"Sujeonggwa" is a traditional korean beverage made from dried persimmon, cinnamon, and ginger and is often garnished with pine nuts. The purpose of this study was to investigate changes in the ingredients, recipes, and processing of "sujeonggwa" in Korean cookbooks published since 1400. The name sujeonggwa is derived from jeonggwa. In the early 1600s, sujeonggwa was used in ancestral rites and as a reception beverage, although we don't know its cooking method. According to the literature of the early 1800s, sujeonggwa was made from various fruit ingredients such as pear and yuzu. But since the late 1800s, it has been mostly made from dried persimmon based on ginger and cinnamon boiled with water. Garyeon-sujeonggwa is made with lotus leaf while japkwa-sujeonggwa is made with pear and yuzu. Japkwa-sujeonggwa is similar to hwachae in terms of ingredients and cooking method.

Prickly pear juice(PPJ) extracted from prickly pear fruit (Opuntia ficus-indica)was used as raw material for the production of alcoholic beverages. Prickly pear juice (PPJ) had 0.88 oBrix of soluble solid, pH 3.96 and 0.14% of total acidity. Alcohol fermentation of 25% PPJ including 22 oBrix of sugar and 1$\times$106 of inoculum was suitable for alcohol fermentation indicating the rapid decrease of sugar content. The 22 oBrix of sugar in PPJ (25%)GJ (50%) mixture was changed to 6.5 oBrix after fermentation at 3$0^{\circ}C$ for 7 days. The alcohol content was 9.2% (w/v). PPJ (70%)/GJ (30%) mixture produced alcoholic beverage with 6.9% alcohol content resulting in the gradual decrease of soluble for 7 days. On the other hand, PPJ (50%)/GJ(50%) mixture carried out completely the alcohol fermentation at 22$^{\circ}C$ for 6 days and enhanced the red color of alcoholic beverages.

Objectives : This study was designed to investigate the effects of alcoholic fermentation beverage using pear, Bae Ro Mi In (BRMI) on airway hyperresponsiveness and immunoglobulin production in asthmatic mice Methods : We investigated the effects of BRMI on airway hyperresponsiveness by measurement of enhanced pause (Penh), and also investigated the effects on production levels of antigen specific antibody and subclasses such as IgG1, IgG2a and IgE by using ELISA methods. Prednisolone (PD, 5 mg/kg) was used as positive control. Results : Treatment with BRMI did not lowered airway hyperresponsiveness, but PD lowered significantly. Oral administration of BRMI lowered production level of ovalbumin (OVA) specific total antibody significantly. Especially, BRMI decreased IgE levels compared to non-treated control effectively. Treatment with PD lowered production levels of total antibody, IgG1 and IgE. Conclusions : These result suggest that BRMI can lower production levels of antigen specific total antibody and IgE in asthmatic mice. We also suggest that BRMI has the possibility to prevent or cure asthma through regulation of antigen specific antibody production.

An instrumental analysis of cooked chicken was carried out along with sensory evaluation to find out the effect of Sarcodon aspratus on the physicochemical and senory characteristics in comparision with kiwi fruit and pear. The moisture content of cooked chicken was increased in proportion to the increment of Sarcodon aspratus, kiwi fruit and pear. In the texture, shear force of cooked chicken was decreased with the increment of Sarcodon aspratus, kiwi fruit and pear. In terms of color, L-value was decreased by addition of Sarcodon aspratus, kiwi fruit and pear. but a-value was increased by addition of Sarcodon aspratus, kiwi fruit and pear. b-value was increased by addition of Sarcodon aspratus and pear. whereas b-value was decreased by addition of kiwi fruit. There were significant differences(p<0.05) in the sensory characteristics of the samples in which control was most preferred in taste and flavor. As the content of Sarcodon aspratus, kiwi fruit and pear was increased, the score of juiciness and tenderness was increased. In the overall acceptance, score of 0.05% Sarcodon aspratus and 10% pear was not different from that of control. Therefore, it can be concluded that 0.05-0.1% addition of Sarcodon aspratus might be desirable for the improvement of texture and juiciness of cooked chicken.

