Method to access qualities of brown sauce and optimize its cooking conditions was studied by sensory evaluation and response surface methodology. Cooks of an hotel, sauce experts, were selected as sensory panelists, and the brown sauce cooking conditions practically used in an hotel were adopted to prepare sauce samples for the sensory test. The cooking conditions were designed with two factors, i.e., one factor of roux contents with three levels and the other factor of cooking times with three levels, which were known as most important in sauce cooking. Sensory acceptance evaluation with intensity 7 grades was applied for several sauce attributes such as color, flavour, viscosity, taste and overall. Ability of each panel to perceive the differences between the brown sauces prepared under different cooking conditions was judged, and only data of the 9 panelists proved as reliable among the 12 panelists were reflected. The acceptances by different cooking conditions were found to be in the order of 11 > 9 > 13% roux contents and 8 > 9 > 7 hr cooking times. Response surface methodology was treated with second-order model on the sensory data and the optimum cooking conditions with the highest acceptances were $10.3{\sim}10.8%$ roux content and 8 hr cooking time.

The objective of this study was to develop and standardize a preparation method for low-salt yacon jangachi using rice wine lees. The proximate composition of yacon was 81.08% (moisture), 0.77% (crude protein), 0.14% (crude lipid) and 0.70% (crude ash). In order to determine the preferred sodium concentrations of soaking solution and rice wine lees, we investigated the quality characteristics of yacon jangachi during storage for 50 days at $18^{\circ}C$. The salinity of yacon jangachi using rice wine lees with 2% and 4% salt increased with storage time, but the salinity did not rise above 3% during storage for 50 days. The salinity of rice wine lees with 4% salt decreased during storage time. a and b color values along with sheared force of yacon jangachi increased as storage time increased, but L color value was reversed. In the sensory evaluation, the color preference for yacon jangachi increased during storage time, and the taste preference was highest at day 30. The flavor preference decreased during storage time, but the texture preference was reversed. In the sensory evaluation of overall preference, yacon jangachi using rice wine lees with 0% salt decreased at day 30, whereas yacon jangachi using rice wine lees with 2% and 4% salt increased during storage time. In conclusion, the salinity of yacon jangachi stored for 50 days with 4% salt did not rise above 3%, and softening was not observed.

The influence of three cooking methods (stewing, microwaving and Aluminium (Al) foil-baking) was evaluated on the content of intramuscular lipid and the composition of intramuscular fatty acids of Hyla rabbit. The percentage of intramuscular lipid in cooked-longissimus dorsi (LD) (dry weight %) were in the order mentioned below: microwaving > foil-baking > stewing. All treated samples showed decrease in the proportion of polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) and monounsaturated fatty acids (MUFA), whilst increase in the proportion of saturated (SFA) and n-6/n-3 value during processing. All of the cooked samples had the n-6/n-3 ratio within the recommended range (5-10). By the analysis of partial least squares regression (PLSR), the microwaving treatment was better to keep the stability of unsaturated fatty acids (UFA), whilst the long-time Al foil-baking did the most serious damage to UFA, especially the PUFA. In addition, the heating method showed greater influence on the samples than the processing time. The shorter processing time was better to retain the intramuscular PUFA of Hyla rabbit, especially the LC-PUFAs (C20-22). Considering all the factors, microwaving showed the superiority in reserving the composition of intramuscular fatty acids of Hyla rabbit.

This study investigated the effects of temperature ($50^{\circ}C$, $55^{\circ}C$, and $60^{\circ}C$) and time (12 and 24 h) on the cookery properties of sous-vide (SV) processed pork loin. As an indicator of cookery properties, cooking loss, expressible moisture (EM), pH, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), shear force, total plate count (TPC) and CIE color were measured and compared with fresh (FC) and cooked control (CC, $75^{\circ}C$ for 30 min). SV treatments at $50^{\circ}C$ showed higher tenderness and lower cooking loss comparing to CC. DSC result indicated that thermal transition of collagen was a key factor affecting the cooking loss and shear force of meat. In comparison of CC, risks of insufficient pasteurization and uncooked color generation were not shown in SV processed meat. Therefore, the results indicated that SV had a potential advantage to produce tender and moist meat, and the best SV condition of pork loin was estimated at $50^{\circ}C$ for 24 h.

