Cholpyon, a traditional Korean rice cake, was prepared using pigmented rice and the quality characteristics them were compared with Cholpyon made of brown and white ice during 24 hr storage at 20$\^{C}$. In proximate composition, crude protein contents were not significantly different among three rice varieties whereas the contents of crude lipid and ash in pigmented and brown rice were higher than that of white rice. In mechanical characteristics, 100% pigmented rice Cholpyon showed lower values for hardness, cohesiveness, springiness and chewiness, and higher value far adhesiveness compared with those of white rice Cholpyon. These results were maintained for 24 hours. Sensory Characteristics of 100% pigmented rice Cholpyon such as color, hardness and overall quality were better than those of white rice Cholpyon. Brown rice Cholpyon had similar mechanical properties to 100% pigmented rice Cholpyon, but showed the lowest preference in color.

To improve the quality of rice-cake(Cholpyon), raw starch saccharifying (${\beta}-amylase$ from Bacillus polymyxa No. 26 was used in process of raw rice-cake production. 30g of raw rice flour was incubated with $0{\sim}1,200$ RS units of the enzyme for 5 hr at $45^{\circ}C$, and then steamed and stored for 40 hr at $4^{\circ}C$. In instrumental analysis, control group, which was incubated without addition of (${\beta}-amylase$, was completely hardened after incubation for $12{\sim}24$ hr at $4^{\circ}C$. In contrast, enzyme-treated group was not retrograded, and showed a great differences in hardness, cohesiveness and chewiness. On the other hand, in sensory analysis, the effect of the enzyme treatment was higher values of hardness, moistness, and sweetness than these of control group. Therefore, these results clearly suggested that ${\beta}-amylase$ was fully active to degrade raw rice starch in process of rice-cake production, resulting in improvement of starch retrogradation, good digestibility, and taste.
