In this study red ginseng was extracted with ethanol and then fermented by yeasts including Lactobacillus casei and Bifidobacterium longum. Fermented red ginseng extracts(FRGE) were found to be more effective antioxidants in vitro with regards to 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl(DPPH) radical scavenging activity than red ginseng extracts(RGE). In FRGE, the contents of ginsenosides $Rb_1$, $-Rb_2$ and -Rc were much lower than in RGE, however, the contents of ginsenosides 20(S)$-Rg_3$, 20(R)$-Rg_3$ and compound K were higher than RGE. FRGE was added to Yanggaeng(0, 5, 10, 15, 20%), and physicochemical and sensory evaluations of the Yanggaeng were conducted. The L and b values of Yanggaeng with added FRGE were decreased by increasing the ratio of FRGE, while the a value was increased. Sensory evaluations for, taste, color, flavor, texture and overall acceptability of Yanggaeng with addition of FRGE (10%) were applicable for improving the Yanggaeng product.

The principal objective of this study was to evaluate the physicochemical characteristics of brown rice Dasik prepared with different 5 levels(0, 25, 50, 75, 100%) of modified potato starch powder. We assessed the general compositions, Hunter's color values, the mechanical characteristics, and conducted a sensory evaluation analysis of brown rice Dasik at room temperature($20^{\circ}C$). The more modified potato starch powder composition was increased, the content of ash, protein and fat were significantly decreased(p<0.05). We noted that the luminance of samples were increased the more modified potato starch powder composition was increased, but in Hunter's a and b values were decreased. With regard to the mechanical properties of the Dasik samples, we noted significant differences in hardness, gumminess, chewiness but no differences in springiness, cohesiveness and adhesiveness were detected. The more modified potato starch powder composition was increased, the more the score of hardness, gumminess and chewiness were higher. The results of sensory evaluation showed that there were significant differences on the color, sweetness, mouth-feel, chewiness, overall quality of the Dasik samples(p<0.05). The score of brown rice Dasik with 50%(w/w) modified potato starch(BM2) in color, mouth-feel, chewiness, overall quality were significantly increased than those of other samples.

The objective of this study was to investigate the fermentation characteristics of cheonggukjang made with smoked soybeans. The study found that the amino nitrogen content and pH of cheonggukjang made with smoked soybean (CSS) were significantly elevated compared to that of cheonggukjang made with non-smoked soybeans (CNS). On the other hand, the moisture content of CSS was significantly lower when compared to that of CNS. Moreover, there were no significant differences in the viscous substance content between CNS ($5.8{\pm}0.2%$) and CSS ($5.6{\pm}0.3%$). In terms of colour, the L and b values of CSS were higher than that of CNS, whereas the a value of CNS was higher than that of CSS. Hence, it was confirmed that the total isoflavone contents in CSS ($1,624.6{\pm}53.2{\mu}g/g$) were higher than that in CNS ($1,590.6{\pm}59.3{\mu}g/g$). In both CSS and CNS, the content of genistin was highest followed by glacitin and daidzein. Also, the number of aerobic bacteria in CNS ($8.1{\pm}0.4\;log\;cfu/g$) was higher than that in CSS ($7.3{\pm}0.3\;log\;cfu/g$). Taken together, a smoking process can useful for the development of new cheonggukjang products.

The purpose of this study was to develop a standardized recipe of Hwajeun(glutinous rice pancake with flower) by evaluating various methods appeared in the literature. For this purpose, the effects of the volume and temperature of water used to make dough on the sensory and rheological characteristics of Hwajeun were investigated. This experiment consisted of sensory evaluation in acceptance and intensity(appearance, color, moistness, softness, chewiness, adhesiveness, taste and overall preference), objective evaluation by using texture analyser, color difference meter and measurement of water content and oil absorption ratio. The loss ratio of moisture contents between dough and cooked Hwajeun were 2.4 ~2.8%, and the oil absorption ratio of Hwajeun made by 2$0^{\circ}C$water for kneading increased in proportion to the increment of water added(p＜0.01). In terms of color, b value of Hwajeun made by 104$^{\circ}C$ salted water for kneading showed higher value compared to the others. In the two bite compression test, adhesiveness, springiness, gumminess and chewiness of Hwajeun made by 2$0^{\circ}C$ water(36%) for kneading showed significantly(p＜0.05) high value among the samples. As a result of sensory evaluation, Hwajeun made with 27% of 104$^{\circ}C$ salted water for kneading was most preferred in softness, chewiness, taste and overall preference

This study investigates the quality of strawberry jam containing different quantities of strawberry. Strawberry jam was prepared by the addition of 70-30%(w/w) strawberry puree, Sweetness, pH, total acidity, color, anthocyanin and pectin content, texture, free sugar, and organic acid content of the samples were measured. Decrease in the quantity of the strawberry puree led to a decrease in the following: total acidity(significance value p<0.05), anthocyanin, pectin, total free sugar, frutose, glucose, sucrose, and, organic acid content, namely oxalic acid, citric acid, malic acid, succinic acid, and formic acid. A texture profile analysis showed reduction in the hardness, gumminess, and chewiness of the jam. At the same time, decrease in the puree quantity also led to an increase in the sweetness, pH, L-value, a-value and b-value(significance value p<0.05) of the jam. These results promote, the consumption of fruit that are high in fruit, low in sugar, and do not contain any chemical additives.
