To develop Korean-style cut noodles with enhanced protein and calcium levels, we manipulated the ratio of dried anchovy Engraulis japonicus soup base residue powder to wheat flour, using a response surface methodology based on trained panel trials to determine the optimum ratio. Texture analysis and nutritional evaluation were also performed on cut noodles containing dried anchovy soup base residue (CNAR). Higher umami taste and springiness, and lower fishy flavor were strongly correlated with overall acceptability. The optimal CNAR formulation consisted of wheat flour (96.02 g), anchovy residue powder (2.67 g), and water (50.64 mL). CNAR had lower gumminess and adhesiveness (P<0.001), but higher springiness, cohesiveness (P<0.001), and chewiness (P<0.05), than the control (original wheat flour cut noodles). The addition of anchovy soup base residue elevated protein, lipid, and ash levels relative to the control. Color values decreased with increasing residue powder content. In vitro protein and starch digestibility of CNAR were lower than in the control (P<0.001). CNAR yielded significantly higher total free amino acid content than the control (P<0.01), leading to CNAR's improved palatability. Dried anchovy soup base residue can be used in wheat flour cut noodles to improve nutrition, sensory acceptability, and profitability.

This study evaluated the quality characteristics of semi-dried noodles prepared with various dry rice flours (0, 25, 50, 75, and 100%) in order to develop the most preferred noodle recipe and to increase rice consumption. Amylography measured the viscosity of composite dry rice flour-wheat flour and indicated that the gelatinization point and maximum viscosity decreased as the level of dry rice flour increased. Both L and a values for cooked noodle significantly increased as the dry rice flour increased; however the L value decreased for uncooked of noodles. Weight, volume and water absorption of cooked semi-dried noodles significantly decreased as the dry rice flour increased; however the turbidity of soup increased. Texture properties such as hardness, springiness, cohesiveness, and adhesiveness decreased as the level of dry rice flour increased. As the amount of rice flour added increased, large particles of gluten were reduced while smaller particles of starch increased by scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The color, taste, and overall preference of 75% noodles were the highest in the sensory characteristics. The results, showed that the addition of dry rice flour positively affects the overall sensory characteristics of semi-dried noodle with 75% representing the optimal level for addition.

The principal objective of this study was to evaluate the quality characteristics of dried noodles when different concentrations of Boehmeria nivea powder were added to wheat flour. Cooking quality, mechanical textural properties, and viscosity were measured, and sensory evaluation was conducted with the prepared noodles. The gelatinization points of the composite Boehmeria nivea powder-wheat flours increased. The viscosity at $95^{\circ}C$, viscosity at $95^{\circ}C$ after 15 minutes, and maximum viscosity values of the samples decreased, as the Boehmeria nivea powder content increased as measured via amylography. The L and b values decreased and a value increased with increasing amounts of Boehmeria nivea powder. Further, the color values, weight and volume of the cooked noodles increased, along with the turbidity of the soup with increasing amounts of Boehmeria nivea powder. Regarding textural characteristics, Boehmeria nivea powder additive increased hardness and reduced adhesiveness, cohesiveness, and springiness. Overall, noodles prepared with 15% Boehmeria nivea powder were preferred compared to other noodles, according to the results of our sensory evaluation.

This study was performed to find out the quality characteristics of rice noodles by addition of red ginseng(0, 2, 6, 10%). The quality characteristics of the sample were estimated in terms of general composition, growth of microorganism and sensory evaluation. The results from this study were as follows. The protein, lipid and ash contents did not show significant difference in any of the groups. In dry rice noodles, moisture content significantly decreased in red ginseng groups but, in half-cooked rice noodles, moisture content significantly increased in 6 % and 10% red ginseng added groups(p<0.05). The microbial count showed less growth in red ginseng added groups after 3 months(p<0.05). According to sensory evaluation, surface color proved very good in the 10% red ginseng added group among the training panel while very good in the 2% red ginseng added group among consumers. Flavor was good in red ginseng added groups(p<0.05). Taste was very good in the 3% red ginseng added group. Appearance and overall quality were highest in the 2% and 6% red ginseng added groups(p<0.05). Therefore, rice noodles containing 2% or 6% red ginseng were most preferable and safe during 5 months and 6 days in dry and half-cooked noodles respectively.

This study investigated the quality of noodles containing different amounts of Capsosiphon fulvescens powder. Noodles were prepared with C. fulvescens powder at ratios of 0, 1, 2, 3 and 4% based on flour weight. Cooking quality, mechanical texture properties, and viscosity were measured, and a sensory evaluation was performed with the prepared noodles. Gelatinization points of the composite C. fulvescens powder-wheat flours increased. As measured via amylography, viscosity at $95^{\circ}C$, viscosity at $95^{\circ}C$ after 15 minutes, and maximum viscosity values of samples decreased as C. fulvescens powder content increased. As increasing amounts of C. fulvescens powder were added, L, a and b values decreased, whereas color values, weight, and volume of cooked noodles increased, as did turbidity of the soup. In the texture meter test, hardness, cohesiveness, and springiness increased according to increasing concentrations of C. fulvescens powder. However, adhesiveness of noodles decreased by addition of C. fulvescens powder. Sensory evaluation showed that high quality cooked noodles could be produced by 3% inclusion of C. fulvescens powder.

