This research intends to examine the quality characteristics of madeleines after adding drying frozen mulberries by freeze drying and hot-air drying, making them powdered. The general ingredients and physiochemical characteristics of each specimen were measured, compared and analyzed. Madeleines were made based on the recipe set in practical examination of bakery technicians, in which each specimen is added with 0%(control), 1%, 3%, 5%, 7% of mulberry powder depending on the quantity of flour. And then, pH, chromaticity and texture were measured and consumer preferences were grasped by sensory testing. The test results are as follows. First of all, pH was low in the group added with hot-air drying mulberry powder. In chromaticity, brightness(L value) was reduced in comparison with the control group as the addition rates of freeze-drying mulberry powder and hot-air drying mulberry powder increased. Red chromaticity(a value) increased more when adding hot-air drying mulberry powder rather than freeze-drying mulberry powder. Yellow chromaticity(b value) was reduced as addition of mulberry powder increased. Hardness and elasticity of the group added with freeze-drying mulberry powder showed significant differences as addition of mulberry powder increased. Cohesiveness and gumminess was reduced as the addition increased. Hardness of madeleines added with hot-air drying mulberry powder showed significant differences by addition rates of mulberry powder. Elasticity increased by the quantity of mulberry addition. Cohesiveness was reduced as the addition was reduced. Gummines increased as the addition increased. As the result of sensory test on preference, the preferences of the group added with 5% of freeze-drying mulberry powder and the group added with 7% of hot-air drying mulberry powder were the highest.

This study, observing each respectively packaged Kongdduk during 12-day storing period and comparing it with unpackaged Kongdduk, through a cross-sectional view of its fiber and temperament, through a sensory evaluation rheometer measurement of rheological change depending on storing period and packaging type and through the organic acid content, micro-organic change, and retrogressive process. The results are as follows: 1. Kongdduk made of bean oil shows better chewiness, cohesiveness, and moistness than Kongdduk made of bean flour while Kongdduk made of bean flour shows better rheological properties as to roasted nutty taste or roasted nutty order. 2. The test of the cutted loaves of Kongdduk shows that adding oil of proper proportion to the dough of steamed rice cake in accordance with the amount of rice flour has a good influence on rheological properties of softness. 3. Rice cakes were prepared by addition of yellow soybean flour or peanut flour and packaged with CMP or VP, and their physical characteristics were monitored by sensory evaluation and mechanical measurement while storing for 6 days. For VP samples, yellow soybean rice cake showed little changes in cohesiveness, moistness and chewiness for 6 days of storage, while pure rice cake and peanut rice cake showed an increase in strength and hardness from the 4th day of storage. In case of CMP, yellow soybean rice cake hardly showed a difference in cohesiveness, moistness and chewiness for 6 days, while pure rice cake and peanut rice cake showed a significant difference from the 4th day in sensory evaluation. 4. For rheometer measurement, yellow soybean rice cake with CMP or VP showed little changes in strength or hardness for 6 days, while peanut rice cake and pure rice cake showed a drastic decrease in cohesiveness, from the End day and adhesiveness from the 4th day of storage. As there was no remarkable difference or deterioration for 6 days of storage in yellow soybean rice cake between CMP and VP, the ingredients of rice cakeappeared to be more important than the type of packaging in terms of quality deterioration of rice cake. 5. As the storing period passed by, organic acid is detected less at CMP-packaged Knngdduk than at wrapped. and its increasing speed proves to be slower as well. 6. The one wrapped with plyethylene film began to get moldy from pure rice cake or Kongdduk (rice cake mixed with yellow soybean or peanut) after 6 days, and more and more modly after 9 daysor after 12 days, but the CMP-packaged ones didn't get modly until 12 days or more. 7. CMP-packaged Kongdduk showed higher enthalpy of retrogradation than PE-wrapped one. As storing Period Passed by, Kongdduk,s enthalpy grew high. That is to say, it shows that Kongdduk got retrograded.

