The aim of this study was to determine the optimum addition amount of Job's tears flour, in place of rice flour, in the preparation of Yulmoo Jeolpyon (Job's tears rice cake). The moisture contents of the Jeolpyon samples with added Job's tears flour were 43-45%. With increasing additions of Job's tears flour, the L-value decreased, whereas the a- and b-values increased. In the mechanical evaluation of the Job's tears Jeolpyon, hardness decreased with increasing amounts of Job's tears flour. Cohesiveness, springiness, gumminess and chewiness were lower in the Jeolpyon samples with added Job's tears flour with more than 0% Job's tears flour, respectively. The adhesiveness did not differ significantly with the addition of Job's tears flour. In the sensory evaluation, overall acceptability was highest at the 20% level of Job's tear flour. In conclusion the Jeolpyon made with 20% Job's tear flour to rice flour was found to be the best formulation, in terms of its overall acceptability and textural qualities.

The Job's tear gruels were prepared by various mixing ratios, particle size and soaking times of Job's tear and rice flours, and the physical and sensory properties of these gruel samples were measured by using a Brabender visco-amylograph and sensory evaluation. Also, the changes in the pH and viscosity of the gruel samples stored for 14 days at 4$\^{C}$ were measured as the parameters of gruel quality. The results showed that the peak viscosity was decreased by increasing the ratio of Job's tear flours. The values of peak viscosity and consistency of rice and Job's tear flours increased as the particle size decreased. As the soaking time of rice and Job's tear flours increased, the initial pasting temperature decreased. In sensory characteristics, the nutty taste was increased as the Job's tear flour levels increased. Overall acceptability of Job's tear gruel was the highest in the one of rice and Job's tear flours at 50:50 ratio. During 14 days of storage, the pH and viscosity of Job's tear gruels were increased till the sixth day, and then decreased slightly.

The aim of this study was to identify the optimal ingredient-mixing ratio of Job's-tear and wheat flour subjected to extrusion. A modified distance-based mixture design analysis was chosen for the experimental design. The results showed that the bending failure force, the a-value, and the water absorbtion index (WAI) value had no correlation with the mixture ratio of Job's-tear and wheat flour. However, the diameter of the extrudates, the L- and b-values, and the water solubility index (WSI) value were all found to be correlated to the mixture ratio. While the first three values were determined using a linear model, the WSI value was determined using a quadratic model. The diameter and color had an inverse correlation to the mixture ratio: the higher the ratio of Job's-tear to wheat flour, the lower the diameter and darker the color. The L- and b-values were found to change in accordance with the mixture ratio of Job's-tear to wheat flour. The lowest WSI value was obtained at a 40:60 ratio of Job's-tear to wheat.
