Effect of Rubus coreanum Miquel and Opuntia ficus-indica var. saboten in combination with chicken breast and wheat gluten on functional properties and physicochemical characteristics during processing of cooked noodles were investigated. These studies were carried out to investigate functional properties of Rubus coreanum Miquel and Opuntia ficus-indica var. saboten by the antioxidant ability. Antioxidant activities were evaluated by electron donating, xanthine oxidase inhibition rate and contents of total polyphenols. Overall, the antioxidant activities of hot water extracts were a little higher than those of ethanol extracts. Also, the antioxidant abilities at the concentration of 1,000 ppm in hot water extracts were higher than those of ethanol extracts by the determination of total polyphenol content and DPPH, which showed 150.25 mg% in extracts of Rubus coreanum Miquel and showed 69.36% in extracts of Opuntia ficus-indica var. saboten. The effects on processing characteristics of cooked noodles were investigated in combination with transglutaminase (TGase), plant extracts, wheat gluten and chicken breast. Cooking time was very short as 340 second in CB (cooked breast), compared to other treatments. In contrast, NCB (non cooked breast) took a longer time as 779 second. Also, CB was higher than NCB, which showed 146.3% in CB and 61.5% in NCB in water absorption ratio during cooking of noodles. Tubidity of soup was the lowest at 0.240 in NCBT (non cooked breast transglutaminase), which means the lowest loss of solid in noodle during cooking. In case of treatment of TGase, overall texture properties were higher than other samples in hardness, cohesivness, springness and gumminess. In sensory evaluations, cooked noodles treated with TGase showed a higher percentage of overall acceptability than other treatments.

Four low fat ground beef groups containing 10% fat plus 0, 5, 10 and 20% additional cooked old rice and a control ground beef containing 30% fat were prepared. Various sensory characteristics and instrumental textures were measured in order to determine the acceptability of low fat ground beef and to find out the most appropriate level of addition of cooked old rice as a fat replacer. Ground beef containg 10% fat had higher flavor and firmness scores than any other ground beef groups. Ground beef with 10% fat plus 5% cooked old rice had higher flavor, particle size, firmness and overall acceptability scores but lower juiciness and tenderness scores than ground beef with higher amount of cooked old rice (10 and 20%) and ground beef with 30% fat. Ground beef containing 10% fat plus 10 and 20% cooked old rice had higher juiciness, tenderness, particle size and overall acceptability scores but lower flavor and firmness scores than any other ground beef groups. Ground beef with 30% fat had higher flavor, juiciness, tenderness and firmness scores but lower particle size and overall acceptability scores. Conclusively, ground beef with the fat content reduced to 10% plus 5 or 10% additional cooked old rice as fat replacer still possessed the desirable sensory and instrumental texture properties.

The effects of soaking and steaming time on the quality characteristics of Korean rice cake (karedduk) were investigated. As the soaking time increased, the water-binding capacity and rice floor solid content also increased. After 8 to 10 hr soaking, 75.2 to $76.8\%$ of particles were smaller than $40\;{\mu}m$, and 23.2 to $24.8\%$ within the range of 40 to $100\;{\mu}m$. Therefore, an extended soaking time reduced the particle size. Texture is an important characteristic used to differentiate karedduk varieties, and is considered by the consumer as a determinant of the overall quality and preference. The hardness, cohesiveness, gumminess and chewiness of the karedduk structure decreased with increasing steaming time, but the springiness was highest after a 40 min steaming time. The overall texture properties were also more acceptable with 8 and 10 hrs soaking times. The L value of the karedduk decreased with increasing steaming time, but the b value increased. Also, the results of the sensory evaluation showed that an 8 hr soaking time and 40 min steaming time produced more acceptable karedduk in terms of whiteness, texture, springiness, chewiness and overall acceptability.

