The effects of ${\alpha}-rice$ flour on the physicochemical properties of Korean rice cake were investigated. Before cooking, the degree of gelatinization of rice cake without ${\alpha}-rice$ flour was 5.75%, but 16% for adding ${\alpha}-rice$ flour. After cooking, the degree of gelatinization of rice cake were increased from 52% to 85% by adding ${\alpha}-rice$ flour. The L value of rice cake with ${\alpha}-rice$ flour increased, but there was no significant difference in L value between samples. The hardness of rice cake before and after cooking were increased by adding ${\alpha}-rice$ flour whereas after frozen stoarge there was no apparent effect on the color values of rice cake. The water absorption ratio of rice cakes during cooking were increased by addition of ${\alpha}-rice$ flour. Scanning electron photomicrographs revealed that the rice cake with ${\alpha}-rice$ flour has more porous structure with rapid rehydration.

The purpose of this research is to understand features of the present condition of green tea food by analyzing the data on tea foods presented in Korean literature after the 1990's (two articles from professional journals related to tea culture, and three books related to tea food). The main conclusions are as follows: 1. It is found from separating 354 different kinds of green tea foods into three categories - main dishes, side dishes and desserts - that there are 137 kinds of side dishes, 123 kinds of desserts, and 94 kinds of main dishes from green tea foods. Upon dividing these into smaller categories, there are 40 rice dishes, 27 noodle dishes, 18 gruel dishes and 9 dumpling dishes found among the main dishes; 26 pan fried dishes, 24 potherb/cooked potherbs dishes, 17 deep-fried dishes, 15 soup/broth dishes, 14 grilled dishes, 11 smothered dishes, 10 hard -boiled/fried dishes, 6 kimchi dishes, 4 dried food dishes, 4 jelly dishes, 4 stew dishes, and 2 raw fish dishes among the side dishes; and 37 snack dishes, 36 punch/drink dishes, 26 rice cake dishes, and 24 bread dishes are found among the desserts. 2. There are 201 kinds of green tea foods using powders, 107 kinds using wet tea leaves, 61 kinds using dry tea leaves, 57 kinds using water of drawn tea, and 17 kinds using wild tea leaves, according to analysis of teas used for green tea foods. There is more use of powder for snacks, punch and drinks, rice cakes, noodles, and breads, and more use of wet tea leaves for rice, pan fried food, and potherb/cooked potherb dishes. It is also shown that there is more use of water from drawn tea for rice, punch and drinks, noodles, and gruels, more use of dry tea leaves for snack, rice, breads, and more use of wild tea leaves for deep-fried and pan fried kinds of tea foods.

The effect of treatments with alcohol, chitosan, or with both alcohol and chitosan for extending the shelf-life of Korean white rice cake and wet noodle was investigated by measuring quality changes such as total microbial count, pH, and sensory qualities. Total microbial counts for control, alcohol-treated, and 1% lactic acid-treated white rice cakes exceeded the initial putrefactive criterion level of $1{\times}10^{6}\;CFU/g$ at 6, 27 and 20 days of storage, respectively. However, total microbial count of the white rice cake treated with chitosan was still less than the criterion level even at 76 days of storage. In the case of wet noodle, total microbial counts of control and alcohol-treated groups exceeded the criterion level within 7 days of storage, while that of chitosan-treated group was far less than the criterion level even at the end of storage of 82 days. Chitosan treatment extended the shelf-lives of both white rice cake and wet noodle appreciably.

This study, observing each respectively packaged Kongdduk during 12-day storing period and comparing it with unpackaged Kongdduk, through a cross-sectional view of its fiber and temperament, through a sensory evaluation rheometer measurement of rheological change depending on storing period and packaging type and through the organic acid content, micro-organic change, and retrogressive process. The results are as follows: 1. Kongdduk made of bean oil shows better chewiness, cohesiveness, and moistness than Kongdduk made of bean flour while Kongdduk made of bean flour shows better rheological properties as to roasted nutty taste or roasted nutty order. 2. The test of the cutted loaves of Kongdduk shows that adding oil of proper proportion to the dough of steamed rice cake in accordance with the amount of rice flour has a good influence on rheological properties of softness. 3. Rice cakes were prepared by addition of yellow soybean flour or peanut flour and packaged with CMP or VP, and their physical characteristics were monitored by sensory evaluation and mechanical measurement while storing for 6 days. For VP samples, yellow soybean rice cake showed little changes in cohesiveness, moistness and chewiness for 6 days of storage, while pure rice cake and peanut rice cake showed an increase in strength and hardness from the 4th day of storage. In case of CMP, yellow soybean rice cake hardly showed a difference in cohesiveness, moistness and chewiness for 6 days, while pure rice cake and peanut rice cake showed a significant difference from the 4th day in sensory evaluation. 4. For rheometer measurement, yellow soybean rice cake with CMP or VP showed little changes in strength or hardness for 6 days, while peanut rice cake and pure rice cake showed a drastic decrease in cohesiveness, from the End day and adhesiveness from the 4th day of storage. As there was no remarkable difference or deterioration for 6 days of storage in yellow soybean rice cake between CMP and VP, the ingredients of rice cakeappeared to be more important than the type of packaging in terms of quality deterioration of rice cake. 5. As the storing period passed by, organic acid is detected less at CMP-packaged Knngdduk than at wrapped. and its increasing speed proves to be slower as well. 6. The one wrapped with plyethylene film began to get moldy from pure rice cake or Kongdduk (rice cake mixed with yellow soybean or peanut) after 6 days, and more and more modly after 9 daysor after 12 days, but the CMP-packaged ones didn't get modly until 12 days or more. 7. CMP-packaged Kongdduk showed higher enthalpy of retrogradation than PE-wrapped one. As storing Period Passed by, Kongdduk,s enthalpy grew high. That is to say, it shows that Kongdduk got retrograded.

Objective : Jeol-sik, (festive seasons every 15 days based on sun cycle), refers to both Korean Traditional Festival food(jeol-sik), intertwined between months, and in-season meals(si-jeol-sik) in which the ingredients used are produced in each and one of the four season. I found that ingredients in Si-jeol-sik of Autumn are helpful for strengthening one's life force. Method : The study found that si-jeol sik for fall season has strong characteristic of casting out demons. When making songpyeon(half-moon-shaped rice cake) for Chuseok (Korean Thanksgiviing Day), they are steamed with pine needs spreaded underneath because pine needles are believed to have power in casting away evil spirits. For harvest ceremony, which were frequently held in October, people consumed steamed rice cakes garnished with red beans, which were considered to negate bad fortunes. Result : To prevent respiratory diseases caught esaily in fall due to wide daily temperature difference and dry weather, white good ingredients such as radish, pear, and taro are used. Conclusion : Main fall holidays are Chil-soek, Baek-Jung, Chu-seok. The best feature of Si-jeol-sik for fall season is that they cast out demons.
