In this study, rice was cooked with 0%, 0.5%, 1.0% and 2.0% green tea powder content to improve functionality of cooked rice. The effects of green tea powder content on the physical, texture and sensory characteristics of cooked rice were examined. Moisture contents of cooked rice with green tea powder were decreased with increasing amounts of added green tea powder. Initial pasting temperature of rice powder was showed an increase with increasing amounts of added green tea powder, besides peak viscosity was decreased. The solubility and swelling power were decreased with increasing amounts of added green tea powder. The color of cooked rice was darkened gradually with the increasing amounts of added green tea powder, and showed the dark green. Sensory adhesiveness was gradually decreased with the increasing amounts of added green tea powder, and cohesiveness, gummness, chewiness and hardness were increased. Sensory glassiness, overcook, stickiness and hardness had lower score than control group, but sensory color, flavor and overall acceptability had higher score with addition of 1.0% and 2.0% green tea powder. Concludingly, in items of overall sensory, cooked rice with 1.0% green tea powder showed the best result.

Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is one of the most important food crops in the world. The eating quality of cooked rice is the most important trait japonica rice breeding in Korea. Rice varieties that produce kernels that are firm and fluffy after cooking are generally favored in countries such as India, Pakistan, and Indonesia. Whereas varieties with kernels that maintain its shape, glossiness, savory odor, stickiness, and tenderness when cooked are preferred in Korea. This study analyzed the major physicochemical components of rice grain associated with the eating quality of 20 japonica rice varieties. Physicochemical components such as the amylose content, protein content, amylographic characteristics of polished rice, and texture of cooked rice were tested using a Tensipresser as alternative indirect methods in determining rice eating quality. Evaluation of eating quality of cooked rice using sensory test was conducted with 20 well trained members. The 20 rice varieties in different eating quality showed amylose contents of 17~20%. The amylose content of rice varieties had negative correlation with peak viscosity, however positive correlation with setback viscosity was observed. The stickiness and adhesiveness of cooked rice showed correlation with the amylose content and amylopectin chain length distribution. Rice varieties with good eating quality showed less retrogradation of cooked rice and higher hot viscosity of rice flour in amylogram.

The baking properties of rice bread with different percentages of butter and oil in wet and dry rice flour were investigated. The moisture, damaged starch, mean diameter, pasting properties by amylogram and RVA (Rapid Visco Analyzer), as well as thermal properties by DSC (Differential Scanning Calorimetry) of wet and dry rice flour were analyzed. The specific gravity and color (L, a, b) of the dough, as well as the appearance, color (L, a, b) and texture of the rice bread with different percentages of butter and oil in wet and dry rice flour were also analyzed. As a result, the wet rice flour were composed of a noted higher content in moisture, compared to the dry rice flour (p<0.001). The wet rice flour had lower values of damaged starch, higher values of mean diameter and a higher peak viscosity than was noted in the dry rice flour (p<0.001). The wet rice flour showed a higher degree of hydration and gelatinization than was seen in the dry rice flour (p<0.001). The prevailing principle to utilize the replacement of wet rice flour with oil had a significant effect on the volume, specific volume and hardness of the rice bread (p<0.001). The hardness of the rice bread also showed a decreasing trend as the amount of the added oil was increased into the mixture. These results suggest that the replacement of wet rice flour with 5.8% oil is effective for the production of rice bread.

Gelatinized rice flours were prepared by drum drying at different moisture contents of slurry made from dry milled and wet milled rice flours. Milled rice samples were prepared from the Chuchung and the Samgang varieties. Degree of gelatinization of drum-dried rice flours revealed over 92% at 60% moisture content of wet milled rice flours and 80% moisture content of dry milled ones. With regards to amylogram and rheological properties, drum-dried rice flours prepared from wet milled raw materials showed higher viscosity than from dry milled ones. Increasing water contents in the slurry increased water absorption index(WAI) and decreased water solubility index(WSI). Hunter's color values of drum-dried rice flour at high moisture contents showed higher L values and lower b values. For the preparation of gelatinized rice flours by drum drying process, the higher water content caused more gelatinized network structure of rice starch in scanning electron micrographs. With regards to farinogram properties of dough with drum-dried rice flours and wheat flours in mixing ratio of 1 to 9 by weight, drum-dried rice flours made from wet milled raw rice flours revealed higher MTI than from dry milled ones.

