The sensory and instrumental characteristics of Jeung-pyun made from various additives were investigated to improve the qualify of Jeung pyun and to know the effects of additives on Jeung-pyun preparation. In sensory evaluation of Jeung-pyun made from various additives, hardness was significantly lower by addition of soy bean flour, whole milk powder, and egg yolk. The cell uniformity of Jeung-pyun was significantly lower by addition of egg yolk and mugwort. And the dgree of bitterness Jeung-pyun containing soy bean flour and mugwort flour were significantly higher than that of control. Retrogradation of Jeung-pyun assessed from DSC thermogram and hardness measured by texturometer was delayed by addition of soy bean flour, and whole milk powder.

Both hand-made and machine-made Chinese noodles are popular in Korea. In this study, each type was evaluated in terms of its physical properties to rigorously determine for consumers which one has better qualities. The noodles were instrumentally measured for color, size, moisture content, density, viscoelasticity, and cutting force. The behaviors of the noodles were visually observed during cooking, and sensory evaluations were performed with the cooked noodles. The hand-made raw noodles were less dense, had higher moisture content, and generated more bubbles during cooking than the machine-made noodles. This indicated that the hand-made noodles contained more entrapped air, thereby resulting in the above physical characteristics. The change in noodle size after cooking was greater in the hand-made noodles, indicating that more entrapped air in expansion escaped during cooking and was replaced by water. The cutting force and viscoelasticity of the hand-made noodles were lower, and were controlled by viscous properties, respectively. These results agreed with the fact that the hand-made noodles had higher moisture content and lower density. In the sensory evaluation, the hand-made noodles presented lower hardness, but higher elasticity. It was inferred that the hand-made noodle dough underwent repeated processes of folding and extending, resulting in better developed of the gluten structure. Consequently, the hand-made noodles were determined to be different than the machine-made noodles in terms of instrumental measurements and sensory observations, suggesting that the hand-made noodles had superior textural properties.

The aim of this research was to develop a practical use of the citron (Citrus junos Sieb.) leaf, which is a by-product of the citron cultivation, by introducing it into the Jeolpyun, one of the most popular rice cakes in Korea. To achieve the goals of this research, the citron leaf Jeolpyun (CLJ) was first precipitated. The sensory properties and physical examination of products containing 0 (control), 1.0, 1.5, 2.0, and 2.5% of the dried citron leaf powders were then assessed by employing sensory evaluations and instrumental measurements for texture and color. A total of one-hundred and fifty women panelists in age categories of 20s, 30s, 40s, and over 50 were randomly selected from residents in the Seoul area. In general, the highest sensory evaluation scores were obtained for CJLs containing 2% of the citron leaf powders by all panel groups although there was some variation. As levels of the citron leaf powder in the CLJ increased, the texture parameters such as hardness, cohesiveness, and gumminess of the CLJ as measured by the Texture Analyzer significantly increased while adhesiveness decreased and springiness remained constant. Accordingly, the optimal amount of citron leaf powder was determined to be 2% or less for CLJ in order to maintain the original texture of the Jeolpyun. As the levels of the citron leaf powder increased in the CLJ, the Hunter colorimetric L-and a-value significantly decreased while the b-value significantly increased. In other words, the CLJs became darker, as well as deeper in green and yellow tones as the levels of the citron leaf powder increased. The above results indicate that the citron leaf could be successfully used for preparation of Jeolpyun at a concentration around 2%(w/w) based on the consumer preference test and instrument analysis of the products. This research is expected to contribute to the industrial use of citron leaf powder in Jeolpyun and other food products.

This study was carried out in order to investigate the processing adaptability of Jeung-pyun. We used rice materals that were developed domestically for improving the utilization of rice. Six cultivars (Ilpoombyeo, Hwasungbyeo, Dasanbyeo, Daeribbyeo 1, Hyangmibyeo 1, Hyangmibyeo 2) of rice were used for making Jeung-pyun. In physicochemical properties of rice, Hwasungbyeo had the highest amylose content (20.4%) and Hyangmibyeo 2 had the lowest one(14.9%). Lipid content was 0.23%(Daeribbyeo 1)-0.43%(Ilpoombyeo), protein content was 7.94%(Ilpoombyeo) -8.43%(Dasanbyeo), and ash content was 0.15%(Hyangmibyeo 2)-1.24% (Daeribbyeo 1). In volume and specific volume of the 3 hour fermented Jeung-pyuns, Ilpoombyeo, Hwasungbyeo, Hyangmibyeo 2 were higher, but in the 7 hour fermented Jeung-pyuns, Dasanbyeo, Daeribbyeo 1, Hyangmibyeo 1 were higher, In the sensory evaluation of the test Jeung-pyuns, the overall quality of the 3 hour fermented Jeung-pyuns was not significantly different among the rice cultivars, whereas in the 7 hour fermented Jeung-pyuns Hyangmibyeo 2 had the lowest values. When the 7 hour fermented Jeung-pyuns were stored at 2$0^{\circ}C$, the hardness and brittleness of Jeung-pyuns were respectively increased, the cohesiveness was respectively decreased. The elasticity was not significantly different among the rice cultivars with storage days, and the gumminess was significantly difference between rice cultivars, respectively increasing during storage, but Hyangmibyeo 2 was the lowest, not increased. In insturmental characteristics of Jeung-pyuns, the hardness was correlated with amylose content and the brittleness and gumminess were highly correlated with the hardness.

