This study was carried out to investigate the possibility of improving the texture and the flavor of Dasik made of the Omija extract, various sugars and rice powder. Sensory quality and mechanical characteristics of Dasik were compared. The moisture content of the Croup of tile Dasik added with Omija extract was higher than that with non-Omija extract The Omija Dasik containing molasses showed the highest value (23.5%) in moisture content. In sensory quality, Omija Dasik containing honey and symp showed the highest score in overall acceptability (6.2 and 6.0, respectively). The Rice Dasik containing syrup showed the highest values in lightness (L) and yellowness (b) in color. The Omija Dasik containing syrup showed the highest values in redness (a) in color. The Dasik added with honey and syrup were lower in hardness, but higher in cohesiveness, springiness, gumminess and brittleness of textural characteristics. When sensory quality and mechanical characteristics of the Dasik were compared with, the gumminess and brittleness in mechanical characteristics were positively correlated with the appearance and the taste acceptability in sensory quality (p<.01, p<.05). The springiness was negatively correlated with the tooth packing in sensory quality (p<.001). The Omija Dasik was more desirable in flavor, taste and overall acceptability, especially those added with honey and syrup. From the above results, the honey might be replaced by the less expensive syrup, when making the Omija Dasik.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of the addition of sweeteners to Sesame Dasiks. Sesame Dasiks were prepared by adding various sweeteners to sesame seeds powder, at 40, 50, 60 and 70%, and their quality characteristics were measured. In the chewiness and hardness analyses of Sesame Dasiks, the 50% group (the same ratio and mixture of honey and rice jelly) eave the highest results. For the sweetness, taste and overall acceptability of the Sesame Dasiks, the 50% group was also the better The texture profile analyses found the optimal chewiness and hardness of the Sesame Dasik to be 0.28∼0.30 and 27.22∼27.44, respectively.
