The purpose of this study was to investigate the quality characteristics of cookies prepared with dropwort powder(0, 2, 4, 6, and 8%) for flour. The bulk density of cookie dough of groups with dropwort powder shows significantly differences when compared to the control group. The pH of cookie dough and cookies were decreased by addition of dropwort powder. The moisture content of the groups with dropwort powder was higher than that of the control group. The weight and width of the groups with dropwort powder was lower than those of the control group. The spread ratio of the groups with dropwort powder was lower but the loss rate of cookies was higher than those of the control group. In color, the L, a, and b value was decreased significantly by addition of dropwort powder. The hardness of the groups with 2% and 4% dropwort powder was higher than that of the control group. DPPH radical scavenging activity of the control group was 20.62%, whereas the groups with dropwort powder ranged from 32.11~65.10%. Sensory evaluation scores in terms of appearance, flavor, taste, texture, and overall preference of groups with 2% and 4% of dropwort powder did not show any significantly differences when compared to the control group. Based on the above results, using less than 4% of the dropwort powder would be proper to make cookies.

This study investigates the characteristics of cookies added with yacon. The addition of yacon powder did not affect the density of the cookies and decreased pH level. The moisture content was the highest in the cookies with 12% of yacon. Spread ratio was the highest in the cookies containing yacon powder. The loss rate and leavening rate of the cookies decreased with increasing amounts of yacon powder. Lightness and yellowness decreased significantly while redness increased significantly with a high content of yacon powder in the formulation. The hardness of the control group was higher than that of the cookies prepared with different levels of yacon powder. The antioxidant activity was estimated by DPPH free radical scavenging activity and the total phenolic acid content in yacon powder and cookies. The consumer acceptability score for the 6% yacon cookie group ranked significantly higher than the other groups in overall preference, appearance, flavor, taste and color. Through this experiment, this study exhibited both the functional and health based benefits of yacon when it is added to cookies and confirmed the development feasibility of yacon cookies considering consumer satisfaction.

Tarak is our own traditional fermented milk, which is made from lactic acid fermentation by using makgeolli as inoculum for milk or fermented by using Tarak that had already made. we made our own traditional fermented milk and Tarak Pudding by the traditional fermented milk, and then, we investigated the quality characteristics of Tarak Pudding on the addition rates of Tarak. As a result, the more the amount of Tarak, the more the contents of crude protein, crude fat and crude ash of Tarak Pudding according to the percentage of addition of Tarak meaningfully, except for its moisture content (p<0.05). While the pH decreased with more Tarak, the acidity significantly increased. In the case of sugar content, TP 1, 2, and 3 were higher than the control group, and TP 4 showed the higher sugar content(p<0.05). As the result of measurement of chromaticity of Tarak Pudding, the L value of the control group was 38.80. However, it increased with more addition of Tarak, while a value decreased. For the b value, it significantly increased with more Tarak. In the measure of texture, there were significant differences between the control group and the samples in hardness, springiness, cohesiveness, chewiness, and adhesiveness (p<0.05). The sensory evaluation result showed that there were meaningful differences among the samples in their appearance, taste, flavor, texture and overall acceptance. However, due to distinctive sour and odor of Tarak, TP 3 (75% addition) than TP 4 (100% addition) was considered to be desirable.

The objective of this research was to investigate the potential use of Prunus mume liqueur byproduct (PLB) as an ingredient in noddle processing. After boiling, the weight and volume of PLB added noodles and turbidity of the noodle soup decreased significantly, compared with those of the control. In sensory evaluation, appearance and color scores of the noodle with PLB were lower than those of the control. However, scores for texture, flavor, taste and overall acceptability were higher in the noodle with PLB than in the control. The pH value of the noodle decreased with increase of PLB concentration and did not change during storage for 30 days at $10^{\circ}C$. Changes of titratable acidity in the noodle with PLB showed the same trend as pH. The surface of the noddle was covered with mold in the control and 10% PLB added noodle after 15 days storage at $10^{\circ}C$. However, the noodle with 20% and 30% PLB did not how significant increase in total bacteria up to 30 days at $10^{\circ}C$.

Mushrooms have a shorter shelf-life than most vegetables because of their very high respiration rates, sensitivity to enzymatic browning and susceptibility to microbial spoilage. This study was conducted to investigate effects of various packaging materials and precooling on the quality of mushrooms (Agaricus bisporus). Mushrooms were precooled at $4^{\circ}C$ for three hours and packaged using the following packaging materials; 1) polyethylene (PE) film bags of 0.03 mm thickness, 2) polypropylene (PP) film bags of 0.03 mm thickness, and 3) polystyrene (PS) tray+polyvinyl chloride (PVC) wrapper. The physiological changes (weight loss, gas composition, color, firmness, and sensory evaluation) associated with postharvest deterioration were monitored for 17 days at $10^{\circ}C$. The results showed that the PP film bag maintained quality of mushrooms most effectively, especially PP film bags inhibited decreasing firmness. The samples also exhibited smaller decreases in weight loss rate (0.57%) and Hunter L value (84.44) than PS tray+PVC wrapper (7.73%, 82.19) and PE film bags (0.89%, 82.96). Sensory evaluation level in all samples remained relatively constant during the first 5 days of storage. However, PE film bags and PS tray+PVC wrapper showed lower score of flavor, texture and color than PP film bags after 8 days of storage. This study suggested that PP film bag packaging effectively extends shelf-life of mushrooms during storage.

This study examined the effect of 3 evaluation factors(extraction temperature, extraction time and drinking temperature) on the 5 tastes (sour, sweet, malty, salty and bitter) of coffee. the aim of this experiment were threefold: i) to investigate the change of the 5 tastes depending on the each 3 evaluation factor ii) to examine the change of the 5 tastes depending on the extraction time, drinking temperature under fixing the group of extraction temperature iii) to research the preference for the taste of coffee depending on 3 evaluation factors. As a result, in relation to the evaluation factors, significance difference was made at the sour taste. And when extraction temperature was higher and extraction time was longer, the sour taste was felt stronger. To the contrary, when drinking temperature was lower, sour was stronger. When the extraction Temperature group was controlled, the sour and malty taste were stronger. The sour taste was stronger when drinking temperature was lower and delicate flavor was stronger when drinking temperature was higher. High preference was demonstrated at extraction temperature($98^{\circ}C$), extraction time(0 minute), drinking temperature($60^{\circ}C$) and higher malty taste.