In this study, four Korean black raspberry wines were developed from different regions in Korea; Gochang (G), Heongsung (H), Jeongup (J), and Sungchang (S). Their flavor profiles were determined using a combination of volatile analysis and sensory evaluation. From the volatile analysis of the developed wines, 8 acids, 17 alcohols, 12 esters, 9 terpenes, 3 aldehydes and ketones, and 4 miscellaneous compounds were identified. Preferences of appearance, aroma, full-body, and overall acceptability in the developed wines were determined using 9-point hedonic scale by 43 panelists, compared with one commercial black raspberry wine (Sunw). The sweetness, sourness, astringency levels were also evaluated using 9-point just-about-right (JAR) scale. The mean overall acceptability score of Sunw (5.58) was the highest among the tested wines, followed by G (4.81), S (4.44), H (4.41), and J (4.13) (p<0.05). Sweetness levels in the developed wines were overall lower than JAR level, while sourness and astringency levels were overall higher than JAR level.

This study investigated the quality characteristics of apple jam added with ginger. The apple jam was prepared with apples, sugar, lemon juice and various amounts (0, 2, 4, 6, 8%) of ginger. Increasing the amount of ginger decreased moisture contents and sugar content of the jam, whereas the pH gradually increased. In addition, with increased amount of ginger, the lightness(L) and yellowness(b) significantly decreased, while redness(a) gradually decreased. There wasn't any significant difference in the samples with up to 4% ginger(p<0.05). In the texture profile analysis, hardness and adhesiveness increased significantly with increased amount of ginger. When more amount of ginger was added, cohesiveness increased with no significant difference based on the amount of ginger. With increased amount of ginger, springiness and chewiness gradually increased. The results of the sensory evaluation show that the apple jam added with 4% ginger got the highest overall-acceptability scores. In conclusion, it is possible to enhance the quality and acceptability of apple jam by adding 4% ginger.

Effects of native and RS-3 type resistant starches prepared from autoclaved-cooled amylomaize VII(AVII) and normal maize starches(NMS) on the rheological and baking properties of wheat flour dough and quality of breads were investigated. In farinogram, water absorption and dough development time were increased, but stability was reduced by the addition of RS. The addition of native starches or resistant starch made from AVII to wheat flour improved the total volume and specific loaf volume of bread compared with the control(no addition), but the addition of NMS-RS reduced those. During the storage of bread at room temperature, the moisture content of control was decreased but those of native starch- or RS-added breads remained constantly. AVII-RS- or NMS-RS-added bread was evaluated to have good overall acceptability compared with control by elementary school students. The addition of enzyme-resistant starch to bread regardless of botanical sources of starch not only improved the overall acceptability and nutritional benefits but also improved the sensory acceptability.

The present study investigated the influence of different volumes of red hot pepper juice on the quality characteristics of fresh Pasta noodle. Supplementation with 0% (control), 2.5%, 5%, 7.5%, or 10% red hot pepper juice produced similar gelatinization characteristics of peak viscosity, temperature at peak viscosity, hot paste viscosity and numerical value of breakdown. However, increasing concentrations of red hot pepper juice produced progressively and significantly low cold paste viscosity and setback. The chromaticity of wet and cooked noodles was significantly lower in L value and significantly higher in +a and +b values with increasing volumes of red hot pepper juice. The texture of fresh noodles displayed no significant differences in hardness, adhesiveness and chewiness. The springiness and cohesiveness were lower and higher with the increase of added red hot pepper juice, respectively, but the differences just attained significance. For cooked noodles, adhesiveness, springiness, cohesiveness and chewiness tended to be higher with increasing volumes of red hot pepper juice, but again the differences just attained significance. Cooking characteristics of weight, volume, moisture absorptive power and turbidity decreased with increasing volumes of red hot pepper juice. Sensory characteristics of acceptability including appearance, color, flavor, taste, texture and overall-acceptability improved with increasing red hot pepper juice volume, in particular with 5% and 7.5%. Amylograph characteristics for initial paste temperature positively correlated with the texture characteristics for chewiness (p<0.05). Negatively correlated amylograph parameters included texture for springiness with for peak viscosity (p<0.01), texture for adhesiveness with hot paste viscosity (p<0.01) and breakdown with texture for adhesiveness, cohesiveness and chewiness (p<0.05).

