This study was performed to investigate the quality characteristics of noodles made from four different potato varieties: Atlantic, Go-un, Sae-bong, Jin-sun, and wheat flour. Quality characteristics of five noodles were analyzed by general components analysis, cooking quality (rate of water absorption, cooking loss, and volume increase), and mechanical textural properties. Some variations existed in wheat- or potato-based noodles for the general components analysis, but no clear trend was observed. Higher values in the rates of water absorption, cooking loss, and volume increase were observed for the wheat flour noodle, while some variations were observed for potato noodles depending on the variety. The wheat flour noodles exhibited higher values of textural characteristics obtained from the texture profile analysis, except for adhesiveness. Higher gluten contents as well as lower ash contents in the wheat flour noodles compared to the potato noodles are thought to be the two key factors contributing to this finding.

To evaluate a possible effects of instant buckwheat noodle on hepatic and serum lipids profiles, apparent digestibilities and growth rate, male young rats were fed diets containing sucrose as a control group, instant 100% wheat flour noodle, or instant wheat noodle fortified with either 10% or 30% buckwheat flour as experimental groups for 4 weeks. Weight gain and feed intake in the two buckwheat noodle fed groups were similar to those of the wheat flour fed groups. In addition, no significant differences were found in the apparent digestibilities among the groups experimented. There were no differences in the hepatic and serum cholesterol levels due to the diets. However, Buckwheat noodle group showed a trend to decrease the liver and serum concentration of triacylglycerol, compared to the sucrose and 100% wheat flour groups. The addition of buckwheat flour to wheat flour up to 30% seemed to be effective in lowering the hepatic triacylglycerol level. After 10hr fasting, the serum glucose level of the buckwheat noodle group was similar to the levels of the other groups. The presented results indicate that instant noodle containing buckwheat at the level of 30% has a mild hypotriglyceridemic effects, and no adverse effects on the digestion of macronutrients in rats.

Mulberry leaves noodles were prepared with composite flour by the addition of various levels of mulberry leaves powder of 100 mesh particle site. The characteristics of cooked noodle including color, texture, cooking properties were measured, and sensory evaluation was performed. The L and a values of cooked noodle decreased as more wheat flour was substiruted with mulberry leaves powder. And the b value of noodle containing mulberry leaves powder was higher than control, but b value did not increase as the ratio of powder increased. The increase in cooking weight and volume was greater with cooked noodles of higher content of mulberry leaves powder. The turbidity of soup and eluted solid content increased as the content of powder increased, indicating higher cooking loss. There was not much difference in hardness among cooked noodles, but cohesiveness and springiness decreased as the ratio of mulberry leaves powder increased, while adhesiveness increased. The results of sensory evaluation showed that cooked noodles containing 4% and 6% mulberry leaves powder were acceptable as much as wheat four noodle in terms of color, texture, taste and flavor. But the overall acceptability of mulberry leaves noodle was lower than wheat now noodle.

Textural properties of the cooked wheat noodles prepared from 5 Korean wheat varieties (Woori, Yeunpa, Allgeuru, Geuru, and Tapdong), and 3 foreign wheat varieties (ASW, WW and DNS) were evaluated by mechanical and sensory analyses, and their correlations to the physicochemical properties of the flours were examined. Cooking loss for noodle was negatively correlated with protein content, and weight increase during cooking showed a positive correlation with damaged starch content. From the mechanical tests, hard wheats (Tapdong and DNS) showed greater values for hardness, chewiness and tensile strength of the noodles than soft wheats. Foreign soft wheats (ASW and WW) showed relatively lower values for these attributes than the Korean soft wheats. Among the mechanical tests, multi-blade compression shear test had better correlations to the sensory characteristics than 10% compression, repeated compression and tensile tests. Among the flour characteristics, protein content was the most determining factor for the textural properties of noodle. Amylose increased the tenderness and slipperiness, but decreased internal firmness of the noodle. The Korean soft wheat noodles showed relatively darker color for the cooked noodle than WW or ASW. From acceptability test for noodle, Geuru was most preferred among the tested wheat varieties.

