The objective of this study was to evaluate physicochemical and sensory properties, the texture profile, and antioxidant activity of ginseng extract-supplemented quark cheese as a new cheese product intended to improve public health. After addition of less than 1.0% ginseng extract, the moisture content of quark significantly decreased, while fat and protein levels increased, although microbial counts and lactose and ash contents were not affected significantly (p<0.05). In terms of color, $L^*$ values decreased significantly with increasing concentration of ginseng extract, while $a^*$ values increased significantly (p<0.05). The results of texture profiling showed that cohesiveness and springiness were unaffected, whereas hardness, gumminess, and chewiness increased significantly. The 2,2'-azino-bis-3-ethylbenzothiazoline-6-sulphonic acid (ABTS) radical-scavenging activities of the cheese fortified with 0%, 0.5%, or 1.0% of the ginseng extract were $4.22%{\pm}0.12%$, $20.14%{\pm}1.34%$, and $56.32%{\pm}1.54%$, respectively. The results of sensory analysis indicated that bitterness, ginseng odor, and aftertaste significantly improved with increasing concentration of ginseng extract (p<0.05). However, there was no significant difference in the overall quality attributes of quark cheese between the no-supplement control and samples with less than 0.5% of the ginseng extract (p>0.05), suggesting that these products could help to promote public health as functional foods.

Meat products have become prevalent in people's diet, and sausages, with the Korean diet getting more westernized in modern times. In particular, emerged as one of the favorite and the most consumed food products in Korea. In order to attain the best recipe to maximize the sausage's sensual taste, we have attempted to experiment and to analyze the differences in characteristic tastes of the sausages with varying increments of crushed red pepper of 0%, 2.5%, 5,%, 7.5%, and 10%. The followings are our findings from our experiment. As the result shows that red pepper, instead of nitrite, added sausage has twice more red chromaticity than those not added, sausage can be colored in red solely with natural materials when sold in the market. pH and moisture decreased as more red pepper was added, it did not show large difference. Texture results showed that the original sausage became harder and its viscosity decreased as more red pepper was added. Cohesion appeared to be similar and red pepper added sausage was munchier and more flexible. In the results of sensory test, 5% of red pepper added sausage showed the highest score but did not have any significant difference. For each items, red pepper added sausage got higher scores and by supplementing it would be seen as a useful additive in developing natural color sausages.

The study produced a functional sponge cake added with 0~20% proportion of excellently functional flaxseed powder aimed at obtaining basic data for the possibility to develop new products through a physiochemical properties assessment and a sensual assessment of the product. The water content was the lowest in the control, at 27.63%, and the 5~20% water content following the increase in added flaxseed powder failed to display a significant difference (p<0.05). The pH of the dough was 6.77~6.44, and displayed a significant difference according to the added amount of flaxseed powder (p<0.05). The specific weight of the dough appeared to be 0.40~0.51, and displayed a significant increase according to the added amount of flaxseed powder. The DPPH radical scavenging activity of the sponge cake added with flaxseed powder was 12.8%, and the plot added with flaxseed powder displayed a significantly higher percentage of 22.34~55.57% than the control plot. Crumb color change had increased values for value a and value b, and a significantly decreased L value. Texture significantly increased according to the increase in hardness, gumminess, chewiness, and cohesiveness, while springiness significantly decreased. Sensual assessment displayed a high preference for the 10% flaxseed powder additive plot in all items including appearance, taste, color, flaror, softness, and overall acceptability. The assessment of physiochemical properties and sensuality of the sponge cake added with flaxseed powder revealed that 10% flaxseed powder is suitable as the optimum proportion.

Traditional Jeju tofu with a hard texture was manufactured by traditional method with a compounded coagulant. The processing condition for industrial production was optimized by determining soaking of soybean, extraction and heat treatment of soymilk as well as concentration and composition of coagulant. Maximum yield of soymilk was obtained by grinding one part of soaked soybean with eight parts of water, and the soluble solid of soymilk was about 8$^{\circ}$Brix. The free thiol group in soymilk was maximally exposed by heating at 10$0^{\circ}C$ for 2 min. A vacuum cooker for heating soymilk was effective for the improvement of yield and texture properties of tofu. The hardness of traditional Jeju tofu was obtained by increasing pressing time and drying by a fan instead of soaking in cold water. Optimization of a traditional tofu production resulted in the increase of total yield and improvement of quality control. Texture of traditional Jeju tofu prepared in industrial production scale was analyzed by instrumental analysis and sensory evaluation. Traditional Jeju tofu showed higher score in the hardness, roasting taste and overall preference compared with a commercial tofu, showing significant difference in 5% significant level..

Cysteine, a thiol group-containing reducing agent which is known to relax the strain and increase the viscosity of dough, was added to Korean and imported wheat flour noodles to investigate the effect on the properties of raw, dried, and cooked noodles and to determine the optimum cooking time and amount to improve the color of noodles. Addition of cysteine up to 1% of flour (8.25 mmole/100 g flour) was not effective in increasing the brightness of raw and dried noodles and in changing the water activity of dried noodle. However, cysteine improved the brightness of cooked noodle made of both Korean and imported wheat flours. Also, there were notable differences in cooking and sensory properties of cysteine-added cooked noodles such as less firm and stickier texture due to the extraction of organic compounds into broth. When the noodles were cooked for their optimum cooking time, no difference was noticed in the texture and overall preference regardless of the addition of cysteine. Overall, the addition of 1 % cysteine increased the brightness of cooked noodles and reduced the cooking time.

The study was carried out to evaluate the storage and quality characteristics of Duteoptteok added with mugwort. The content of moisture and crude fiber in Duteoptteok significantly increased while that of the crude protein and crude ash decreased by adding 10, 20 and 30% of mugwort. As for the color value, the L, a, b value of Duteoptteok decreased as the amount of mugwort increased. Also, the L value decreased by the increase of the storage period. However, the a and b value didn't show any significant difference. For the texture characteristics, as the amount of mugwort increased, the hardness, springiness, cohesiveness, gumminess and chewiness decreased; however, the adhesiveness increased. Moreover, the hardness, adhesiveness, gumminess and chewiness increased according to the changes of the storage period, while the springiness and cohesiveness decreased. According to higher amount of mugwort, the gelatinization degree increased while the retrogradation degree decreased. The viable cell count and yeast and mold count showed a decreasing tendency as the amount of mugwort increased while they increased by increasing the storage period. The results from this study suggests that the quality characteristics of Duteoptteok improved and storage period became longer by adding mugwort.

This study was conducted to develop naengmyon added with persimmon leaf powder. To find out the proper mixing ratio, physicochemical properties were investigated. There was a little difference in water binding capacity between control and naengmyon added with persimmon leaf powder. Amylogram showed that initial pasting temperature and peak point value were increased as increment of adding amount of persimmon leaf powder. After cooking, the weight of a naengmyon was increased but cooking loss and turbidity were decreased with increment of persimmon leaf powder. At a glance of color difference values, there was a distinctive boundary near at 6%. But similar at over 6% as increasing adding amount of persimon leaf powder texture characteristics such as hardness, adhesiveness, cohesiveness, springness and gumminess were declined. From overall experimental result, the proper mixing ratio of persimmon leaf powder for naengmyon was 4%.
