This study determined the effects of soybean oil$2\%$) and chitosan($1\%$) on the quality characteristics of Omija Jelly made of various starches (mungbean starch, cowpea starch and corn starch). RVA(Rapid Visco Analyzer) viscosity was measured for starches suspended in Omija aextract with $2\%$ soybean oil and $1\%$ chitosan. The color value, syneresis, texture(rupture test and TPA test) and sensory properties of the samples were measured. Gelatinization of cowpea starch was expedited by adding soybean oil and chitosan. Otherwise, gelatinization of mungbean starch and com starch was retarded by adding chitosan. The lightness(L) and the syneresis of Omija Jelly with soybean oil and chitosan were decreased, indicating the increased transparency and stability of Omija Jelly. Rupture stress and rupture energy of Omija Jelly were decreased by adding soybean oil. Rupture stress was increased and rupture energy was decreased by adding chitosan. The addition of soybean oil improved texture of Omija Jelly, indicating that the springiness, cohesiveness and chewiness of Omija Jelly were increased and adhesiveness was decreased. By adding chitosan, the springiness and hardness of Omija Jelly were increased and the cohesiveness and adhesiveness were decreased. The overall acceptability of Omija Jelly made of $6%$ or $7\%$ cowpea starch and com starch was increased by adding soybean oil and chitosan, but the quality characteristics of Omija Jelly made of mungbean starch were not influenced by additives such as soybean oil and chitosan.

Natto, Traditional Japanese food fermented by Bacillus Natto, has been well known for a good nutritional food. However it has particular flavor, so most Koreans are not fond of it. That is the reason why, garlic(2%) and ginseng(2%) were added to make Natto, acceptable to Koreans. General soybean Natto($S_1$), 2% garlic Natto($S_2$), 2% ginseng Natto($S_3$) and blacksoybean Natto($S_4$) were prepared. The proximate composition revealed the most moisture content in $S_2$among the all samples. The most crude protein, crude fat and ash were found in $S_4$. The non-fibrous and fiber contents were the most in $S_1$and $S_3$. In the texture characteristics, hardness and gumminess were the highest in $S_4$. The highest springness and cohesiveness were found in $S_1$. Adhesiveness and chewing were the best in $S_2$and $S_3$. The minerals composition revealed the most calcium content in $S_3$among the all samples. Fatty acid compositions were mainly consisted of linoleic acid(46.91~48.47%). In the sensory evaluation, $S_3$showed the best preference, appearance and color. In the aspects of taste and texture, $S_4$was mostly preferred. Flavor and viscosity of $S_2$were the best among the all samples. The general soybean Natto($S_1$) without any addition showed low values in most examinations and tests. In the sensory evaluation, $S_3$has the best overall acceptability among the all experimental Nattos.

Purpose: The aim of this study was to evaluate the quality characteristics of rice nutritional bars prepared by adding Chinese artichoke (CA) powder to the rice powder. Methods: CA rice nutritional bars were prepared with various levels of CA powder (0%, 5%, 10%, 15%, and 20%) and designated as CA0 (without CA powder), CA5, CA10, CA15, and CA20, respectively. The total phenolic content, DPPH free radical scavenging activity, moisture content, pH, baking loss rate, leavening rate, volume, color, texture analysis, and sensory evaluations of rice nutritional bars were performed. Results: The total phenolic content and DPPH free radical scavenging activity exhibited an increase with increase in the substitute amount of CA powder. The results showed that the pH of rice nutritional bars decreased in all sample groups as the content of CA powder increased. The volume of the sample group with CA powder was higher than that of CA0. As the content of CA powder increased, lightness of the rice nutritional bars crumbs decreased while redness and yellowness increased. The texture analysis of rice nutritional bars showed that hardness, gumminess, and chewiness were the highest in CA0 while springiness and cohesiveness were the lowest in CA0. With respect to characteristic intensity rating, the taste, flavor, and softness of rice nutritional bars increased with increasing amounts of CA powder. In terms of consumer acceptability, CA15 and CA20 received the highest scores with respect to texture. Conclusion: Therefore, the results of this study indicate that replacing 15% of the rice powder with CA led to an efficient enhancement in the antioxidant and nutritional values of rice nutritional bars as well as the sensory quality.

Objective: Marbling or intramuscular fat (IMF) has been widely reported to directly impact the sensory acceptance of meat. This study was carried out to determine the physical and sensory characteristics of ribeye, Longissimus dorsi steaks obtained from four different cattle breeds namely Wagyu, Angus, Brahman, and Malaysian local beef, the Kedah-Kelantan (KK). Methods: The degree of marbling was determined by using an established combined camera-image analysis technique while instrumental texture determination was carried out by using Warner-Bratzler shear force analysis. Sensory evaluation of the beef steaks was performed following a quantitative descriptive analysis incorporating 10 trained consumer panelists. Results: Wagyu was found to possess the highest (p<0.05) percentage of IMF at 33.90% and the lowest shear force (raw = 5.61 N/㎟; cooked = 14.72 N/㎟) followed by Angus (20.87%), Brahman (12.17%), and KK (p<0.05, 6.86%). The difference in sensory properties of the four steaks was evident, with Wagyu appearing to be highly correlated with most sensory attributes measured namely sustained buttery, tooth-packing, chewiness, juiciness, tenderness, mouthfeel, oiliness, and overall acceptability. The Malaysian local beef, KK was found to be less acceptable (p<0.05), although most of its sensory attributes were found similar (p>0.05) in appearance, aroma, texture, juiciness, and flavour to the cooked steak from Angus and Brahman. Conclusion: This present study demonstrated the role of IMF in determining the quality and sensory acceptance of beef from different cattle breeds. These data have provided new information and further understanding on the physical and sensory quality of Malaysian local beef.

