This study investigates the quality characteristics and antioxidant activities of muffins prepared using various kinds of rice powder. Muffins were prepared by adding 50% white rice, black rice or red yeast rice powders, thereby replacing wheat flour in the basic formulation. Wheat flour muffins had the maximum height and volume. The lightness value of black rice and red yeast rice muffins was lower than that of the wheat flour muffins. Redness was the highest for red yeast rice muffins. The 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazy (DPPH) radical scavenging and superoxide dismutase (SOD)-like activities activity of black rice and red yeast rice muffins were higher than those of the wheat flour muffins. The 2,2'-azino-bis-(3-ethyl-benzothiazoline-6-sulfonic acid) (ABTS) radical scavenging activity of red yeast rice muffin was also higher than that of the wheat flour muffins. Thus, the black and red yeast rice powders can be effectively used as functional ingredients in bakeries due to their antioxidant activities.

Physicochemical and sensory characteristics of rice cookies prepared with various levels of amylose content were investigated in this study. Dough pH of Jinsumi and Milyang 261 cookies was decreased by addition of rice flour. Density of dough with 100% substituted Jinsumi flour had the largest value of 1.09 g/mL, whereas that of Milyang 261 cookies showed no significant difference. Spread ratio of cookies was the largest in the cookies containing Jinsumi, and Milyang 261 constituted the 50% group. Preservation ability of Milyang 261 cookies surpassed above 30%. Lightness of Jinsumi and Milyang 261 cookies increased with increasing rice flour content. The results of our sensory evaluation demonstrated that the control sample was significantly more preferable in terms of overall acceptability compared to others. These results suggest that adding 30% Milyang 261 flour is the best substitution ratio for rice cookies.

This study was investigated (replaced) the sensory and physicochemical properties of Jeungpyun substituted with 30% or 60% of brown rice and barley flours, respectively. The quality changes of the functional Jeougpyun during the storage periods were analyzed by a texturometer. We found that batter pH was decreased as fermentation progressed, but showed a higher pH resulted after steaming. The brown rice replaced Jeungpyun had higher specific gravity and lower viscosity; however, the barley-replaced Jeungpyun had lower specific gravity and higher viscosity compared to those of the control(0% replace with brown rice or barley flour). The barley-replaced samples showed significantly larger volume indexes than that of the control. The L-value of the for lightness decreased significantly within the replaced samples(p<0.001). All samples had negative a-values, with slight peen colors rather than red. The barley-replaced samples were darker than those of the brown rice sample groups, with less green and yellow color. The brown rice-replaced samples had larger values for adhesiveness, overall, and moistness, and the barley-replaced samples showed intensities greater in cell size, springiness, hardness, and flavor by sensory evaluation. The 30% flour-replaced samples of the comparisons had higher values for overall desirability(p<0.001). The replaced samples showed slow increases in hardness when measured by a texturometer, indicating that, the retrogradation rates decreased as the storage periods increased. The control stored for 72 hr had a hardness value that was 8.0 times harder than that of the control stored for one hour. The 30 and 60% brown rice-replaced samples stored for 72 hr were 5.8 times and 4.7 times harder of their replacement level, respectively, and the 30 and 60% barley-replaced samples stored for 72 hr were 5.7 times and 4.2 times harder of their replacement level, respectively. The adhesiveness and cohesiveness of all samples tended to decrease as the storage period increased. The barley-replaced samples showed significantly the lower adhesiveness and cohesiveness during the storage periods. The springiness of all samples decreased slowly during the storage periods. In conclusion, Jeungpyun that was substituted with brown rice and barley flours demonstrated improved functionality and higher dietary fiber replaced effect. Furthermore, the storage period of was extended as the retrogradation rate was delayed as a result of the dietary fibers.

