The effects of mugwort on some physicochemical properties of rice flour, on the viscosity of rice flour pastes (2 and 4%), on the hardness and the freeze-thaw stability of rice flour gels (20 and 40%), and on the degree of gelatinization (DG) of pastes and gels were investigated. By addition of mugwort, water holding capacity, swelling power, and solubility of rice flour were increased. The rice flour pastes became thicker by addition of mugwort, but viscosities of both the rice flour pastes and the rice flour-mugwort pastes, without noticeable difference between them, were decreased during storage at $25^{\circ}C\;and\;4^{\circ}C$ for 7 days. The rice flour gels became firmer by addition of mugwort and hardnesses of both the rice flour gels and the rice flour-mugwort gels were increased during storage, especially at $4^{\circ}C$. DGs, measured by glucoamylase digestion, of pastes and gels were decreased slightly during storage. Freeze-thaw stability of gels was not affected by addition of mugwort.

The textural characteristics of nonxaxy rice flour gels and rice cake(Injolmi) with different water contents and additives were evaluated after freezing and microwave heating. As moisture content of rice flour gels increased from 45% to 55%, its hardness and gumminess decreased, but adhesive and cohesiveness had no significant difference. Microwave heating did not markedly affect the texture but frozen storage was very effective to prevent the hardening of products. Hardness of reheated rice gels increased more rapidly in non-packaged sample than in PE wrap film and affected by storage time of 24hrs at 20$^{\circ}C$. As sugar content of rice flour gels increased from 0% to 10%, its hardness, adhesiveness, and gumminess decreased, while cohesiveness did not change.

The effect of mugwort powder on some physicochemical properties of rice flour, the viscosity of rice flour pastes and the degree of gelatinization of pastes and gels were investigated. By addition of mugwort, water binding capacity, swelling power, and solubility of rice flour were increased, also the viscosity and, the degree of gelatinization of rice flour pastes and gels were increased. Generally wet rice flour-mugwort pastes and gels were better than those of dry rice flour-mugwort. And viscosity and gelatinization of the rice-mugwort pastes and gels were decreased slightly during storage at $20^{\circ}C$ for 7 days.

To investigate effects of sugars on the retrogradation of rice flour gels, sucrose and isomaltooligosaccharide (1, 2, and 5%, w/w on the flour basis were added to 50% Dongjinbyeo rice flour gels and stored at different temperature $(20^{\circ}C,\;4^{\circ}C)$ far 1, 3 and 6 days. Changes on the degree of retrogradation (DR) of these rice flour gels were measured by α-amylase-iodine method, DSC and X-ray diffractometry. DRs of rice flour gels increased over storage and showed a rapid increase up to 3 days and then decreased thereafter. DRs of rice flour gels with sucrose or oligosaccharide also increased rapidly until 3 day storage but these values were lower than those of rice flour gels without sugar. DRs of rice flour gels with oligosaccharide were lower than those of gels with sucrose. Changes in enthalpy of rice flour gels measured by DSC showed the same tendency with those in DRs of rice flour gels by ${\alpha}-amylase-iodine$ method, but varied with sugar levels.

Effects of storage temperature on the retrogradation of 50% nonwaxy rice flour gels stored at $20^{\circ}C,\;4^{\circ}C\;and\;-18^{\circ}C$ for 6 days were investigated by ${\alpha}-amylase-iodine$ method, differential scanning calorimetry(DSC) and x-ray diffractometry. The retrogradation of gels increased with increasing storage time and the initial retrogradation rate was higher. The degree of retrogradation gels stored at different temperature increased as following order, $-18^{\circ}C>20^{\circ}C>4^{\circ}C$. The enthalpy of retrograded rice flour by DSC showed similar as the degree of retrogradation by ${\alpha}-amylase-iodine$ method, but the differences between storage temperatures were clear in using ${\alpha}-amylase-iodine$ method. X-ray diffraction patterns of gels stored at $4^{\circ}C\;and\;20^{\circ}C$ showed small peaks at $2{\theta}=17^{\circ}\;and\;20^{\circ}$, but the difference was not detected.

