The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of dietary fiber content of rice on the postprandial serum glucose and insulin responses in normal subject. Two rice varieties, Ilpum and Suwon 464 which are different in dietary fiber content, were cooked in pressure cooker and used for the test. The rice with a higher dietary fiber content gave a significantly lower glucose level (p<0.01) and insulin level (p<0.05) than did the normal rice variety. After a meal, the 60-min glucose levels of Suwon 464 and Ilpum were 90.3${\pm}$4.8mg/dl and 111.6${\pm}$2.7mg/dl, respectively. The glycemic index (GI) of Suwon 464 shows 64.5%, which was apparently lower than that of Ilpum. These results indicate that Suwon 464 high in dietary fiber can be useful in low-GI diets.

As a preliminary study for developing cooking techniques to improve cooked rice flavor, we surveyed consumer perceptions on purchasing rice and the consumption of cooked rice. The quantity of rice purchased by consumers was in the range of $1O{\sim}20$ kg. The purchase criterion for 50% of the subjects was the taste of the cooked rice, and half of the subjects bought their rice at a supermarket. A majority (90%) of the subjects consumed the rice within 1 to 4 months, storing it raw in the package (32.4%) or in a container at room temperature. The rice was cooked for 2 to 5 persons (65%), 1 to 2 times a day (70%) with a pressure cooker (76%). The rice and water volume were measured by eye. The cooked rice was eaten immediately (41.8%) or in 1 to 2 days (48.6%) by keeping it in an electric cooker (63.6%). The subjects perceived the rice cultivar (37.9%) as the major factor for the cooked rice flavor, as well as the region of origin (21.3%), and storage period (11.9%); the cultivars of Ilmi, Ilpoom and Chuchung were preferred. In conclusion, the consumers regard rice as a principal food; however, the methods to measure rice and water are not standardized. To improve the taste of cooked rice, consumers depend on cooking equipment and the rice cultivar.

This study evaluated the microbiological hazard of three Korean rice cake products (Gaepidduk, Injulmi, Julpyon). Microorganisms testing was conducted in various phases of the product flow of Korean rice cakes preparation, food equipment, environment work and cook employees at small scale. The results showed the presence of redbean paste, soybean powder and oil at levels as high as $10^5$ CFU/g on the hazard analysis of rice cakes ingredients. High levels of coliforms were detected in Julpyon products after 24 hr. and on the cooker's aprons. Clinical bacteria were not detected in any of the rice cakes. We concluded that there is a strong requirement for education related to personal hygiene for the production of hygienic rice cake products and for the publics health.

The purpose of this study was to analyse serving size, plate waste, and sensory evaluation on menu of university foodservice. This study was conducted in three restaurant of one university for 14 days, 1995. The serving size of food was measured by weighing machine. The plate waste of food was calculated by the aggregative selective plate waste measurement technique. Questionnaires of sensory evaluation were developed and hand-delivered at three restaurants. Rating criteria of sensory evaluation were appearance, taste, temperature, color, flavor, texture and overall quality. The plate waste of side dish were 35.5%, 42.5%, and 39.2% in A, B, and C restaurants. The plate waste of kimchi were 46.8%, 36.3%, and 55.9% in A, B, and C restaurants. So, university foodservice manager should concern quality of side dish and kimchi. The score of fried food in sensory evaluation was low. So, batch cooking was needed. The score of rice in sensory evaluation of C restaurants was very low. Therefore, steam ice cooker in C restaurants should be changed by gas automatic rice cooker.

Because of good taste and quick cooking, the induction heating type pressure rice cooker is widely used. Since pressure is applied to oven structure, it should be necessary to check the safety evaluation. In this paper, strain gauge experiment is performed in order to evaluate the oven's strain and its result is compared with that of structural analysis. And water test is performed to evaluate the oven's permanent deformation. The result is also compared with that of structural analysis. By using these experiments and analyses the safety evaluation method of the oven is suggested.

The purpose of this study was to provide the sensory profiles for cooked rice varieties, with 3 types of functional rice and 4 types of ready -to -eat rice, using descriptive analysis. Eighteen descriptors as well as reference standards were developed. The cooked functional rice, ready-to-eat rice, and plain cooked rice were separated into 4 groups by PCA. PC1 & PC2 explained 65% of the total valiance. PC 1 was responsible for the highest percentage of separation based on the texture intensities. The cooked functional rice showed higher intensity for hardness and roughness. The ready-to-eat rice A, B, and C samples had higher intensities in terms of moistness, glossiness, and moisture content, as well as sour and raw rice flavor. The ready-to-eat rice D sample had low grain wholesomeness, and high intensity for raw rice flavor. Finally, the plain cooked rice had more roasted and burnt rice flavor.

The qualities of rice cooked on heat plate, induction heat and heat plate with pressure, were investigated. The weight, volume, water soluble index (WSI), hydration by SEM (Scanning Electron Microscope), and gelatinization by DSC (Differential Scanning Calorimetry), as well as the consumer acceptability of cooked rice were analyzed. The weight, volume and WSI of rice cooked on heat plate with pressure were higher than those of rice cooked on heat plate and induction heat. The rice cooked on heat plate with pressure also showed higher degree of hydration and gelatinization, and lower degree of enthalpy of gelatinization than the rice cooked on heat plate and induction heat for 5~15 min. The consumer acceptability revealed that the odor, appearance, taste, texture and overall acceptance of rice cooked on induction heat were better than those of rice cooked on heat plate and heat plate with pressure. During storage in a cooker for 0~12 h, there was a decrease in the consumer acceptability of cooked rice. Overall results indicate that the qualities of rice cooked on induction heat and heat plate with pressure were higher than those of rice cooked on heat plate.

Attempts were made to improve gelatinization, saccharification and panfrying processes for mass production of Nochi, a kind of traditional Korean rice cake. Gelatinization of waxy rice powder with 20-55% of moisture content were completed within a minute at 120$^{\circ}C$ or above by using the extrusion cooker. Among enzymes tested for liquefaction and saccharification of the gelatinized rice, in place of malt, BAN (0.53%)+${\beta}$-amlyase (4.27%) was the most suitable enzymes for the production of Nochi. Panfrying process of Nochi was drastically shortened by heating Nochi dough for 1 minute in a microwave oven and subsequently panfrying at 150$^{\circ}C$ for 7 minutes.

To improve the quality of boiled rice after storage in rice cookers, temperature was controlled at a lowered condition ($45{\sim}65^{\circ}C$ repeated temperature cycling), compared to the present commercial rice cookers ($75^{\circ}C$). The effect of lowered temperature cycling on the microbial growth, color of rice, and reducing sugar production was measured. The bacteria Bacillus cereus and B. subtilis were killed at $75^{\circ}C$ and $45{\sim}65^{\circ}C$ cycling. The temperature cycling at $45{\sim}65^{\circ}C$ prevented an increase in colony forming unit of E. coli more than the steady temperature at $75^{\circ}C$. Browning during storage was significantly decreased at $45{\sim}65^{\circ}C$ cycling, compared to $75^{\circ}C$. The yellowness increase (${\Delta}b$ value of CIE parameters of the colorimeter) after the 3-day storage was 2.18 at $45{\sim}65^{\circ}C$ cycling whereas 9.12 at $75^{\circ}C$. Reducing sugar was not produced at $75^{\circ}C$ and $45{\sim}65^{\circ}C$ cycling but produced at $30^{\circ}C$ because of the microbial growth. In conclusion, the temperature cycling at $45{\sim}65^{\circ}C$ can improve the quality of stored boiled rice by decreasing the browning and inhibiting the microbial growth.
