The effects of tapioca starch (TS) and tapioca modified starch (TMS) as additives on the quality characteristics of rice cookies were investigated in this study. The amounts of TS and TMS replaced were 5, 10 and 15%(w/w) based on 100 g of rice flour. At the result of rapid viscosity analyser (RVA) properties of rice flour added with starches, peak, trough, and final viscosity of rice flour added with TMS decreased significantly(p<0.05). Hardness of dough and cookies as measured by Texture analyzer (TA) significantly decreased upon addition of TMS, and hardness of cookies significantly decreased upon addition of TS, hardness of cookies TMS lower than TS. L value of dough and cookies increased upon addition of TMS, whereas a value decreased upon addition of TMS. Spreadability of cookies increased upon addition of TMS, 10% TMS is the highest. Bulk density of dough decreased upon addition of TMS, bulk density of cookies decreased upon addition of TS and TMS, and bulk density of TMS cookie lower than TS cookie. In sensory evaluation, 10% TS added rice cookies showed the highest score in overall acceptability, hardness, brittleness, color, softness, taste and flavor, and 15% TS added rice cookies showed the highest score in appearance. And 15% TMS added rice cookies showed the highest score in overall acceptability, taste, brittleness, flavor, and 10% TMS added rice cookies showed the highest score in hardness, flavor, taste and color. It is indicated that the quality characteristics and sensory characteristics of the rice cookie can be improved by adding TS and TMS.

To investigate the effect of flour brew with bifidobacteria on bread characteristics, flour brew with bifidobacteria was added to baking after 16 hour incubation at 37oC. The more addition of flour brew, the higher gassing power, the better machinality of dough were obtained, resulting in the larger specific volume of bread. Flavor profile analyzed by Electronic Nose System showed that flavor components of 30% flour brew were decreased comparing with those of control and there was shown definite difference in sensory characteristics between them. Staling studies of bread containing flour brew indicated had a definite effect in retarding the staling rate of bread, with time constant calculated in 30% treatment being 3.09 days and in control being 2.08 days. The enthalphy of gelatinization was decreased from 2.51J/g to 0.61J/g with increment of flour brew, suggesting that starch crystallization is delayed. conclusion, Flour brew fermented by bifidobacteria can be used as a natural bread improver with so many benefits as better machinality, one more day storage period, slower staling rate, better bread volume and more appealing bread flavor.

Reducing the fat content of processed meat products can be performed by (1) using leaner raw meat materials (2) inducing non-meat ingredients that serve to replace a portion or all of the fat, and (3) applying new ingredient combinations, technologies or processing procedures that decrease the fat and cholesterol content of meat products. Low-fat meat products were manufactured with Int replacers which were food ingredients that had the functional and sensory properties of fat without contributing fat calories, resulting in lower fat(<3%) content. Added water, non-meat proteins, carbohydrates, such as starch and hydrocolloids(gums) and vegetable oils have been used as typical fat replacers to be used in meat products. In addition, fat substitutes included structural lipids, sucrose polyester and ingredient combinations. Formulations for the manufacture of low-fat meat products in combined with new technologies have focused on the use of fat replacer combinations that contributes a minimum of calories and not detrimental to flavor, juiciness, mouthfeel or textural traits expected more traditional products. In conclusion, some combinations of fat replacements that mimics the flavor, mouthfeel and textural characteristics of fat offer potential for further development of low-fat meat products to have similar characteristics of regular-fat counterparts.

