Although the mackerel is an excellent food, there are disadvantages of its own smell and its shelf-life. So this study aimed to examine the quality assessment, shelf-life and acceptability of mackerel marinated with different amounts of thyme extract through the salinity, pH, texture, change of color, and sensory evaluation for reducing the smell of it and improving the shelf-life and acceptability of it with the thyme of various physiologic activities. The salinity of mackerel marinated with different amounts of thyme was a lower 2% than that of the existing salted mackerel, 5%, when producing the salted mackerel in the experimental method of this study, reducing the intake of salt. The shelf life of the existing salted mackerel was up to 4 weeks, while that of the salted mackerel marinated with thyme extract was up to 5 weeks. The change in pH during storage showed that the salted mackerel marinated with thyme extract after 5 weeks were within the initial decomposition of dark-fleshed fishes, pH 6.2-6.4, which the shelf life was extended due to the preservative effect of antioxidant content. The acceptability test showed that T 1 marinated with 1% thyme extract was ideal in all flavor, taste and general acceptability.

Quality characteristics effects of adding four different amounts (0%, 1%, 2%, 3%) of Ulleung-Maesil (Prunus mume fruit) powder cookie doughs were examined. pH, water content & bulk density of dough, spread factor, color value, hardness and consumer acceptability of maesil cookies were measured. The pH and water content of freezedried Ulleung-Maesil powder were 2.01 and 6.26%, respectively, while the L, a, b values were 76.14, -1.66 and 28.65, respectively. Although bulk density of the 3% powder group of cookie dough was the highest, its pH value was the lowest compared to the other groups (p < 0.05). Spread factor of the 3% group showed the lowest value among all groups (p < 0.05). Hardness of the control group (i.e, 0%) was significantly higher than the 1%, 2%, 3% groups (p < 0.05), which showed no significant difference among themselves. The ${\Delta}E$ value of cookies increased significantly with increasing Maesil powder content (p < 0.05). The consumer acceptability scores for control and 1% Maesil cookie groups ranked significantly higher than the 2% and 3% groups in overall acceptability, taste, flavor and texture (p < 0.05). In conclusion, our study suggests that small amounts of Ulleung-maesil can add positive attributes to cookies.

This research examined the quality characteristics of orange sauce samples prepared with different sugar contents in order to create a standardized recipe.In the foodservice industry, attempts have been made to make superior sauces, often resulting in error. In this study, different sugar contents were examined for orange sauce to determine why varied results occur during its preparation as well as the best methodology for preparing orange sauce. Quality characteristics such as color differences, spreadability, and pH were analyzed, as well as sensory evaluations of taste, texture, color and overall acceptability. The pH values of the orange sauce samples ranged from 3.6 to 3.63 and after the initial simmering of ingredients, the weight reduction rates of the sauces were 88, 75, 64, 63, and 64% for sugar contents of 200, 300, 400, 500, and 600 g respectively. Hunter's color L, a, and b values of the samples changed according to the sugar contents after simmering (1st sauce). The L and b values showed similar patterns, where increasing sugar content resulted in higher values; however, in the 2nd sauce, the pattern was reversed. This indicates that the color of the sauce was affected by sugar caramelization during the reduction process; however, the final color was modified by the additions of mayonnaise and butter as well as by aeration. In the sensory evaluation the sample containing 30% sugar (500 g) had significantly higher acceptability scores (p<0.05) for color, mouth feel, appearance, taste, and overall acceptability. Finally, the optimal ingredient ratios of the standardized orange sauce recipe were determine as: 48% total liquid consisting of orange juice and mandarin and orange fruit; 30% sugar; 10% mayonnaise and 11% butter.

In this study, the fermentative characteristics of rye sourdough fermented with Omija extract were investigated. The pH and total titratable acidity, numbers of yeast and lactic acid bacteria, and expansion rate were measured. While the pH of Omija rye sourdough decreased from 5.60 to 3.86, the total titratable acidity significantly increased from 2.39 to 8.50 with fermentation time (p<0.05). The numbers of yeast and lactic acid bacteria significantly increased for 18 h of fermentation period (p<0.05). The expansion rate of Omija rye sourdough showed a maximum of 183%, more than 47% more than the highest value of rye sourdough (129%). These results suggest that the application of Omija extract for making sourdough could be a good way to decrease the sanitary risk especially for early stage of sourdough fermentation. In addition, Omija rye sourdough could contribute to improvement of baking quality such as volume increase and flavor improvement of rye bread.

The purpose of this study was to determine the most desirable mixture ratio of Maesil (Prunus Mume) concentrate torice flour for the preparation of Sulgidduk. The five different levels of Maesil (Prunus Mume) concentrate were 0%, 4%,8%, 12%, and 16% and were stored over 3 days. The results of this study were as follows. First, the water activity of Sulgidduk was significantly increased upon addition of Maesil(Prunus Mume) concentrate to rice flour. However, in terms of mechanical texture characteristics, the hardness of Sulgidduk was decreased, Maesil(Prunus Mume) concentrate was added to Sulgidduk. The control was $764.58{\pm}5.3\;g/cm^2$. Each amounts of added Maesil(Prunus Mume) concentrate to rice flour (4%, 8%, 12%, and 16%) resulted in hardness levels of $633.44{\pm}13.0\;g/cm^2$, $617.64{\pm}16.2\;g/cm^2$, $585.31{\pm}27.5\;g/cm^2$, and $350.98{\pm}10.2\;g/cm^2$, respectively. In addition, both gumminess and cohesiveness of Sulgidduk increased with increasing amounts of added Maesil (Prunus Mume) concentrate to rice flour. Regarding the color value of Sulgidduk, with added Maesil(Prunus Mume) concentrate the L-value decreased, while both a-and b-value increased. In the sensory evaluation, surface color, taste, and flavor were improved with increasing amounts of Maesil(Prunus Mume) concentrate, whereas texture decreased. Based on sensory evaluation, Maesil (Prunus Mume) concentrate resulted in intensified color, taste, and flavor of Sulgidduk. Consequently, 4% to 8% Maesil (Prunus Mume) concentrate to rice flour was determined to the best formula for improving Sulgidduk in terms of sensory qualities such as moistness, color, taste, flavor and so on.
