The objective of this research was to compare the antioxidant activities of meat broths served with oriental noodles. For this purpose, we estimated DPPH, ABTS radical scavenging, and SOD-like activities as well as reducing power of meat broth of oriental noodles such as Korean, Chinese and Japanese style. DPPH radical scavenging activities of Korean, Chinese and Japanese meat broth at the concentration of 2 $mg/m{\ell}$ were 2.78%, 25.37%, and 40.74%, respectively. The Korean and Chinese meat broths exhibited little hydroxyl radical scavenging activities, whereas Japanese broth showed 59.06% hydroxyl radical scavenging activity at the concentration of 0.5 $mg/m{\ell}$. The peroxy radical scavenging activities ($IC_{50}$) of Korean, Chinese and Japanese meat broth were 0.121 $mg/m{\ell}$, 0.222 $mg/m{\ell}$, and 0.013 $mg/m{\ell}$, respectively. The Korean and Japanese meat broth exhibited higher ABTS radical scavenging activity than that of Chinese.

An instrumental analysis of Sanyakbyung was carried out along with sensory evaluation to find out how its quality characteristics changed by the addition of glutinous rice flour(0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40% and 50%). The moisture content of Sanyakbyung decreased in proportion to the increment of glutinous rice flour. In terms of color, L-value increased depending on the increment of glutinous rice whereas a-value and b-value showed a decrease. This could be accounted for by two factors: one is that the protein contained in yam flour contributed to black coloring and the other is that the color of yam flour itself contributed ostensively to the tint of blackish coloring, and also to the tint of yellow and red coloring. ln the two bite compression test, the hardness, gumminess, chewiness, and cohesiveness of Sanyakbyung decreased depending on the increment of glutinous rice flour. The springiness did not show any significant variation among the samples. That is, the more yam flour was added, the more cohesive and gummy Sanyakbyung was produced. There were significant differences(p<0.05) in the sensory characteristics of the samples in which Sanyakbyung with 10% glutinous rice flour was most preferred in color, those with 20% in flavor, and those with 40% in taste. Adhesiveness and consistency in the palate responses also showed significant differences among samples in which the sample with 40% glutinous rice flour was most favored in consistency. When the content of yam increased, the gumminess also increased. Generally, Sanyakbyung with soft but less gummy texture was preferred to strong gummy one which was easily stuck to teeth. In the overall acceptance, Sanyakbyung with 40% glutinous rice four was most preferred.

This study evaluated the awareness and recognition of Tangpyeongchae by university students in Chungnam province. A total of 416 questionnaires were analyzed using the SPSS software program (version 21.0). The results were summarized as follows. The students compared of food and nutrition majors (59.4%) and non-food and nutrition majors (40.6%). This survey was performed from May 20 to Jun 8, 2015. More food and nutrition major students got better impression after eating Tangpyeongchae than non-food and nutrition majors. Among the students, 59.4% was not aware that Tangpyeongchae was derived from Tangpyeongchaek, and 57.7% didn't know that it was a Korean royal cuisine. Food and nutrition major students knew more of the background story for the dish than non-food and nutrition major students. The corresponding level of recognition for Tangpyeongchae as a dish representing the image of Korea with a combination of the 5 cardinal colors, known as obangsaek was high, at 4.27 and 4.17, respectively out of 5. Over 60% of the students answered Tangpyeongchae's image with the taste of Korea, followed by healthy food, harmony, nutritious food, diet food and tasty food. These results suggest that may have great potential for globalization as a traditional dish with the image and taste of Korea.

This study was reviewed the changes in main ingredients, seasonings and cooking methods of Tangpyeongchae in Korean cook books and literatures published from the 1700s to the 1960s. The first published books about Tangpyeongchae were in Kosasibijib and Kyongdojabji, written in 1783 and the late 1700s, respectively. Tangpyeongchae, a representative traditional Korean dish that was royal cuisine offered at ritual events in the Chosun Dynasty, was called Cheongpochae in the royal court. It was a dish made by mixing cheongpomuk (mung bean gel), meat, dropwort, mung bean sprout, egg strips and laver. This dish has been seasoned with vinegar, soy sauce, black pepper, garlic, green onion, red pepper, salt, sugar, sesame oil and sesame salt since the early 1900s. Dropwort, egg strips, laver, pine nut (powder), red pepper powder, and red pepper threads were used as garnishes. Tangpyeongchae was made by mixing cheongpomuk with other ingredients and seasonings until the late 1800s. Since the early 1900s Tangpyeongchae has been seasoned first with other ingredients and then mixed cheongpomuk.

