The purpose of this study was to provide the descriptive sensory profiles for cooked rice by various rice cookers, losing descriptive analysis. The rice samples cooked in an electric pressure cooker, and in pressure cooker B, were separated by roasted flavor, sweetness, burnt flavor, cooked rice flavor, moistness, cohesiveness, and chewiness using PCA. The rice cooked in pressure cooker A was harder and rougher, and showed grain wholesomeness, but it still had a cooked and burnt flavor. The rice cooked in a stone cooker and an electric rice cooker was less hard, and showed less grain wholesomeness, but it had a burnt, cooked rice, and less raw rice type of flavor. Finally, the RTE (ready-to-eat) rice showed more grain wholesomeness, and had more raw rice and sour flavor.

The qualities of rice cooked on heat plate, induction heat and heat plate with pressure, were investigated. The weight, volume, water soluble index (WSI), hydration by SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope), and gelatinization by DSC (Differential Scanning Calorimetry), as well as the consumer acceptability of cooked rice were analyzed. The weight, volume and WSI of rice cooked on heat plate with pressure were higher than those of rice cooked on heat plate and induction heat. The rice cooked on heat plate with pressure also showed higher degree of hydration and gelatinization, and lower degree of enthalpy of gelatinization than the rice cooked on heat plate and induction heat for 5~15 min. The consumer acceptability revealed that the odor, appearance, taste, texture and overall acceptance of rice cooked on induction heat were better than those of rice cooked on heat plate and heat plate with pressure. During storage in a cooker for 0~12 h, there was a decrease in the consumer acceptability of cooked rice. Overall results indicate that the qualities of rice cooked on induction heat and heat plate with pressure were higher than those of rice cooked on heat plate.

Changes in quality of cooked rice after microwave reheating were evaluated. Ceramic coated microwave oven reduced a reheating time(1 min). Storage temperature, storage time and microwave reheating did not affect the color value of cooked rice after microwave reheating. Hardness of cooked rice after microwave reheating decreased in frozen storage treatment. Photomicrographs of cross-section of cooked rice after microwave reheating showed restoration of starch. Effect of storage temperature and time were not significant in appearance, aroma, taste and texture of cooked rice after microwave reheating for sensory evaluation test.

Purpose: This study analyzed and compared the physico-chemical and affective properties between mackerels cooked by an electric pan and under superheated steam. Methods: Mackerel were cooked by an electric pan ($95^{\circ}C$) for 10 min and mackerel cooked under superheated steam ($250^{\circ}C$) for 5 min to be internal temperatures of $75{\pm}5^{\circ}C$ and tests to measure proximate composition, color values, texture profiles, microorganism counts and sensory acceptance were performed. Results: The moisture contents were 60.30% and 73.81% in mackerels cooked by electric pan and under superheated steam, respectively. The rate of weight loss in mackerel cooked by electric pan was 39%, whereas it was 29% in mackerel cooked under superheated steam. Mackerel cooked under superheated steam exhibited more yellowness, higher springiness, cohesiveness, gumminess, chewiness, and resilience with more acceptable preferences (appearance, odor, taste, and texture) compared to the mackerel cooked by electric pan. Conclusion: The application of superheated steam technology to fish products could reduce the cooking time and nutritional loss. Also, it could produce highly preferred fish products compared to that prepared by conventional electric pan.

The changes of resistant starch (RS) contents of cooked rice with soybean and coconut oils under different storage conditions were investigated and RS contents were compared between the rice and cooker types. The japonica (Hopyeong) and the indica (Thailand) type rice were cooked (washed rice: water = 100: 130) using an electric cooker and a saucepan. The coconut oil and soybean oil (3%, based on rice, w/w) were added into cooking water before heating. The RS contents of freeze-dried cooked rice powders (newly-cooked rice, stored for 12 h in the refrigerator, microwave heating after storage for 12 h in the refrigerator) were measured by the AOAC method. The RS contents of cooked rice using a saucepan were higher than those using an electric cooker. The indica type cooked rice had a higher RS content than the japonica type cooked rice, regardless of storage conditions. However, addition of oil before cooking rice resulted in increased RS content on storage in the refrigerator. The highest RS content of the cooked indica type rice with soybean oil ($5.89{\pm}0.22%$) that was stored for 12 h in the refrigerator was analyzed. The results suggested that the cooked rice formed retrograded (RS3) and amylose-lipid complex (RS5) type RS; furthermore, the RS content is affected by storage conditions, rice, cooker and oil types.

