The cooking characteristics of Hicook with lecithin and GMS as emulsifier were examined for effect on the reduction of oil levels in fried foods. Hicook and soybean oil were used in stir-frying and pan-frying, and in case of Hicook the weight of oil absorbed and spattered during cooking were significantly lower than in case of soybean oil. Next this study attempt to standardize the recipe for preparation of selected Korean foods, especially in regards of the amount of oil used during cooking. The foods studied were all used frequently in Korea, they inculded stir-fried vegetables, stir-fried rice, and pan-fried fish and soybean curd. The results showed that Hicook, even in a half amount, made it possible cooking food with good properties, and calorie content of cooked foods could be lowered considerably. The trained panelists evaluated sensory characteristics of foods, flavor, appearance, and overall acceptability. Sensory qualities of food prepared with Hicook were highly acceptable, and rated better than controls in flavor and overall acceptability. But because stir-fried food was accepted greasy and oily in customarily, the appearance was rated lower than comtrol. In summary, application of hicook offers means of lowering fat levels while keeping sensory quality good. The emulsifier in Hicook is responsible for reduction of oil content and improvement of quality of fried foods.

Biodiesel is a non-polluting and non-toxic energy source that can replace conventional diesel. However, the higher production cost and raw material scarcity became challenges that obstruct the commercialization of biodiesel production. In the current investigation, fried cooking oil is used for biodiesel production in a hydrodynamic cavitation reactor, thus enhancing raw material availability and helping better waste oil disposal. However, due to the cavitation effect inside the reactor, the hydrodynamic cavitation reactor can give biodiesel yield above 98%. Thus, the use of orifice plates (having a different number of holes for cavitation) in the reactor shows more than 90% biodiesel yield within 10 mins of a time interval. The effects of rising temperature at different molar ratios are also investigated. The five-hole plate achieves the highest yield for a 4.5:1 molar ratio at 65℃. And the similar result is predicted by the response surface methodology model; however, the optimized yield is obtained at 60℃. The investigation will help understand the effect of hydrodynamic cavitation on biodiesel yield at different molar ratios and elevated temperatures.

This study compared aroma compositions and sensory aroma attributes of raw and cooked Tenebrio molitor larvae (mealworms). Main sensory aroma attributes of raw mealworms were strong wet-soil-like, and less-intense oily, shrimp-like and sweet-corn-like. Quantitatively, the major aroma components of raw mealworms were hydrocarbons and aldehydes. As cooking proceeded, sweet-corn-like, roasted, and fried-oil-like sensory attributes were increasingly perceived with steaming, roasting, and frying, respectively. Some pyrazines, pyrrolidines, and carbonyls increased or appeared in roasted and fried mealworms. Partial least squares regression also showed differences in raw and cooked mealworms based on aroma components and their sensory attributes. Unlike raw mealworms, steamed mealworms had a relatively strong sweet-corn-like aroma attribute, which was related to 2,4,6-trimethyl-heptane, 2,4-dimethyl-dodecane, and 3,5-dihydroxy-6-methyl-2,3-dihydropyran-4-one. In comparison, roasted and fried mealworms exhibited roasted, shrimp-like, and fried-oil-like aroma attributes, which were associated with intermediates of the Maillard reaction and lipid oxidation, such as pyrazines, alcohols, and aldehydes. This result during thermal reactions was very similar to those of meat and/or seafood. The use of mealworms as a savory-type flavor enhancer can be expected.