This study investigated the intake of alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages in college students. Five hundred and eighty seven students age 19-30 (432 male and 155 female) responded to the beverage consumption survey. Of the students 19.9% were freshman, 42.2% sophomore, 23% junior, and 15% seniors. Results are summarized as follows : 1) Beer and soju were the most commonly consumed alcoholic beverages by the college students. The amount of beverage normally consumed was 3 cans of beer or 1 bottle of soju. 2) There was no age related change in amount of alcoholic beverage consumed, but preference for liquor rather than beer increased with age. 3) Foods most commonly consumed prior to drinking were cooked rice and milk. 4) Following the drinking of alcoholic beverages the most commonly consumed food or beverage was cold water for both males and females. The next most commonly foods were cooked rice, instant noodles, and cola for males ; and cooked rice, milk, and fruit for females. 5) Cola and pear juice were the preferred non-alcoholic beverages for college students. Also popular among students were date juice for males and orange juice for females. Milk and non-cola carbonated beverages were not commonly consumed. This study provides information for the identification of possible alcoholic beverage related public health risks among college students.

The aim of this research is to develop recipe of kimchi beverage made of sun-dried salt. A distinction between this recipe with existing ones is the Korean traditional ingredient, sun-dried salt. The variety and amount of recruitment on the beverage was established after its characteristics were investigated by sensory tests. Preference of sweetening agent for the beverage was oligosaccharide > honey > sugar powder > sugar > aspartame > pear juice. While sensory evaluation was conducted on color, flavor and overall acceptance, the overall acceptance scores are as following; 6.24 for watery radish kimchi, 6.00 for white kimchi and 5.76 for Korean cabbage kimchi. Among other beverages, watery radish kimchi beverage was preferred. Amount of kimchi for the beverage was most suitable at 10 % of the contents. It was the same with all the other beverages. When the products were stored in normal temperature, the evaluation scores dropped for all sensory items as time passed.

Purpose: This study aimed to characterize the recipes of Hwachae in Korean cookbooks published from the 1600's to 1940's. Methods: We conducted a content analysis of thirteen old cookbooks (Eumsikdimibang, Jubangmun, Jeungbosallimgyeongje, Kyugonyoram, Imwonsibyukji, Gyuhapchongseo, Sieuijeonseo, Buinpilji, Chosunyorijebub, Chosunmusangsinsikyorijebub, Ganpyeonchosunyorijebub, Chosunyori, Chosunyoribub). We collected a total of 99 recipes of Hwachae and analyzed the ingredients used and characteristics of the recipes according to five groups of Hwachae: noodle type Hwachae, dumpling type Hwachae, fruit Hwachae, flower Hwachae, and the others. Results: The noodle type Hwachae included Changmeyon, Smyeon, Nanmyeon, and Waemyeon. Mung bean (81.0%) and Schisandra (95.2%) were mostly employed as solid ingredient and as beverage base, respectively. In the noodle type Hwachae, Wonsobyeong and Sudan belonged to the dumpling type Hwachae, in which mung bean (51.7%) was mostly used as solid ingredient and just water without any additive was used as the most popular beverage base (62.1%) unlike in other types of Hwachae. There were various types of fruit Hwachae, which used different fruits as solid ingredient such as pear, peach, cherry, strawberry, etc. Pears (44.4%) have been employed as the most popular ingredient and sweets such as honey and sugar have been used in all the fruit Hwachae. The flower Hwachae included Hwamyeon, Sunchaehwachae, Jangmihwachae, and Bomhwachae. In all the flower Hwachae, schizandra has been used as a beverage base. Conclusion: These findings provide basic information required for developing standard recipes of traditional Hwachae.

In the Joseon Dynasty, various fruit teas were popularized to promote health, with spread of Donguibogam and Hyangyag gugeupbang. As interest in fruit tea has recently increased, studies on its manufacture have become necessary. We used response surface analysis for rediscovery and commercialization of grape tea. Major materials of traditional grape tea are grape juice, pear juice, ginger juice, and honey, and the sugar contents of these materials were 12.3, 14.1, 3.3 and 75 $^{\circ}Brix$, respectively. When sensory examinations were conducted with subjects aged 40-60 years, the difference between dilution ratios of 100% and 150% was not significant, but tea diluted by 150% showed somewhat higher scores than did tea diluted by 100%. Ginger taste and sweetness were found to have the greatest effect on overall acceptance. Regression analysis on color, flavor, taste, and overall acceptance values, with reference to ginger juice and honey as independent variables, revealed that the $R^2$ values were 0.8411, 0.6717, 0.9499, and 0.9015, respectively. Contour maps were superimposed to obtain an optimal combination of ingredients for traditional grape tea, and the indicated levels of ginger juice and honey were 0.46-0.69% and 3.85-5.20%, in combination with grape juice, pear juice, and water concentrations of 28%, 9% and 60% (all w/w), respectively. Thus, it is now possible to prepare traditional grape tea.
