Noodle texture parameters of Korean style wet and dry noodles and relationships between noodle quality and flour characteristics were evaluated for two years, 1997 and 1998, and at two locations, Suwon and Deokso, using Korean winter wheat cultivars and lines. No significant difference for chewiness was found between cultivars over locations. Noodles made from flours from 1997 showed significantly higher chewiness than those from 1998. Chewiness of cooked noodles showed positively significant correlations with protein content and SDS sedimentation volume and negatively significant correlations with starch peak viscosity and flour swelling volume. Korean winter wheat cultivars, except for Gobunmil, Keumkangmil Tapdongmil, Suwon 265 and Suwon 280, showed chewiness of cooked noodles similar to commercial flours used for noodle making in Korea and Japan.

The characteristics of rice-breads with wet-milling and dry-milling rice-flours were investigated. Rice-breads by wet-milling had a good fermentation than the breads by dry-milling. Also, the fermentation of mugwort rice-breads was lower than those. Rice-breads by dry-milling indicated the higher value in hardness and the lower value in springiness, cohesiveness and chewiness than rice-breads by wet-milling. Also, mugwort rice-breads was the higher value in hardness, springiness, chewiness and the lower value in cohesiveness than rice breads. The test of the sensory characteristics for rice-breads showed that moistness, springiness, chewiness was higher for rice-breads by wet-milling. The sensory characteristics of mugwort rice-breads were lower than those, of rice-breads except the chewiness. Overall quality of rice-breads by wet-milling was higher than that of rice-breads by dry-milling. The overall quality of mugwort rice breads was higher than that of rice-breads by wet-milling, but lower than that of rice-breads by dry-milling.

This study aimed to find the optimum instrumental test conditions for the Texture Profile Analysis (TPA) of cooked rice in order to predict the sensory texture attributes (hardness, adhesiveness, chewiness). Sensory evaluation was performed for three kinds of instant cooked rice with university students in their twenties and the results of the sensory evaluation were compared to instrumental TPA patterns. Using partial least squares regression, the instrumental TPA results at a cross-head speed of 1.0 mm/sec and a compression ratio of 70% proved to be an excellent predictor of the sensory attributes of hardness ($R^2=0.99$) and chewiness ($R^2=0.99$). The results at a cross-head speed of 0.5 mm/sec and compression ratio of 30% provided an excellent model for the prediction of sensory adhesiveness ($R^2=0.83$). In this experimental range, sensory hardness and chewiness showed a high correlation with instrumental TPA parameters (hardness, cohesiveness, adhesiveness, springiness, chewiness) with a high cross-head speed and compression ratio, while sensory adhesiveness showed a high correlation with the TPA parameters with a low cross-head speed and compression ratio.

This study was conducted to evaluate the mechanical (texture and color) and sensory characteristics of mulberry leaf sulgi (MLS) and lotus leaf sulgi (LLS) that contained different ratios of ingredients. MLS and LLS with final concentrations of 0%, 1%, 3% and 5% of powdered mulberry and lotus leaf respectively, were prepared. The texture characteristics (hardness, adhesiveness, springiness, cohesiveness, gumminess, chewiness), color values (lightness, redness, yellowness), and sensory characteristics (color, flavor, moistness, taste, brittleness, chewiness and after-taste) of the different sulgis were then measured and compared. With the exception of gumminess and chewiness, the texture characteristics of 0% MLS, 1% MLS and 3% MLS were not significantly different. The sensory characteristics of 0% MLS had the highest scores, whereas those of 5% MLS were the lowest for all factors except for brittleness. However, with the exception of chewiness, the scores obtained from 0% and 1 % MLS did not differ significantly. In addition, 1% MLS and 3% MLS were not significantly different from each other. Furthermore, the texture characteristics of 0% LLS and 1 % LLS were not different significantly, although the characteristics of 1% LLS were significantly different from those of 3% and 5% LLS when springiness, cohesiveness, and chewiness were considered. Additionally, the sensory characteristics of 0% LLS and 1% LLS were not significantly different, with the exception of brittleness, and the characteristics of 1% LLS and 3% LLS were not significantly different, with the exception of taste and after-taste.