Quality characteristics of dough and noodles prepared from Korean wheat flours (Gru and Tapdong) were evaluated by substituting foreign wheat flours and starch in the formula. Korean wheat flours showed greater water absorption and weakness as well as protein and ash contents, but lower stability than the foreign wheat (control) By increasing substituted foreign wheat flours, water absorption of domestic Gru and Tapdong decreased. Dough development time decreased for Tapdong by substituting up to 30％ with foreign wheat flours. When imported wheat flours added in Gru and Tapdong, weakness of dough was decreased. Adhesiveness of dough was increased in all samples according to water adding, and Gru particulary showed the most high adhesiveness at 65% water and 10~20% replacement. From the mechanical texture test, Tapdong noodles were increased in cutting force by increasing amounts of imported wheat but decreased in extension distance. However, Cru noodles showed the opposite tendency. Hardness, adhesiveness, and chewiness of noodles were increased in all samples by increasing amounts of substitution with imported starch. As a result of cooked noodles test, Korean wheat noodles showed relatively lower values in cutting force and extension distance than in those of the control Studies of noodle-related characteristics of Korean wheat flours indicated that domestic soft wheat such as Gru might have high quality above the foreign wheat in noodle preparation by adding flours containing high amylose or low gluten.

Noodles were made from composite flours based on barley or sweet potato/wheat flour and their quality was assessed to obtain the following results. 1) In noodle sheet and dried noodle formation, barley flour could substitute 100% and sweet potato flour, 70% of wheat flour and their textural characteristics were improved by addition of glyceryl monostearate and sodium polycrylate. 2) Textural parameters such as hardness, cohesiveness and gumminess of noodle sheet and dried noodle were decreased by admixture of barley of sweet potato flour whereas they were increased by use of the additives. Noodle sheet required hardness over 6.2 and gumminess over 430 while dried noodle needed hardness over 6.8. 3) In cooked noodle, replacement of wheat flour and use of additives tended to lower the textural parameters. With respect to the cooking quality, barley flour could substitute 60% and sweet potato flour, 40% of wheat flour. 4) In organoleptic evaluation of cooked noodle with respect to its color, taste and texture, 20% replaced composite flour was not different significantly at 5% level from wheat flour and the quality defect was mainly due to discoloration of the product.

Korean dried noodles were prepared from 6 different types of Australian wheats and tested for their cooking property and sensory quality. The flours from different wheat types were characterized by the fractionation of starch and gluten. The flow property of fractionated starch and flour suspensions were determined. The protein content of flour influenced many aspects of dried noodle quality. The Cooking rate decreased as the protein content increased. The higher protein content resulted in the higher of shear extrusion force, and lower grade of appearence of cooked noodle. The flours containing about 10% protein, i.e. Australian standard White flours, were appeared to be most adequate to make Korean dried noodle.

The changes in the mechanical model parameters during cooking and subsequent storage, were related to the sensory quality of the noodles. The sensory hardness and chewiness were tested by Milestone method and the overall preference was evaluated by hedonic scale test. Hardness was affected primarily by increasing cooking time and in lesser degree by storage time after cooking. Chewiness was diminished by increasing cooking time and subsequent storage. The preference of wheat flour noodle was not significantly affected by cooking time, while that of wheat·sweet potato starch noodle decreased significantly by excess cooking time. Instantaneous elasticity represented the softness of noodle. The elastic components and viscosity components had significant relationship with the sensory quality of wheat noodle. On the other hand the retardation time was important for the sensory quality of wheat-sweet potato starch noodle.

This Study was conducted to investigate the processing quality of high-amylose content rice(goami) flour for noodle. The potassium and magnesium contents of rice flour were negatively associated with gross score of noodle making mixed with wheat flour. The high-amylose content of rice flour was closed associated with gel consistency negatively and with hardness of rice noodle positively, Setback viscosity of rice flour measured in a rapid visco-analyser(RVA) was significantly affected by amylose content as well as gel consistency. Also the amylose content decreased, the amylogram pasting temperature and the breakdown ratio increased. The low-amylose content rice(Chucheong) flour showed higher values in solubility. Cooking quality and texture were measured, and sensory evaluation was performed with the noodles prepared. Texture measurement showed that the noodles of composite flour containing 40% goami rice flour were superior to those wheat flour alone. Water binding capacity of the composite flour containing 40% goami rice flour was lower than that of 40% chucheong rice flour. In sensory evaluation, chewiness, overall acceptability of noodle with 40% goami ricer was evaluated as the best.
