The textural and rheological properties of cheese are major attributes for the characterization of cheese types, ripening, and consumer preferences. The use of small amplitude oscillatory rheological testing has made it possible for cheese researchers to assess the major properties of cheese, such as melting behavior and storage modulus, without irreversible deformation. In addition, large deformation testing such as textural profile analysis can assess properties such as hardness of cheese. While the sensory properties of cheese are valued by consumers, objective and reliable measurements are paramount for researchers. Ongoing development and refinement of scientific measurement methods of cheese are vital.

Wet noodles with different percentages of amaranth powder were prepared and their cooking characteristics were evaluated. The cooking quality, mechanical textural properties, and a sensory evaluation was conducted with the prepared noodles. Cooked noodle properties, weight, and volume decreased as amaranth content of the wheat flour increased, whereas turbidity and water absorption of the soup increased, except for cooked noodles with 30% amaranth. The L-value of the raw and cooked noodles decreased significantly with increasing amaranth powder content. The a- and b-values increased with increasing amounts of added amaranth powder. The L-value of the raw and cooked noodles with amaranth was significantly lower than that of the control, and the a-value was lower than that of the control, whereas the b-value was higher than that of the control for both raw and cooked noodles. A texture profile analysis of the raw noodles showed significantly higher levels of hardness, cohesiveness, gumminess, chewiness, and springiness in the amaranth noodles compared to those in the control; the values for adhesiveness were not significantly different. The hardness, gumminess, springiness, and chewiness of the cooked noodles decreased in proportion to the quantity of added amaranth. The springiness, adhesiveness, and cohesiveness of cooked noodles with amaranth decreased slightly. Overall, the results of a sensory evaluation revealed that the cooked noodles with amaranth had higher values than those of the control, except for overall acceptability. Amaranth added at a concentration of up to 30% increased brown color and the peculiar amaranth odor. In a sensory evaluation, cooked noodles with 20% amaranth powder were preferred more than the other noodles for overall acceptability.

The aims of this study were to investigate the quality characteristics of yellow layer cake added with Sparassis crispa powder that were abundant in dietary fiber, and also to determine the most suitable amount of added S. crispa powder. Dried powder of S. crispa containing 61.8 g/100 g insoluble dietary fiber was added to the cake batter in Baker's percentage of 1%, 2%, 4%, and 8%. Cake batter containing 1% and 2% S. crispa powder showed similar pH, specific gravity, and viscosity values to the batter without S. crispa powder (control). As the amount of added S. crispa power increased, the volume, specific volume, baking loss, and brightness (for both crust and crumb) of the cake containing the powder tended to decrease. A greater amount of added S. crispa powder resulted in a decrease in hardness, gumminess, and chewiness of the cake containing the powder and also reduced the changes in hardness of the cake during 8 days of storage. The sensory analysis showed that cake containing 2% S. crispa had several desirable kinds of sensory attributes, such as color, flavor, taste, and texture compared to the control; whereas an addition of more than 2% S. crispa deteriorated the sensory quality of the cake. These results suggest that the most suitable amount of added S. crispa powder for preparing yellow layer cake was 2% in Baker's percentage.

Transglutaminase (TGase), which forms linkages among proteins, has been used to improve food quality. In the current study, quality characteristics such as color values, texture profile parameters, and sensory profiles of the frozen surichwi (Synurus deltoids) rice cake made using transglutaminase (TGase) treated-rice flour were investigated, with a view to producing high-value rice products. The results indicate that Hunter color values (L and b) and TPA parameter values (hardness, gumminess and chewiness) of frozen surichwi rice cake made with TGase-treated rice flour were significantly changed, and that these properties may be applied to improve the sensory qualities of final products. Also, the sensory acceptability scores related to color, appearance, taste and texture, as well as overall acceptability of the TGase-treated frozen surichwi rice cake, were found to be significantly higher compared to controls. In conclusion, the results clearly indicate that TGase-treated rice flour carries the potential to improve the overall quality of frozen rice cake, and that surichwi is an effective ingredient for sensory profiles.

