The baking performance of Cudrania tricuspidata leaf powder as a value-added food ingredient was investigated in a model system of sponge cakes. Cudrania tricuspidata leaf powder was incorporated into cake batter at 5 levels (0, 5, 10, 15, and 20%, w/w) by adding equivalent amount based on total weight of wheat flour. The specific volume, height, moisture content, volume index, and symmetry index of sponge cakes decreased significantly with the increase in Cudrania tricuspidata leaf powder content (p < 0.05). Sponge cakes became darker and firmer with increase in Cudrania tricuspidata leaf powder content (p < 0.05), as indicated by decrease in the $L^*$ and increase in the firmness measured by the texture measuring instrument. Total polyphenol content also increased gradually as the Cudrania tricuspidata leaf powder content increased. Finally, the consumer acceptance test indicated that addition of Cudrania tricuspidata leaf powder up to 10% in the formulation of sponge cakes did not significantly influence the consumers' acceptability with respect to taste and flavor. In addition, the overall acceptability was not different from each other for control and 5% sample (p > 0.05).

This study was carried out to evaluate the effect of ${\beta}$-glucan on rheological properties of flour dough and quality characteristics of white pan bread. Flour dough and white pan bread fortified with ${\beta}$-glucans at levels of 0%, 3%, 6% and 9% w/w. Farinograph and amylograph were analysed for the rheological properties. Loaf volume and specific loaf volume, moisture content, texture and sensory evaluation were also analysed for the quality characteristics. In the farinograph test, water absorption and dough development time of doughs increased with increasing ${\beta}$-glucan content. Especially, water absorption of dough fortified with 9% of ${\beta}$-glucan showed 13% higher than the control. However, the addition of ${\beta}$-glucan to the dough decreased stability. There were no significant differences on gelatinization temperature and maximum viscosity temperature regardless of ${\beta}$-glucan contents, but maximum viscosity increased with increasing ${\beta}$-glucan contents. Loaf volume and specific loaf volume of white pan bread decreased slightly with increasing ${\beta}$-glucan contents. Moisture content showed higher value in tests than that of the control, and the one added with 6% revealed highest moisture content. In terms of texture analysis, the one added with 6% of ${\beta}$-glucan revealed softer than the others. There were no differences between the groups added with 3% and with 6% on sensory evaluation, but the one added with 9% obtained lowest scores. As a result of this study, 6% of ${\beta}$-glucan is considered the resonable level to prepare healthy white pan bread. ${\beta}$-glucan can also be used when making cake and cookies.

Texture and descriptive sensory characteristics of a Korean rice cake (Karedduk) with added mixtures of fructooligosaccharide (95%) and emulsifier, Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate-90 (SSL-90), were investigated after 2 and 24 hr of storage at $5^{\circ}C$. A central composite design was used for the arrangement of treatment. Different levels of fructooligosaccharide (95%), 0, 3, 6, 9, and 12%, were added to dry rice flour. Also, different levels of emulsifier, 0, 0.3, 0.6, 0.9, and 1.2%, were added to the same dry rice flour. The texture properties analysis using a Texture Analyzer revealed that the chewiness, gumminess, and hardness were significantly different. The effect of retarding retrogradation of Korean rice cakes (Karedduk) with added mixtures of fructooligosaccharide (95%) and SSL-90 showed an increasing trend as the amount of fructooligosaccharide (95%) increased. Overall, the instrumental texture properties were highly correlated with the sensory characteristics. The results suggested that Korean rice cakes (Karedduk) with the addition of a mixture of fructooligosaccharide (95%) and SSL-90 can be made from the mixture of 9% fructooligosaccharide (95%) and 0.9% SSL-90 in order to retard starch retrogradation.

Jeon refers to a type of Korean cuisine used as a side dish, made with various ingredients such as meat, vegetables, or fish, mixed with flour batter and coated with egg batter and then pan-fried on both sides with oil so that heat spreads through them well. The aim of this study was to provide a cornerstone of further research on Korean dietary life, by reviewing types, recipes and names of Jeon recorded in ancient cookbooks (Korean literatures) and by analyzing changes in recipes to make Jeon, which our ancestors used wisely as one type of side dish. Considering developments and changes recorded in old documents, the Jeon recipe appeared relatively later than the recipes for grilling, steaming et al, which had been developed much earlier, and it had not been recorded until the 1600s. Changes of Jeon recipes by time period are as follows. In the 1600s, there were three recipes: frying only with grain batter after preparation of ingredients, frying right after preparation of ingredients, and putting ingredients on already fried watery batter. These three recipes were still used in the 1700s, in addition to a new recipe, in which ingredients were oil-fried to be skewered. Today's recipe in which prepared ingredients are fried after getting coated with flour and egg only appeared in 1800s. This has been the main recipe for Jeon ever since. In that time period, there was more variety of recipes and ingredients than before. For instance, Jeon was used for soup or steamed dishes instead of being served as a dish itself. Buchimgae with mixed ingredients was also considered Jeon. In the 1900s, there appeared more names for Jeon as more sorts of ingredients got used, even though there were no new recipes for Jeon. The above-mentioned historical records show that traditional recipes for Jeon have been applied to various dishes, using diverse ingredients, and it might be a smart solution to today's problematic dietary habits involving excessive intake of nutrients, in that it provides a healthy way to add fat. In the same sense, the recipe for Jeon can play an active role in internationalization of Korean foods, in which healthiness is a main feature. According to ancient documents, the recipes for Jeon were used even for meals that were not side dishes, such as Jun-Gwa (Jung-Gwa), Jun-Yak and fried rice-cake. Also, there were dishes using the same recipes even without carrying the name of Jeon, like Buchim or Jijim. This might be worthy of further examination in culinary science.

