen powder to wheat flour. Cattail pollen powder consisted of (all w/w) 12.7-13.2% water, 15.7-17.8% crude protein, 1.3% crude fat, 7.5-7.7% free sugar, 14.7-18.6% crude fiber, 3.4-4.9% pollen, and 49.7-55.9% soluble nitrogen-free extract (NFE). Analysis of the physical properties of dough mixed with pollen powder showed that as more pollen powder was added, the absorption rate increased, but dough stability decreased. With increasing levels of cattail pollen powder, the falling number decreased, and amylase activity increased. Fermentability was highest in dough made with 3% by weight of pollen powder, and the bread product made from such dough had the greatest volume. As more cattail pollen powder was added, the moisture activity in dough tended to decrease to a greater extent than seen in control dough, and this tendency increased with time. We found that longer storage periods were associated with greater hardness and springiness, which indicated degradation in product quality. Therefore, it is suggested that bread products containing cattail pollen powder should be consumed within 3 days of preparation. In a taste survey, bread baked with 3% (w/w) cattail pollen powder scored highest in all questionnaire items.

Brownies containing whey powder (WP) with different levels of substitutions for wheat flour (0, 10, 20, 30, and 40% substitution for WP 0, WP 10, WP 20, WP 30, and WP 40, respectively) were prepared, and their properties were compared. Regarding appearance, the collapse of the sample surface noticeably started from WP 30. The moisture content was higher in samples containing WP than in the control (WP 0), and the weight of the brownie increased with WP content. As the WP amount increased, both the total and specific volumes of the brownies decreased. Regarding texture, a higher amount of WP resulted in a decrease in hardness, whereas adhesiveness increased significantly. The antioxidant activity also increased with increasing WP amount (from 35.28 to 51.47%). Regarding sensory characteristics, 20 or 30% WP in brownies increased mouth-feel properties, taste, and overall preference. Based on the above results, WP could improve the quality of brownies, and a substitution level of 20% could be the most appropriate.

The physicochemical and microbial characteristics of pickled cucumber prepared with dry salting method, which has been used for industry, were investigated. Salting and storage conditions were HSHT $(30\%,\;25^{\circ}C)$, MSMT $(21\%,\;15^{\circ}C)$, MSLT $(21\%,\;0^{\circ}C)$, LSMT $(15\%,\;15^{\circ}C)$ and LSLT $(15\%,\;0^{\circ}C)$. Acidity was lower, and pH was higher in higher salt concentration as well as lower temperature groups. At the storage of 165 days, acidity and pH reached to $0.21\%$ and 4, respectively in MSLT and HSHT, of which conditions fermentation was retarded, compared to the other groups. During storage of pickled cucumber, greenness (-a) of Hunter color system showed the highest in MSLT ranged from -10.70 to -8.08, while in LSMT, the lowest to 1.17. Total microbial and lactic acid bacteria number in HTST and MSLT were the lowest than in other groups, while tile highest in LSMT. Yeast was not detected in HSHT and MSLT after 36 days of storage, while higher in LSMT Texture profile analysis exhibited that fracturability (2,318 g and 2,318 g) and hardness (849 g and 702 g) were highest in HSHT and MSLT, compared to the other groups. Scores of over-all preference for MSLT and LSLT were higher with 8.8 and 7.6, respectively, compared to the other products (p<0.05). Based on these results, lower saltiness and lower storage temperature condition was better for pickled cucumber preparation in industry.
