The purpose of this study is to compare preferences of consumers between food items made from modified cassava flour and plain flour using sensory tests. This study is a qualitative research with an experimental approach and four food items, namely streamed brownies, cookies, fried mushrooms, and seasoning flour have been used for the study. Each of these food items are made from modified cassava flour and plain flour. Panelists wore blindfolds and tasted the food items except the seasoning flour. Based on the data analysis, the panelists have different preferences towards the four food items. The result of the paired Wilcoxon test showed that there is not any different preference in terms of taste of steamed brownies made from mocaf or plain flour, while there is a significant difference in terms of color, aroma, texture, and appearance between the steamed brownies made from mocaf and plain flour. Consumers decide to buy products made from mocaf because these products use local flour and are gluten-free. This article describes the customer's preference based on sensory analysis between products made from mocaf and ones made from plain flour. The result can be used as the basis for developing food items made from local flour and alternative food for customers allergic to gluten.

New gluten-free food product (tarhana) was produced using rice and com flours. Chemical and sensory properties of the tarhana samples were investigated and compared with those of traditional wheat tarhana. Generally, sensory analysis results indicated that utilization of com and rice flours in tarhana resulted in acceptable soup properties in terms of some of the sensory properties. The changes in electrophoretic properties of the proteins of the tarhana samples were also studied during the tarhana production. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacryamide gel electrophoresis (SDS-PAGE) results showed that relative intensities of some of the protein bands in tarhana samples generally decreased during fermentation. The decrease was more obvious at the larger molecular weight region. Corn and rice tarhana seem to be promising food products for the celiac patients who have limited choice of cereal based foods.

Wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a major staple foods and is in increasing demand in the world. The elevated temperature caused by changes in climate and environmental conditions is a major factor affecting wheat development and grain quality. The optimal temperature range for winter wheat is between 15 and 25℃, and it is necessary to study the physiological characteristic of wheat according to elevated temperatures. This study presents the effect of elevated temperature on the yield and quality of two Korean bread wheat (Baekkang and Jokyoung) in temperature gradient tunnels (TGT). Two bread wheat cultivars were grown in TGT at four different temperature conditions: T0 (control, near ambient temperature), T1 (T0+1℃), T2 (T0+2℃), (T0+2℃), T3 (T0+3℃). The period from sowing to heading stage accelerated and the number of grains per spike and grain yield reduced under T3 condition compared with those under T0 condition. Grain filling rate and grain maturity also accelerated with elevated temperature (T3). The increase in temperature led to the increase in protein contents, whereas decreased the total starch contents. These results are consistent with the decreased expression of starch synthesis genes and increased gliadin synthesis or gluten metabolism genes during the late grain filling stage. Taken together, our results suggest that the increase in temperature (T3) led to the decrease in grain yield by regulating the number of grains/spike, whereas increased the protein content by regulating the expression of starch and gliadin-related genes or gluten metabolism process genes expression. In addition, our results provide a useful physiological information on the response of wheat to heat stress.

Wheat is a very important crop as a food source worldwide, but gluten in wheat causes a variety of allergic reactions. Previous studies have developed ${\omega}-5$ gliadin deleted O-free, known as the central antigen of WDEIA (wheat-dependent exercise-induced anaphylaxis). In this study, we performed RNA sequencing on the grains and leaves of the allergic-reduced species O-free and their cultivars, Keumkang and Olgeuru, to analyze differentially expressed genes (DEG) based on different cultivars and tissues. Tissues of all species were biologically repeated three times. We used bowtie2 version 2.3.5.1 to get sequence data from RNAseq and used cufflinks and Tophat programs to find DEG. When comparing leaf and grain tissues, a total of 1,244 DEGs were found in the leaf tissues while only 563 DEGs were found in the grain tissues. As a result of gene ontology analysis of differentially expressed genes, the leaf tissues were mostly included in the "catalytic activity" part of molecular function, "metabolic process" part of biological process, and "membrane" part of cell component. The grain tissues were mostly included in the "metabolic process" part of biological process, "binding" and "catalytic activity" part of molecular function, and "membrane, cell, cell part" parts of cell component. Based on these results, we present information on the differentially expressed genes of the three cultivars of leaves and grains. This study could be an important basis for studying the characteriztion of O-free.

Hydrolyzed wheat gluten (HWG) and low glutamic acid (Glu) hydrolyzed wheat gluten with different quantities of NaCl were reacted with several precursors to develop natural meat flavor based on Maillard reaction products (MRP). The MRP based flavors were analyzed for their pH, browning index, DPPH radical scavenging effect, and sensory properties. Synthetic meat flavor from low Glu hydrolyzed wheat gluten with 7% NaCl and ribose, cysteine, methionine, thiamin, lecithin, and garlic powder reacted at $140^{\circ}C$ for 30 min and were most favorable for a roasted meat flavor. Based on an omission test, cysteine was selected as the most important precursor for producing meat flavor compared to methionine, thiamine, and lecithin. Natural precursors including mushroom powder and fat medium were applied to compensate for the synthetic precursors. The optimum formula for meat flavor was 5% ribose, 7.7% cysteine, 6.9% garlic juice powder, 2.1% Lentinusedodes powder digested with protease, and 1% lard. The sulfuric pungent, oily, and salty attributes of the formula decreased and a mild roasted meat flavor was expressed.

