In this study, a natural fermentation starter formulation was developed for manufacturing Korean bread products by substituting baker's yeast with naturally fermented blueberry starters. As the incubation time of the blueberry extracts increased, the pH and total titratable acidity increased. The sweetness (brix%) of blueberry extracts containing various amounts of sugar were higher than the other sample. The result of alcoholicity for naturally fermented blueberry extracts, the fermented blueberry extract containing 20% sugar was highest. Lactic acid bacteria counts increased until the 4th day; however, it decreased from the 5th day, and viable yeast counts increased consistently until the 5th day. The volume for naturally fermented blueberry extracts increased as the incubation time increased. As the fermentation time of blueberry starters increased, the pH of bread dough decreased. The RVA analysis conveyed that wheat flour retrogradation was retarded by increasing the blueberry starter content. The weight of pan breads containing blueberry starters were higher than that of the control, while the volume, specific volume and baking loss rate were lower than those of the control. The moisture content of pan breads containing blueberry starter decreased as storage time increased. In analyzing the visible mold colony during 7 days of storage at $28^{\circ}C$, mold growth in pan breads containing the blueberry starter was retarded. The hardness of breads containing blueberry starters were significantly increased as storage time increased. The breads containing 50% naturally fermented blueberry starter have acceptable sensory properties. In conclusion, these results indicated that 50% of natural fermentation blueberry starter could be very useful as a substitute for yeast when making naturally fermented bread.

Normal (cv. Keumkang, KK) and waxy-type (cv. Shinmichal, SMC) whole wheat flour was substituted at 20 and 40% for white wheat flour (WF) during bread dough formulation. The flour blends were subjected to dough and baking property measurement in terms of particle size distribution, dough mixing, bread loaf volume and crumb firmness. The particle size of white wheat flour was the finest, with increasing coarseness as the level of whole wheat flour increased. Substitution of whole wheat flour decreased pasting viscosity, showing all RVA parameters were the lowest in SMC40 composite flour. Water absorption was slightly higher with 40% whole wheat flour regardless of whether the wheat was normal or waxy. An increased mixing time was observed when higher levels of KK flour were substituted, but the opposite reaction occurred when SMC flour was substituted at the same levels. Bread loaf volume was lower in breads containing a whole wheat flour substitution compared to bread containing only white wheat flour. No significant difference in bread loaf volume was observed between normal and waxy whole flour, but the bread crumb firmness was significantly lower in breads containing waxy flour. The results of these studies indicate that up to 40% whole wheat flour substitution could be considered a practical option with respect to functional qualities. Also, replacing waxy whole flour has a positive effect on bread formulation over normal whole wheat flour in terms of improving softness and glutinous texture.

The quality characteristics of breads made by adding levels of 30%, 60%, and 100% aloe gel were investigated. The 60% aloe gel sample had a larger dough volume than the control dough. Also, the loaf volume and specific volume of the bread made with 60% aloe gel were larger than those of the control bread. The pasting temperature increased gradually with the increasing amounts of substituted aloe gel as compared to wheat flour with water added$(66.5{\pm}12^{\circ}C)$; the wheat flour with 100% aloe gel had a pasting temperature of $90.7{\pm}1.1^{\circ}C$. Peak viscosity decreased gradually with increasing amounts of aloe gel when compared to the wheat flour with water added. Setback also was decreased gradually with the increasing amounts of aloe gel as compared to the wheat flour with added water. From the setback decrease it is suggested that the aloe controlled retrogradation of the bread during short-term storage. The crumb color of the bread made with the aloe gel was not significantly different to that of the control bread, and the color of the crumb was yellow-white. Bread hardness decreased gradually with increasing amounts of the substituted aloe gel. However, bread gumminess and chewiness increased gradually with increasing amounts of aloe gel. The springiness of the bread made with 100% aloe gel was lower than that of the control bread. With regard to flavor and taste, the bread made with 100% aloe gel produced a green-like odor and had a bitter taste. The mouth feel of the breads made with aloe gel was considered soft and moist. The overall acceptabilities of the breads made with 30% and 60% aloe gel were not significantly different from the control bread, but the bread made with 100% aloe gel had a green smell and bitter taste. Yet accordingly, the results indicate that functional and health products with improved quality could be developed by adding aloe gel to breads and cakes.