The effects of fermentation agent and fermentation temperature on the quality of Bori-sangoedduk We examined the effects of fermentation agent and fermentation temperature on the quality characteristics of Bori-sangoedduk a traditional dduk(rice cake) from Jeju, Korea. Bori-sangoedduk was prepared by mixing wheat flour, barely flour, and Borisul or Takju as the fermentation agent the mixture was then fermented at 30, 35, and $40^{\circ}$C. for 3 hr, and steamed. The L- value of the Takju group was higher than that of the Borisul group, and the samples fermented at $30^{\circ}$C in each group had higher than L-values than those fermented at $35^{\circ}$C and $40^{\circ}$C . The a- and b-values did not differ significantly by the fermentation agents and fermentation temperatures. The loaf volume of the Borisul group was higher than that of the Takju group however, there were no significant differences according to fermentation temperature. The values of hardness, springiness, and cohesiveness were lower in the Borisul group than in the Takju group due to a greater number of pores and surface cracks. Hardness, springiness, and cohesiveness values were highest at fermentation temperatures of 30, 35, and $40^{\circ}$C , respectively, in both groups, compared to samples at other temperatures. In the acceptance test, the Takju group was preferred over the Borisul group for appearance, texture, taste, flavor, and overall preference. There were also statistically significant preferences in taste, flavor, and overall preference for samples fermented at $40^{\circ}$C , in both groups, compared to those fermented at $30^{\circ}$C and $35^{\circ}$C. In the descriptive test, there were no differences in color according to fermentation agent and fermentation temperature, however, the Takju group was shinier than the Borisul group. In addition, the Takju group was harder and springier than the Borisul group, and had less sour taste and flavor than the Borisul group. Finally, in terms of overall preference, we found that Bori-sangoedduk made with Takju and fermented at $40^{\circ}$C for 3 hr was the best formula, due particularly to its taste and flavor.

In this paper, we proposed a preparation of Jeung- pyun (Korean fermented steamed rice cake with sour taste and spongy texture) using fuzzy theory. Before this preparation was introduced, it thoroughly analyzed the existing data of Jeung-pyun preparation with sensory evaluation and instrumental measurement. It defined a membership auction of Fuzzy set by analyzed three sorts of data on Jeung-pyun. And it established the Fuzzy model using the quantity of materials as input, such as rice, flour, wheat flour and fermentation time, and the sensory test scores as output, such as grain, softness, sourness, chewiness, overall quality, pH value and volume, respectively. We got the results that the Fuzzy model was accord with the conventional method with sensory evaluation. And the validity of this method is shown through the computer simulation of the test data. Therefore, the proposed method by Fuzzy model will apply to make Jeung-pyun without sensory evaluation. This study will contribute to develop standard preparation for korean foods and expert system of preparation using computer system.

This study was carried out to investigate the quality characteristics of Baiksulgis made of imported rice(Thai and Chinese rice, harvested in 1998) and domestic rice(Chuchung byeo, harvested in 1998 and 1997). Moisture content, color value, yields of reducing sugar by $\beta$-amylase reaction, texture and sensory properties of Baiksulgis were measured. Moisture contents of rice flour and Baiksulgi made of Korean rice harvested in 1997 were highest and those of Thai rice were lowest among the samples. This tends were also seen during storage. Lightness and redness of Baiksulgi made of Thai rice were lowest and yellowness of Baiksulgis made of Korean rice harvested in 1997 and Chinese rice were higher than those made of other rices. Yield of reducing sugar by $\beta$-amylase reaction was highest in Baiksulgi made of Korean rice harvested in 1998 and lowest in Baiksulgi made of Thai rice. And the value decreased less than half of initial value after 24 hour storage. Adhesiveness of Baiksulgi made of Thai rice was zero and cohesiveness, chewiness and gumminess of that were very low. This results showed that Baiksulgi made of Thai rice was lack of chewy texture and this trend was more apparent as the storage time increased. In sensory tests, Baiksulgi made of Chinese rice had most yellowish color and that made of imported rice such as Chinese and Thai rice had more coarse texture than that made of domestic rices. off odor was lowest in Baiksulgi made or Korean rice harvested in 1997 and sweet taste was lowest in that made or Thai rice. Hardness adhesiveness, moistness and chewiness of Baiksulgi made of domestic rices were much higher than those made of impoted rices, and these results showed that Baiksulgi made of domestic rices had acceptable texture. Baiksulgi made of Thai rice showed the lowest acceptability due to lack of above textural characteristics and it was needed to add the material to modify the texture of that.