The content of $N^{\varepsilon}$-(carboxymethyl)lysine (CML), an advanced glycation endproduct, in stir-fried anchovy prepared under different cooking conditions was determined, along with their sensory properties. The aim of the study was to optimize cooking conditions of stir-fried anchovy for minimal CML production by using different sugars, sugar concentrations, pH levels, and cooking times. The results showed that CML content increased with increasing sugar concentration. Cooking time did not affect CML content but lowering the pH with lemon juice decreased it significantly. The CML content of samples with a high sugar concentration, and without lemon juice was $4.67{\mu}g/mL$, and that of samples with both a low sugar concentration and lemon juice was $2.49{\mu}g/mL$, indicating a 47% reduction in the CML content of sir-fried anchovy. We conclude that stir-fried anchovy cooked with less sugar and the addition of lemon juice can reduce CML content while maintaining sensory characteristics.

Effects of cultivars, cooking, and processing on hemagglutinin activity were evaluated by observing macroscopic hemagglutination using serial twofold dilution of trypsinized human blood type-O or rabbit blood. Hemagglutinin activity was expressed as maximal geometric dilution fold. Agglutination of rabbit blood was more sensitive compared to human blood. Hemagglutinin activities of glyphosate-tolerant soybean, HS2906, and imported conventional soybeans were not statistically different, although significant differences were observed among conventional soybean cultivars cultivated in Korea (286 to 1535 HU/mg protein). Time required to reach fifty percent inhibition of hemagglutinin activity ($IT_{50}$) value decreased with increasing cooking temperature and pressure. Most effective conventional cooking method to inhibit hemagglutinin activity was pressure-cooking ($IT_{50}$: 1.36 min). Calculated activation energy based on reaction rate constant was 4.88 kcal. No hemagglutinin activities were detected in processed soybean products such as tofu, soybean paste, and soysauce.

It is known that mackerel and pork belly release a strong odor in the process of roasting. We evaluated a dilution factor of odor arising during roasting mackerel or pork belly and the relative odor strength using several cooking tools and analyzed compounds causing odors with gas chromatograph/mass detector. Roasting pans used were grill with lid, electric grill without lid and general roasting pan, and a grill with lid can attach the activated carbon charcoal deodorant at the inside of lid. And all electric grills have a drip tray under the heater. We investigated characteristics of odor emission depending on the presence of water and deodorants in these cooking tools. Study has shown that roasting mackerel produces approximately 36 time more odors than roasting pork belly, and the reduced odor emission when roast with water. And it shows the reduced deodorant effect when cooked with water after attaching activated carbon charcoal in the cooking pan. Major odor causing compounds arising when cooking mackerel and pork belly were aldehydes with high boiling point such as octyl aldehyde with a low odor threshold value.

This work was carried out to investigate the changes of chemical and physical properties of frying oil, when it was used many times continuously without adding new oil. Four kinds of frying oil (soybean oil, rapeseed oil, shortening and crude lard) and slices of potato and Aji (kind of fish) were used in the experiment under the condition of home cooking. Obtained results were as in the followings. 1. Acid values and peroxide values of each frying oil were under the safety level (A. V = 1.5, Po. V = 50) except crude lard, when frying works were continuously repeated five times for 50 days. 2. Changes of saponification values of each frying oil showed a decreasing tendency except the crude lard. But in cases, stickiness or clothing of oil were not seen in frying even at the five times frying. 3. Changes of optical density of each frying oil showed a decreasing tendency in all cases, according to the times of frying, especially at the first time frying. 4. Maximum heights of the shamp of each frying oil and their shampholding activites when heated, were slowly increased according to the times of frying. 5. Without concerning the cooking condition (kinds of oil, cooking material and repeating times of frying) decrement of oil in once frying was almost exactly 20g per 150g. 6. Decrements of cooking material in all cases of frying showed almost constant values, potato to be 40% and Aji 20%. 7. Differences of smoke point between new and old oil (frying repeated 5 times) showed also almost constant values. Liquid oil (soybean oil and rapeseed oil) showed number (6-$10^{\circ}C$), on the contrally solid oil (shortening and crude lard) a high number (10-$25^{\circ}C$). 8. Results of public tastic for the frying products were almost good even in that of a low five times frying, but the products, of third time frying with crude lard were expressed as disagreeable.