The purpose of this study is to examine the effect of protein content on the physicochemical properties, gelatinized characteristics and textural properties of cowpea precipitate gels stored for 24 hrs and 48 hrs at room temperature. The contents of protein, total fat, and ash ranged from 0.35%∼1.38%, 0.54%∼0.64%, and 0.21%∼0.25%, respectively. The X-ray diffraction patterns were all Ca-type, showing no difference according to the protein content. Protein content did not make any difference in the blue values of cowpea precipitate. The blue value of cowpea precipitate powder as protein content was decreased. The water-binding capacity of cowpea precipitate powder increased as the protein content increased. Swelling power and solubility of cowpea precipitate powder increased as protein content decreased. The transmittance of cowpea precipitate powder was not different according to the protein content. The initial pasting temperature of cowpea precipitate powder by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and rapid visco analyser (RVA) showed no differences according to the protein content. In sensory evaluation, the color and clarity of cowpea precipitate gels stored for 24 hrs and 48 hrs at room temperature as the protein content increased, and the hardness, cohesiveness, springiness, acceptability were greater when the gels were stored for 48 hrs. Instrumental analyses using a rheometer showed that the hardness, gumminess, and chewiness of cowpea precipitate gels stored for 24 hrs, which was increased as the high protein content increased. For the gels stored for 48 hrs, all other factors are significantly different except cohesiveness as the protein content increased.

The baking properties of rice bread with different percentages of butter and oil in wet and dry rice flour were investigated. The moisture, damaged starch, mean diameter, pasting properties by amylogram and RVA (Rapid Visco Analyzer), as well as thermal properties by DSC (Differential Scanning Calorimetry) of wet and dry rice flour were analyzed. The specific gravity and color (L, a, b) of the dough, as well as the appearance, color (L, a, b) and texture of the rice bread with different percentages of butter and oil in wet and dry rice flour were also analyzed. As a result, the wet rice flour were composed of a noted higher content in moisture, compared to the dry rice flour (p<0.001). The wet rice flour had lower values of damaged starch, higher values of mean diameter and a higher peak viscosity than was noted in the dry rice flour (p<0.001). The wet rice flour showed a higher degree of hydration and gelatinization than was seen in the dry rice flour (p<0.001). The prevailing principle to utilize the replacement of wet rice flour with oil had a significant effect on the volume, specific volume and hardness of the rice bread (p<0.001). The hardness of the rice bread also showed a decreasing trend as the amount of the added oil was increased into the mixture. These results suggest that the replacement of wet rice flour with 5.8% oil is effective for the production of rice bread.

Acetylated rice starches were prepared by reaction of rice starch with acetic anhydride, and their physicochemical properties as a function of degree of substitution (DS) were evaluated. The percentage of acetyl group and DS were $0{\sim}2.71%\;and\;0{\sim}0.104$, respectively. DS increased with increase in acetic anhydride content. DS increased swelling power and solubility of rice starch. Light transmittance (%) values of acetylated rice starches were much higher than that of native rice starch and increased with increase in DS. Rapid Visco Analyzer initial pasting temperature of acetylated rice starches decreased with increase in DS, while peak viscosity and breakdown values increased. Starch gets showed a significant decrease in syneresis (%) with the increase in DS.

This study was conducted to investigate the quality characteristics of frozen stored mungbean starch gels added with sucrose fatty acid ester (SE). The study showed a delay of gelatinization of mungbean starch by SE addition through the measurements conducted by using Rapid Visco Analyzer (RVA) and Differential Scanning Calorimeter (DSC). In the color of SE added frozen stored gels, lightness (L) and yellowness (b) values were increased compared to those of values measured from freshly prepared gel, whereas redness (a) value was decreased. The addition of 1% SE on mungbean starch gel prevented the color change during frozen storage. Rupture stress and rupture energy of frozen stored gel was higher than those of freshly prepared gel, whereas rupture strain of frozen stored gel was lower than that of freshly prepared gel. The addition of 1% SE on mungbean starch gel prevented the change of rupture characteristics during frozen storage. Texture profile analysis(TPA) characteristics revealed a significant change of the gel texture during frozen storage by showing an increase of hardness of the frozen stored gels compared to the freshly prepared gels with newly discovered fracturability, which resulted to show a large difference of gel texture by showing the disappearance of adhesiveness and large reduction of cohesivenes. The addition of 1% SE on mungbean starch gel prevented the change of TPA characteristics during frozen storage. Scanning electron micrographs showed that network structure of frozen stored gel was more rough than that of freshly prepared gel, and the addition of 1% SE on mungbean starch gel could suppress the breakdown of network structure. Thus the addition of 1.0% SE on mungbean starch gel was appropriate method for remaining gel characteristics during frozen storage.

