A barley (20-30%)-wheat (80-70%) flour gave generally acceptable noodle-making characteristics, in which naked barley flour showed somewhat better results than covered barley flour. And also for over 40% barley flour in the barley-wheat flour, the addition of xanthan gum improved the noodle-making characteristics. A naked barley-defatted soy flour could make dried noodles with only high NSI (Nitrogen Solubility Index) defatted soy flour, however this mixture was not considered to be feasible for noodle-making. In cooking characteristics of barley-wheat flour noodles, naked barley flour was more acceptable than covered barley flour and xanthan gum influenced the water absorption and volume expansion of noodles during cooking. The firmness, cohesiveness and gumminess in cooked noodles made of the barley-wheat flour increased and then decreased as the amounts of barley increased. The mixing of defatted soy flour (high NSI) to naked barley flour increased the firmness and gumminess of cooked noodles.

Rice noodles are popular worldwide; however, no standard procedure is available for screening the potential for rice flour to make good quality noodles. This study reports two standard laboratory-scale procedures for preparing flat (sheet type) and extruded noodles. Eight rice cultivars were examined and the cooking loss and tensile strength of cooked noodles were determined. It was relatively easy to control the amount of water added to extruded noodles, whereas flat noodles were very sensitive to the amount of water used. Sheet formation was determined based on the amount of moisture content during preparation, and the Chenmaai cultivar was found to be most appropriate for both noodles making procedures and cooking and textural properties. Finally, good noodle making cultivar such as Chenmaai was less likely to be affected by the milling method.

End-use properties of 26 Korean wheat cultivars (KWC) were evaluated to assess consumer satisfaction with 6 imported wheat and 5 commercial wheat flours. In end-use quality testing of cooked noodles, Absorption of noodle dough sheet of ASW (Australian standard white) was similar to Anbaek, Eunpa, Gobun, Hanbaek, Jeokjoong, Jonong, Namhae, and Sukang. Thickness of noodle dough sheet of KWC was showed thin difference. In imported wheat and commercial flour, Commercial flour for baking cookie (Com5) with lower protein flour was lower than those flours. In lightness of prepared noodle dough sheet, Lightness value ($L^*$) of KWC was lower than those of Commercial flour for making white salted noodle (Com1), commercial flour for making for yellow alkaline noodle (Com2), and commercial flour for multi-purpose (Com4). Lightness value ($L^*$) showed significantly negative correlations with particle size of flour, ash, damaged starch, and protein content. Hardness of cooked noodles positively correlated with protein content. In texture of cooked noodles, Hardness of Com1 was similar to that of Alchan, Dahong, Jeokjoon, and Sukang. Also, hardness of Com2 was similar to that of Gobun, Jokyung, Jonong, Keumkang, and Namhae. In end-use quality of bread, bread loaf volume of commercial flour for making bread (Com3) was similar to Alchan, Jokyung, Keumkang, and Namhae but firmness was low. Bread volume showed better relationships with higher SDS-sedimentation volume, longer mixing time of mixograph, higher height of dough during development. Firmness of crumb was negatively correlated with bread volume. Diameter of cookie showed significantly negative correlations with particle size of flour, damaged starch, and protein content. Also, Top gain score became higher as the increase diameter of cookie. In end-use quality testing of cooked cookie, Cookie diameter of Com5 was similar to that of Dahong, Geuru, Olgeuru, Tapdong, and Uri but top grain was low.

In order to develop low calorie noodles, flours of Jerusalem artichoke and strong wheat were mixed with ratios of 25 : 75, 30 : 70 and 35 : 65. The substitution of wheat flour with Jerusalem artichoke powder up to 25% showed good formation of noodle stripes similar to that of wheat flour alone. The formation was effectively improved by addition of $0.5{\sim}1.0%$ solution alginate, 1.0% Fremol or mixure of 0.5% ${\alpha}-Polygel$, 0.5% Alcalin and 1.5% fremol for $25{\sim}30%$ substitution with Jerusalem articoke powder. Also addition of sodium alginate to the 30% substitution with Jerusalem artichoke powder showed the high Hunter value of Lightness and good cooking quality of noodle, relatively close to those of noodle of wheat flour alone. The dough prepared with mixed flours showed increase in cohesiveness and resilience and decrease in hardness and adhesiveness, compared to those of wheat flour. The addition of sodium alginate was very effective for increase in adhesiveness and cohesiveness. The cohesiveness of cooked noodles was increased with substitution with Jerusalem artichoke powder while sodium alginate influenced little. There is no significant difference of taste, odor, color and texture of cooked noodles between wheat flour alone and composite flours with $25{\sim}30%$ of Jerusalem artichoke and texture modifying agents. The results suggested that good quality noodles could be produced using Jerusalem artichoke powder.

To address the limitations of manufacturing noodle products using rice, brown rice noodles were created by the fermentation of brown rice containing several nutrients and the quality of these noodles were evaluated. White rice noodles, fermented white rice noodles, brown rice noodles, and fermented brown rice noodles were developed using white rice and brown rice, respectively. We found that the content of crude proteins present in the noodles during the fermentation process increased and the content of crude fat and carbohydrates in the noodles was reduced. In addition, the water content of brown rice noodles was twofold higher than that of white rice, although under fermentation conditions, the water content of brown rice noodles decreased slightly. A slight change of chromaticity was observed during the fermentation process. In cooking, the weight and volume of the noodles increased, with the change being lowest in noodles based on white rice. White rice-based noodles exhibited significantly higher turbidity in the cooked noodle soup, while other noodle products showed relatively constant turbidity. Most of the products showed a decreased texture, becoming soft with cooking; however, the elasticity of the cooked products increased. Our results suggest that the disadvantages of producing rice noodles can be overcome by the development of fermented brown rice noodles containing a variety of nutritional components. This would potentially develop a market for rice-based manufactured foods that appeal to modern preferences.

