Effects of addition of various additives, sucrose fatty acid ester 1170 (SE), carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and soy bean oil (SO) on textural characteristics for untreated and defatted corn and mung bean starch gels stored at room temperature for 24 hrs and 72 hrs were studied. In sensory and instrumental characteristics of starch gels with additives (0.5% for starch basis), the acceptability was highly correlated with cohesiveness and bend property of starch gels stored 24 hrs and springiness, cohesiveness, color, smoothness, bend property, hardness and clarity of starch gels stored 72 hrs. Regardless of adding additives, textural characteristics of defatted corn starch gels showed somewhat higher values than that of com starch gels. The acceptability of starch gels with additives was somewhat lowered in all the cases, which showed highly correlated in cohesiveness for 24 hrs and springiness for 72 hrs. Instrumental characteristics were similar to those of sensory evaluation, which showed no significant difference with additives.

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.

Effects of added green tea powder and Angelica keiskei powder on the quality characteristics of Yukwa were examined for the purpose of improving functioanality and variety of Yukwa, and usage of green tea Powder and Angelica keiskei. Dietary fiber contents of green tea powder were 5.2% soluble dietary fiber, 22% insoluble dietary fiber, while Angelica keiskei contained 28.9% soluble dietary fiber, 29.6% insoluble dietary fiber. Expansion rate of yukwa was 3,675% for control and the rates were slightly decreased as the addition level increased. Although Yukwas added 6% green tea and angelica keiskei powder were harder than the others when determined by rheometer, sensory evaluation results showed that hardness and mouthfeel were soft without any significant difference among the control and experimental samples. And internal structure of 4 and 6% green tea powder and those added angelica keiskei at three levels were evaluated by sensory panel as moderately compact. Overall acceptability of yukwa added 2% green tea Powder was the best of all while yukwas added angelica keiskei at three levels were evaluated as good. The results of peroxide value and TBA value showed that green tea powder had stronger antioxidative property than angelica keiskei. In conclusion addition of green tea powder by 2% level and angelica keiskei powder up to 4% would give us beneficial effects in the aspects of functionality and storage life of yukwa without any detrimental effects on the quality characteristics of it.

The use of gums in processed foods manufactured in Korea was investigated in this study. The information about gums added to each food was collected from the ingredient claimed on the food packaging. A total of 272 food items were found to use gums as a thickener, stabilizer, and/or emulsifier. Among them, carrageenan was the most frequently found in 110 items (40%), followed by xanthan gum in 87 items (32%), guar gum in 67 items (25%), arabic gum in 50 items (18%), and gellan gum in 28 items (10%). Application of more than two different gums to food items was also observed, presumably based on the synergistic interaction between gums for a specific physical property. Of nine food categories classified by the Korea Food Code, gums were used most frequently in beverages, noodles, and meat products. Foods for children which include confectioneries, beverages, and chocolates were found to frequently use arabic gum, carrageenan, xanthan gum, guar gum, or gellan gum. These results indicate that gums have been widely using in a variety of Korean processed foods in order to improve their physical properties. Considering potential health concern of some gums such as carrageenan, further study to estimate daily intake of gum is needed.

This study investigated both the chemical and antioxidative characteristics of wheat flour added with 10, 20 and 30% immature chalssalbori flour; further, the quality characteristics of bread dough during yeast fermentation were assessed. As the addition rate of chalssalbori flour into wheat flour increased, the DPPH radical scavenging capacity, water absorption index, water solubility index and viscosity were all increased. Moreover, the bread dough with an increased addition rate of chalssalbori flour demonstrated an increased pH, reduced fermentative expansion power and a darker yellowish color. The bread dough added with chalssalbori flour after mixing showed higher hardness, gumminess and adhesiveness, but lower cohesiveness and springiness compared to the control; however, these texture characteristics were changed during fermentation. In the present study, the mixed flour with 10% immature chalssalbori flour conveyed similar pasting characteristics to those of wheat flour; moreover, its bread dough showed higher springiness and fermentative expansion power. Furthermore, a delay effect of starch retrogradation can be expected compared to the control.