The main purpose of this study was to survey the various kinds of recipes for pheasant found in seventeen Korean cookbooks published from the 1800's to the 1990's. There were 95 pheasant recipes found in the literature which could be classified into three major groups: cooking with moist heat, cooking with dry heat, and other. The three major groups were then broken down into thirteen smaller groups. A detailed look at the frequency of terms in each recipe shows that Gui Sanjeok (grilled Korean shish kebabs) appears 24 times, Guk Tang and Jeongol (soup and stew) 23 times, Kimchi (fermented cabbage) 11 times, Po (jerky) 9 times, Jorim (boiled in soy sauce) 7 times, Jjim (steamed) 6 times, Bokeum (stir-fried) 5 times, Twigim (deep-fried) 3 times, Buchim (fried) 2 times, Jigae jijim (stewed) 2 times, and Jang (paste), Myeon (noodles), Gooum (boiled) and Yeot (Korean hard taffy) 1 time each. The main ingredient is always the pheasant. We investigated the use of the whole pheasant cooked, how to slice and tenderize pheasant meat, use the meat only, or use only certain parts. Depending on the characteristics of cooking recipes, pheasants with thin, soft bones and organs were investigated for cooking. Substituted materials were used for a few of the vegetables, meat, and seafood in the recipes, and seem to go well together. Garnishes used included pine nut powder and fried eggs. Seasoned salt, soy sauce, pepper, sesame, sesame oil, chopped onion, garlic, and ginger were also reported to have been used.

This study investigated the main dishes of menus at university faculty cafeterias to understand current lunch menu trends. A sample of 1040 menus was collected from Internet homepages of 52 universities between March and May, 2014. The main dishes of menus were categorized into six groups based on main ingredients and cooking methods. The most frequently served main dish ingredient was pork followed by fish/seafood, and poultry. Pork dishes and chicken dishes were mainly roasted, pan fried, or deep fried with various carbohydrate ingredients to bulk them up. Large amounts of chili pepper, corn syrup, and oil were added to improve the bland flavor of these dishes, which contain starchy ingredients. In contrast to pork dishes or chicken dishes, 40.2% of beef dishes was served in a more traditional way as soup. Fewer kinds of fish or seafood were used, and the cooking methods also lacked diversity. In conclusion, main dish menus at university faculty cafeterias have undergone changes in terms of ingredients and cooking methods. Meat dishes cooked using traditional methods are becoming less common, especially for pork and chicken dishes, which are quite sweet, salty, and spicy. Extensive use of carbohydrate ingredients was found in some meat dishes and side dishes in one-dish meals.

The stability of red pepper seed oils during storage at 20${\pm}$3$^{\circ}C$, 40${\pm}$3$^{\circ}C$ and heating at 140${\pm}$3$^{\circ}C$ or 180${\pm}$3$^{\circ}C$ were measured to evaluate red pepper seed oil as a cooking oil. Two species of red pepper seeds (native, improved) were dried by either sunlight or heating to prepare the oil samples of NS (native, sunlight-dried), IS (improved, sunlight-dried), NF (native, heated), and IF (improved, heated). During storage at 20${\pm}$3$^{\circ}C$ or 40${\pm}$ 3$^{\circ}C$, acid values (AV) of all red pepper seed oils were higher than that of soy bean oil (SBO), however, peroxide values (POV) were similar to SBO. Antioxidative stability of NS was better than SBO but IF was not. By the heat treatments at 140${\pm}$3$^{\circ}C$ or 180${\pm}$3$^{\circ}C$, NS was identified to have better antioxidative stability than SBO and IF was the lowest. In sensory evaluation of each deep-fat fried potato-chip at 180${\pm}$5$^{\circ}C$, potato-chips fried in NS were better than that of SBO for color, taste, and flavor. NS-fried potato-chips got the highest score in overall acceptance (p<0.05), however, those of IF showed little acceptance. When blended oils (SBO: NOS, 0, 25, 50, 75%) were used, 50% blended oil was the best for taste, color, flavor, cripness, and total acceptance.