To develop the high quality gluten-free rice products with health functionality and desirable texture with moistness, the physicochemical properties of extruded rice flours prepared from the mixture of germinated brown and white rices were investigated. The domestic organic Samgwangbyeo was used to make white and germinated brown rices. White rice (WR) was dried after soaked for 6 h at $15{\pm}3^{\circ}C$ and mixed with germinated brown rice (GBR) with different mixing ratios (100:0, 75:25, 50:50, 25:75, 0:100). The operating conditions of twin screw extruder were 250 rpm of screw speed, $120^{\circ}C$ of barrel temperature, and 25% moisture content of rice flour. The ash, crude protein and crude lipid contents were significantly different (p<0.05) and those of extruded GBR were the highest values, but those of extruded WR were the lowest. The color difference of extruded WR based on white plate showed the lowest among them. The water binding capacity (334.16%), swelling power (8.83 g/g), solubility (33.13%), and total starch (79.50%) were the lowest in extruded GBR. The viscosities of all extruded rice flours by RVA were maintained during heating. The peak and total setback viscosities of extruded rice flours ranged 127-352 and 58.0-85.5 cP, respectively. The novel food biomaterial from germinated brown rice as well as white rice was developed by twin screw extruder. The extruded rice flours control the moistness to improve the texture and also have functional materials, dietary fiber, GABA, and ferulic acid, etc to increase quality of gluten free rice products.

To compare the physicochemical and gel properties of mung bean starches prepared by different purification methods, starches from Korean Eohul variety and Chinese mung bean (MB) with or without hull using alkaline solution or water as solvent were purified. The optimum conditions for making muk were investigated. Apparent amylose and total dietary fiber contents, water binding capacity, solubility and pasting properties by RVA were analyzed. The characteristics of starch gels (10% dry basis) were measured for 0 and 4 day stored at $4^{\circ}C$. The protein and ash contents were significantly different (p<0.05) and lowered in starch from dehulled MB using alkaline solution. The starches from dehulled MB using alkaline solution showed the lowest color differences. Apparent amylose contents of Eohul and Chinese starches showed 37.06-39.03% and 31.57-32.74%, respectively. Chinese starch was higher in water binding capacity but lower in solubility at $85^{\circ}C$ than others. Peak, trough, cold, and breakdown viscosities of Eohul starch were higher than those of Chinese one. Mung bean starch gel made immediately exhibited clear and glossy appearance but became whiter like milk. The crystallinities of starch and starch gel showed A and B types, respectively. The hardness, gumminess, and resilience of starch gel made immediately and hardness, cohesiveness, gumminess, and resilience of 4 day stored gels were different significantly (p<0.05). Especially, Eohul starch gels purified from hulled MB showed higher resilience (bending property) and hardness. Therefore, it was suggested that high quality muk would be made using MB starch purified from hulled Korean mung bean using water as solvent.decreased in contain more than 20% of SGP added groups. The optimal concentration of SGP was found in the range of less than 10%.

The effects of tapioca starch (TS) and tapioca modified starch (TMS) as additives on the quality characteristics of rice cookies were investigated in this study. The amounts of TS and TMS replaced were 5, 10 and 15%(w/w) based on 100 g of rice flour. At the result of rapid viscosity analyser (RVA) properties of rice flour added with starches, peak, trough, and final viscosity of rice flour added with TMS decreased significantly(p<0.05). Hardness of dough and cookies as measured by Texture analyzer (TA) significantly decreased upon addition of TMS, and hardness of cookies significantly decreased upon addition of TS, hardness of cookies TMS lower than TS. L value of dough and cookies increased upon addition of TMS, whereas a value decreased upon addition of TMS. Spreadability of cookies increased upon addition of TMS, 10% TMS is the highest. Bulk density of dough decreased upon addition of TMS, bulk density of cookies decreased upon addition of TS and TMS, and bulk density of TMS cookie lower than TS cookie. In sensory evaluation, 10% TS added rice cookies showed the highest score in overall acceptability, hardness, brittleness, color, softness, taste and flavor, and 15% TS added rice cookies showed the highest score in appearance. And 15% TMS added rice cookies showed the highest score in overall acceptability, taste, brittleness, flavor, and 10% TMS added rice cookies showed the highest score in hardness, flavor, taste and color. It is indicated that the quality characteristics and sensory characteristics of the rice cookie can be improved by adding TS and TMS.
