We analyzed information provided by diet-related programs of comprehensive programming channels and the relationship between composition of professional panelists and quality of provided information. We selected 82 items among eight programs by MBN, JTBC, and TV chosun. All 82 items provided information about food & nutrition and health & disease, but only 32 items (39.0%) and 35 items (42.7%) provided information on food culture and food safety, respectively. Among the food ingredients, phytochemicals (81.7%) were the most frequently mentioned, and the contents of functional ingredients occupied a large part. The inappropriate information on programs were broadcast on an average of 1.2 episodes per program, and the most pointed out item was information that could confuse viewers with drugs (29.3%). Among the professional panelists, medical doctors (38.9%) and Oriental medicine doctors (16.6%) had the highest number of appearances, and professors of food & nutrition constituted only 7.1%. However, the increase in the number of appearances of professors showed a positive effect on the quality of program information. Contents focused on balanced nutrient intake and dietary culture of Korea should be increased rather than focusing on the function of each nutrient in comprehensive programming channels.

This study evaluated th physicochemical and sensory characteristics of teriyaki sauce added with bitter melon (Momoridaica charantia L.) roasting powder. Teriyaki sauce containing Momoridaica charantia L. roasting powder at concentration of 0% (control), 2% (RMT2), 4% (RMT4), 6% (RMT6), 8% (RMT8). Color of teriyaki sauce added with Momoridaica charantia L. roasting powder were lower than the control. The pH of the sauce ranged from $4.31{\pm}0.01{\sim}4.87{\pm}0.01$. As the amount of added Momoridaica charantia L. roasting powder was increased, total soluble solid content and viscosity of teriyaki sauce increased. DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities of Momoridaica charantia L. added teriyaki sauce increased. The sensory evaluation was performed with scoring test s for color, flavor, taste, bitter taste, and overall acceptability by 50 professional panelists. In sensory evaluation, teriyaki sauce added with 4% Momoridaica charantia L. roasting powder concentrate high score in sensory preference. Based on the results, 4% should be recommended as the optimum level of Momoridaica charantia L. roasting powder concentrate to be added for the preparation of teriyaki sauce.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the quality characteristics of tomato sauce, which is widely used in Western cuisine, according to tomato variety. The plum tomato sauce treatment had the highest pH at 4.13 while sauces made with Seo gwang and Young gwang tomatoes exhibited the lowest pH level of 4.07 (p<0.05). Sweetness was highest in the plum tomato sauce at $9.80^{\circ}$Brix. This might have been due to the fact that the plum tomato variety was the sweetest among the different tomatoes. There were no significant differences among the treatments in terms of reducing sugars, salinity, or viscosity. A color difference analysis indicated that redness (a-value) was highest in the plum tomato sauce, which contained a high level of lycopene. Sensory evaluations were performed by 15 professional panelists with scoring tests for color, flavor, taste, aftertaste, viscosity, and overall acceptability. The plum tomato sauce received the best scores in every evaluation, except for viscosity. These comparative results will support the development of better quality tomato sauce using plum tomatoes.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of dill on the quality characteristics of tomato sauce during 60 days of storage. As storage time increased, the pH stays between 4.10-4.22 on all additives. The lowest pH appeared on a 0% dill added sample during the storage period, except at 45 or 60 days of storage. The more dill was added, the less sugar appeared, and this was generally consistent across other samples. As storage times increased, the sugar content showed a tendency to decrease in all additives. Salinity turned out to be between 0.90-1.48 among all of the additives. For the L-value, the more dill was added, the less the L-value decreased, and this was consistent across all the samples. As the storage period increased, the L-value showed a tendency to decrease in all samples. The more dill was added, the more the a-value showed a tendency to decrease. The b-value showed a tendency to decline the more dill was added. Also, as storage time increased, the b-value decreased in all samples. Viscosity showed a tendency to increase in all samples the more dill was added. The reducing sugar content was kept between 44.83-55.38. A sensory evaluation was performed by 15 professional panelists with scoring tests for color, flavor, taste, aftertaste, viscosity, and overall acceptability. The tomato sauce with 2% dill showed the best score in the color, flavor, and overall acceptability. From the above results, the data suggests that an addition of 2% fresh dill to tomato sauce is recommended for commercial use.

The aim of this study is to investigate the effects of rosemary on the quality characteristics of tomato sauce during storage period(60days). As storage time went by, analysis of color differences of tomato sauce showed that "L", "a", "b"-value of tomato sauce less decreased with more herbs added, but there were no significant differences. As storage time went by, the pH ranged between 4.10-4.25, the sweetness between $10.50-9.67^{\circ}Brix$, and the salinity between 0.90~1.56 among all additions. Also, the more herbs were added, the more viscosity increased. The reducing sugar content ranged between 38.87-55.38, and its highest was shown in the sample with 0% of rosemary during the storage period. The sensory evaluation was performed with scoring tests for color, flavor, taste, aftertaste, viscosity, and overall acceptability by 15 professional panelists. The result showed that the tomato sauce with 1% rosemary was the best in the color, flavor, taste, aftertaste, and overall acceptability. From the above results, the study suggests that the addition of 1% fresh rosemary to tomato sauce is recommended for commercial use.
