This study investigated the proximate composition, sweetness, color, texture, and sensory properties of baked Gangjung prepared using different coating syrups (maltose syrup, oligosaccharide, rice syrup, and maltitol syrup). The crude protein content was 3.22~3.28% in baked Gangjung prepared with maltose syrup, oligosaccharide, or rice syrup, while that prepared using maltitol syrup had 2.61%. Crude ash was the highest when rice syrup was used (1.08%), and the lowest when maltose syrup or oligosaccharide was used (0.64% and 0.68%, respectively). The sweetness of the baked Gangjung was the highest in the rice syrup group, at $70.07^{\circ}Brix$, and lowest in the maltose syrup group, at $33.5^{\circ}Brix$ (p<0.05). The hardness of the Gangjung prepared with the different coating syrups was the highest for the grain syrup (1.42), followed by the oligosaccharide group at 0.96, maltose syrup (0.40), and maltitol syrup (0.35) (p<0.05). The number of peaks and the indirect measure of crispness also showed the highest values for the rice syrup group (p<0.05), but there was no significant difference among the values in the other groups. Lightness was in the range of 63.26~73.04 depending on the coating syrup, decreasing from the oligosaccharide to the maltitol, rice syrup, and then to the maltose syrup group (p<0.05). The a-value was the highest for the maltose and rice syrup groups at 10.69 and 10.38, respectively (p<0.05), and the b-value showed the same trend. Baked Gangjung showed the highest scores for color, flavor, and overall preference when prepared using maltitol syrup.

In this study, Yukwa(YU-G) was prepared by coating in syrup with water-soluble extracts of Gugija(Lycii fructus). The Yukwa samples were stored with PE film packing with air for 12 weeks at room temperature, after which the quality and shelf-life of the Yukwa were assessed. During storage, the moisture contents of YU-G were higher than those of the Yukwa due to being coated in syrup without water-soluble extracts of Gugija(YU-NG), whereas the instrumental textural hardness values of the YU-G were lower than those of the YU-NG. Color determination indicated that YU-NG and YU-G assumed a darker color after storage, becoming both redder and yellower. The peroxide and acid values increased abruptly in the YU-NG during storage, but increased slowly in the YU-G. During the 12 weeks of storage after preparation, the peroxide and acid values of YU-G remained at less than 40 meq/kg and 4 KOH mg/g, respectively. Thus, the experimental method of syrup coating with water-soluble extracts of Gugija rendered the YU-G fairly stable against fat rancidity. The YU-G evidenced generally higher overall acceptability than YU-NG when stored.

Apple sugaring and apple nectar gel were treated with coating agent, and then the rate of weight loss, browning reaction and fungi growth on the storage conditions of those were investigated. The results obtained were summarized as follows; The composition of sucrose, D-sorbitol, corn syrup, gelatin, arabia gum, citric acid, sodium citrate and sodium ascorbate as a nontoxic coating agent was desirable to repress weight loss browning reaction and fungi growth of apple sugaring and apple nectar gel. It was the most effective method that apple sugaring was treated with the coating agent and refrigerated with double packaging. The contraction by weight loss, browning reaction and fungi growth of apple nectar gel treated with the coating agent and freezed with double packaging were repressed.

Yackwa is used as one of foods prepared for traditional rituals and holidays and enjoyed as snacks. Since Yackwas are fried, they contain oil, which can cause rancidity and undermines the freshness of Yackwas during distribution to retailers, not to mention a high level of calories. The study aims to develop baked Yackwas and analyze the quality in terms of calorie levels and characteristics by baking Yackwas in oven. Calorie level was 4.65 kcal/g in fried Yackwa, 3.96 kcal/g in baked Yackwa, and 2.95 kcal/g in baked peanut Yackwa prior to dip coating of grain syrup. baked Yackwa showed hardness of 13476.33 $g/cm^2$ before dipping in grain syrup, which was harder than 1912.56 $g/cm^2$ of fried Yackwa. After grain syrup coating, hardness of baked Yackwa reduced more significantly, compared with that of fried Yackwa, as grain syrup permeated through texture of Yackwa. And less hardness makes baked Yackwa tastier. Sensory evaluation was measured in a 5-point scale. Scores for texture and taste of baked Yackwa outpaced those of fried Yackwa. Score for the overall quality was 3.65 in baked Yackwa and 3.25 in baked peanut Yackwa, compared to 2.85 of fried Yackwa, indicating a higher potential of commercializing(p<0.05).

This study was carried to investigate the changes in physical and chemical properties of Yukwa during preparation with addition of antioxidants and to develop its storage condition. Antioxidants (tocopherol and Oxyfos) were used in syrup coating and the packaging materials used were PET/EVOH $(16\;{\mu}m)/PL$ : P1 and PET/EVOH $(24\;{\mu}m)/PL$ : P2 (YOP1: P1 with Oxyfos, YOP2 : P2 with Oxyfos, YTP1 : P1 with tocopherol, YTP2 : P2 with tocopherol). Color values measured for Yukwa showed that L values of YOP1, YOP2, YTP1 and YTP2 were changed little during storage while a and b values of YOP1, YOP2, YTP1 and YTP2 were slightly decreased. Hardness and chewiness in textural properties were also decreased during storage. Yukwa packed in YOPl and YOP2 maintained less than 40 in peroxide value during for 12 weeks of storage period. The major fatty acid composition of frying oil were linoleic acid (54.2%), oleic acid (23.4%), palmitic acid (11.3%), linolenic acid (6.5%) and stearic acid (4.6%). There was no difference in composition of fatty acid during storage. Sensory evaluation (Yukwa odor and rancid odor) showed very similar results with determined by electronic nose. YTP1 and YTP2 had maintained sensory characteristics of Yukwa during 10 weeks storage.

Fourteen varieties of Korean chestnut were subjected to the test of adaptability for processing and the possibilities of colored products development. The fruit size of Korean chestnut ranged $11{\sim}18g$ and these small fruits could not be expected to be utilized for the processing of Marron glaces which requires larger size as $25{\sim}30g$. As the storge period is extended the discoloration tendency of chestnut flesh was increasingly developed, however, the fresh chestnut has shown layer-separating phenomenon and ragged surface of fruit which delivers disagreeable appearance to the finished product. The principal factors of discoloration occurred during processing were the behavior of tannin and darkening rate shown on flesh differed each other among varieties; the Chukpa and Yuma variety have exhibited the most serious discoloration and the Taab-b variety, the lightest. Taab-b variety in this connection could be expected to be available for Kanroni processing. For the industrialization of chestnut processing the flame-scorched peeling method is advisable. The capacity of this method is proportional to the square of scorching radius and highly flexible in controlling its performance. As for the processing of colored product, the sugar dehydration and coating and the sugar penetration method demand further study in basical views; however, the canned product of chestnut-redbean has shown the possibility of being utilized as a substitute for or paralleled use with the sugar-syruped canned product which so far has been considered as the only item of export to Japan.
