Korean wheat semolina (FS: fine semolina) with similar characteristics to durum wheat semolina was substituted at rates of 0, 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50% in pasta dough and the physical and cooking characteristics were investigated for making optimal pasta. Water absorption of the dough increased with the 10, 20, and 30% substitution ratio of FS. Development times were high with >30% substituted FS. This result positively influenced an increase in production and the preparation of the fresh noodle pasta. Furthermore, soft textured fresh noodles could be made due to the decrease in stability and increased weakness of the >30% substituted FS. The amylograph gelatinization characteristics of Korean wheat semolina exhibited an increase of gelatinization temperature and decrease of maximum viscosity when compared with durum wheat. The handling property of the dough showed more than 4 points in all sample groups. Weight and volume decreased and turbidity and cooking loss increased according to the increasing amount of substituted FS. However, samples with ${\leq}$ 30% FS substitution ratio had similar volumes and cooking losses when compared to the control. The L- and a-values increased and the b-value of color decreased as more FS was added. In a texture analysis, the hardness of the cooking noodles showed a low value with the >30% substituted FS. Springiness, gumminess, and chewiness exhibited a high value. In the results of a sensory evaluation, overall acceptability was high score with more than 7 points for the 30% added FS. The preferences for pasta colors were divided into white, which is similar to the Korean traditional noodle, and yellow, which is similar to durum wheat. Flavor and taste were not affected by substituting with FS. Low hardness and high chewiness was the most preferred noodle. These results suggest that >30% substituted FS was suitable for increasing quality and organoleptic qualities of Korean wheat pasta.

Forty-five Najdi ram lambs were equally and randomly allotted to five dietary groups with three replications per diet to evaluate the effect of feeding olive cake in complete diet on nutrient digestibility, growth performance and carcass characteristics. The diets were: a whole-mixed control diet (C) containing 12% wheat straw and four diets; namely O, ON, OU and OUE, where crude olive cake, 3% NaOH-treated olive cake, 5% urea-treated olive cake (U) and ensiled U, respectively were incorporated to replace the wheat straw of C diet. The results showed that the digestibility of DM, CP, EE and NFE and TDN were higher (p<0.05) in OUE diet as compared to the control diet; there were no changes (p>0.05) in the corresponding values between O, ON and OU diets. The nutrient digestibilities, body weight gain, feed efficiency and Longissimus area were significantly (p<0.05) lower in ON diet as compared to other experimental diets. Average daily DM intake and weight gain were higher (p<0.05) in lambs fed O, OU and OUE diets than those fed C diet. The moisture and protein contents in the soft tissue from ON treatment were lower (p<0.05) than those tissues from C, O, OU and OUE treatments. In conclusion, these results indicated that crude olive cake is a better substitute of wheat straw when fed to growing lambs.

The protein contents of soy protein isolate (SPI) and soft wheat flours were 83.5% and 8.5%, respectively. The addition of SPI increased the protein content but decreased the sedimentation value. Alkaline water retention capacity (AWRC) value increased with SPI addition and was highly correlated with protein content. Increasing SPI flour content significantly decreased the maximum, minimum and final viscosities. Mixograph peak time was positively correlated with protein content and AWRC. The PH and specific gravity of the cake batter increased with increasing SPI content. The SPI addition reduced the loaf and specific loaf volume compared with soft wheat flour. The lightness of the cake crust decreased, while the redness and yellowness increased, with SPI flour addition. SPI addition resulted in a decrease of overall acceptability, but an increase in hardness.

