Collected data was statistically analyzed using the SPSS 10.0 Windows version, and the IPA(Importance-Performance Analysis) was conducted to compare importance and satisfaction from kitchen laboratory facilities which have been a key element of culinary education. Results of this study can be summarized as follows. Firstly, it was found that performance (M=3.42) for culinary practice facilities was lower than importance(M=4.09) for culinary practice facilities. Secondly, through IPA, the importance and satisfaction of culinary laboratory elements showed some differences between the students who had have some educational experience in culinary art prior to enrollmnet and those who had not. The former students attached importance to the usefulness of facilities rather than the size of facilities. And as rapidly improved factors, they answered ventilation and water supply facilities for culinary laboratories. The application of this study in physical environment of culinary education will contribute to improve students` satisfaction with the quality of education.

In this study, Bokbunja (Rubus coreanus), which has various medical applications and excellent functionality, was used together with Teriyaki sauce to compare and analyze the effect of different amounts of Bokbunja (0, 3, 6, 9, 12%) on the physico-chemical quality of a Teriyaki sauce. The sensual quality of Bokbunja Teriyaki sauce and a roasted eel spread with Bokbunja Teriyaki sauce was analyzed to detemine the merchandising potential of this sauce. The moisture content of the Teriyaki sauce decreased as the amount of added Bokbunja increased, and the 3% group showed the highest decrease, which was 73.1%. As the amount of added Bokbunja increased the pH was showen to decreased, and the sweetness of the Teriyaki sauce increased. The sauce containing 12% Bokbunja had the highest increase of $36.9^{\circ}Brix$. The amount reducing sugar was significantly different between each sample. In terms of the L (lightness) value, highter amounts of added Bokbunja resulted in an increase in the L (lightness) of the sauce and significant differences were obsered between sample groups. In regards to the texture, no significant changes were shown for hardness even though the amount of Bokbunja added was different. There was a significant difference between samples for gumminess, a highter concentration of Bokbunja resulted in a higher gumminess of the sauce. As for adhesiveness, there was a significant difference between samples; as more Bokbunja was added, the sauce became betwkier. In regards to the preference of roasted eel containing this sauce, the 6% Bokbunja sauce was the most preferred with a score 7.98 points, and as for flavor, there was significant difference between sauces containing 3, 6 and 9% Bokbunja. In addition there wasn't any significant difference between each sample for sweetness. For softness, the 6% Bokbunja sauce was the most preferred with a score of 9.36 points. The overall-acceptability was in this order: 6>9>3>0>12%, Thus, from the physico-chemical and sensual perspective, the 6% Bokbunja sauce is highly recommended for potential commercial use. In conclusion, we examined the effect of combining Bokbunja, which has medicinal applications and excellent functionality, with Teriyaki sauce and the results of this study indicate that Bokbunja combined Teriyaki sauce produce a high quality food that holds promise for commercialization.

This study was conducted to promote the of fish paste with angelicae gigantis radix powder as a food. The concentrations of angelicae gigantis radix powder were 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, and 2%. All the samples of fish paste with added angelicae gigantis radix powder 37%. For the Hunter color values, the a values increased but the L and b values of the fish paste decreased increasing concentration of angelicae gigantis radix powder and the folding test good score in all the samples(AA). In texture test the hardness, chewiness, brittleness increased with increasing concentrations of angelicae gigantis radix powder. However, cohesiveness and springiness decreased increasing concentrations of angelicae gigantis radix powder. Sensorye valuation, color, flavor, hardness as the concentration of angelicae gigantis radix powder. Sleekness, and springness decreased increasing concentrations of angelicae gigantis radix powder. He fish paste 2% angelicae gigantis radix powder (2AGRP) the highest acceptance scores in color, the fish paste 0.5% angelicae gigantis radix powder (0.5AGRP) highest acceptance scores in chewiness. The fish paste 0.5% angelicae gigantis radix powder (0.5AGRP) also the highest acceptance scores for appearance, flavor, taste, texture, and overall quality. Results suggest that angelicae gigantis radix powder can be applied to fish paste to increase its quality.

This study is based on the utilization of pine mushroom for processing products by development of pine mushroom Jung-Gwa. The results were summarized as follows: Pine mushroom Jung-Gwa were prepared with four different amounts (20, 30, 40, 50%) of honey. Pine mushroom Jung-Gwa color value was the highest by 20% soaking honey-water product and 40% soaking honey-water product was the lowest. Strength and hardness of 20% soaking honey-water product was the highest. Appearance to product of 50% soaking honey-water was the highest preference by all age of except 20's. The honey content of more and more external appearance preference was became higher. Product of 40% soaking honey-water was best by flavor of pine mushroom Jung-Gwa. A sugary tastes comparison 50% soaking honey water to 40% soaking honey water was not distinction. The texture was appeared a statistically significant difference by products of 20%, 30% soaking honey-water. Product of 20% soaking honey-water was favorite in 20's and product of 30% soaking honey-water was favorite in 30's. In overall preference test for pine mushroom Jung-Gwa of 40% soaking honey water was preferred by all age. Oligosaccharide helped geriatric diseases and cheaper. Thus this study used oligosaccharide but the result was not a statistically significant difference of pine mushroom Jung-Gwa products quality by comparison honey-water to oligosaccharide. Therefore oligosaccharide utilization products was thought worth a lot more by processing price and functional.
