This study was focused on identifying the difference of food preference according to body size of elementary school boys in Daejeon city. In order to measure the food preference, the degree of liking by means of a 5-point Hedonic scale was asked to 198 boys of 5th grade from six schools throughout Daejeon for 144 food items in 17 food groups composed of main dish, side dish and dessert : cooked rice, noodles or breads, as main dish, kimchi, tang.guk.zzigae, gui, zzim, bokeum, fried.pan-fried, jorim, muchim.namul or jangachi, as side dish, fruits, beverage, milk, rice cake or anacks, as dessert and for best preferred taste among five basic. The survey was conducted in rune, 1997 by questionnaires. Overall food preference of the subject was inclined to be higher in most of dessert food : fruits, beverage, milk or snacks, but to be lower in side dishes of Korean conventional food : jangachi, muchim, namul, jorim, kimchi and tang.guk .zzigae. The percentage of boys preferring cocked rice to noodle or bread as main dish was as much almost double in overweight boys as those of underweight or normal weight boys. None of the food group among 17 groups was significantly different in the food preference by body size of the subjects. However, food preference score of overweight group showed a trend to be higher in 11 food groups except less calorie-dense food groups such as fruits, noodles, rice cake, cooked rice, soup and stew and braised food (jorim) than normal or underweight group, and they seemed to prefer especially high-protein and high-fat foods. Being based on 3 points of preference score as the criterion for comparison, underweight group showed higher preference only in fruits group but showed lower preferences in 12 food groups among 17 groups than other groups.

Back-pyun is a kind of rice cake made by steaming rice flour added sugar, water and salt and garnished with shredded chestnuts, dates, mushrooms and pinenuts. The Back-pyun has been widely used in Korean celebrations. This study aimed to compare and determine the effects on sensory characteristics and texture of Back-pyun 1) when the proportion of glutinous rice, added i.1 making Back-pyun, is 0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, 20%, 25% and 30% 2) then it reheated after storage for 0,24, 48 and 72 hours. Evaluation was conducted through sensory evaluation and objective evaluation. The results are as follows : 1. In sensory evaluation, color of Back-pyun turned yellow as the addition level of glutinous rice increased and then by reheating after storage for 24, 48 and 73 hours. Coarseness was not significantly different as the addition level of glutinous rice increased before storage. But Back-pyun reheated after storage for 24,48 and 72 hours were significantly different by the addition level of glutinous rice. Softness, dryness and crumblyness tended to decrease as the addition level of glutinous rice increased and by reheating after storage for 24, 48 and 72 hours. The most favorite tendency on the appearance was at the addition level of glutinous rice of 5%. Texture and overall preference were better at the addition level from 10% to 20% than any other levels. 2. Rheometer measurement indicated that compression force, gumminess ana chewiness tended to increase as the addition level of glutinous rice increased and decrease by the storage conditions. But work ratio and recovered height did not have much effect the addition level of glutinous rice and the storage conditions. Compression force of Back-pyun (not reheated) tended to increase by the storage time and the addition level of glutious rice. Especially it showed remakably increasing tendency during 24 hours storage (at $4^{\circ}C$) 3. Moisture content tended to increase by the addition level of glutinous rice and decrease by the storage time. But moisture content of Back-pyun reheated after storage for 24 hours stowed the increasing tendency. 4. Softness of Back-pyun had significant relationship with compression force and work ratio. Dryness and crumblyness had significant relationship with work ratio. Therefore compression force and work ratio represented the texture of Back-pyun.

Eumsikjeoljo (integrity with food) originally came from the Andong district, where the Goseong Yi clan inherited a cookbook from their ancestor Lee Jeong-Rong (1798~1871). The cookbook was written in an antiquated style and is estimated to have been written around the year 1865. Details of the era and authorship are seldom available for the extant ancient cookbooks. The authors of these books and the period during which these books were precisely written were studied through the Eumsikjeoljo which is a repository of 46 cooking disciplines. Of these 10 deal with the practice of traditional Korean crispy snack making, 4 with rice cake making, 3 of the yeonbyeong kind, 19 examples of Korean side dish making, 6 recipes of the kimchi variety, 2 examples of paste-based recipes, and 2 instances of instructions on how to make vinegar-based extracts. Also, in Eumsikjeoljo, there are descriptions of 29 different ways to brew rice wine. Of these, Danyang wine among the Leehwa wines and 13 others account for over 44% of the content. Leeyang wine and Sogok wine are represented by 10 different varieties and constitute around 34% of the entries. Samyang wine and Baek-il wine, along with 6 others, constitute 21% of the entries. The secret recipes of the Goseong Yi clan in the Andong district were recorded so that they could be transferred to the descendants of the clan. An inspection of the recipes and wine brewing techniques recorded in Eumsikjeoljo provides a clearer picture of the mid-1800s Andong noble family's traditional food habits and simultaneously sheds light on the late Joseon dynasty's food culture.

We prepared Tofu-sulgi by adding tofu and then analyzed the final product in terms of its nutritional quality, rheological characteristics and sensory tests. While the calorie quantity of Sulgi with Tofu was relatively low compared to that of Baeksulgi, it contained the dietary fiber, calcium and iron that were not present in Baeksulgi. Since Baeksulgi holds a large amount of carbohydrates, it shows a higher weight due to its dense fiber. On the other hand, Sulgi with Tofu showed a relatively low level of tofu protein despite the increased amount of tofu protein. This demonstrated the soft characteristics of Sulgi with Tofu. Also, the results of the sensory test showed that Sulgi with Tofu exhibited a higher preference than Baeksulgi in terms of its taste, flavor and fiber content. The preparation method of Sulgi with Tofu in this study used the natural grinding of tofu without removing the moisture. Also the use of both non-glutinous and glutinous rice flour that can be obtained easily in the public market, are convenient due to their characteristics of easy storage and no property change. Therefore, the preparation method of Sulgi with Tofu is quite convenient as compared to that of traditional Dduk (Korean rice cake) including Baeksulgi. From the perspectives of nutritional content, rheological characteristics and taste preference, Sulgi with Tofu fared better than Baeksulgi. Considering the overall quality characteristics of Sulgi with Tofu, we believe that the addition of tofu could contribute positively toward the quality characteristics of Sulgi.
