Pholiota adiposa is an edible as well as medicinal mushroom cultured in China and Japan with anti-tumor, anti-microbial, anti-hypertensive, and anti-hyperlipidemic activities. This study was carried out to investigate the quality characteristics of cookies added with Pholiota adiposa powder. Chemical composition of Pholiota adiposa powder was as follows: 3.8% moisture, 6.9% ash, 1% crude lipids, 3% protein, 53.3% carbohydrates, and 31.9% crude dietary fiber. To analyze quality characteristics during the manufacture of cookies, pH, texture, color, antioxidant activity, total polyphenol content, and sensory evaluation were determined. As the content of Pholiota adiposa powder increased, the pH of cookies decreased from 6.7 to 6.02. Hardness of cookies decreased with increasing Pholiota adiposa powder content, and cookies added with 5% powder were softer than the control. Regarding surface color, L-value decreased with increasing powder content compared to that of the control, whereas in surface color among various powder levels was not significantly different. As the content of Pholiota adiposa powder increased, both antioxidant activity and total polyphenol content increased. In the sensory evaluation, cookies added with 3% Pholiota adiposa powder showed remarkably higher values compared to control and other amples in all aspects.

Antioxidative capacities of Stachys sieboldii MIQ and 6-year-old ginseng powder were assessed after extraction with 80% ethanol, and their addition effects on quality characteristics of cookies were determined. Stachys sieboldii MIQ showed 3.12-fold higher total phenol content (TPC) and higher antioxidative capacities than ginseng based on higher values of 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl radical scavenging capacity, ferric reducing antioxidant capacity, and Trolox equivalent antioxidant capacity (P<0.05). The 80% ethanol extract was then fractionated with $H_2O$ (Fr. I), 30% (II), 50% (III), 70% (IV), and 100% ethanol (V). Fractions of Stachys sieboldii MIQ extract showed 2.2-fold (Fr. I)~6.1-fold (III) higher TPC and higher antioxidative capacities than ginseng extract fractions. TPC was in the order of fractions III> II> I> IV> V for Stachys sieboldii MIQ extract while in the order of fractions I~III> IV~V for ginseng extract, assuming that Stachys sieboldii MIQ contained more phenolic compounds with higher polarity than ginseng. Addition of 5% and 10% Stachys sieboldii MIQ and ginseng powder increased spread ratio in cookies compared to 100% wheat flour, and 10% addition of Stachys sieboldii MIQ resulted in the darkest and most reddish cookies. In the sensory evaluation, cookies with 5% and 10% Stachys sieboldii MIQ received higher scores for taste preference and higher overall acceptability than ginseng or control cookies. Therefore, powder of Stachys sieboldii MIQ could impart more favorable sensory characteristics as well as higher antioxidative capacity than ginseng in bakery products.

This study was conducted to investigate the effects of bitter melon (Momordica charantia L.) powder on the quality characteristics. The bulk density of cookie dough of the test groups containing bitter melon powder did not show any significant difference compared to the control group. The pH of cookie dough and cookies decreased with the addition of bitter melon powder. The moisture content of the groups containing bitter melon powder was higher than that of the control group. The spread ratio of the groups containing bitter melon powder was higher but the loss rate of cookies was lower than those of the control group. In color, the L value was decreased significantly by addition of bitter melon powder, but the a and b values did not show any significant differences compared to the control group. The hardness of the test groups containing bitter melon powder was lower than that of the control group. For DPPH radical scavenging activity, the control group measured 20.69%, whereas the test groups containing bitter melon powder ranged from 38.37~69.48%. Sensory evaluation scores in terms of appearance, flavor, taste, texture and overall preference of the group containing 3% of bitter melon powder did not show any significant differences compared to the control group.

We evaluated the quality characteristics and antioxidative activities of cookies containing different types of egg yolk (LEY, Liquid Egg Yolk; FEY, Fresh Egg Yolk) and percentages of blueberry powder (5, 10, and 15%). As the amount of blueberry powder increased, the levels of antioxidants based on ABTS and DPPH radical scavenging activities increased in general. Within the 15% group, contents of polyphenols and flavonoids were higher in the FEY group, whereas content of anthocyanins was higher in the LEY group. Measurement of ABTS radical scavenging activity showed that the FEY group had a higher value within the 10% group, whereas the LEY group scored higher within the 15% group. Comparison of sensory properties showed no significant difference between the two egg yolk types. If commercialized, manufacturing cookies with FEY or LEY will not make a significant difference. Regardless, 15% blueberry powder would be the most appropriate, as it scored the highest in terms of antioxidant activity and sensory characteristics.

