The objective of this study was to characterize and determine contents of vitamin E isomers (alpha-, beta-, gamma-, delta-tocopherols and tocotrienols) in different steamed rice dishes, with or without other grains. Five different rice dishes were evaluated for the vitamin E nutritional value as major Korean staple foods. They were plain steamed rice (SR) and steamed rice mixed with barley (SRBa), red bean (SRRB), black bean (SRBB), or multi-grains (SRMG) containing a mixture of black rice, barley, red beans, and black beans. Vitamin E isomers were extracted from five grams of freeze-dried samples with hexane after saponification. An analytical method, using a normal-phase HPLC with a UV detector, was developed and used to determine the amount of each vitamin E component. The results showed that SR contained three vitamin E isomers (alpha-tocopherol, alpha-tocotrienol, and gamma-tocotrienol). Alpha-tocopherol and gamma-tocotrienol were de-tected from all samples while only SRBB contained beta-tocopherol and beta-tocotrienol. SRMG showed the highest (3.9$\mu$g/g dry wt) and SRRB showed the lowest alpha-tocopherol (1.3$\mu$g/g dry wt) contents. SRBB contained about 5 to 16 times more gamma-tocopherol (19.7$\mu$g/g dry wt) than othe.5. These results suggested that adding black bean or multi-grains can dramatically improve the vitamin E nutritional values compared to the plain steamed rice (SR). Information obtained from this study can be directly related to the amount of vitamin E intake and can be used to balance the diet for Koreans.

This studies were engaged to investigate the potential us of Curcuma aromatica Salab. as a food ingredients. The antimicrobial activity of Curcuma aromatica Salab. extract (CE) and effect on shelf life of the cooked rice were examined. The antimicrobial activity of CE showed apparently against Bacillus cereus, B. subtilis and B. megaterium. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of CE was 0.15% for B. cereus md 0.2% for B. subtilis and B. megaterium. The antimicrobial activity of CE remained relatively high after heat treatments(30 min at 80 and $100^{\circ}C$, 15 min at $121^{\circ}C$). The shelf life of cooked rice containing above 0.05% CE increased more 1 or 2 days than that of control at $30^{\circ}C$, The texture of cooked rice was improved by addition of above 0.01% CE. The sensory quality of cooked rice with CE did not show significant difference between 0.00% and 0.05% in taste and overall acceptability but decreased above 0.10% in taste, color, flavor and overall acceptability.

This study aimed to examine variations in the texture profile analysis (TPA) of cooked rice in relation to the instrumental parameter conditions. The TPA of four types of ready-to-eat, white rice products was conducted in two levels of compression ratio (30 and 70%) and cross-head speed (0.5 and 1.0 mm/s). The properties of the four rice products significantly or non-significantly differed, depending on the instrumental parameter condition. Agglomerative hierarchical clustering, based on the five TPA properties such as hardness, adhesiveness, cohesiveness, chewiness, and springiness, revealed that clustering of the four rice products varied with the instrumental parameter condition. Additionally, the ratio of adhesiveness to hardness, an index of rice texture quality, showed a variation depending on the two instrumental parameter conditions. In conclusion, our findings demonstrate that the texture profile, texture-based sample clustering, and the ratio of adhesiveness to hardness vary with the compression ratio and cross-head speed in the TPA.

In order to establish methods of potato processing for mixed cooking with rice as main dish, the size and shape of potato granules and favorable ratio of potato granules to rice for cooking were studied preliminary. As the results cylindrical shaped potato granule of around 6mm in diameter and $10{\sim}13mm$ in length are more favorable than rectangular shape for mixed cooking according to panel test. Mixed cooking of 30% of treated potato granules with rice is the most favorable in the point of palatability.

The aim of this study was to investigate the texture change of cooked rice within a short time after cooking. Using four instant rice brands, the texture change within 30 min after cooking was measured by the texture profile analysis (TPA) method for hardness, adhesiveness, cohesiveness, chewiness, and springiness with different compression ratios (30, 70%) and cross-head speeds (0.5, 1.0 mm/s). In the case of cohesiveness, adhesiveness, and chewiness, there were significant differences in the rice textures at 20 to 30 min after cooking compared to that in the sample immediately after cooking. In particular, adhesiveness showed significant differences at 10 min after cooking. However, there were little significant differences within 30 min for springiness. In conclusion, when measuring cooked rice texture, it is desirable to measure it, if possible, within 10 to 20 min after cooking.