Jeon refers to a type of Korean cuisine used as a side dish, made with various ingredients such as meat, vegetables, or fish, mixed with flour batter and coated with egg batter and then pan-fried on both sides with oil so that heat spreads through them well. The aim of this study was to provide a cornerstone of further research on Korean dietary life, by reviewing types, recipes and names of Jeon recorded in ancient cookbooks (Korean literatures) and by analyzing changes in recipes to make Jeon, which our ancestors used wisely as one type of side dish. Considering developments and changes recorded in old documents, the Jeon recipe appeared relatively later than the recipes for grilling, steaming et al, which had been developed much earlier, and it had not been recorded until the 1600s. Changes of Jeon recipes by time period are as follows. In the 1600s, there were three recipes: frying only with grain batter after preparation of ingredients, frying right after preparation of ingredients, and putting ingredients on already fried watery batter. These three recipes were still used in the 1700s, in addition to a new recipe, in which ingredients were oil-fried to be skewered. Today's recipe in which prepared ingredients are fried after getting coated with flour and egg only appeared in 1800s. This has been the main recipe for Jeon ever since. In that time period, there was more variety of recipes and ingredients than before. For instance, Jeon was used for soup or steamed dishes instead of being served as a dish itself. Buchimgae with mixed ingredients was also considered Jeon. In the 1900s, there appeared more names for Jeon as more sorts of ingredients got used, even though there were no new recipes for Jeon. The above-mentioned historical records show that traditional recipes for Jeon have been applied to various dishes, using diverse ingredients, and it might be a smart solution to today's problematic dietary habits involving excessive intake of nutrients, in that it provides a healthy way to add fat. In the same sense, the recipe for Jeon can play an active role in internationalization of Korean foods, in which healthiness is a main feature. According to ancient documents, the recipes for Jeon were used even for meals that were not side dishes, such as Jun-Gwa (Jung-Gwa), Jun-Yak and fried rice-cake. Also, there were dishes using the same recipes even without carrying the name of Jeon, like Buchim or Jijim. This might be worthy of further examination in culinary science.

Studies on the tenderizing effect of fruits has been limited even though fig, kiwifruit, pear, and pineapple cultivated in Korea are utilized commonly during cooking for their proteolytic properties. Therefore, the characteristics of these fruits were investigated by treating beef with their crude protease extracts. The protease effects of crude protease extract from the fruits on casein and myofibrilar protein were in the following order : pineapple > kiwifruit > fig > pear. Electrophoretic analysis results found that pineapple, kiwifruit, and fig cleaved myosin heavy chain into smaller fragments. The myofibrilar fragmentation ratio of crude protease extracts was the highest for pineapple whileas the lowest for pear. Ground fruits (5% and 10%) increased amounts of soluble nitrogen and decreased shear force of beef. Pineapple was the most effective while pear was the least effective. Decrease in springiness and gumminess was observed by texture profile analysis of beef treated with fruits, especially pineapple and kiwifruit. Among the 5% treatments, pineapple and kiwifruit produced the highest tenderness. Additionally, 10% treatment was less preferable than the 5% treatment.

Several commercial soybean oils were stored at $20^{\circ}C,\;40^{\circ}C$ and $60^{\circ}C$ with daily exposure of fluorescent light for 12 hours and evaluated their rancidity by headspace gas chromatographic analysis of pentanal and hexanal. The data of gas chromatographic analysis was compared with organoleptic flavor evaluation. For headspace gas chromatographic analysis, the volatile compounds were recovered by porous polymer trap and flushed into a fused silica capillary column at $250^{\circ}C$, The pentanal and hexanal separated were identified by gas chromatography and gas chromatography-mass spectrometric method. The results showed that the contents of pentanal and hexanal were linearly increased during storage for 100 days. A very simple linear relationship was found between organoleptic flavor scores and amounts of two volatile compounds with very high correlation coefficient. A similar linear relationship was also obtained for acid and peroxide value with sensory data. This results suggested the possible implication of pentanal and hexanal as an quality index for rancidity evaluation of soybean oil.