This study investigated the quality characteristics of $Jajang$ noodles with added spinach (20%, 30% and 50% based on water). Significant increases ($p$<0.05) were found in cooked weight, water absorption of cooked noodles, turbidity of soup, while soup volume did not changed in proportion to the addition of spinach. Decrease of L and a values and an increase of b values were shown with the increase of spinach concentration. For textural properties, hardness was the lowest in 50% spinach noodles and the highest in 20% spinach noodles. The cohesiveness and springiness values of 20% and 30% spinach noodles were superior to those of the control, but a rise in spinach concentration (50%) lead to a reduction these values. In a sensory evaluation, the most acceptable sample was the 30% spinach noodle sample. These results suggest an addition of 30% spinach is suitable for spinach $Jajang$ noodle processing.

This study investigated the quality of noodles containing different amounts of Ligularia fischeri powder (LFP). Noodles were prepared at ratios of 0, 1, 3, 5, and 7% LFP based on flour weight. Cooking quality, mechanical texture properties, and viscosity were measured, and a sensory evaluation was performed with the prepared noodles. Gelatinization points of the composite LFP-wheat flours increased. As measured via amylography, viscosity at $95^{\circ}C$, viscosity at $95^{\circ}C$ after 15 minutes, and maximum viscosity values of samples decreased, as the LFP content increased. As increasing amounts of LFP were added, the L, a, and b values decreased while color values, weight, and volume of cooked noodles increased, as did the turbidity of the soup. With regard to textural characteristics, LFP additive increased hardness, cohesiveness, and springiness, while decreasing adhesiveness. Sensory evaluation showed that high quality cooked noodles could be produced by inclusion of 3% LFP.

The objectives of this study was to investigate the properties and stability of the wet noodles added to nanoemulsion as a industrial model system, and in so doing, survey practical applicability in the food industry. In order to test out these objectives, the characteristics and stability of the wet noodles added to nanoemulsion were investigated and their cooking characteristics and capsaicinoids loss were examined. As a result, the test results showed that the findings indicated that the post-cooking loss of capsaicinoids in the wet noodles added to double-layer nanoemulsion covered with chitosan was less than the losses in the wet noodles added to any other noodles. More especially, this demonstrates that the noodle added to double-layer nanoemulsion covered with chitosan scored significantly higher than the others with reference to their cooking properties, color, texture, stability for storage stability, and sensory evaluation. These results show that the findings of this study demonstrated that the noodles added to nanoemulsions could be produced as a food-grade merchandise because they could provide enhanced encapsulation capacity of capsaicinoids and higher acceptability.

This purpose of this study was to investigate cooking characteristics of noodles prepared by adding 0, 2, 4 or 6 percent of Capsosiphon fulvescens to wheat flour containing konjac powder. Water binding capacity was significantly increased with increasing amounts of Capsosiphon fulvescens. Weight and volume of cooked noodles increased significantly in proportion with the amount of Capsosiphon fulvescens. Turbidity of the soup after cooking also increased with the addition of Capsosiphon fulvescens. Brightness(L) and redness(a) were decreased with addition of Capsosiphon fulvescens. Yellowness(b) increased. The color value of cooked noodles was decreased compared with that of wet noodles. Sensory evaluation scores revealed that cooked noodles with 4 percent addition group were highest in terms of color, flavor and overall acceptability. This study validates that addition of Amorphophallus konjac and 4 percent Capsosiphon fulvescens may improve functionality and preference of noodles.

The principal objective of this study was to determine the effects of wheat flour ferment cultured with Lactobacillus acidophilus, specifically with regard to the preservation of noodles. The results showed that the addition of ferment to wheat flour during noodle preparation reduced the pH of the noodles, and no significant difference was observed in the L and ${\Delta}E$ values of the noodles adding 5% ferment. Total bacterial levels were decreased in the wet noodles to which more than 10% ferment was added, by a factor of log $10^3$ as compared to the levels seen in the control during storage. Deterioration became apparent at 4 days of storage in regular wet noodles, but did not occur until 6 days in the wet noodles to which 5% ferment was added, and not until 8 days of storage in the noodles to which 10% ferment was added. Cooked noodles deteriorated at 8 days after the beginning of storage, but the addition of 5% and 10% ferment extended that time to 12 days and 14 days, respectively. It was concluded that flour ferment cultured with L. acidophilus exerts favorable preservation effects on noodles and breads.