We investigated the effect of green tea extract (GTE) on the sensory properties, color value and shelf-life characteristics (pH, titratable acidity and total bacteria count) of cooked rice. Sensory attributes such as taste, flavor and overall acceptability were significantly higher in cooked rices prepared with 500, 1000 ppm of GTE than those of control group (p<0.01) but there was no significant difference among samples (p<0.01) in textural quality. Redness, yellowness and total color difference (${\Delta}E$) were higher when GTE was added. When cooked rice was putrefied, the values of pH, titratable acidity and total bacteria count were about 5.8, 0.3% and $10^8$ cfu/g, respectively. The shelf life of cooked rice was prolonged to 1-2 day by adding 500 and 1000 ppm of GTE as compared to control group.

본 연구는 뽕잎추출액의 농도물 1.0, 1.5, 2.0%로 달리하여 일반 멥쌀에 코팅한 뽕잎쌀의 가수율을 달리하여 취반한 후 밥맛을 관능검사하여 최적가수율을 알아내고 뽕잎쌀의 수분함량, 수분흡수율, 뽕잎쌀밥의 수분함량, 색도 및 물성을 측정하고 뽕잎쌀밥의 구조를 SEM으로 관찰하여 뽕잎쌀의 최적코팅율을 알아보았다. 뽕잎쌀의 수분함량은 뽕잎추출액을 코팅하지 않은 쌀보다 낮았으며 이중 2.0%코팅한 쌀의 수분함량이 가장 낮았다. 뽕잎쌀의 최대수분흡수율은 침수 30분에 20%의 수화율을 보였으나 코팅율과 침지수온(1$0^{\circ}C$, 2$0^{\circ}C$, 3$0^{\circ}C$)에서의 유의적 차이는 없었다.

The sensory properties and the change of lipid content of cooked rice were investigated to evaluate the effects of cooker (electric and pressure cooker) and variety ($Japonica and Indica\timesJaponica variety$). Overall preference of cooked rices were higher in the pressure cooker than the electric cooker. In the case of electric cooker, Japonica variety was prefered than $I\timesJ$ variety. Free lipid contents were reduced and bound lipid contents were increased after cooking. The bound lipid contents had a correlation with shiness of cooked rice(r=-0.69).

Green tea (Camellia sinensis L.) is consumed as a popular beverage worldwide, particularly in Asia. In this study, the effects of green tea powder addition on the antioxidant activities and texture properties of cooked rice were investigated. Texture analysis was carried out by texture profile analysis. Total polyphenols and total flavonoids were determined using spectrophotometric methods, and antioxidative activities were determined based on DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities, reducing power, and lipid peroxidation inhibitory activity. Antioxidant contents and antioxidative activities increased with a higher amount of green tea powder. However, there was no difference in texture properties between cooked rice with green tea powder and the control group. In conclusion, addition of green tea powder to cooked rice would be useful to increase antioxidant contents and antioxidative activities without alteration of texture properties.

The ways of preservation of chotkal which are classified by the principles of fermentation, are analyzed and interpreted. Chotkal is preserved mainly as two forms; one is chot and the other is shikhae. The fact that shikhae is preserved only in the eastern area can be attributed to two main reasons; (1) raw materials are available throughout four seasons and (2) relatively less production of salt. Chotkal is further classified into nine different ways of preservation and shikhae into fourteen. Regional characteristics for chot include that (1) in western part, Kechot is preserved in salty water (2) in central part Origuljot is fermented either with salt and powdered red pepper, or with salt, powdered red pepper and cooked cereal, (3) in southern part, freshwater shrimp with (1) salt only, (2) salt and powdered red pepper, (3) salt and cooked cereal, (4) salt, powdered red pepper and cooked cereal, (4) in northern part, fish with salt and powdered red pepper. Those for shikhae include that malt is used in southern part, shredded radish in northern part and cooked cereal more in southern part than in northern part.