This study investigated the quality characteristics of anchovy Engraulis japonicus sauce added with onion to improve flavor, reduce salinity, and enhance the antioxidative activity. 4 samples were prepared to find the proper amount of onion, including a control group without onion and 3 samples with different amounts of onion: 10% (Fs-10), 20% (Fs-20), and 40% (Fs-40). The samples were collected at intervals of 15 days while fermenting at 25℃ for 60 days. As the amount of added onion increased, the browning index decreased, and the flavor of anchovy sauce was enhanced. The composition of amino acids showed high content of glutamate and alanine that can improve the overall taste. In the free radical scavenging activity test, the Fs-40 group showed the highest value, 74.72%, compared to 10.98% of the control in the antioxidative activity. When evaluating overall preference such as color, fishy smell, flavor with richness, and overall acceptability, the control was rated the lowest, while the Fs-40 was rated the highest and was recognized for its overall excellence. Adding onion not only reduced salinity and increased antioxidant activity but also improved overall sensory properties by adding richness and minimizing fishy smell.

In beer, glutathione works as the main antioxidant compound, which also correlates with the stability of the beer flavor. In addition, high residual sugars in beer contribute to major nonvolatile components, which are reflected in a high caloric content. Therefore, in this study, the Saccharomyces cerevisiae GSH1 gene encoding glutamylcysteine synthetase and the Saccharomycopsis fibuligera ALP1 gene encoding ${\alpha}$-amylase were coexpressed in industrial brewing yeast strain Y31 targeting the ${\alpha}$-acetolactate synthase (AHAS) gene (ILV2) and alcohol dehydrogenase gene (ADH2), resulting in the new recombinant strain TY3. The glutathione content in the fermentation broth of TY3 increased to 43.83 mg/l as compared with 33.34 mg/l in the fermentation broth of Y31. The recombinant strain showed a high ${\alpha}$-amylase activity and utilized more than 46% of the starch as the sole carbon source after 5 days. European Brewery Convention tube fermentation tests comparing the fermentation broths of TY3 and Y31 showed that the flavor stability index for TY3 was 1.3-fold higher, whereas its residual sugar concentration was 76.8% lower. Owing to the interruption of the ILV2 gene and ADH2 gene, the contents of diacetyl and acetaldehyde as off-flavor compounds were reduced by 56.93% and 31.25%, respectively, when compared with the contents in the Y31 fermentation broth. In addition, since no drug-resistant genes were introduced to the new recombinant strain, it should be more suitable for use in the beer industry, owing to its better flavor stability and other beneficial characteristics.

The purpose of this study was to analyze factors affecting acceptance of four kinds of dak-jjim samples in third year school-aged children (n=100). Soy sauce, red pepper paste, Vietnam fish sauce, and star anise were applied to samples for their familiar and exotic characteristics. Significant differences among samples were observed in odor, taste, and acceptance (p<0.001). Soy (Soy sauce sample), RPPaste (Red pepper paste sample), and Soy_FishS (Soy sauce and Vietnam fish sauce sample) samples scored higher than Soy_StarA (Soy sauce and star anise sample) sample. On the other hand, there were no significant differences in intensities of saltiness, sweetness, and hot spicy flavor (p>0.05). Liked attributes in samples were saltiness, sweetness, chicken flavor, potato flavor, moistness of chicken, hot spicy flavor, and color. Disliked attributes in samples were hot spicy flavor, saltiness, and ginger flavor. Significant differences among samples were observed in familiar intensity and willing to try again (p<0.001). Soy, RPPaste, and Soy_FishS samples scored higher than Soy_StarA sample. Panels considered taste (46%) and nutrition (45%). Higher familiar intensity of sample was associated with higher acceptance in samples. In other words, familiarity of food affects acceptance of food. Therefore, familiar ingredients such as soy sauce and chicken can be used for development of Korean menu items considering taste and nutrition with enhanced Korean food acceptance in school-aged children.

