  • This study aims to investigate the quality characteristics of breads with the addition of sweet pumpkin powder. Farinogram showed that the absorption rate of the dough decreased, the development time and stability became shortened, and the degree of attenuation tended to be grown along with increasing the amount of pumpkin powder. From the amylogram, it was found that the gelatinization starting temperature and the maximum viscosity of pumpkin powder added dough seemed to be decreased as the amount of pumpkin powder was increased. Extensogram showed that there was a decrease in the degree of extension of the dough added with increasing the amount of pumpkin powder, while an increase in the degree of resistance and resistance/extensibility. The lightness (L value) and redness (a value) of bread was found to be decreased with increasing the amount of pumpkin powder, while the yellowness (b value) increased. In terms of the dough texture, for which the hardness, cohesiveness and gumminess of the dough were measured, there were no significant differences between groups, while the dough added with 8.0% pumpkin powder showed a significant decrease in the elasticity. The results of sensory evaluation showed that the highest score of color (p<0.05) and taste (p<0.05) were obtained from the bread added with 6.0% and 8.0% pumpkin powder, while the highest score of texture in control and 3.0% pumpkin bread. In addition, the highest score of flavor (p<0.05) and overall acceptance (p<0.05) were observed in bread added with 6.0% pumpkin powder. Upon the results of this study, it was assumed that the development of food products using pumpkin are prospective in response to health-oriented consumers.

  • This study looks into the relationship between mother's nutrition knowledge and the actual situation of snacks consumption by mothers living in Daegu and Gyeongbuk. The data were analyzed by statistical methods such as frequency, percentage, Chi-square, ANOVA and Duncan with the SPSS Windows 19.0 program. Regarding level of education, most of the subjects in the 'High' and 'Medium' Groups were university graduates, whereas most of those in the 'Low' Group were college graduates. Most of the subjects ate used processed snacks, produced snacks, or cooked snacks themselves, and most added fruits, followed by milk products and confectionery as snacks. Most of the subjects were satisfied with their experiences of purchasing snacks for children. In selecting the snacks, most of them attached importance to 'balanced nutrition', followed by 'food additives', 'allergy', and 'sanitation.' These results show that nutrition education is necessary for choosing correct and good quality snacks for children.

  • In order to examine the pre-industrial application product quality characteristics of yanggang (a type of traditional Korean confectionery) with varying levels of Palatinose, this study conducted multiple preliminary experiments. By applying different amounts of Palatinose (1%, 2%, 3%, 4%) and adhering to a recipe suitable for commercial products, the yanggang was produced under controlled manufacturing conditions. While the moisture content of the manufactured yanggang adhered to the established manufacturing standard, showing minimal variations, there were statistically significant differences observed with an increase in the Palatinose proportion, exhibiting a trend akin to findings from other yanggang studies. Similarly, there were slight but statistically significant differences observed in soluble solids content and pH, though these differences were not found to have a significant impact. The addition of Palatinose did not induce changes in the elasticity (springiness) and firmness (gumminess) of the yanggang, nor in its chewiness, as the Palatinose content increased. Despite a reduction in calorie content, the addition of Palatinose did not influence the appearance and taste of the yanggang.

  • This study was conducted to investigate the effect of baking on the physicochemical and sensory properties of white pan bread with red wine (RW). RW was substituted for water at four levels (0, 19, 38 and 63%). For bread crumb color, lightness decreased with increasing levels of RW, whereas redness and yellowness increased (p<0.05), in proportion to RW levels. Compared to control bread, specific volume of breads added with RW was decreased. The degree of dough raising power decreased significantly depending on the amounts of RW. The hardness of control bread was $87.35g/cm^2$ while the hardness of breads with RW ranged from 85.37 to $94.19g/cm^2$. Hardness, cohesiveness, springiness and gumminess of breads added with RW showed higher scores than the control group. In the sensory evaluation, the highest flavor and taste preference scores were observed in bread containing 38% RW, whereas the lowest score was observed in bread with 63% RW. Accordingly, the quality of bread can be improved by addition of 38% RW substituted for water.

  • This work was to apply the microwave energy to HTST pasteurization of milk in order to prevent undesirable quality changes due to the fouling and overheating on the surface of heat exchanger. A continuous tubulartype microwave pasteurization system was designed using a domestic microwave oven(800w and 2,450MHz). Raw milk was HTST pasteurized$(at\;72^{circ}C\;for\;15\;sec)$ by three methods; by heating in a stainless steel tube immersed in a hot water bath(MP0), by heating in a microwave cavity to a desired temperature and then holding in a hot water bath(MP1) and by both heating and holding in a microwave cavity(MP2). The microbial quality based on the total plate count and Psychotrophic bacterial count was in the order MP0, MP2 and MP1 ; however, the quality difference was not significant(p<0.05) when the initial microbial numbers were involved in the statistical analysis. In addition, the three samples pasteurized by different methods showed the similar microbial quality based on the coliform count and phosphatase activity. The similar microbial quality of the three samples supports the potential use of microwave energy for the pasteurization of milk and other fluid food products.