To develop the high quality gluten-free rice products with health functionality and desirable texture with moistness, the physicochemical properties of extruded rice flours prepared from the mixture of germinated brown and white rices were investigated. The domestic organic Samgwangbyeo was used to make white and germinated brown rices. White rice (WR) was dried after soaked for 6 h at $15{\pm}3^{\circ}C$ and mixed with germinated brown rice (GBR) with different mixing ratios (100:0, 75:25, 50:50, 25:75, 0:100). The operating conditions of twin screw extruder were 250 rpm of screw speed, $120^{\circ}C$ of barrel temperature, and 25% moisture content of rice flour. The ash, crude protein and crude lipid contents were significantly different (p<0.05) and those of extruded GBR were the highest values, but those of extruded WR were the lowest. The color difference of extruded WR based on white plate showed the lowest among them. The water binding capacity (334.16%), swelling power (8.83 g/g), solubility (33.13%), and total starch (79.50%) were the lowest in extruded GBR. The viscosities of all extruded rice flours by RVA were maintained during heating. The peak and total setback viscosities of extruded rice flours ranged 127-352 and 58.0-85.5 cP, respectively. The novel food biomaterial from germinated brown rice as well as white rice was developed by twin screw extruder. The extruded rice flours control the moistness to improve the texture and also have functional materials, dietary fiber, GABA, and ferulic acid, etc to increase quality of gluten free rice products.

This study was performed to examine the functional and quality characteristics of rice cookies with added Ligularia fischeri (Ledeb.) Turcz. powder. Rice cookies were prepared with different amounts (0%, 0.5%, 1%, 1.5% and 2% to the flour quantity) of Ligularia fischeri powder. The antioxidant activities of Ligularia fischeri powder, specifically the total phenolic content, DPPH free radical scavenging activity and reducing power were found to be 212.19 mg GAE/g, $11.78{\mu}g/mL$11.78 ($IC_{50}$), and 2.33 (O.D.), respectively. The antioxidant activities of the rice cookies with added Ligularia fischeri powder increased with increasing concentrations of Ligularia fischeri powder. Regarding the hunter's color value of rice cookies with added Ligularia fischeri powder, L (lightness) and a (redness) values decreased (p<0.001) with increasing concentrations of Ligularia fischeri powder, whereas b (yellowness) values increased (p<0.01). The consumer acceptability score for the 3% Ligularia fischeri rice cookie groups ranked significantly (p<0.001) higher than the other groups in color, flavor, taste, texture and overall preference. These results suggest that Ligularia fischeri powder will be useful as a functional food resource with antioxidant activities.

Effects of resistant starch as a functional substitute on the quality of Yukwa were determined. Replacement ratios of resistant starch were 2, 4, and 6% of glutinous rice flour. Regarding pasting properties of Yukwa dough replaced with resistant starch, initial pasting temperature significantly increased and peak viscosity significantly decreased with increasing resistant starch. The moisture contents of bandegi and Yukwa base replaced with resistant starch were higher than that of the control. The expansion ratio of Yukwa base replaced with resistant starch significantly decreased with increasing resistant starch, and there were no significant differences in the oil absorption ratio. Lightness (L) of Yukwa base replaced with resistant starch increased significantly with increasing resistant starch. Appearance of Yukwa base replaced with resistant starch showed a shortened length and increased width with increasing resistant starch, and cross-section showed an oval shape, fine air cell distribution, and increased outer layer thickness. Hardness and peak number increased significantly with increasing resistant starch. The overall acceptability of Yukwa base replaced with 6% resistant starch was the highest among the samples, but the result was not significant. The above results show that resistant starch substitution in Yukwa improved the texture and further could improve health functionality due to its dietary fiber content. Resistant starch was appropriate as a 6% replacement for glutinous rice flour in Yukwa.