The degrees of retrogradation (DR) for 50% rice flour gels kept at $4^{\circ}C$ and $20^{\circ}C$ for the 6-day storage period at 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0% (w/w, on dry weight basis) levels of lipid additives (sucrose fatty acid ester, SE1670; soybean oil) were measured by ${\alpha}$-amylase-iodine method, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and X-ray diffractometry. The DRs were higher in rice flour gels stored at $4^{\circ}C$ than those stored at $20^{\circ}C$. The sucrose fatty acid ester and soybean oil reduced the retrogradation of rice flour gels, but the effect was higher in samples stored for 1 day. The DR decreased more effectively in the addition of SE1670 than that of soybean oil In case of SE1670, the change of enthalpy by DSC showed similar patterns with the degree of retrogradation by ${\alpha}$-amylase method; however, it was not the case for soybean oil. The intensity of peak at $2{\theta}=16.7^{\circ}$ in X-ray diffraction pattern was reduced with lipid additives but it was not clear.

The textural characteristics of mungbean flour gels and mungbean cake(Bindaedduk) were investigated in steam and microwave reheating condition after 20$^{\circ}C$, 5$^{\circ}C$ and -18$^{\circ}C$ storage. The hardness of mungbean flour gels were 2.36 kg in microwave reheating and 3.59 kg in steam reheating after 6 days frozen storage, respectively and its gumminess were increased after reheating. The hardness of mungbean flour gels did not significantly change with the storage temperature. The textural characteristics of mungbean cake made with 2 parts of mungbean flour and 1/2∼1/8 parts of nonwaxy rice flour had the similar values in spite of the different compositions. Microwave reheated mungbean flour gels had the different hardness values of 4.13 kg in non package and 1.70 kg in polyethylene film wrap after 24 hours storage at 20$^{\circ}C$. In sensory evaluation mungbean flour gels showed the high scores in hardness and the unpleasant flavor after reheating but mungbean cake of different compositions showed the good sensory qualities.

Properties of dry milled rice flours made of paddy with different moisture content (12.6, 18.4 and 24.4%) were compared with those of wet milled rice flour. Among dry milled rice flour, the higher moisture content of paddy the finer particle size and the more distinct shape of starch were observed. As the moisture content of paddy increased, L (lightness) value and water absorption index of rice flour were increased, while setback in amylogram and water soluble index were decreased. Lower gel consistency and gel strength were found in dry milled rice flours than in wet milled rice flour, while no significant difference was found among dry milled rice flours. Enthalpy for melting crystalline of retrograded gels was higher in dry milled rice flours made of paddy with 24.4% moisture content than in other dry milled rice flours. Wet milled rice flour had lower retrogradation enthalphy than dry milled rice flours.

The effect of varietal differences of rice starches by amylose content and gel consistency on the retrogradation behavior was studied. The gel consistency test, which is designed to detect differences in the texture of cooked rice of varieties that have a similar amylose content, had been turned out to be useful in this study. Both Suwon 232 and San Li Cun had higher amylose content, but were greatly different in gel consistency values. The results showed that setback viscosity of rice flour measured in a Brabender amylograph was significantly affected by amylose content as well as gel consistency. Increase in the rigidity modulus (E) of rice starch gels during storage determined by using Texture analyzer indicated that amylose content was an important factor in terms of hardness development The study of Avrami kinetics of retrogradation showed that time constant of rice starch gels was influenced by amylose content, but not by gel consistency.

The effect of varietal differences of rice starches by amylose content and gel consistency on the retrogradation behavior was studied. Setback viscosity of rice flour measured in a Brabender amylograph was significantly affected by amylose content as well as gel consistency. Increase in the rigidity modulus (E) of rice starch gels during storage determined by using texture analyzer indicated that amylose content was an important factor in terms of hardness increase. Kinetics of retrogradation showed that time constant of rice starch gels was influenced by amylose content, but not by gel consistency.