  • In order to improve the storage stability of steamed bread, fermented pine needle extract syrup potentially with several functional properties was added in manufacturing the products at levels of 8.3, 11 and 18% based on Brix degree of the dough. The manufactured bread was stored at ambient conditions and measured for quality attributes. Dough added with the fermented pine needle extract syrup maintained its pH and water activity at levels of $5.45{\sim}5.90\;and\;0.94{\sim}0.96$, which are normally suitable for yeast fermentation and for appropriate dough hardness. Addition of the extract syrup increased the bread volume by more than 20%. The bread with higher content of the pine needle extract syrup showed slower increase of bread hardness during storage, suggesting retardation of bread retrogradation. The addition of the pine needle extract syrup in bread dough also inhibited growth of the aerobic bacteria and molds on the bread surface (by $0.8{\sim}24$ in log (CFU/g) at 4 day storage). Use of higher than 11% concentration presented initially a strong fine needle flavor to the bread, which disappeared soon after 2 days. Generally addition of the pine needle extract syrup did not give negative effects on the bread quality including sensory quality. Therefore, the addition of the needle extract syrup could contribute to improving the storage stability and extending the shelf life of the bread.

  • This study was carried out to investigate the quality characteristics of white bread made with flour of wheat cultured with Pleurotus ostreatus(POW). The property of the wheat used for the solid-state cultivation of the Pleurotus ostreatus was examined. The hydration time of wheat with cold water was 10 hours, with a final moisture content of 39%, which was much less than the optimum moisture content for mycelial growth. However, hot water soaking reduced the required hydration time of the wheat, and elevated the moisture content to 65% within 90~120 min. The POW was composed of 7.2% moisture, 15.4% protein, 1.1% fat, 1.7% ash and 2.9% fiber. The POW was substituted for wheat flour in white bread recipes at weight percentages of 0%, 2.5%, 5%, 7.5% and 10%. The weight, volume and fermentation of the dough tended to decrease with increasing POW content. The color of the bread crust and crumb darkened with increasing POW content. A sensory evaluation showed a high preference for the white bread made with 5% POW, indicating that the addition of 5% POW to flour for bread dough could improve the quality characteristics of white bread. These study results also provide useful information for using the flour of wheat cultured with Pleurotus ostreatus as an ingredient source for food processing.

  • To reproduce the brewing process of Hongkuk-ju and to identify the functional properties of it, Hongkuk-ju was brewed using different additions of Hongkuk (100%, 90%, 70%, 50%) and Nuruk (0%, 10%, 30%, 50%). The quality elements, including pH, total acidity, reducing sugar content, alcohol content and pigments (yellow, red, monacolin K and citrinin), were measured. The pH values of Hongkuk-ju showed a slight difference (pH 4.08~4.58) right after the $1^{st}$ stage mash; further, the pH on all groups (H1, H2, H3 and H4) in the terminal of the $2^{nd}$ stage mash (9 days in fermentation) were similar, ranging approximately at pH 3.70. The total acidity change did not show a difference directly the $1^{st}$ stage mash (nearby 0.2 %); however, it began to show a slight difference at the terminal of the $2^{nd}$ stage mash between the range of 0.69~0.76%. The residual reducing sugar of the content was decreased with the increased Nuruk content. The alcohol concentrations of the treatment brew with Nuruk ranging from 12.3% to 13.7% were higher than Hongkuk on its own. The yellow and red pigment contents of Hongkuk-ju ranged from 7.2~8.8 O.D. units (yellow pigment) and from 4.4~5.1 O.D. units (red pigment). The production of monacolin K and citrinin was the highest (9.48 mg/kg and 10.14 mg/kg) when the treatment solely brewed Hongkuk. The concentration of Nuruk and the preparation of the seed mash from it were critical factors compared to the treatment of rice in brewing Hongkuk-ju.

  • The shock of melamine-contained food has been known with the incident of hospitalization or death of infants at the age of 11-month old in China. The purpose of this study was to examine consumers' risk perception, attitude and purchase behavior of melamine-contained food which recently came to the fore as a social issue, focusing on the relationship between consumers' attitude and purchase behavior based on physical risk, social risk, psychological risk, financial risk, consumers' attitude and purchase behavior. Study findings are as follows. First, the four factors of risk perception of melamine-contained food were significantly different by consumers. Consumers regarded social risk as most significant and it was followed by financial risk and psychological risk. And they regarded physical risk as most insignificant. Second, as for the difference of risk perception by demographic features, such factors as gender, age, marital status and schooling had no statistically significant influence. Third, the potential risk of melamine-contained food had a negative influence upon consumers' attitude and purchase behavior. In addition, consumers' attitude and purchase behavior were decided by perceived risks. This finding implies that consumers' attitude can accompany with negative or positive behavior and consumers' behavior can be related to social, financial and physical risks. Because the risk perception of melamine-contained food can cause consumers' distrust about all kinds of food in general, domestic manufacturers of milk product-contained confectionery and food can be harmed. In order to overcome this problem and make consumers purchase all the milk products and milk-contained food without fear, governmental agencies must reestablish systems with which the safety of imported raw materials and its processing can be insured and manufactures must improve the quality of products in a diverse and discriminative manner. This study seems to be meaningful in that it examined consumers' risk perception of melamine-contained food, a current social issue, and then looked into the influence of risk perception upon consumers" attitude and behavior, thus presenting the strategy of reestablishing the system of relationship between consumers and business entities in a desirable manner.