This study investigated the quality characteristics of baked rice cake using dry and wet rice flour. The moisture contents, color values, texture and sensory evaluation(attribute difference and acceptance) for the samples were tested. The moisture content of baked rice cake was the highest in rice cake baked with non- glutinous rice of dry type, and rice cake baked in dry type had weaker brownishness and therefore had higher brightness value compared to the rice cake baked in wet type. In relation to the texture, the hardness was found to be the highest in the rice cake baked with wet non- glutinous rice, and the rice cake baked with glutinous rice was found to be soft. The hardness was the lowest in both wet and dry glutinous rice, and was the highest in the wet non- glutinous rice. Attribute difference test of samples showed that, the rice cake baked with glutinous rice showed clear manifestation of springiness, moistness, adhesiveness, and gumminess (except for the harness). Although the cake baked with dry rice powder showed no significant difference, the dry glutinous rice flour was preferred the most. The rice cake baked with wet glutinous rice flour was preferred the most in terms of flavor, taste, texture, and overall acceptability.

The healthy yogurt containing pumpkin was developed and evaluated an antioxidant effect of pumpkin in yogurt during storage. For the preparation of pumpkin yogurts, 15, 20 or 25 g of pumpkin level. and 5, 6 or 7 g of sugar level were added to 100 ml milk. There was a trend for more desirable color and texture of pumpkin yogurt at 20 g pumpkin level than 15 or 25 g pumpkin level. Pumpkin yogurt contained 7 g sugar level had a more desirable flavor, texture and overall accetability than those contained 5 or 6 g sugar level. To evaluate antioxidant effect of pumkin in yogurt during stroage, yogurts were prepared by milk alone, with pumpkin, with sugar, and with sugar and pumpkin. The sugar and pumpkin levels in yogurt were 7 g and 20 g per 100 ml milk. The malondialdehyde(MDA) content of yogurt prepared by milk alone were significandy affected by days of storage. During 13 days storage of yogurt, pumpkin and sugar exhibited antioxidant effect.

This study investigated the quality characteristics of sponge cakes with addition of yam (Dioscorea) powders prepared by different drying methods, hot air (HDYP : hot air dried yam powder) and freeze drying (FDYP: freeze dried yam powder), using several physical and sensory examinations. For the foam forming ability and foam stability, the specific gravities of egg foams containing 5% yam powders were measured by drainage using funnels for 78 hrs. The results showed that HDYP and FDYP did not affect the foam forming ability but FDYP increased foam stability due to increased viscosity. When the strength of 8% gels composed of wheat starch and HDYP/FDYP was measured to predict the setting of cake structure, the strengths of starch gels containing yam powders were higher than those of control without yam powders. The volume of sponge cake containing 5% HDYP increased whereas those containing FDYP decreased at the levels of 5, 7%. From the texture profile analysis data, hardness, gumminess and chewiness of cakes containing yam powders increased. The color of cake crust and crumb became darker as the amount of yam powders increased. The results of sensory evaluation by QDA (quantitative descriptive analysis) to compare two different drying methods showed that appearance and texture of cakes containing 5% HDYP were closer to those of control than cakes containing 5% FDYP but overall acceptability of sponge cakes containing yams were comparable to the control cakes regardless of drying methods. The addition of yam powders to sponge cakes increased yam flavor and decreased egg smell. Therefore, it can be suggested that HDYP and FDYP can be added to the sponge cake formula up to 7% and 5%, respectively.

Purpose: This study was to investigate the quality characteristics of wet noodle added with radish juice containing with pulp. Methods: Wet noodles were prepared with different amounts of radish juice (0%, 20%, 40%, 60%, 80%, 100%, w/w) instead of water. Results: As the amount of radish juice was increased, water absorption, volume increasing rate, and turbidity of soup were decreased. Lightness (L) values of uncooked wet noodles and cooked noodles were decreased with the addition of radish juice, while redness (a) and yellowness (b) values had no tendency of increasing or decreasing, regardless of the amount of radish juice. Moreover, lightness, redness, and yellowness values of uncooked noodles were higher than those of cooked noodles. The texture of cooked noodles showed significant differences in hardness and chewiness. It was increased as the amount of radish juice was increased. Their adhesiveness and springiness were lower than those of the control. Appearance, texture, and overall acceptability of sensory evaluation revealed that the noodle added with 80% of radish juice had the highest scores, although there were no differences among noodles added with different amounts of radish juice. Conclusion: In summary, the most desirable blending ratio of radish juice and water for the kneading of wet noodles was 80:20.

These experiments focused on processing low sugar fig jam having marketability by selected substitute for extracted and purified pectinesterase (PE), colorant for colour improvement, food additive to make texture better, and stabilizer for stable storage. Cherry tomato pulp as PE substitute to hydrolyze pectin substance in fig pulp into low-methoxyl pectin was most effective among used vegetables and fruits pulp. Carmacid-R among natural colorants for imprving colour, addition of 20% starch syrup as sugar substitute for texture and addition of $MULTIPHOSE^{TM}$ for red colour change control at cold storage were effective. The low sugar fig jam processed by using the above selected materials showed higher score than others (typical jam and orange PE low sugar fig jam) for colour in sensory evaluation and did no significant difference in taste, odor, texture and overall acceptability.