A study was conducted to investigate the effects of rice bran dietary fiber on wheat flour rheology and wet noodle quality. More than 99% of rice bran dietary fiber contained smaller particle size than $250\;{\mu}m$. The initial pasting temperature, peak and final viscosities in amylograph, and the water absorption and dough stability in farinograph increased with the increase of rice bran dietary fiber concentration. The lightness values decreased with the increase of rice bran dietary fiber concentration in raw noodles as well as cooked noodles. The addition of rice bran dietary fiber was not effective on the cooked weight and volume of cooked noodles. However, the cooking loss of cooked noodles was the highest in control, and increased with the increase of rice bran dietary fiber concentration. Most of texture parameters (hardness, adhesiveness, gumminess and chewiness) of cooked noodles increased, but the cohesiveness decreased with the increase of rice bran dietary fiber concentration. There were no significant differences in appearance, taste and acceptability of cooked noodles between control and noodles containing 3% and 6% rice bran dietary fiber.

Effect of Rubus coreanum Miquel and Opuntia ficus-indica var. saboten in combination with chicken breast and wheat gluten on functional properties and physicochemical characteristics during processing of cooked noodles were investigated. These studies were carried out to investigate functional properties of Rubus coreanum Miquel and Opuntia ficus-indica var. saboten by the antioxidant ability. Antioxidant activities were evaluated by electron donating, xanthine oxidase inhibition rate and contents of total polyphenols. Overall, the antioxidant activities of hot water extracts were a little higher than those of ethanol extracts. Also, the antioxidant abilities at the concentration of 1,000 ppm in hot water extracts were higher than those of ethanol extracts by the determination of total polyphenol content and DPPH, which showed 150.25 mg% in extracts of Rubus coreanum Miquel and showed 69.36% in extracts of Opuntia ficus-indica var. saboten. The effects on processing characteristics of cooked noodles were investigated in combination with transglutaminase (TGase), plant extracts, wheat gluten and chicken breast. Cooking time was very short as 340 second in CB (cooked breast), compared to other treatments. In contrast, NCB (non cooked breast) took a longer time as 779 second. Also, CB was higher than NCB, which showed 146.3% in CB and 61.5% in NCB in water absorption ratio during cooking of noodles. Tubidity of soup was the lowest at 0.240 in NCBT (non cooked breast transglutaminase), which means the lowest loss of solid in noodle during cooking. In case of treatment of TGase, overall texture properties were higher than other samples in hardness, cohesivness, springness and gumminess. In sensory evaluations, cooked noodles treated with TGase showed a higher percentage of overall acceptability than other treatments.

This study was conducted to investigate the quality characteristics of waxy corn noodles (WCN) made with different defatted soybean powder (DFP). The WCN was evaluated for their cooking properties (weight, water absorption, volume, and turbidity), color values, texture characteristics, and sensory characteristics. The weight, water absorption, and volume of cooked WCN increased according to DFP content, whereas they significantly decreased relative to those of control noodles. The turbidity of cooked WCN decreased with increasing DFP content. The L-value of cooked WCN decreased relative to that of control noodle, whereas a- and b-values increased. The hardness, adhesiveness, springiness, and cohesiveness of cooked WCN increased with increasing DFP content, whereas chewiness and gumminess decreased. The texture characteristics of cooked WCN decreased compared to control noodles except for adhesiveness. Sensory evaluation indicated that the appearance, flavor, and overall acceptance of cooked WCN were better than those of control noodles. Overall, DFP can be used as an effective ingredient to improve the quality and sensory characteristics of WCN.

We conducted this study to investigate the amount of RS and cooking characteristics of the commercial extrusion-cooked noodles. Ten kinds of noodles were selected and grouped according to the storage conditions; dry noodles (3), refrigerated noodles (2), freeze noodles (4), and dry noodle made from wheat flour as a control (not extrusion-cooked). The total starch of commercial noodles ranged from 62.50% to 84.13%, Refrigerated Naengmyeon and dry Dangmyun had high proportions of total starch (respectively 84.13% and 80.13%, respectively). The amounts of apparent amylose ranged from 25.01% to 42.93% and RS ranged from 0.61% to 5.99%. A high proportion of the total starch was rendered digestible by extrusion cooking, and a small amount of RS remained in the samples. Dry Dangmyun had the highest percentages of RS (5.99%), followed by refrigerated Naengmyeon C (2.41%) and dry Jjolmyeon (1.94%), and those of the other noodles were lower than that of the control (1.86%). Cooking properties and texture measurements were evaluated. Cooking loss and turbidity of cooking water were highest in dry Jjolmyeon and dry Naengmyeon. There was little cooking loss in dry Dangmyun and freeze rice noodles. In particular, dry Dangmyun and refrigerated Naengmyeon C containing high amounts of RS and amylose had relatively high measurements of hardness and tensile strength.