The purpose of this study was to promote consumption of rice through production of jeungpyun added with blueberry attracting attention as a functional food material and to develop a functional blueberry supplement suited to the preference of Westernized consumers. For that pupose, we performed physicochemical quality test and sensory test after preparing the jeungpyun added with blueberry powder based on a ratio of 1%, 2%, 3%, and 4% of rice flour. The results of this experiment can be summarized as follows. When the addition of blueberry powder increased, the moisture content in jeungpyun decreased, but there was no significant difference between the samples. The lightness and the yellowness related to chromaticity decreased and redness increased when the addition of blueberry powder increased. The pH of the dough in jeungpyun increased significantly (p<0.001) when addition of blueberry powder increased. As the fermentation progressed, the pH tended to decline. The volume of dough decreased when addition of blueberry powder increased. The volume was the highest after the first fermentation, and decreased after the second fermentation. Viscosity decreased significantly as the addition of blueberry powder increased, and increased as fermentation time increased, and decreased after the third fermentation. A test was conducted to determine difference in characteristics, and the results showed that the color intensity, cell uniformity, blueberry flavor and sweetness were strong when the addition of blueberry powder increased. The results of preference test showed that JB3 containing 3% blueberry powder had the best appearance, flavor and overall acceptance.

Jeung-Pyun is a traditional fermented Korean food with rice flour, water, sugar, salt and unrefined rice wine(Takju). In order to investigate how the addition of soybean has an influence on Jeung-Pyun fermentation, changing to adding amount of soybean 0%, 5%, l0%. 15%, 20% based on rice weight, we carried out sensory evaluation and measured the physicochemical properties, instrumental characteristics and degree of gelatinization. The specific volume of Jeung-Pyun was increased as the more soybean was added. The pH of Jeung-Pyun batter was decreased as the fermentation time was longer, but it was increased as more soybean was added. The degree of gelatinization of Jeung-Pyun was decreased as storage day was longer, but it was high as more soybean was added compared to control(0%). In sensory evaluation, Jeung-Pyun added 5∼10% of soybean was good generally. Correlation coefficient between hardness and degree of gelatinization was high. In instrumental characteristics, hardness was increased only in control for room temperature storage(20$^{\circ}C$), but at 4$^{\circ}C$ it was less increased than control(0%) as more soybean was added. Cohesiveness was decreased generally as storage day was longer at 4$^{\circ}C$, but it was less decreased as more soybean was added. In brittleness at 4$^{\circ}C$, Jeung-Pyun of adding soybean was higher compared to control. In surface structure of Jeung-Pyun observerd by SEM. air pore size was small and distributed regularly as more soybean added. In conclusion. it can be suggested that the addition of soybean improve the quality of Jeung-Pyun.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of modified starch, sugars and enzymatic hydrolysis with ${\beta}-amylase$ on extending the self-life of Injulmi, a Korean soft and glutinous rice cake, in terms of maintaining a soft texture. The Injulmi was prepared with or without kneading of waxy rice flour, NaCl and water mixture. The Injulmi was stored at -20, 4 and $20^{\circ}C$ and the hardness was measured to calculate the Avrami exponents during storage. The results showed that cold heading and enzymatic hydrolysis with ${\beta}-amylase$ before steaming of the waxy rice dough significantly extended the self-life on the basis of the Avrami equation. Among the various additives including different kinds of starches, sugars and polymannuronic acid, the addition of 1.5% tapioca starch, 8.0% of glucose or 3.0% of polymannuronic acid was also effective for delaying the retrogradation phenomena during storage. However, despite the effectiveness of these treatments, the Injulmi developed hardness within 2-3 days at $4^{\circ}C$ and within 4 days at $20^{\circ}C$ while storage at $-20^{\circ}C$ showed a storage stability that was maintained over x days. Sensory showed the Injulmi prepared with NOVA-0.005, GL-8.0 had a lower hardness than that of the other treatments.