The purpose of this research is to study comparatively what the effects will be to the sensory characteristics and texture of Yackwa when the soaking time in syrup varies from 5 minutes, 1 hour, 2 hours, 3 hours, 5 hours and 12 hours. Evaluation was conducted through sensory evaluation and instrumental test by Instron. In results obtained were as follows. 1. In sensory evaluation, color of Yackwas by 1 hour or 2 hours soaking in syrup were better than other sample. Shape of Yackwas by 2 hours or 3 hours soaking in syrup were better than other sample. As the soaking time increased softness of Yackwa tended to increase. Otherwise as the soaking time decreased, fracturability tended to be good. In taste, Yackwa by 1 hour soaking in syrup was the best. 2. Instron measurement indicated that Hardness, Springiness and Chewiness tended to decrease as the soaking time in syrup increased. But Cohesiveness did rot have much effect the soaking time in syrup. 3. Softness and Fracturability of Yackwa had significant relationship with Hardness ana Springiness. Therefore Hardness and Springiness represented the texture of Yackwa. In view of the above results, it came to the conclusion that Yackwa by soaking time in syrup for 1 hour or 2 hours could give the best results among the groups studied.

Sensory and instrumental characteristics of mixed starch gels of defatted corn starch and mung bean starch were examined in terms of the effects of various additives such as textured soy protein(TSP), soybean oil(S0), carboxymethyl cellulose(CMC) and pectin(PC). Gels were prepared by storing the paste at room temperature for 24 hrs and 72 hrs. The additives were used 1% or 2% on the starch basis. The ratio of defatted corn starch and mung bean starch was selected 60 : 40(to, w/w), where the acceptability was the highest. The cohesiveness and springiness of the mixed starch gels stored 24 hrs increased, but the brittleness and acceptability decreased with all the additives. Textural characteristics of the mixed gels stored 72 hrs were different according to the type and content of additives, whereas hardness and cohesiveness increased in all case. Unlike the sensory evaluation, the textural properties of mixed gels tested by a Instron Universal Testing Machine showed no difference in hardness, but the cohesiveness and springiness increased.

The aim of this study is to evaluate the availability of salted and fermented fish (SFF) including salted and fermented anchovy (SFA) and shrimp (SFS) as a marinade of beef jerky. In curing solutions, half (SFA 1 and SFS 1) or whole (SFA 2 and SFS 2) salt-water was replaced with SFF juices. Higher water activity ($a_w$) was found in the beef jerky cured with SFFs than the control (C) (p<0.05). The SFFs had the effect of causing a decrease in hardness and an increase in cohesiveness (p<0.05). Among the treatment samples, springiness was the highest in SFA2 and SFS2 (p<0.05) and the lowest values of Warner-Bratzler shear force were found in SFA1 and SFA2 (p<0.05). The SFFs also had the effect of increasing the flavor of the sensory properties; however, color measurements from both the instrumental surface color ($L^*$, $a^*$, $b^*$, chroma, and hue angle) and color of sensory evaluation were decreased by addition of SFFs (p<0.05). Therefore, we conclude the SFFs can improve the texture and sensory properties of the beef jerky. In particular, the SFS is a good ingredient for the curing solution. However, studies are still needed on improving the $a_w$, pH, and surface color of the beef jerky to apply the SFFs for making beef jerky.

An instrumental analysis of Sanyakbyung was carried out along with sensory evaluation to find out how its quality characteristics changed by the addition of glutinous rice flour(0%, 10%, 20%, 30%, 40% and 50%). The moisture content of Sanyakbyung decreased in proportion to the increment of glutinous rice flour. In terms of color, L-value increased depending on the increment of glutinous rice whereas a-value and b-value showed a decrease. This could be accounted for by two factors: one is that the protein contained in yam flour contributed to black coloring and the other is that the color of yam flour itself contributed ostensively to the tint of blackish coloring, and also to the tint of yellow and red coloring. ln the two bite compression test, the hardness, gumminess, chewiness, and cohesiveness of Sanyakbyung decreased depending on the increment of glutinous rice flour. The springiness did not show any significant variation among the samples. That is, the more yam flour was added, the more cohesive and gummy Sanyakbyung was produced. There were significant differences(p<0.05) in the sensory characteristics of the samples in which Sanyakbyung with 10% glutinous rice flour was most preferred in color, those with 20% in flavor, and those with 40% in taste. Adhesiveness and consistency in the palate responses also showed significant differences among samples in which the sample with 40% glutinous rice flour was most favored in consistency. When the content of yam increased, the gumminess also increased. Generally, Sanyakbyung with soft but less gummy texture was preferred to strong gummy one which was easily stuck to teeth. In the overall acceptance, Sanyakbyung with 40% glutinous rice four was most preferred.