The Present study was attempted to investigate the Possibility of modification of functional properties of the rice flour by crosslinking proteins using microbial transglutaminase (mTGase) derived from a variant of Streptoverticillium sp. MTGase was added at various levels (3,000, 5,000, 7,000 and 10,000 ppm) during making noodles mixed with the rice flour. Mixograph and farinograph showed that imported wheat flour (IWF) had strong dough stability, while the rice flour showed very weak dough strength. However addition of mTGase (3,000, 5,000 and 7,000 ppm) resulted in improvement of dough stability of the rice flour. Texture profile analysis (TPA) results indicated that most of texture parameters (gumminess, chewiness and hardness) of cooked noodles prepared from the rice flour were significantly lower than those of noodles prepared from IWF. However, by addition of mTGase (at the levels of 3,000, 5,000, 7,000 ppm) dough stability and all the TPA values and sensory score (at the level of 7,000 ppm mTGase) on chewiness and hardness of cooked noodles made with $30\%$ rice flour were improved significantly. These results suggest that dough stability and texture of rice noodles as well as sensory characteristics could be improved by addition of mTGase to the rice flour.

A method for coating rice with a novel substance, SHC [soybean hydrolysate with Cyclo Histidine-Proline (CHP)], was developed to produce functional rice for food production. The dip coating and spray coating method was tested to reduce the loss of functionality during the manufacturing of enriched rice. The dip coating method showed a very low absorption rate ($0.079min^{-1}$) of the functional substance compared to control ($0.150min^{-1}$), while the spray-coating method with protective coating materials [a methyl cellulose solution (l%, w/v) containing 5% (w/v) of the SHC] showed relatively adequate absorption characteristics. A light yellowish stain was observed in the rice samples processed by the spray-coating method (b value; surface1 0.69, flour 4.91) compared to raw rice (b value; surface 9.67, flour 4.86). The microscopic appearance of whole kernels and longitudinal sections revealed that cracks formed in all rice samples, regardless of the coating method. In conclusion, spray coating is a potential method for producing SHC-fortified rice with excellent physical characteristics.

The effects of tigernut dietary fiber (TDF: 5, 10, and 20% w/w) inclusion in rice muffin formulations on the functional and pasting properties of composite powders, as well as the nutritional and sensory properties of muffins were investigated. The results showed a significant (p<0.05) proportional increase in the water and oil holding capacity as TDF increased in the powder blends. Moreover, pasting viscosity was found to decrease with the inclusion of TDF. TDF muffins showed improved nutritional quality, with increased protein (~14%), insoluble fiber (~128%) and total fiber (~34%) contents compared to 100% rice muffins. Also, TDF-muffins had lower baking losses (~22%) and better texture, including firmness and chewiness. Sensory scores of TDF-muffins (up to 10% w/w) showed similar consumer acceptability for all parameters considered. Overall, this study suggests tigernut fiber as a functional additive that balances the growing consumers' demands for healthy and quality gluten-free rice muffins.

Purpose: To improve the cooking quality of brown rice, newly inbred soft rice cultivars were investigated. Methods: The physicochemical properties of brown rice flour and water absorption patterns and cooking characteristics of brown rice grain were compared to Ilmi white and brown rice. Results: General composition and total dietary fiber contents of five rices were significantly different with higher ash, protein, and total dietary fiber contents in soft brown rice than white rice. The hardness of raw rice grain was higher in Ilmi brown rice than in soft brown rice. The water absorption increased rapidly in 30 min of white rice and in 4-6 h of brown rices. The apparent amylose content of soft brown rice was lower than that of Ilmi rice. The initial pasting temperature and all viscosities were significantly different, but the trend was not similar. The textural properties of hardness and roughness were higher, but adhesiveness, cohesiveness, and stickiness were lower in Ilmi brown rice than white and soft brown rices. In sensory preference test, not only textural properties, hardness, adhesiveness, cohesiveness, stickiness, and roughness, but also color, glossiness, and roasted flavor were higher in soft brown rices. Especially soft brown rice B showed the best cooking quality among all rices. Conclusion: The results of the study suggested that soft brown rice is developed for cooking with high nutritional and functional quality.