Physicochemical and sensory characteristics of cookies with various levels of resistant starch were investigated in this study. Dough pH of 30% substituted sample group had significantly the highest value than that of all(p<0.05). Water contents of Dough were decreased with increased levels of the resistant starch in cookie preparation. The spreadability was increased as the addition levels of the resistant starch were increased. The Hunter L and a values of 30% substituted sample group had the highest values of all(p<0.05). Results of sensory characteristics of 30% substituted sample group showed significantly the lower values in hardness and crack than those in the other groups at p<0.05. Acceptance tests of cookies with 10 and 20% substituted sample groups showed higher values in savory flavor and overall acceptability than those of others.

We investigated the quality characteristics of cookies prepared after addition of various concentrations of used coffee grounds (0%, 1%, 3%, and 5%, all w/w) as a substitute for flour. As coffee grounds concentration rose, decrease in the pH of cookie dough was evident. In terms the water-holding capacity of dough, cookies prepared 3% (w/w) coffee grounds yielded the highest value. With an increase in coffee grounds concentration, the color a value rose, but the L and b values fell. The gelatinization temperature became higher, but both peak viscosity and 15 min-height values declined. The spread and loss ratios decreased but the leavening rate rose significantly with elevation of coffee grounds concentration. The hardness of cookies rose but slightly, as coffee grounds concentration rose. Upon sensory evaluation of all of appearance, flavor, and overall preference, cookies prepared with addition of used coffee grounds were superior to those without grounds, whereas those prepared using 1%-3%(w/w) coffee grounds showed the highest overall acceptability. Thus cookies made using coffee grounds can be economically competitive. In addition, the ingredients of coffee powder and used coffee grounds were shown to be very similar, except that coffee grounds contain 15-fold less caffeine than dose coffee powder. As health concerns are popular today, the use of coffee grounds to manufacture processed food may be acceptable.

This study investigated the quality characteristics and antioxidant activities of gluten-free cookies containing teff flour. By substituting 0% (control), 25% (TF25), 50% (TF50), 75% (TF75), and 100% (TF100) of wheat flour with teff flour, five samples were produced. Baking loss rate was the highest in TF25 at 13.76% and the lowest in TF75 at 4.03%. Spread factor was significantly higher in cookies made with teff flour (83.00~85.00) than in the control (81.33) (p<0.05). There was no significant difference in density among the samples at 1.17~1.25 g/mL (p<0.05); however, pH significantly decreased at 6.42~6.04 (p<0.05). While the L-value and b-value significantly decreased with the amount of teff flour, the a-value significantly increased (p<0.05). The ${\Delta}E$ value was the highest in the control at 31.31 and the lowest in TF100 at 58.69. Hardness was the highest in the control at 42.04 N than in cookies containing teff flour. The content of polyphenols was the highest in TF100 at $3.37{\mu}g\;GAE/mg$ and the lowest in the control at $1.32{\mu}g\;GAE/mg$. The content of flavonoids was the highest in TF100 at $3.66{\mu}g\;QE/mg$ and the lowest in controls at $0.45{\mu}g\;QE/mg$. The value of DPPH $IC_{50}$ was the highest in the control at $3,723.00{\mu}g/mL$ and the lowest in TF 100 at $405.27{\mu}g/mL$. The value of ABTS $IC_{50}$ was the highest in the control at $1,822.32{\mu}g/mL$ and the lowest in TF100 at $529.30{\mu}g/mL$. In sensory evaluation, while control, TF75, and TF100 had a higher score in appearance at 5.52~5.60, all samples had no significant differences in flavor, sweetness, savory taste, chewiness, and overall acceptability (p<0.05). These results showed that the gluten-free cookies containing teff flour can improve the quality characteristics and antioxidant activities of a cookie. We concluded that gluten-free cookies containing 100% teff flour are desirable.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the quality characteristics of cookies prepared with Loquat (Eriobotrya japonica Lindl.) leaf powder (0, 1, 2, 3, and 4%) for flour. The pH of cookie dough decreased significantly in response to the addition of all levels of Loquat leaf powder (LLP). The spread factor of the cookies also increased significantly with more LLP content added to the cookies recipe. In addition, Hunter's color L and a values significantly decreased with increasing LLP content, whereas the b value was increased. According to hardness measurements, the substitution of 1~4% for LLP resulted in increased hardness when samples were compared to the control. Moreover, the addition of LLP resulted in increased DPPH free radical scavenging activity when compared to the control. The results of sensory evaluation showed that the cookies containing 2% had the highest scores.
