Four-dimensional response surface methodology was applied to determine the optimum preparation conditions and to monitor sensory qualities of canned oyster mushroom during preparation. The optimum preparation conditions predicted for each corresponding sensory parameter of canned oyster mushroom were 181.29 g of oyster mushroom 205.36 ml of solution and 6.49min of roasting time for color, 214.01g, 195.79ml and 5.07min for appearance, 227.71g, 224.26ml and 6.50min for flavor, 250.30g, 183.63ml and 17.32min for taste, 211.59g, 178.21ml and 17.79min for mouth-feel, 249,.02g, 188.79ml and 17.80min for overall palatability of canned oyster mushroom, respectively. The optimum conditions, which satisfied with all sensory properties of canned oyster mushroom, were 240g, 200ml and 17min for content of oyster mushroom, content of solution and roasting time, respectively. Sensory scored predicted at the optimum conditions were in good agreement with experimental ones.

The purpose of this study was to determine the optimum amounts of vegetables to use for flavoring chicken head soup base. The effects of the amounts of ginger and onion on the sensory properties of chicken head soup base were examined, and the optimum amounts were determined using response surface methodology. Sensory properties that were evaluated were yellowness, turbidity, bloody flavor, chicken-brothiness, organ meat-like flavor, and sweet taste. The increased amounts of ginger and onion led to a decrease in bloody flavor and organ meat-like flavor. The optimum levels of ginger and onion were determined to be 40g and 50g, respectively. Chicken head soup base prepared with optimum amounts of vegetables contained more arginine, tryptophan, inosine monophosphate (IMP), and hypoxanthine than plain chicken head soup base. It also had less hexanal, which is related to fat rancidity.

Optimum preparation conditions for chicken head soup base were determined in terms of the effects of amount of chicken head and cooking time using response surface methodology based on sensory properties. Sensory properties that were evaluated were yellowness, turbidity, bloody, chicken-brothy, organ meat-like, and fat-like flavor. All values of sensory characteristics increased remarkably with an increase in the amount of chicken head and cooking time. The optimum amount of chicken head and cooking time were determined to be 1800 g and 150 minutes, respectively. Chicken head soup base had less fat, free amino acids, nucleotides, and its derivatives, but had significantly more cholesterol, sodium, and iron than whole chicken soup base. In flavor compound analysis, the amount of hexanal of the chicken head soup base, which is related to fat rancidity flavor, was 11-fold higher than that of the whole chicken soup base.

The purpose of this study was to determine the organoleptic properties of mushroom pickles made at various compounding ratios according to central composite design for optimum organoleptic properties. In this study, various kinds of mushroom pickle were made at different compounding ratios of vinegar, sugar and salt-critical ingredients of the pickle recipe and the products were presented to an expert panel, who graded the subjects in 7 degrees for 5 items: color, flavor, hardness, taste and overall quality. As a result of sensory quality, mushroom pickles with 300g of vinegar, 150g of sugar and 60g of salt achieved the highest grade. Meanwhile, the results of Response Surface Methodology were different from the sensory quality results, showing that the optimum mixing conditions for overall organoleptic properties of mushroom pickle were 279.58g of vinegar, 179.34g of sugar and 59.09g of salt. (Ed- based on this conflict in results, I suggest that you make a final recommendation, of either the first, the second, or perhaps an intermediate, ratio)

The objective of this study was to develop functional rice coated with yacon roots extracts and to evaluate the antioxidant properties and physiological activity of rice coated with yacon extract. The washed rice was coated by spraying yacon extract at 10, 20, 30, and $40^{\circ}Brix$ and dried at room temperature. The moisture contents, color changes, antioxidant properties as total polyphenolics and DPPH radical scavenging activity and instrumental texture property and sensory evaluation change in the yacon root extracts coated rice and uncoated cooked rice were observed during 3 days of storage. Increasing the coating concentration was associated with lower color values(L value) and moisture contents. Total phenolics and DPPH radical scavenging properties generally increased in the cooked rice coated with yacon root extract more than the control (non-coated rice). However, D-20($20^{\circ}Brix$ of the yacon root concentration) resulted in better textural properties and sensory overall acceptability in cooked rice on 0 and 3 storage days. It was concluded that the optimum coating ration of rice and added functional yacon rice were $20^{\circ}Brix$ and 7% respectively, in proportion to the total weight of raw rice.

The purpose of this study was to find appropriate processing condition of astringent persimmon and persimmon leaf granular tea. Under the condition of 4 hour extraction and $50^{\circ}brix$, extraction yield and concentrating of astringent persimmon were the greatest. Under the condition of 2 hour extraction and $7^{\circ}brix$, extraction yield and concentrating of persimmon leaf were the greatest. The optimum condition of granular tea with astringent persimmon and persimmon leaf added was the best in astringent persimmon concentrate of 16% and persimmon leaf concentrate of 4%. It had the best taste after the condition in a brix value of 16.15% and a pH of 5.57. The L-value of chromaticity was -79.13, a-value 2.27, and b-value 2.41. In the sensory properties correlation analysis of astringent persimmon and persimmon leaf granular tea, sweet taste, color acceptability, odor acceptability and taste accept-ability were positively significant correlation with most sensory properties. However, astringent taste was no significant correlation with sensory acceptability. Bitter taste and after taste were negatively significant correlation with most sensory properties.

To establish the optimum formular for processing bread with steam-dried Hizikia fusiformis flour(SHF), it was incorporated into wheat flour by the ratio of 0, 1, 3, 5 and 7% based on a flour weight. Evaluation was performed on the rheological and sensory profile of bread, such as specific loaf volume, water holding capacity(WHC) and height, appearance and Hunter's color value, mechanical texture properties, and sensory value. Increase in the addition of SHF led to the tendency that the expansive force of dough fermentation reduced, and an increase in the textural properties of bread. And cohesiveness, gumminess, and chewiness indicated the tendency of a little reduction as influenced by adding more dried Hizikia fusiformis powder. As for sensory properties and flavor components of the white bread, in case of color and flavor, more than 3% of increase in the addition of the dried Hizikia fusiformis powder led to a drop in preference, and more addition led to a fall in taste and softness. Overall, it was found that adding less than 3% of dried Hizikia fusiformis powder is proper for dough in breadmaking.

This study investigated the effects of tangsuyuk batter ingredients on sensory. The optimal condition was evaluated by using RSM(response surface methodology). Five ingredients(wheat flour, corn starch, sodium bicarbonate, alum, water) were used as independent variables, coding 36 experimental trials. The resulting sensory scores(flavor, fracture, color, overall acceptability) were used as dependent variables. Each dependent variable showed significant differences(p<0.05). When the amount of sodium bicarbonate was increased, the sensory scores for flavor and fracture also increased. Sensory scores for color also increased when the amount of sodium bicarbonate was increased and the amount of alum decreased. Overall acceptability scored higher when the amount of sodium bicarbonate was increased. This is therefore indicates that sodium bicarbonate is likely a very important ingredient in the batter. The effects of each ingredient on sensory were thus investigated. The optimum ratios of wheat flour, corn starch, sodium bicarbonate, alum and water were predicted to be 27.55%, 19.34%, 0.27%, 0.19% and 52.65% respectively.
