Saururus chinensis powder was added into cookie dough at 5 levels (0%, 1.5%, 3%, 4.5%, and 6%) by partially replacing equivalent amount of wheat flour in cookie formulation, and cookies thus made were evaluated for physicochemical properties and sensory quality by a small semi-trained panel. Thickness and density of cookies increased significantly with increase in Saururus chinensis powder content (p<0.05); however, those of dough were not affected (p<0.05). The pH of both dough and cookies decreased significantly as the level of Saururus chinensis powder increased (p<0.05). Lightness and yellowness decreased significantly as the Saururus chinensis powder content increased while redness increased significantly (p<0.05). Spread factor decreased with the powder addition (p<0.05). Sensory evaluation indicated that samples with higher amount of the powder received higher scores in terms of taste, flavor, and color but not for hardness (p<0.05). Finally, correlation analysis showed that level of Saururus chinensis powder incorporation was well-correlated with most of the physicochemical properties and sensory attributes studied.

The objectives of this study were to evaluate the quality characteristics of noodles added with dried Saururus chinensis Baill. root powder (SC powder), thereby determining which noodle recipe is the most preferable. When the amount of SC powder was increased, both L and b color values decreased, whereas a value was increased. The weight, and volume of cooked noodles increased, as did the turbidity of the soup. In the case of textural properties, addition of SC powder in noodle increased hardness, cohesiveness, springiness, chewiness, brittleness, and gumminess. Overall, according to the results of the sensory evaluation, the noodle added with SC powder up to 3% was the most preferable.

Yogurt base was prepared from milk powder $(14\sim18%)$ to which was added 0.4% Saururus chinensis (Lour.) Bail water extract (SCE) and fermented with lactic acid bacteria (a mixed strain of Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus bulgaricus) at $37^{\circ}C$ for 24 hr. The viscosity of the yogurt added SCE (SCE yogurt) made from 18% milk was higher than that of SCE yogurt containing $14\sim16%$ milk, whereas the pH and titratable acidity of the SCE yogurt were not significantly different on the range of milk contents. The optimal milk concentration for SCE yogurt manufacture was 18%. In order to optimize the preparation of dressing from SCE yogurt, the central composite design was conducted in terms of the yogurt (30, 40, 50, 60, 70 g), the mayonnaise (6, 12, 18, 24, 30 g) and the salt (0.1, 0.3, 0.5, 0.7, 0.9 g) contents. Sensory evaluation was performed and evaluated using a response surface methodology. The optimum ingredient ratio for SCE yogurt dressing was determined to be 61.2% of yogurt, 23.5% of mayonnaise, 0.58% of salt, 0.58% of honey, 1.75% of mustard, 0.23% of Tabasco pepper sauce, 0.94% of wine and 0.04% of white pepper.
