To establish the roasting conditions of dandelion leaves for the manufacture of processed foods such as beverages and tea, we investigated the physicochemical and sensory characteristics of dandelion leaves and their hot water extracts by roasting treatment. As the number of roasting times increased, the free sugar content of the roasted dandelion leaves decreased, and in particular, free amino acid and total polyphenol content decreased greatly after only 1 roasting treatment. The amino nitrogen and total polyphenol contents of the roasted dandelion leaf hot water extracts also decreased greatly, and their L-, a-, and b-values showed much lower values than those of the raw leaf extracts. However, a greater amount of reducing sugars was extracted in the roasted leaves than in the raw leaves, suggesting that the roasting process allows for easier extraction of the compounds in dandelion leaves. Five sensory characteristics, including astringent taste, bitter taste, peen flavor, burnt taste, and sweet odor, were deduced through quantitative descriptive analysis of the hot water extracts. Among them, astringent taste, bitter taste, and green flavor showed significant differences between roasting treatments. The sensory evaluation results show that as the number of roasting times increased, the palatability of the hot water extracts increased greatly, in terms of color and taste.

The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of guar gum on the rheological behaviors, sensory attributes, and consumer acceptability of soft tofu stew sauce. Five different soft tofu stew sauces were commercially manufactured with various levels of guar gum (0.0, 0.1, 0.2, 0.4, and 0.5%). Twelve sensory attributes of the stew sauces were identified by nine trained descriptive panelists, whereas hedonic levels of the stew sauces were assessed by a group of 51 consumers. Steady flow of the stew sauces were measured by a rheometer. Significant differences were observed in terms of sensory saltiness and viscosity among the products. For the consumer test, 0.1% guar gum-added product was most liked by consumers. Partial least square regression showed sensory shellfish, green onion, and shrimp flavors to be key factors affecting overall acceptability for the stew sauces. For rheological behaviors, 0.0, 0.1, and 0.2% guar gum-added products showed newtonian behaviors ($R^2$=0.99 by power law model), whereas 0.4 and 0.5% products followed pseudoplastic behaviors ($R^2$=0.99 by power law model). Based on the established equivalence table using rheological and consumer data, smaller than 0.0114 ($Pa{\cdot}s$) of the apparent viscosity should be necessary to guarantee 'slightly like' category in a consumer hedonic test. It seems that addition of guar gum not only influenced rheological properties but overall acceptability for the stew sauces.

In order to study the tenderizing effect of proteolytic enzymes in fruits, beef(M. semimembranosus) was marinated with meat sauce containing each fruit juices. After cooking, the shear force was measured by Rheometer and evaluated the sensory properties of beef by quantitative descriptive analysis method. The results are as follows: 1. The combination ratio of meat sauce:water was 2:1 with pH 5.0∼5.5 showed the max. tenderness. 2. As a result of shear force test, the decrease of shear force was pineapple>papaya>fig>kiwifruit>pear: especially, pineapple, papaya and fig tendered the beef significantly comparing with pear and kiwifruit at p<0.001. 3. The tendering effect of pineapple and papaya on the meat showed significant difference (p<0.01) comparing with pear in tenderness and overall acceptability by sensory evaluation; and there was a significant difference between pear and papaya in taste (p<0.05). 4. There was highly significant correlation between mechanical tenderness and sensory properties: correlation of fruit and mechanical tenderness was -.877(p<0.01); between mechanical tenderness and overall acceptability, r = .532(p<0.01); between fruit and sensory tenderness, r = .495(p<0.01); between mechanical tenderness and sensory tenderness, r = .490(p<0.01). At p<0.05, between taste and juiciness, r = .208.

This study investigated the quality characteristics of sponge cakes with addition of paprika powders prepared from different cultivars. Powders from the special cultivar(FDFP: freeze dried fiesta paprika powder) and the fiesta cultivar(FDFP: freeze dried fiesta paprika powder) were used. The specific gravities, viscosities, heights, specific volumes, colors, textures and sensory evaluations of cake dough containing 2, 4 and 6%(all w/w) paprika powders were measured. Specific gravity and viscosity tended to increase on addition of paprika powder. Cake height and specific volume tended to decrease on addition of paprika powder. Substitution of paprika powder for flour also resulted in decreased yellowness and lightness, and increased redness, of the cake crust. The hardness of cakes containing paprika powders was higher than that of control cakes without paprika powders. Thecolor of the cake crust became darker as the amount of paprika powder increased. The results of sensory evaluation by quantitative descriptive analysis showed that the overall acceptability of sponge cakes containing 4% paprika powder, from either cultivar, was higher than that of control cakes without paprika powder.

The purposes of this study were to compare the effect of several reheating treatments (heating in the frying pan, convection oven and microwave oven) on sensory characteristics and to evaluate the safety during storage period of cook/chill Pajeon. The sensory evaluations were made on 5 sensory attributes by a 9-member panel using quantitative descriptive analysis (QDA). The fresh cooked Pajeon and the Pajeon reheated in the frying pan obtained a significantly (p<0.01) higher score in taste than the ones reheated in a convection oven and microwave oven. The reheated cook/chill Pajeon had a significantly (p<0.01) lower score in flavor than the freshed cooked one. Regardless of the reheating methods, sensory scores in texture of the Pajeon reheated at $v$ for 1 day were not different from that of fresh cooked one. However, the scores of the reheated ones in a convection oven and in a microwave oven decreased with storage time up to 5 days at $3^{\circ}C$. On the other hand, the Pajeon reheated in the frying pan, even after 3 days' storage at $3^{\circ}C$, was not found to be inferior to the freshed cook one in every quality attributes except flavor. Therefore, the reheating treatment in frying pan may be superior to those in a convection oven and a microwave oven. The safety of Pajeon was also evaluated by measuring total count, coliform count, psychrotrophic count, acid value and peroxide value during 5 days of storage periods at $4^{\circ}C$. Total counts of Pajeon was ranged from not detectable to $5.2\times10^2$ CFU/g. The coliform and psychrotroph were not detected at all experiments. The acid values were ranged from 1.90 to 4.03 mg of KOH/g of fat until 5 days at $4^{\circ}C$. And the peroxide values were ranged from 3.63 to 12.50 meq of peroxide/kg of fat until 5 days of storage period. Therefore, these results demonstrated that Pajeon is microbiologically and chemically safe during 5 days of storage period at refligeration temperature.