The Physicochemical, sensory and cooking properties of functionally fortified rice with dietary fiber and chitosan were compared with regular rice when the rices were cooked with pressure and electric cookers. Moisture content of functional rice before cooking was 11.11%, which was lower than 13.72% in regular rice. Accordingly, moisture contents of functional rice samples cooked both with pressure and electric cookers were lower than those of regular rice. L value showing the degree of lightness of cooked rice was significantly higher in rice samples cooked with pressure cookers. The ${\alpha}$ value, the degree of redness and the b value, the degree of yellowness, were the highest in the functional rice cooked with an electric rice cookers. Textural measurement of hardness using a rheometer showed the highest value in functional rice cooked with a pressure cooker. The degree of gelatinization measured using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) before cooking showed higher onset gelatinization temperature ($T_0$) and peak gelatinization temperature ($T_p$) in functional rice compared with those in regular rice. The gelatinization enthalpy (${\Delta}H$) of functional rice was lower than that of regular rice, showing that functional foe had lower gelatinization energy compared with regular rice. When the samples were stored in a refrigerator for one week, the DSC showed faster retrogradation degrees in samples cooked with electric rice cooker, having significantly higher enthalpies of regular and functional rice cooked with electric cooked compared to those cooked with pressure cookers. The functional rice samples cooked with pressure cooker had higher consumer acceptance test values compared to those cooked with electric cookers.

Changes in retrogradation degree of nonwaxy milled rice cooked at different pressure and stored in electric rice cooker at $74^{\circ}C$ were investigated. The moisture contents of nonwaxy milled rice cooked at $1.0{\sim}1.9\;atm\;and\;1.2{\sim}1.5$ water/rice ratio were $59.9{\sim}64.3%$. When nonwaxy milled rice was cooked at high pressure, X-ray diffraction patterns of cooked rice exhibited the V-type having nearly no crystallinity. Retrogradation peak of cooked rice from DSC thermogram was observed in the temperature range of $41.9{\sim}62.4^{\circ}C$ and was not appeared in cooked rice above 1.5 atm. During storage at cooker for 24 hr, retrogradation enthalpy of cooked rice was increased and retrogradation peak was not appeared above 1.7 atm. In cooking and storage of cooked rice, retrogradation degree measured by ${\alpha}-amylase-iodine$ method in high pressure gelatinized samples was lower than that in low pressure gelatinized ones.

This study was conducted to investigate performance of methods for cooking and thawing frozen cooked rice to retard retro-gradation of cooked rice. For this research, That was executed rice's physicochemical and sensory characteristics test through the way of boiling rice or thawing, and found out best way for retro-gradation and taste. This study showed the rice cooked by pressure rice pot has less dehydration during freezing and thawing, and thawed rice by micro wave has less dehydration. Repetition of freezing and thawing resulted increasing of hardness and chewiness, and decreasing of adhesiveness and cohesiveness. The rice cooked by convotherm oven or pressure rice pot has less increased hardness while freezing and thawing. Adhesiveness was superior when rice was cooked by pressure rice pot. The rice thawed by microwave had more hardness than thawed in room temperature.

The amount of added water for rice cooking was determined by extrusion test and sensory evaluation of cooked rice. The extrusion force was positively correlated with hardness and negatively correlated with moisture content and wetness of cooked rice. The extrusion force and moisture content of cooked rice were 57.9 kg and 62.3% respectively at the 'medium' wetness (neither too hard and dry nor too soft and watery) of cooked rice. The optimum water to rice ratio for the cooked rice haying 'medium' wetness was 1.46.