There were fifty two kinds of fermented soybean sauce before 17th century thirteen recorded in ${\ulcorner}$Sangayorock${\lrcorner}$, two in ${\ulcorner}$Sasichanyo${\lrcorner}$, one in ${\ulcorner}$Yongjechongwha${\lrcorner}$, nine in ${\ulcorner}$Soowonjabbang${\lrcorner}$, one in ${\ulcorner}$Domoondaejak${\lrcorner}$, six in ${\ulcorner}$Dongyoebogam${\lrcorner}$, four in ${\ulcorner}$Gushangchalyo${\lrcorner}$, five in ${\ulcorner}$Guhwangboyubang${\lrcorner}$, two in ${\ulcorner}$Yorock${\lrcorner}$, four in ${\ulcorner}$Chisengyoram${\lrcorner}$ and five in ${\ulcorner}$Joobangmoon${\lrcorner}$. These books had thing to know when making fermented soybean sauce like kinds of soybean sauce, how to make it, its ingredients and quantities to be used, how to make fermented soybean sauce in haste, and how to remake wrong made fermented soybean sauce, etc. Before 17th century, fermented soybean malt was divided into two kinds the only soybean malt and the mixed soybean malt that had bean, wheat, wheat flour and wheat bran. The bean only soybean malt was further divided into mashed soybean malt (Beans were steamed and mashed into past.) and unmashed soybean malt (Beans maintained their shape without being mashed.) while mashed soybean malts were made in Winger, in January of February, unmashed and mixed soybean malts were made in Summer, in July. When made fermented soybean sauce, mashed and unmashed soybean malts were used as they were and mixed soybean malt was dried and powdered for use. Fermented soybean sauce before 17th century could be classified by the features of soybean malts being used, Normal fermented soybean sauce was made from bean only soybean malts and other ingredients. Shi(시) was made from unmashed soybean malts, in which beans maintained their shape, and Gowhajang and Jeupjang were made from mixed soybean and wheat bran. Fermented soybean sauce was also made from old fermented soybean sauce, yeast. water leftover after boiling bean leaves, and soybean chaff without soybean malt. There were also side dish type soybean sauce like Kongjaban today and fish and meat sauce made from flesh ingredients. To make fermented soybean sauce in haste, the soybean sauce was heated. Beside there were how to maintain fermented soybean sauce and how to remake wrong made fermented soybean sauce.

In this study, we investigated the names and various types of "kwa-jung" along with their recipes and ingredients occurring in Korean cookbooks published before the 17th century. The kwa-jungs were classified into 7 groups including Yoomilkwa, Yookwa, Dasik, Junkwa, Kwapyun, Yutganjung and Dang. A total of 72 kinds of kwa-jung were found. 26 kinds of Yoomilkwa, 18 kinds of Yookwa, 7 kinds of Dasik, 10 kinds of Junkwa, 1 kind of Kwapyun, 3 kinds of Yutganjung and 8 kinds of Dang. Among the types of Yoomilkwa, Yackwa was recognized as the best food according to the references. Also the cooking methods for items had a tendency to become simpler as society became modernized. Original and rare Ingredients were often substituted with other items that could be found more easily where people lived As recorded, the Yookwa group included kangyung, sanja, and bingsakwa. And as society became modernized, people tended to buy Yookwa in the store rather than making it at home due to its complicated and often difficult cooking process. The Dasik items were a kneaded mixture of flour, or the flour of chestnuts, with honey. These were formed into various patterns like birds, animals, butterflies, tree leaves and flowers, or as ki-wha by using printing cooking utensils Honey was used as a sweetener and as a combining material. The Junkwa consisted of roots or fruits that could be easily obtained these cooked or raw foodstuffs were then mixed with sugar and simmered. The Kwapyun used sour fruit juices as a main ingredient. These were then combined with sugar and simmered and allowed to harden. Then they were cut into square shapes after cooling. Yutkangjung was a mixture of yut, chochung, honey or syrup and pine nuts. which was combined over low heat. After mixing and stirring it was cut into square shapes. Finally, the Yut was typically cooked with grains and powdered malt and stirred until thickened.

Shelf-life dating of cooked and heat sterilized food was carried out with the use of principal component analysis (PCA). Changes in color, pH, acidity and sensory properties were measured and analyzed during storage at 20, 30 and $40^{\circ}C$. Acceptability of sample was decreased during storage, shelf-life of sample was determined 1.5, 3 and 3 months at 20, 30 and $40^{\circ}C$, respectively. Application of PCA to quality evaluation, principal component (PC) 1 dominated 49.6% of total variation and PC 2 expressed 28.8%. The rate of change of PC 1 to storage time was 1.3 with increasing temperature of $10^{\circ}C$, and close to shelf-life determined by accepability at 20 and $40^{\circ}C$. Therefore, PCA was applicable to evaluate the quality, predict the shelf-life and investigate the quality parameter of food during storage.