Effects of commercial and lab-generated gellan gums on the textural properties, structure, and aging of wheat and maize starch gels were investigated using a rapid visco-analyzer (RVA), rheometer, scanning electron microscope (SEM), and X-ray diffractometer. Gellan and guar gums increased the peak and final viscosities, but xanthan gum and gum arabic reduced them. The maize starch had higher breakdown viscosity than the wheat starch, regardless of the type of gum. The hardness of all starch gels increased during storage, but their cohesiveness and springiness decreased. The degree of the gel hardness showed higher in maize starch than in wheat starch and the effect of gum addition had a difference with gum type. The wheat starch-guar and -gellan gum mixed gels showed higher elasticity and cohesiveness after storage. The starch-gellan gum mixed gels had dense and stable network structures, and were well maintained even after 7 days of storage. Most of the gums had anti-aging effect on X-ray diffraction pattern of starch gels.

This study was carried out to investigate the quality characteristics of yellow layer cake mulberry powder. After making yellow layer cake with mulberry powder, water activity, crumb texture, crumb color, and sensory tests were investigated. After 1 day of storage, Aw of control with weak flour did not show any significant difference, whereas those with 1, 3. 5% mulberry powder showed a significant decrease in Aw. During storage, the Aw values of yellow layer cakes containing mulberry powder were consistent. Hardness, springiness, cohesiveness, and gumminess of the yellow layer cakes containing mulberry powder all decreased compared to those of control. Hardness, springiness, cohesiveness, and gumminess all increased with storage time. Further a higher percentage of mulberry powder was associated with a lower L value, but higher a value. b values were lower in the 1% and 3% mulberry powders, but 5% showed a slightly higher b value. An increase in storage time was associated with decreased L and b values and increased a value. The micrographs of yellow layer cakes with mulberry powder showed a slightly coarser porosity than that of controls. The results of the sensory test showed that the over-all acceptability of 1% mulberry powder cake was the best.

Response surface methodology (RSM) was performed in order to determine the optimal mixing conditions of different amounts of egg and sugar for the preparation of soybean pudding. The experiments were designed according to a central composite design by designating whole egg and sugar content as independent variables. Meanwhile, sweetness, Commission Internationale de I'Eclairage (CIE) color parameters (L*, a* and b* values), hardness, cohesiveness, springiness, and gumminess were response variables. Overall optimization, conducted by overlaying the contour plots under investigation, was able to determine the optimal range of dependent variables within which the 14 responses were simultaneously optimized. The point chosen as a representative of this optimal region corresponded to 50.00 g of whole egg and 31.66 g of sugar. Under these conditions, the model predicted L* value=80.03, a* value=-5.44, b* value=27.86, sweetness=21.23 ($^{\circ}Brix$), hardness=$25.45{\times}10^5$ (dyne/$cm^2$), cohesiveness=67.90 (%), springiness=46.20 (%), and gumminess=12.71 (g).

Purpose: To improve the cooking quality of brown rice, newly inbred soft rice cultivars were investigated. Methods: The physicochemical properties of brown rice flour and water absorption patterns and cooking characteristics of brown rice grain were compared to Ilmi white and brown rice. Results: General composition and total dietary fiber contents of five rices were significantly different with higher ash, protein, and total dietary fiber contents in soft brown rice than white rice. The hardness of raw rice grain was higher in Ilmi brown rice than in soft brown rice. The water absorption increased rapidly in 30 min of white rice and in 4-6 h of brown rices. The apparent amylose content of soft brown rice was lower than that of Ilmi rice. The initial pasting temperature and all viscosities were significantly different, but the trend was not similar. The textural properties of hardness and roughness were higher, but adhesiveness, cohesiveness, and stickiness were lower in Ilmi brown rice than white and soft brown rices. In sensory preference test, not only textural properties, hardness, adhesiveness, cohesiveness, stickiness, and roughness, but also color, glossiness, and roasted flavor were higher in soft brown rices. Especially soft brown rice B showed the best cooking quality among all rices. Conclusion: The results of the study suggested that soft brown rice is developed for cooking with high nutritional and functional quality.