This study investigated the effects of the mixing ratio of tofu paste and normal corn starch on the characteristics of gluten-free (GF) muffins. Soft wheat flour for wheat flour-based muffins (control) was replaced with the mixture of tofu paste and normal corn starch (NCS). The mixing ratios of tofu paste and NCS were 1:6.4 (S100), 1:5.1 (S80), 1:3.8 (S60), 1:2.6 (S40), 1:1.3 (S20), and 1:0 (S00), based on their total solid contents. GF muffins of S40-S100 developed the porous, sponge-like structure without crumb collapse. The weight and baking loss did not significantly differ in the control and GF muffins. By decreasing NCS in GF muffin batters, the moisture content, firmness, and crumb redness/yellowness of GF muffins increased, while their volume, specific volume, and crumb lightness decreased. Nevertheless, these characteristics (except for firmness) of S100 were much closer to those of the control. In the preference test, however, S60 (possessing lower attributes than S100 and S80) was most favored among GF muffins, and was very similar in all evaluations (except for appearance) to the control. Overall, the mixture of tofu paste and NCS would be a potential material to replace soft wheat flour in muffins.

In this study, samples of wheat flour and dough were prepared by adding of 1, 3, or 5% branched dextrin, which is produced from the amylopectin of waxy corn starch using a cyclization reaction with a branching enzyme. The samples were then evaluated qualitatively in terms of farinogram, viscogram, and extensogram characteristics. The fermentation power of dough expansion, extensogram characteristics, specific volume, baking loss, external/internal surface appearance, and sensory qualities were also examined after 4 weeks of storage at -20$^{\circ}C$ to determine the effect on freeze-thaw stability and quality improvement of branched dextrins in the soft roll bread formulation. Furthermore, the samples along with a control were compared regarding their quality characteristics, including changes in moisture content, water activity, color, and textural characteristics during a storage period of 4 days at 20$^{\circ}C$ to determine the effect on preventing retrogradation of the branched dextrin. As the branched dextrin content increased, area and extensibility increased, whereas water absorption, fermentation power of dough expansion, resistance/extensibility ratio, baking loss, and brownness of the crust decreased. However, the control group presented significantly higher peak viscosity, resistance, specific volume, taste, overall acceptability, moisture content, water activity, springiness, cohesiveness, and resilience values than those of the branched dextrin samples, whereas lightness, hardness, and chewiness showed the reverse effect. As the storage period increased, lightness, hardness, and chewiness increased, whereas cohesiveness decreased. In conclusion, the results indicate that adding 1~3% branched dextrin into a soft roll bread formulation from frozen dough had no positive effect on freeze-thaw stability or preventing retrogradation but may provide good nutritional properties.

Flour characteristics of 26 Korean wheat cultivars (KWC) were evaluated to assess consumer satisfaction with 6 imported wheat and 5 commercial wheat flours. In physical characteristics of flours, Particle size of SW (soft white) was similar to Dahong, Geuru, Milsung, Olgeuru, Seodun, Tapdong, and Uri. DNS (dark northern spring) was similar to Jeokjoong, Joeun, Sukang, and Younbaek. Ash and damaged starch content of KWC was similar to that of imported wheat and commercial flour (Com), but lightness value ($L^*$) were lower than those of Com. Particle size of flour positively correlated with ash, damaged starch, and lightness value ($L^*$) of flour. L ($^*$) value of flour negatively correlated with ash, damaged starch, and particle size of flour. In protein characteristics, Protein content of SW and commercial flour for baking cookie (Com5) was similar to Baekjoong, Jinpoom, Milsung, Olgeuru, Saeol, and Uri. HRW (hard red winter) and commercial flour for baking bread (Com3) was similar to Hanbaek, Joeun, Jopoom, Keumkang, and Sukang. SDS sedimentation volume based on a constant flour weight (SDSS) of KWC was lower than those of DNS and Com3. Mixograph water absorption of KWC similar to imported wheat and Com. Mixing time and maximum dough height (Hm) of KWC were higher than those of imported wheat and Com. Protein content positively correlated with SDS sedimentation volume and water absorption of mixograph. SDS-sedimentation volume positively correlated with water absorption of mixograph, mixing time of mixograph, and height of dough development. In starch characteristics of flour, ASW (Australian standard white) flours showed lower amylose content, higher peak viscosity, breakdown, and setback in pasting properties than other flours. KWV flours showed higher amylose content and lower peak viscosity than those of AH (Australian hard), ASW, commercial flour for making white salted noodles (Com1), commercial flour for making yellow alkaline noodles (Com2), and Com3.