This study was carried out in order to evaluate the effects of paprika powder on bread quality. Breads were prepared with the addition of 0%, 2.5%, 5.0%, 7.5% and 10.0% of paprika powder based on wheat flour. The weight of breads with paprika powder ranged from 526.5~537.3 g; that of the control was 525.0 g. The volume of the breads prepared by adding paprika powder was 1946.1~2114.3 mL, whereas that of the control was 2144.4 mL. The height, specific volume and baking loss rate of breads with added paprika powder decreased with the addition of paprika powder. The hardness, springiness, cohesiveness and chewiness increased with the addition of paprika powder. The Hunter L values of breads decreased, whereas a and b values increased. The sensory quality of the paprika powder breads tested by color, moistness and chewiness was better than that of the control. In particular, the overall acceptability of the bread with the addition of 5.0% paprika powder had the best quality.

The purpose of this study was to determine the storage characteristics of Makphyun, a kind of rice cake, containing peach and Makgeolli. The effect of peach paste (0, 5, 10 or 20%) on the storage qualities of Makphyun was evaluated during storage at $20{\pm}2^{\circ}C$ for 3 days. As the amount of peach paste increased, the loss of water in peach Makphyun decreased during storage. The sugar concentration ($^{\circ}Brix$) increased with the amount of peach paste. Textural properties by TPA showed that the hardness of Makphyun containing 20% peach paste was the lowest among the treated samples. However, the hardness of all Makphyuns increased during storage, regardless of the amount of peach paste. In accordance with texture results, DSC (Differential Scanning Calorimetry) showed that the enthalpy of Makphyun with 20% peach addition was the lowest, demonstrating the delaying effect of peach paste on the retrogradation of rice cake. From these results, it was determined that the addition of peach to Makphyn extends shelf-life by delaying retrogradation.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of adding prickly pear (Opuntia ficus-india var. Sabolen) on the quality characteristics of Jeung-Pyun, a traditional fermented Korean rice cake, and to find out an appropriate ratio of prickly pear powder to give a favorable color. Changes in the quality characteristics of prickly pear-added Jeung-Pyun during storage period were also studied. As the addition of prickly pear powder was increased from 1 to 3%, the degrees of expansion and gelatinization of Jeung-Pyun were increased. The degree of gelatinization and hardness were changed slowly during storage at room temperature (20$^{\circ}C$). In sensory evaluation, control Jeung-Pyun samples without prickly pear powder was preferred to that with prickly pear powder, but it was not significant up to 2% prickly pear powder. In the case of Jeung-Pyun containing 2% prickly pear powder, those stored for 12 hr received higher sensory scores than those right after being manufactured. In general, Jeung-Pyun samples with 2% prickly pear powder was favored. The addition of prickly pear powder was likely to improve the preservation property of Jeung-Pyun.

Rice dumpling shells were prepared with different levels of hydrocolloids, such as hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose (HPMC), and potato starch. After steaming, the physical, sensory, and cooking properties of the shells were measured. Increasing the amount of potato starch decreased the pasting temperature and increased the peak viscosity. With the addition of hydrocolloids, water absorption and cooking loss for the rice dumpling shells decreased significantly. For the textural properties, the rice dumpling shells with hydrocolloids showed lower hardness and higher springiness than the control, and especially, 10% potato starch and 3% HPMC addition (P10H3) improved the texture of the rice dumpling shells the most. The sensory results seemed to be affected more by the addition of potato starch than HPMC, and over 15% addition of potato starch significantly decreased the quality of the rice dumpling shells. By addition of adequate amount of hydrocolloids (3% HPMC and 10% potato starch), the sensory quality of rice dumpling shells can be effectively improved.
