The sensory quality describing terms of Takju were surveyed by questionair and classified according to the sensory characteristics. The effects of thermal treatment for the pasteurization of Takju on the sensory quality were tested and statistically evaluated. The important sensory quality attributes of Takju were white, gray, and yellow for color, acidic and yeasty for smell, sour, astringent, bitter and sweet for taste and gritty, viscous and carbonated for mouthfeel. The organoleptic properties of grayness, yeasty and cooked smell, astringent and bitter taste and thickness increased, while sourness, sweetness, yellowness, grittiness and carbonated feel decreased by the pasteurization treatments, heating $82^{\circ}C$, $93^{\circ}C$ or $135^{\circ}C$ for 9 seconds. These changes coincided with the overall reductions in the preference scores of pasteurized Takju. The degree of sensory quality deterioration appeared to be affected to some extent by the heating temperature.

The objective of this study was to develop and standardize a preparation method for low-salt yacon jangachi using rice wine lees. The proximate composition of yacon was 81.08% (moisture), 0.77% (crude protein), 0.14% (crude lipid) and 0.70% (crude ash). In order to determine the preferred sodium concentrations of soaking solution and rice wine lees, we investigated the quality characteristics of yacon jangachi during storage for 50 days at $18^{\circ}C$. The salinity of yacon jangachi using rice wine lees with 2% and 4% salt increased with storage time, but the salinity did not rise above 3% during storage for 50 days. The salinity of rice wine lees with 4% salt decreased during storage time. a and b color values along with sheared force of yacon jangachi increased as storage time increased, but L color value was reversed. In the sensory evaluation, the color preference for yacon jangachi increased during storage time, and the taste preference was highest at day 30. The flavor preference decreased during storage time, but the texture preference was reversed. In the sensory evaluation of overall preference, yacon jangachi using rice wine lees with 0% salt decreased at day 30, whereas yacon jangachi using rice wine lees with 2% and 4% salt increased during storage time. In conclusion, the salinity of yacon jangachi stored for 50 days with 4% salt did not rise above 3%, and softening was not observed.

To assess the quality of commercial sikhes, we compared physicochemical and sensory characteristics of commercial sikhe with home-made one. Six different brands and home-made sikhes were analysed for physicochemical (sugar content, acidity, color, viscosity, transparancy, texture of rice) and sensory characteristics (7-point scoring test,18 experienced panel members). Commercial sikhes (6 different companies) exhibited lower sugar content (11.6～12.5$^{\circ}$Brix) and viscosity (5.33～9.33 cP) than home-made one, whereas higher pH (5.93 ～6.87), transparency (9.1～46.5% at 558 m), Hunter L, a and b values. In the texture of rice, commercial sikhe showed higher hardness, springiness and chewiness than those of home-made one in. Sensory evaluation showed that malt and rice content, tex-ture and color of rice, and over-all preference for commercial sikhe was significantly lower than those for home-made one (p<0.05). Especially, the scores of over-all preference for 3 commercial sikhes (2.7～3.6) were much lower than that of home-made one (5.7).

The effects of water, rye flour and vital gluten on the sensory properties of bread were studied by response surface methodology and sensory evaluations. A response surface model was used to evaluate the effects observed and to determine the optimum variations for rye bread. The study included 12 combinations of the following independent variables: Water(57, 62, 67%), Rye flour(0, 10, 30, 50%), and Vital gluten(0, 1, 3, 5%). Bread quality attributes determined were specific volume, color, texture, appearance, taste, chewiness, moisture, overall. Rye bread specific volume, sensory evaluation values and Instrumental testing results were significantly affected by variety (water, rye flour and vital gluten). Rye bread with a high specific volume was produced using water 67%, rye flour 10% and vital gluten 3%. Whereas, rye breads with a high overall sensory evaluation were water 62 %, rye flour 10 % and vital gluten 5%. And Specific volume predicted and overall preference also was shown high. It was shown that the experimental design used provided information about the rye bread of variation of water, rye flour and vital gluten and can be a useful supplement to standardized and optimized formulas in rye bread making. The results suggest that water, rye flour, vital gluten can be combined in rye bread making at various levels, contributing to optimize the functional properties of rye bread. These result represents that breads loaf volume related to directly consumer preference.