Low-fat sausages with or without 10% hydrated rice flour were made from duck, chicken and pork and their physical and sensory properties were compared. Results showed that moisture content did not differ significantly among the sausage batters. However, crude protein, crude fat and total ash content were significantly lower in the group with added rice flour compared with the no flour group. Crude protein and crude fat were the highest in pork sausages without rice flour (p<0.05). Adding 10% rice flour reduced total expressible fluid in all meat type sausages. Cooking loss was also decreased when 10% rice flour was used in making sausages from chicken and pork. However, no changes in cooking loss were found in duck meat by adding rice flour. Again, the highest cooking loss was in pork sausages without rice flour and lowest in chicken sausages with 10% rice flour. The pH of the meat from different animal species differs significantly, although no significant difference was found within meat types with or without rice flour. Lightness ($L^*$) increased, while redness ($a^*$) decreased with adding rice flour in all meat type sausages. Results showed that hardness was significantly reduced when 10% rice flour was added to pork, chicken and duck meat (p<0.05). This may be due to increased water retention of rice flour after cooking. Sensory evaluation indicated that the overall acceptability of pork and chicken sausages with or without rice flour was the same, but duck sausages without rice flour had the highest off-flavor score among the sausages. Addition of rice flour increased the overall acceptability of duck sausage to that of pork and chicken sausages.

This research examined the quality characteristics of orange sauce samples prepared with different sugar contents in order to create a standardized recipe.In the foodservice industry, attempts have been made to make superior sauces, often resulting in error. In this study, different sugar contents were examined for orange sauce to determine why varied results occur during its preparation as well as the best methodology for preparing orange sauce. Quality characteristics such as color differences, spreadability, and pH were analyzed, as well as sensory evaluations of taste, texture, color and overall acceptability. The pH values of the orange sauce samples ranged from 3.6 to 3.63 and after the initial simmering of ingredients, the weight reduction rates of the sauces were 88, 75, 64, 63, and 64% for sugar contents of 200, 300, 400, 500, and 600 g respectively. Hunter's color L, a, and b values of the samples changed according to the sugar contents after simmering (1st sauce). The L and b values showed similar patterns, where increasing sugar content resulted in higher values; however, in the 2nd sauce, the pattern was reversed. This indicates that the color of the sauce was affected by sugar caramelization during the reduction process; however, the final color was modified by the additions of mayonnaise and butter as well as by aeration. In the sensory evaluation the sample containing 30% sugar (500 g) had significantly higher acceptability scores (p<0.05) for color, mouth feel, appearance, taste, and overall acceptability. Finally, the optimal ingredient ratios of the standardized orange sauce recipe were determine as: 48% total liquid consisting of orange juice and mandarin and orange fruit; 30% sugar; 10% mayonnaise and 11% butter.

In this study, muffins were produced using dropwort powder and to the quality characteristics such as volume, height and moisture content The results showed that the height of the muffin was 5 cm and there were no significant differences across samples (p<0.05). The volume of the muffin increased as the amount of dropwort powder increased. With respect to the moisture content, a comparison group showed a moisture content of 26%, and the 3%-added and the 6%-added groups did not show any significant difference. The 9%-added group, however, did show a significant difference (p<0.05). The results of texture measurements showed that hardness increased as the amount of added dropwort powder increased. There were also significant differences in adhesiveness and springing across samples (p<0.05). With respect to cohesiveness, gumminess and chewiness, these characteristics tended to increase as the amount of added dropwort powder increased, and there were significant differences across samples (p<0.05). Sensory test results of added showed that the 3%-added group scored the highest for color, flavor and taste. For texture, the 6%-added group showed a value of 6.2, which was the highest texture. In terms of the overall acceptability, the 3% dropwort powder group showed a score of 7.2, which was the highest acceptability. These results suggest that the 3%-added group was the most desirable and appropriate.