Purpose: This study was designed to elucidate the energy-utilization patterns for five methods of robo production. Methods: Robo (fried melon cake) was produced using five different methods, and the energy used for each unit operation was calculated using standard equations. The sensory attributes of the products were determined by panelists. Data were analyzed using descriptive analysis and analysis of variance at p < 0.05. Results: The energy demands for processing 2.84 kg of melon seed into robo (fried melon cake) using processes 1 (traditional method), 2, 3, 4, and 5 (improved methods) were 50,599.5, 21,793.6, 20,379.7, 21,842.9, and 20,429.3 kJ, respectively. These are equivalent to energy intensities of 1,7816.7, 7,673.8, 7,175.9, 7,691.2, and 7,193.4 kJ/kg, respectively. For the traditional process, the frying operation consumed the highest energy (21,412.0 kJ), and the mixing operation consumed the lowest energy (675.0 kJ). For the semi-mechanized processes, the molding operation consumed the highest energy (6,120.0 kJ), and the dry milling consumed the lowest energy (14.4 kJ). Conclusions: The energy-consumption patterns were functions of the type of unit operation, the technology involved in the operations, and the size of the equipment used in the whole processing operation. Robo produced via the milling of dried melon seed before oil expression was rated highest with regard to the aroma and taste quality, as well as the overall acceptability of the sensory evaluation, and required the lowest energy consumption. Full mechanization of the process line has potential for further reduction of the energy demand.

We sought to extend the shelf-life of Alaska pollack Theragra chalcogramma sikhae while maintaining quality. We compared the chemical, microbiological, and organoleptic characteristics of sikhae prepared under four different conditions. Control fish were fermented at ambient temperature ($21{\pm}2^{\circ}C$); other samples were stored at $5^{\circ}C$ after fermentation at ambient temperature for 36 h (A1), 60 h (A2), and 84 h (A3). Volatile basic nitrogen and amino-nitrogen levels, and total acidity increased with fermentation time in all samples, but the pH fell, attaining a relatively lower level in the control than in other samples. Over 90% of all viable cells were lactic acid-producing bacteria; this proportion did not change significantly during fermentation. In terms of texture, only hardness was affected by fermentation. The hardness of the control fell more rapidly than did that of the other samples. In terms of sensory evaluation (the acceptance test and quantitative descriptive analysis [QDA]), A2 was superior to other samples after fermentation for different times; A2 maintained limited salability (6 points on the relevant index) for up to 17 days of storage.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the changes of flavor and taste characteristics of black pepper treated with three different nonthermal sterilization methods, which are intense pulsed light (IPL), ultraviolet (UV), and cold plasma (CP). Also, the sensorial and instrumental evaluation of black pepper before and after nonthermal treatments were analyzed. As a result of color value, UV and CP treatments did not show chromacity difference (ΔE), but IPL treatment showed a significant difference of 6.58. Piperine contents of sample before nonthermal treatments was 10.7±0.53 mg/g and the piperine contents of all samples decreased after nonthermal treatments. The result of the electronic nose analysis were divided into two groups before and after nonthermal treatments, and divided into three group by principle component analysis. According to the intensity test, after nonthermal treatments, all sample had low flavor and taste, and the intensity was in the order of IPL, CP, and UV. In thirteen sensory attribute languages developed through quantitiative descriptive analysis (QDA), the intensity value of the samples were low after nonthermal treatments.

The sensory and safety of cook-chilled Buchu-jeon were evaluated to provide to foodservice operation during chilled storage for 5 days. The sensory evaluations of cook-chilled Buchu-jeon were conducted according to 3 reheating methods which was frying pan, steam/convection oven and microwave oven. The sensory evaluations were made on 4 sensory attributes (taste, odor, color, and texture) by a 9-member panel using quantitative descriptive analysis (QDA). The Buchu-jeon reheated in the steam/convection oven, after 1 day storage at $3^{\circ}C$, obtained higher score in taste, odor and texture than the ones reheated in a frying pan and microwave oven. Three reheating methods didn't show any difference in taste, odor, color, and texture of Buchu-jeon at $3^{\circ}C$ for 3 days. The Buchun-jeon reheated in microwave oven at $3^{\circ}C$ for 5 days had a significant $(p\leq0.05)$ lower score odor and color than the ones reheated in frying pan and steam/convection oven. The safety of Buchu-jeon was also evaluated by measuring total count, coliform count, psychrotrophic count, acid value and peroxide value during 5 days of storage periods at $4^{\circ}C$C. Total counts of Pajeon was ranged from $5.0\times10^{1}$ CFU/g to $2.2\times10^{2}$ CFU/g and the coliform and psychrotroph were not detected at most experiments. The acid values were ranged from 1.80 to 2.18 mg of KOH/g of fat until 5 days at $4^{\circ}C$. And the peroxide values were ranged from 4.44 to 17.87 meq of peroxide/kg of fat until 5 days of storage period. Therefore, these results demonstrated that the cook-chilled Buchu-jeon is microbiologically and chemically safe during 5 days of storage period at refrigeration temperature.