Starch characteristics and pasting properties of Tongil-type rice varieties with different amylose content were analyzed. Three different Tongil-type rice varieties and one Japonica-type rice variety were examined for their properties. Tongil-type rice varieties have longer panicles and higher rice yield (721-765 kg per 10a) than Boramchan, a Japonica-type high-yield rice variety. The protein content of the Tongil-type rice variety was higher than that of Boramchan. Japonica-type rice varieties had lower amylose content than Japonica-type rice varieties, except for Amimyeon (Milyang355). Amimyeon had higher protein content than the other varieties, and its amylose content was particularly high at 39.2%. The distribution of starch granule sizes of the four varieties was similar, and the particle size corresponding to D50 was approximately 87.8-81.9 ㎛. The pasting properties of rice flour varied among varieties. The Dasanbyeo and Hanarum2 amylogram patterns were similar. These two varieties had a higher peak viscosity (PV) and lower setback (SB) than Boramchan. In the case of Amimyeon, the hot paste viscosity (HPV), cool paste viscosity (CPV), and SB were significantly higher than those of the other Toingil-type varieties, and the breakdown (BD) was very low, showing pasting properties significantly different from that of the other varieties. The onset (T_o), peak (T_p), and conclusion temperature (Tc) of gelatinization of rice flour from Amimyeon were lower than those of the other tested varieties. In addition, the gelatinization temperature, measured using differnetial scanning calorimetry (DSC), and BD, measured using al rapid visco analyzer (RVA) were low in Amimyeon. Amylose content showed a high positive correlation with pasting time (PTi), HPV, and SB and a negative correlation with PV and BD.

Six commercial rice varieties were cultivated at different locations in 1987 and 1988. Rice samples harvested from 8 to 20 locations for a variety each year were used to measure or observe grain appearance, amylose content and alkali digestibility, cooked rice texture using rheometer, gelatinization and viscosity of rice flour using amylograph, and eating Quality of cooked rice by sensory evaluation. Relationship between Quality characteristics showing large locational variation were analized to approach the long-term objective, rice grain Quality standardization. Percent white-center and white-belly grain of the same variety showed great variation between locations, but did not affect on 1000-grain weight, amylose content and alkali digestibility, amylogram and rheogram characteristics, and eating Quality of cooked rice. Positive correlationship were obtained between maximum viscosity and break down, and maximum viscosity and alkali digestibility. Set back was correlated negatively with maximum viscosity, break down and alkali digestibility. Rice samples having significantly lower values of maximum viscosity and break down and higher set back value at the same time showed higher ADV and lower texture palatability index (TPI) and viscousness/hardness ratio (Vi/H), and lower sensory evaluation score of cooked rice compared with those of rices having typically higher values of maximum viscosity and break down and lower set back value. When TPI, Vi/H and overall sensory eating score of cooked rices measured were divided into three categories, high, medium and low using deviation from locational mean value of a variety, many of rice samples having high TPI or high Vi/H showed medium or high in overall sensory eating score of cooked rice.

This study was performed to determine the relative quality of mungbeans harvested in bulk after applying a labor-saving cultivation (LSC) method, compared to mungbeans harvested three different times under the conventional cultivation condition. There was no significant difference in starch, crude protein, and vitexin or isovitexin content of seed according to the cropping system or harvest time. The mungbeans grown under the LSC method had the highest crude fat content, followed by mungbeans from the third-, the second- and the first-harvest mungbeans under the conventional cultivation. No significant difference was found in the composite ratio of saturated fatty acids to unsaturated fatty acids according to cropping system or harvest time. The second-harvest mungbeans grown under the conventional cultivation condition had 17 different types of fatty acids, while the third-harvest mungbeans grown under the conventional cultivation and those grown under the LSC condition had the fewest types of fatty acids with 12. Of the major saturated fatty acids, palmitic acid and arachidonic acid had the highest composite ratio in the first conventional cultivation followed by the second, the third and the LSC. However, stearic acid showed the opposite tendency. Of the major unsaturated fatty acids, linoleic acid had the highest composite ratio in the first conventional cultivation, followed by the second and third conventional cultivation and the LSC. Amylogram characteristics of the mungbeans were significantly different according to cropping system and harvest times. The mungbeans harvested after the first conventional cultivation had significantly higher pasting temperature, peak viscosity, holding strength viscosity, final viscosity and breakdown, while mungbeans harvested after the third conventional cultivation had significantly higher setback viscosity. In contrast, the mungbeans harvested under the LSC methods had a significantly lower amylogram value. When harvest rate, color values and amino acid content of sprout were measured, mungbeans grown under the LSC conditions had a low harvest rate of sprout, but had Hunter's color values and amino acid content of sprout similar to those of mungbeans grown under the conventional cultivation condition.