Effect of Rubus coreanum Miquel and Opuntia ficus-indica var. saboten in combination with chicken breast and wheat gluten on functional properties and physicochemical characteristics during processing of cooked noodles were investigated. These studies were carried out to investigate functional properties of Rubus coreanum Miquel and Opuntia ficus-indica var. saboten by the antioxidant ability. Antioxidant activities were evaluated by electron donating, xanthine oxidase inhibition rate and contents of total polyphenols. Overall, the antioxidant activities of hot water extracts were a little higher than those of ethanol extracts. Also, the antioxidant abilities at the concentration of 1,000 ppm in hot water extracts were higher than those of ethanol extracts by the determination of total polyphenol content and DPPH, which showed 150.25 mg% in extracts of Rubus coreanum Miquel and showed 69.36% in extracts of Opuntia ficus-indica var. saboten. The effects on processing characteristics of cooked noodles were investigated in combination with transglutaminase (TGase), plant extracts, wheat gluten and chicken breast. Cooking time was very short as 340 second in CB (cooked breast), compared to other treatments. In contrast, NCB (non cooked breast) took a longer time as 779 second. Also, CB was higher than NCB, which showed 146.3% in CB and 61.5% in NCB in water absorption ratio during cooking of noodles. Tubidity of soup was the lowest at 0.240 in NCBT (non cooked breast transglutaminase), which means the lowest loss of solid in noodle during cooking. In case of treatment of TGase, overall texture properties were higher than other samples in hardness, cohesivness, springness and gumminess. In sensory evaluations, cooked noodles treated with TGase showed a higher percentage of overall acceptability than other treatments.

This study investigated the effects of the mixing ratio of tofu paste and normal corn starch on the characteristics of gluten-free (GF) muffins. Soft wheat flour for wheat flour-based muffins (control) was replaced with the mixture of tofu paste and normal corn starch (NCS). The mixing ratios of tofu paste and NCS were 1:6.4 (S100), 1:5.1 (S80), 1:3.8 (S60), 1:2.6 (S40), 1:1.3 (S20), and 1:0 (S00), based on their total solid contents. GF muffins of S40-S100 developed the porous, sponge-like structure without crumb collapse. The weight and baking loss did not significantly differ in the control and GF muffins. By decreasing NCS in GF muffin batters, the moisture content, firmness, and crumb redness/yellowness of GF muffins increased, while their volume, specific volume, and crumb lightness decreased. Nevertheless, these characteristics (except for firmness) of S100 were much closer to those of the control. In the preference test, however, S60 (possessing lower attributes than S100 and S80) was most favored among GF muffins, and was very similar in all evaluations (except for appearance) to the control. Overall, the mixture of tofu paste and NCS would be a potential material to replace soft wheat flour in muffins.

Rice bread premix was prepared from rice flour and vital wheat gluten, and the changes in the premix properties were studied during storage at 5, 25 and $35^{\circ}C$ for 4 months. Optimum level of 14-17% vital gluten could be added to the rice bread premix. The pH, sedimentation value, and Pelshenke value of the rice bread premix decreased with increasing storage period, whereas water retention capacity (WRC) and alkaline water retention capacity (AWRC) increased with increasing storage temperature. Mixograph peak time increased with increasing storage temperature. Rapid Visco Analyser (RVA) peak viscosity and setback values increased with increasing storage temperature and period. Decreased loaf volume was observed at the rice bread prepared from the premix during storage, especially at higher temperatures. Crumb hardness of the rice bread prepared from the premix increased during 4-month storage period.

When baking, the proper blending or mixing of materials will affect the quality of the product. The mixing strength is important when establishing the optimal conditions for batter, and control of the mixing condition is accordingly an important factor. This study investigated the effects of the mixing speed and time on the quality characteristics of a gluten-free type of rice batter. The batter samples manufactured for this purpose are as follows: control (+) (wheat flour), control (-) (rice flour), T1 (1,800 rpm, 1 min), T2 (1,800 rpm, 2 min), T3 (1,800 rpm, 3 min), T4 (3,600 rpm, 1 min), T5 (3,600 rpm, 2 min), T6 (3,600 rpm, 3 min). In this study, rice flour was used in the T1 to T6 samples. The pH of the batter tended to be higher when the mixing speed was slower and the time was shorter depending on the ultra-high mixing conditions. The moisture content of T3 was highest, and there was no difference according to the ultra-high speed conditions. The specific volumes of the ultra-high mixing treatments were higher than those of the control samples. The relationship between the specific volume, hardness and springiness of rice bread according to the mixing speed and time was weak. Therefore, it is considered that the application of ultra-high speeds when manufacturing gluten-free batter can have a positive effect on improving the production efficiency by reducing the processing time.

This study was intended to make Korean type of sourdough bread using domestic wheat produced in Korea, while measuring and analyzing gluten content, pH level, TTA level and mixograph of wheat to extract the most excellent sourdough starter. Furthermore, this study also used CrumbScan to compare and analyze the properties of product as shown in making sourdough bread with the above starter. pH level ranged from 4.0 to 4.5 throughout all kinds of Korean wheat flour, which were considered to be appropriately available as sourdough starter. As the result of analysis from mixogram, SP fit for making bread but korean wheat flour showed less level of mixing tolerance and content of protein, which were considered inappropriate for making bread. As the result of imaging analysis by CrumbScan, SF, KWF 5and KWF 6 showed the higher fineness and elongation than any other kind of korean wheat flour, which were considered appropriate for making bread.