This study compared the texture characteristics and consumer acceptance of cooked wheat noodles produced in four countries, which were Korea, Japan, China, and Italy. Noodle types were selected after FGI (focus group interview). Eleven noodles were studied, and they were categorized into four types: udon, fried udon, oriental noodles of various thickness, and pasta. Color was measured as L (lightness), a (redness), and b (yellowness) values using a colorimeter. Lightness decreased when noodles were cooked, whereas redness and yellowness of cooked noodles were unchanged. Texture properties of wheat noodles in terms of hardness, springiness, cohesiveness, and chewiness were measured using the Rheometer. Italian spaghetti (spgt_IL), Korean fried udon (yk_udng_KR) had highest values for hardness. Korean udon had the highest value for springiness, whereas Chinese medium noodle (mid_CN) had the lowest value (p<0.05). Chinese thick noodle (thick_CN) and fettuccine (fettc_IL) showed lower hardness but higher springiness. Cohesiveness was significantly higher for Japanese udon (udng_JP), Chinese medium noodle (mid_CN), and Chinese thick noodle (thick_CN), whereas values for Korean thin noodle (thin_KR) and Korean fried noodle (yk_udng_KR) were significantly low (p<0.05). Spaghetti (spgt_IL) showed significantly high values for chewiness (p<0.05). For overall acceptability, thick Korean noodle showed the highest score with a level of 'slightly like'. Taste and texture attributes were highest among all noodles, and its high scores for chewiness and smoothness might contribute to its overall acceptance. Korean thick noodle, Korean udon, and Japanese udon were not significantly different from Korean or Japanese thin noodles. Japanese fried noodle (yk_udng_JP) showed the lowest acceptance among noodles in terms of color, flavor, taste, and texture. Chinese thick and medium noodles showed lower scores for overall acceptability, whereas chewiness was not significantly different from other noodles. Spaghetti and fettuccine showed lower scores in terms of overall acceptability, taste, texture, springiness, and chewiness.

These experiments were carried out to study the factors affecting quality and textural characteristics in the preparation of artificial gluten meat (AGM). These results were compared with the raw beef on its properties. Effects of amounts of ingredients on properties of AGM were summarized as follows: 1. On effects of amounts of ingredients, walnut was one of the most factors on the color in AGM The more increased the amounts of walnut, the more decreased hardness, cohesiveness, chewiness, and the more increased springiness and water holding capacity. Therefore, the 30% of walnut added sample became similar to raw beef. 2. The kinds and amounts of oil and mixing methods did not affect on color, shear force, and chewiness, but did on cohesiveness significantly 3. The more increased the salt levels, the better were the hardness and chewiness, but shear force and water holding capacity were not affected. 2% of salt added sample approached to raw beef in hardness, springiness, cohesiveness and chewiness. 4. The more onion levels increased, the more hardness and chewiness decreased.

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 present study investigated the influence of different volumes of red hot pepper juice on the quality characteristics of fresh Pasta noodle. Supplementation with 0% (control), 2.5%, 5%, 7.5%, or 10% red hot pepper juice produced similar gelatinization characteristics of peak viscosity, temperature at peak viscosity, hot paste viscosity and numerical value of breakdown. However, increasing concentrations of red hot pepper juice produced progressively and significantly low cold paste viscosity and setback. The chromaticity of wet and cooked noodles was significantly lower in L value and significantly higher in +a and +b values with increasing volumes of red hot pepper juice. The texture of fresh noodles displayed no significant differences in hardness, adhesiveness and chewiness. The springiness and cohesiveness were lower and higher with the increase of added red hot pepper juice, respectively, but the differences just attained significance. For cooked noodles, adhesiveness, springiness, cohesiveness and chewiness tended to be higher with increasing volumes of red hot pepper juice, but again the differences just attained significance. Cooking characteristics of weight, volume, moisture absorptive power and turbidity decreased with increasing volumes of red hot pepper juice. Sensory characteristics of acceptability including appearance, color, flavor, taste, texture and overall-acceptability improved with increasing red hot pepper juice volume, in particular with 5% and 7.5%. Amylograph characteristics for initial paste temperature positively correlated with the texture characteristics for chewiness (p<0.05). Negatively correlated amylograph parameters included texture for springiness with for peak viscosity (p<0.01), texture for adhesiveness with hot paste viscosity (p<0.01) and breakdown with texture for adhesiveness, cohesiveness and chewiness (p<0.05).