Physicochemical and sensory characteristics of turnip Donchimi prepared with Chinese(DC), Korean(DK) and European origin(DE) were analyzed during fermentation at $0^{\circ}C$. Salt concentrations of Dongchimi liquid were around 1.3% during fermentation. The pH, the total acidity, Lactobacilli number and turbidity were observed during fermentation of Dongchmi. DC was fermented the most rapidly among three based on the acidity, turbidity and lactic acid bacteria number. DC maintained higher hardness in textural properties during fermentation compared to DE, although it was evaluated lower scores of appearance in sensory test, and less Hunter color a value and anthocyanin content, compared to DK or DE. DK showed the highest in anthocyanin content, Hunter color a value, and hardness. Sensory evaluation showed that the scores of color, hardness, and overall preference of Donchimi were high in the order of DK>DC>DE. Score of overall preference of turnip Dongchimi was the highest with 6.7(10 cm line scale) in DK at the 40th day of fermentation, the optimum ripening time, but the lowest with 3.5 in DE.

This study was conducted to investigate the physicochemical and sensory characteristics of the fish paste prepared with Astragalus membranaceus powder (0-2.0%). The pH of the samples ranged from 6.75 to 6.86 and the moisture content ranged from 77.19 to 80.18%. Increasing amount of Astragalus membranaceus powder in the fish paste tended to increase the redness and yellowness in Hunter color value. Textural property analysis indicated that the strength of the sample paste increased and its springiness decreased with an increasing amount of Astragalus membranaceus powder. The fish paste prepared with Astragalus membranaceus powder (2.0%), especially, showed the highest values in cohesiveness, brittleness, and gumminess. In addition, all the samples had good flexibility. In sensory evaluation, the addition of 1.0% Astragalus membranaceus powder had the best score in color, texture, taste, and overall preference. Therefore, this results suggest that 1.0% Astragalus membranaceus powder can be applied to produce fish paste with high functionality and sensory preference.

The content of total dietary fiber in biji dried by hot air was 65.40%, and the percent of insoluble fiber and soluble fiber in total dietary fiber was 63.60% and 1.80%, respectively. In testing the feasibility of biji as a fiber source in cake, cakes were prepared with flour substituted with biji powder at the level of 0%, 5%, 10%, 15% and 20%. The Hunter value showed that the crumb colors of the cakes with 10%, 15% and 20% biji powder were significantly different from the control. The specific volume of the cake with 20% biji powder was significantly lower tan the other cakes. Cakes with 5%, 10% and 15% biji powder were les hard than the control after 10 days storage at 2$0^{\circ}C$. Sensory evaluations showed that their characteristics - crumb color, crumb texture, moistness, softness and overall preference - were significantly influenced by the replacement of flour with 10%, 15% and 20% biji powder. However, there was no difference in softness and overall preference of the cake prepared with 5% replacement compared to the control.

Three sensory evaluations were conducted to assess the effect of food color on flavor identification. Elementary students and women university students served as subjects for three evaluations of hard candies, in order to assess color preference, to examine the effect of atypical color on flavor identification and to examine the acceptability of harmony between the color and the perceived flavor. Results showed that inappropriate coloring of the three flavored hard candies induced flavor responses that are normally associated with that color and decreased the acceptability. In addition, the acceptability of colorless candies is lower than that of colored candies. It is suggested from it that when there is no color on the product, even atypical color, it`s harder to identify the flavor and to get a high grade in its preference.

In this study we investigated physicochemical and sensory characteristics of cookies with various levels(0, 3, 6, 9, 12%) of bamboo leaves powder. Spread ratio of control and 3% added sample showed significantly higher value than $6{\sim}12%$ bamboo leaves powder added samples. Loss rate of control showed significantly higher value than other samples. The 'L' and 'b' value was significantly lowed by the addition of bamboo leaves powder. The 'a' value of bamboo leaves powder added samples were significantly lower than control. Share force was increased in proportion to bamboo leaves powder addition level, which had no significance between control and 3% added sample. But Share force showed significantly high level in 9% and 12% added samples. The result of sensory evaluation for color showed the highest preference in 9% added sample and the lowest preference in 3% added sample. Preference of taste was the highest in 9% added sample, hardness was lower by bamboo leaves addition. Overall acceptability was higher in 6% and 9% added samples than others, but they had no significance.