The pacific oyster Crassostrea gigas has a desirable taste and flavor that differs from those of other fish and shellfish. In order to develop a high value-added product from individually quick-frozen oyster extract (IQFOE), we prepared an oyster granular flavor seasoning (OGS) from IQFOE and characterized its qualities. The OGS was prepared by granular molding and fluidized bed drying with inosine monophosphate (IMP, 0.1%), yeast extract powder (1.4%), tangle extract powder (0.6%), monosodium glutamate (MSG, 5.0%), microcrystalline cellulose (0.6%), lactose (27.5%), salt (33.0%), spray-dried IQFOE (22.5%) as a powdered materials, and IQFOE ($Brix\;25^{\circ}$, 7.0%), soy sauce (0.4%) and water (1.7%) as a liquid materials. The moisture, crude protein, pH and salinity of the OGS were 3.4%, 12.5%, 6.50 and 32.0%, respectively. Especially, the OGS revealed very higher amino-N content (1,856.0 mg/100 g) than that (1,291.2-1,610.2 mg/100 g) of other commercial flavor seasonings. In taste-active compounds, free amino acid contents was 1,359.0 mg/100 g, and major ones were glutamic acid, taurine, hydroxyproline, glycine, lysine, phosphoserine, proline in order. And OGS showed good organoleptic qualities for taste, odor and general preference compared with commercial flavor seasonings on a local market.

This study was conducted to identify the sensory characteristics of the Korean traditional confectionery, dasik, prepared under different conditions and to compare their consumer acceptance in Korea. To accomplish this, descriptive analysis of eight samples prepared using two types of rice cake powder, dasik (Rflour, Rflour_Omija), brown rice powder red ginseng dasik (Brice_Ginseng_P), pinepollen dasik (PineP), black sesame dasik (BSesame), bean dasik (Rbean), and two types of mungbean starch dasik (Starch_Omija, Starch_Greentea), was conducted by ten trained panelists. In addition, 81 consumers evaluated the overall acceptance (OL), acceptance of appearance (APPL), odor (ODL), flavor (FLL), and texture (TXTL) of the samples using a 9-point hedonic scale, as well as the perceived intensities of sesame flavor, sweetness, and hardness using a 9-point just-about-right (JAR) scale. Partial least square- regression (PLSR) indicated that the BSesame and Rbean samples, which had significantly (p<0.05) high roasted sesame, burnt, greasy, glossy, and cooked chestnut flavor scores, had the highest acceptability and consumer desire scores. Additionally, the PineP and Rflour_Omija samples, which had relatively high particle size, transparency, roughness, spoiled tofu, fermentation and raw rice flavor scores, were the least preferred samples. Therefore, roasted sesame, burnt, greasy, glossy, and cooked chestnut flavor attributes were considered drivers of "liking" whereas particle size, transparent, roughness, spoiled tofu, fermentation, and raw rice flavor attributes acted as drivers of "disliking" among consumers.

Optimum preparation conditions for chicken head soup base were determined in terms of the effects of amount of chicken head and cooking time using response surface methodology based on sensory properties. Sensory properties that were evaluated were yellowness, turbidity, bloody, chicken-brothy, organ meat-like, and fat-like flavor. All values of sensory characteristics increased remarkably with an increase in the amount of chicken head and cooking time. The optimum amount of chicken head and cooking time were determined to be 1800 g and 150 minutes, respectively. Chicken head soup base had less fat, free amino acids, nucleotides, and its derivatives, but had significantly more cholesterol, sodium, and iron than whole chicken soup base. In flavor compound analysis, the amount of hexanal of the chicken head soup base, which is related to fat rancidity flavor, was 11-fold higher than that of the whole chicken soup base.

The quality changes of brown rice during storage were determined by the method of quantitative analysis of n-hexanal, amylogram, texture and volume expansion. The qualities of stored brown rice were also analyzed with sensory evaluation of cooked milled rice obtained from brown rice, n-Hexanal content, peak viscosity and total setback of brown rice flour pastes increased substantially with the increased of storage period at 35$^{\circ}C$. Up to 10 months of storage at 35$^{\circ}C$, stale flavor obtained by a sensory method markedly increased, but stickiness decreased. The scores of overall preference were in good agreement with those of stale flavor (r=-0.98) and sticky texture (r=0.98). The correlation coefficient between stale flavor obtained by a sensory method and instrumetal analysis for stored brown rice was r=0.97.