The purpose of this study was to develop the standardized recipe and to analyze the nutrients of stir-fried whip-arm octopus as one of the kind of traditional local foods in Busan. The standardized recipe was developed by using cookbooks, home recipes, and the recipes by commercial food restaurants. The nutrient was analyzed by using an AOAC method. Sensory evaluations were made on nine sensory attributes by a 12-member panel. As the results, the whip-arm octopus was recorded as a food source for health, rejuvenation in Jasanobo. Since early 1900, the stir-fried method has been used for cooking with the ship-arm octopus. The main ingredients were whip-arm octopus, onion, large green onion as the local stir-fried whip-arm octopus in Busan. The ingredients of soup were shrimp, little neck clam, and water. Seasoning sauce was mixed with red pepper powder, soy sauce, sesame oil, chopped garlic, chopped onion, and sugar. The seasoning sauce was fermented for three days. The results of sensory scores were salty seasoning 3.66/5.00, taste 3.75/5.00, thickness 3.84/5.00, and smell 4.09. Nutrient retention per 100g of the stir-fried whip-arm octopus was 67.54kcal, protein 6.43g, fat 1.66g, Ca 28.06mg, Fe 2.56mg, cholesterol 68mg, and taurin 51mg. Fatty acid consists of various unsaturated fatty acids such as linoleic acid(46.24%) and oleic acid(33.67%).

Consumption of edible oil at food service institutions in Inchon was surveyed to provide basic data for continuous education of dietitians. Manufacturing industry was the major food service institution(78.8%) in Inchon followed by schools, hospitals and social welfare service centers. Most dietitians were at the age of twenties and college graduates with professional careers of 1-5 years. Oil was purchased on the basis of its quality within 1-3% of total food costs four times a month. Proper frying temperature was determined by dropping salt or food coating materials into the oil. Soybean oil was the most frequently used and commercial frying mix powder and flour and eggs in water were the most common food coating materials. Fish and commercial frozen foods were the most frequently used materials for frying. Fried foods were stored with covers in a basket and consumed within 30 minutes after cooking. Frying oils were used one more time after filtering and color was the index for determination of re-use.

A special form of questionaire was prepared and distributed to 502 housewives in seoul from Feb. 8th to 22nd in 1989. The results were as follows: In Cooking methods, they tended to follow in the steps of their mother, and it took about half an hour or an hour to prepare a meal. They cooked fried foods once or twice a month. Whenever they fried foods they need new oil. Followings were details of cooking method mainly used by housewives. Fishes were tended to be roast, vegetables to be dressing and seasoning. Highly milled boiled rice was best preferred as the cheif food, and it was cooked by following procedure; First rice was washed, and steeped in water for the time being. Next, the water was poured out and water was filled again, then rice with the water was boiled. Fish Chige was cooked in the way that fish was put into the boiled soup. Fermented sao-bean paste Chige was cooked using water in which rice had been washed. Hard-boiled beef with soy sauce was made using the method that soy sauce was properly poured after beef was boiled. A Spinach was boiled shightly with salty water. In view of those results, there were many cases that housewives did not only utilize their knowledge about foods in real dietary life, but also fell short of endeaver to do so. They chiefly made use of the cooking methods instructed from their mother or husband's mother. In conclusion, in order to illuminate housewives to have an exact nutritional knowledge about foods and cooking methods getting out of the loss of nutritions, nutritional education program must be provided for housewives.

Antioxidant rich green leafy vegetables including garden spinach leaf, water spinach leaf, Indian spinach leaf, and green leaved amaranth were selected to evaluate the effects of water boiling and oil frying on their total phenolic content (TPC), total flavonoid content (TFC), reducing power (RP), and antioxidant capacity. The results revealed that there was a significant increase in TPC, TFC, and RP in all the selected vegetables indicating the effectiveness of the cooking process on the antioxidant potential of leafy vegetables. Both cooking processes enhanced significantly (P<0.05) the radical scavenging ability, especially the oil fried samples showed the highest values. There is a significant reduction in the vitamin C content in all the vegetables due to boiling and frying except in the Indian spinach leaf. However, the present findings suggest that boiling and frying can be used to enhance the antioxidant ability, by increasing the bioaccessibility of health-promoting constituents from the four vegetables investigated in this study.