Naked barley flour(Baekdong cultivar) was examined with respect to its pasting properties by means of Brabender amylograph after adding barley lipids, fatty acids, vegetable oils and emulsifiers at 1% level. Amylogram of barley flour showed a similar gelatinization temperature but higher paste viscosities at all reference points as compared with wheat flour. Barley flour showed lower amylograph curves by defatting with n-hexane, namely reductions in initial gelatinization point, maximum viscosity and setback value. But re-addition of n-hexane extract to the defatted flour essentially reproduced the curve obtained in the undefatted flour. Addition of polar and nonpolar lipids exhibited different effects on the pasting properties of barley flour. Polar lipids generally increased maximum viscosity a little while non-polar lipids increased the maximum viscosity substantially. Addition of increasing amounts of nonpolar lipids was found to progressively increase the maximum viscosity. Addition of fatty acids increaed th maximum viscosity and delayed the peak time. The maximum viscosity of defatted barley flour impregnated with unsaturated fatty acids was higher than that of defatted barley flour impregnated with saturated fatty acids Increasing amounts of linoleic acid were fount to progressively increase the maximum viscosity and to delay the peak time of defatted barley flour. Addition of six vegetable oils lowered the gelatinization temperature and rasied the maximum viscosity and temperature at maximum viscosity. Addition of increasing amount of peanut oil was found to decrease the maximum viscosity. The effect of emulsifiers was greater in undefatted flour than in defatted flour. The maximum viscosity of defatted flour was slightly affected by Methocel 50, Methocel 1500 and Emulthin, and substantially increased by Methocel 4000, sodium polyacrylate and calcium stearyl lactylate.

The study examined and compared the physicochemical and characteristics of various rice brand varieties and private brand products on the market. The moisture content in the proximate composition of rice was 15.67~17.03%, crude protein content was 5.73~6.30%, crude lipid content was 0.38~0.95%, and crude ash content was 0.23~0.56 %. Ilmi and Ilpum had high moisture content, whereas Gosihikkari and Hopyeong had high crude protein content. In the Hunter's color value of rice flour, L value was 96.76~97.27, a value was -1.63~-0.63, and b value was 2.00~2.60. The WAI was 1.21~1.39, WSI was 0.63~0.93%, and amylose content was 14.63~20.86%, respectively; Gosihikkari and Ilmi showed the lowest values. The X-ray diffraction patterns of rice flours of all varieties showed an A shape. For the amylogram properties of rice flour, initial pasting temperature was $59.57{\sim}63.23^{\circ}C$, maximum viscosity was 569.00~718.67 B.U. (Brabender Units), breakdown was 303.00~423.67 B.U., and setback was 212.67~265.33 B.U.. For differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) of rice flour, onset temperature was $54.66{\sim}58.63^{\circ}C$, peak temperature was $65.87{\sim}68.14^{\circ}C$, end temperature was $73.37{\sim}75.54^{\circ}C$, and enthalpy was 1.98~2.95 cal/g. The rice varieties with high internal density and initial pasting temperature as well as low crude protein content, WAI, amylose content, and setback can be classified as good. Gosihikkari in Gyeonggi Province, Ilmi and Hopyeong in Jeollanam-do, and Samgwang in Chungcheongnam-do are among them.
