Cheongkukjang is a traditional fermented soybean food in Korea that is used in the manufacture of functional foods. This study was conducted to assess vitamin contents and sensory qualities of powdered Cheongkukjang dried by oven drying, far-infrared drying and freeze drying. Vitamins $B_1$, $B_2$, $B_6$, E, niacin and pantothenic acid were detected using all drying methods. However, vitamin D was not detected in the oven drying samples, and was most prevalent($82.47{\mu}g$/100 g) in the far-infrared drying samples. The sensory characteristics included color, off flavor, salty taste, bitter taste, sweet taste, roasted taste and after-taste. Oven drying and freeze drying samples exhibited highest and lowest color scores(5.62 and 2.0, respectively). Oven drying samples also exhibited the highest roasted taste score(4.76), although not significantly different from far-infrared drying samples(4.0, p<0.05), while the score of freeze drying samples(2.38) was significantly different from the other methods(p<0.05).

The effect of baking on the consumer perception and sensory characteristics was investigated using a model system of cookies incorporated with strawberry powder as a value-added food ingredient. Strawberry powder was incorporated into cookie dough at 4 levels (0%, 2%, 4%, and 6%, w/w) by replacing equivalent amount of wheat flour of the cookie dough. After aging and sheeting, cookies were baked at $170^{\circ}C$ for 15 min in an oven. The baked cookies were cooled to room temperature for 1 h and packed in airtight bags prior to all measurements. In terms of color, control received the most favorable mean score, which is significantly higher than others (p<0.05) followed by the 4% sample. The consumer preference on taste and aftertaste was not significantly affected by the amount of strawberry powder incorporated in the formulation (p>0.05). Samples with 4% strawberry powder received the highest mean flavor score of 6.28 which is significantly higher than that of 6% sample (p<0.05). In overall, substitution of 4% strawberry powder in the formulation would result in the most favorable strawberry cookies by the consumers with taking advantages of health benefits of strawberry. Correlation analysis indicated that strawberry powder concentration was significantly correlated positively with sensory color and hardness and negatively correlated with consumers' overall acceptability (p<0.05). Consumers' aftertaste was significantly correlated with overall acceptability which was negatively correlated with sensory hardness (p<0.05). Sensory hardness was highly correlated with sensory color attribute (p<0.05).

The effects of shiitake mushroom (Lentinus edodes) on texture properties of surimi gel were investigated. Surimi gels containing 0, 5, 10, 15, and 20% (w/w) of shiitake mushroom were prepared, and then color, rheological properties, and sensory evaluation were analyzed. Increasing the amount of mushroom in the fish paste tended to decrease the lightness in Hunter color value, but to increase the redness and yellowness. All test samples with 3 mm thickness had good flexibility and did not break even after 4 times folds. The sample containing 20% mushroom showed the highest values in strength, hardness, gumminess and brittleness. In sensory evaluation, the higher amounts of mushroom obtained favorite score in color and flavor, and 10% mushroom sample had the best score in overall acceptance. These results suggest that shiitake mushroom can be applied to fish paste for the purpose of high quality.

An instrumental analysis of cooked beef was carried out along with sensory evaluation to find out the effect of Sarcodon aspratus on the physicochemical and sensory characteristics in comparision with kiwi fruit and pear. Transmission electron microscopy showed the muscle fiber started to be degraded when treated with Sarcodon aspratus(1,000unit) for 10 min at $25^{\circ}C$. No distinct sarcomere, A-band, and Z-line was observed when treated with Sarcodon aspratus for 60 min at same condition. The moisture content of cooked beef was increased in proportion to the increment of Sarcodon aspratus, kiwi fruit and pear. In the texture, shear force of cooked beef was decreased with the increment of Sarcodon aspratus, kiwi fruit and pear. In terms of color, L-value was decreased by addition of Sarcodon aspratus, whereas L-value was increased by addition of kiwi fruit and pear in dose-dependent manners. a-value and b-value was decreased with the increment of Sarcodon aspratus, kiwi fruit and pear. There were significant differences (p<0.05) in the sensory characteristics of the samples in which control was most preferred in taste and flavor. As the content of Sarcodon aspratus, kiwi fruit and pear was increased, the score of juiciness and tenderness was increased. In the overall acceptance, score of 0.05~0.1% Sarcodon aspratus and 10% pear was not different from that of control. Therefore, it can be concluded that 0.05~0.1% addition of Sarcodon aspratus might be desirable for the improvement of texture and juiciness of cooked beef.

The soluble solid of red pepper extracted by water was evaluated with descriptive analysis by 10 trained sensory subjects. In the result of the sensory evaluation, the character notes on the flavor of soluble solid were expressed as pungency, sweet, fresh sour, bitter, alcoholic, meaty, chalkiness and astringent. The score of redness was the highest at $4^{\circ}C$ and decreased after 2 hr at $90^{\circ}C$ and the score of sensory pungency was more than 50 and was especially higher at $40^{\circ}C\;and\;90^{\circ}C$. Principal component analysis of the mean ratings showed that kochoojang (fermented red pepper paste) and chigae (meat and vegetable stew) differed from kimchi (unfermented kimchi) and that they had unique sensory attributes. The first two principal components could be explained by 51% of all the components and the taste of soluble solid at $40^{\circ}C$ was highly correlated with sensory attributes such as meaty, fresh sour and sweet and that at $4^{\circ}C$ was chiefly correlated with color components and the taste of soluble solid at $60^{\circ}C$ was showed close relation to astringent, alcoholic and pungency.