The primary objective of this study is to investigate the quality properties of noodles added with germinated non-waxy (Saesalbori) and waxy (Saechalbori) barley flours at concentrations of 10%, 20% and 30% to wheat flour. The quality characteristics of the samples were assessed for color, cooking characteristics (water absorption, volume increase of noodles and turbidity of cooking water), texture profile analysis (TPA) and sensory evaluation. Regarding the cooking properties of the noodles, adding waxy barley flour did not affect cooking yield and volume increase significantly(p<0.05), but noodles added with germinated Saesalbori at level of 10% had the lowest values of cooking yield and volume increase. Adding both types of flour increased the turbidity of the noodle soups. There was a common downward trend in $L^*$ and $b^*$ values and upward trend in $a^*$ value when increasing the level of barley used progressively. Adding germinated Saechalbori decreased the hardness, springiness and gumminess of noodles but did not cause any change in cohesiveness significantly while adding germinated Saesalbori decreased all the TPA parameters of the samples. Furthermore, the sensory analysis results showed that cooked noodles with 10% added germinated barley had no significantly different overall acceptance from the control sample. 20% substitution still resulted in acceptable sensory qualities. However treatment with both the substituted flours up to 30% was shown to cause unpleasant sensory qualities of noodles.

In this study, the effects of gamma-irradiation (1, 2 and 4 kGy) on texture profiles, fatty acid composition, free amino acids and sensory evaluation of dry-fermented sausage were evaluated. The hardness and adhesiveness of irradiated samples were significantly lower (p<0.01) than that of the control, while the gumminess of samples irradiated with 2 and 4 kGy was higher than the other tested samples (p<0.01). The sample irradiated at 4 kGy had a higher saturated fatty acid (SFA) content (C14:0, C16:0, C18:0) and significantly lower (p<0.05) unsaturated fatty acid content (UFA) (C16:1, C18:1, C18:3), trans, n-3 and n-6 fatty acid than the non-irradiated sample. Gamma-irradiation resulted in an increase (p<0.05) in phosposerine, aspartic acid and glutamic acid and a decrease (p<0.05) in glutamic acid in free amino acids. For the samples irradiated at 4 kGy, the sulfur odor and fat pungent flavor were significantly higher (p<0.05) and the moldy odor and moldy flavor were significantly lower than the control sample. In conclusion, gamma-irradiation had a significant effect on the texture profiles, fatty acid composition and sensory evaluation of dry-fermented sausage.

The purposes of this study were to develop Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point-based standardized recipe applicable to cook/chilled soy sauceglazed mackerel and to evaluate the qualities related to the product flow of this item. After conducting experimental cooking, preliminary test, and analysis of recipes, critical control points were identified, control methods were determined, and HACCP-based recipe was standardized. At each critical control point, time-temperature profile was recorded and microbiological analysis (total aerobic plate counts, psychrotrophic plate count, coliform, and fecal coliform count), chemical analysis (pH, acid value and volatile based nitrogen (VBN)) and sensory evaluation of the item were done. Time-temperature data showed that the time the menu item had passed through temperature danger zone (5∼60$^{\circ}C$) during all phases was 60 min. At rapid cooling, but after cooling at room temperature, the temperature of this menu item did not drop below the ambient temperature. The results of microbiological test were negative throughout all phases following cooking and the results of chemical analysis did not change significantly in terms of storage periods except for VBN which increased on 7th day significantly(p<0.05). After steam/convection oven reheating and microwave oven reheating, the sensory score of the only appearance decreased significantly related to the storage time of overall quality profiles. But significant differences were not detected according to two reheating methods. In conclusion, this HACCP-based recipe was considered as an effective tool for assuring microbial as well as sensory quality of this cook/chilled item.