To investigate selection efficiency for protein content and hardness in a wheat breeding program, two crosses were made between soft wheat (SW) ‘Chokwang’ and hard wheat (HW) ‘Lancota’, and between HW ‘Suwon 210’ and SW ‘Atlas 66’. F2 progeny lines from the crosses were separated into 4 groups as HW + high protein (HP), HW + low protein (LP), SW + HP and SW + LP by measuring protein content and sedimentation value in F4 generation. The subsequent populations were tested for protein content, sedimentation value, mixogram pattern and bread quality. HP group selected from F4 again had a higher protein content in F5 generation than LP group, but there was no significant difference between two groups in F6 generation. In sedimentation value, the significant difference was recognizable only between the groups of HW + HP and. SW + LP. Plant based investigation in F6 revealed that the distribution pattern for protein content and sedimentation value shifted from the low to high by the four groups with the order of SW + LP, HW + LP, SW + HP, HW + HP. Such a trend was most noticeable in the progenies of the cross between ‘Suwon 210’ and ‘Atlas 66’. Mixogram pattern that shows flour characteristics differed greatly among the groups, indicating a high selection efficiency for the traits. Bread volume in F6 of HW + HP was found to be higher than that of SW + LP, only from the cross between ‘Suwon 210’ and ‘Atlas 66’.

The purpose of this study is to determine potential effectiveness of sourdough starter powder (made of Korean wheat flour) in the quality characteristics of bread and in the substitution effect of a dough improver in bread baking. The bread containing sourdough starter powder was considered to be most suitable for making sourdough bread. As a result, SP 10 showed the best fermentation rate and the highest volume and specific volume. In sensory testing, SP 10 was most preferable among others. According to experimental comparison between optimal addition ratio of SP 10 and other sourdough starter powder products available in Korean domestic market, SI had the highest fermentation rate, highest volume and specific volume. Analysis of texture showed that SI was soft with the lowest hardness and the highest elasticity. Sensory test showed that SI was most preferable of all, and SP 10 was more preferable than BP. It was concluded that SP 10 was not less preferable in the aspect of preference at sensory test than other products. Hence, it is expected that sourdough starter powder made of Korean wheat flour will be possibly more popular and effective in replacing some portion of dough improver of baking.

Wheat is widely used in food industry because of its low price, convenience, protein-rich resource, easy processibility, and so on. However, people who have wheat-gluten allergy need gluten-free products. Especially, gluten-free products are desirable to early childhood even though they may or may not be sensitive to wheat-gluten. As the alternative of wheat flour, recently, rice flour is gaining popularity. Hence, we developed the puffed rice snack for the baby. In order to prepare for rice extrudate, 1 kg rice flour, 450 g water, and 6 g salt were mixed together and then steamed for 1 hr. The rice extrudate was shredded into pieces (0.5 cm${\times}$0.5 cm) and dried up to 4.5% moisture content. The dried rice shreds were puffed at $257^{\circ}C$ in a puffing machine. The puffed rice snack was oval-shaped having thickness of 0.5 cm, white in color with brown flakes. Appearance and texture of the puffed rice snacks were evaluated by the measurement of the texture, isothermal water absorption, expansion, and the color. Puffed rice was more porous, because rice increased up to about two times larger than its original volume. Texture of the rice puffing snack was suitable for early childhood. Rice puffing snack showed potentials including soft, low-allergenic, and easily digestible properties. It is concluded that rice puffing snack has potential in the food markets for early childhood.

The purpose of this study was to develop a recipe for high quality Yackwa (fried cake made of wheat flour) by adjusting the mixing ratio of flours, frying temperature and time. Yackwas were prepared by using 3 kinds of flour mix (3：7, 4：6, and 2：8 of weak to medium ratio), fried at various temperatures and times, and evaluated by mechanical characteristics and sensory evaluation. It was found that Yackwa prepared with 3：7 mixing ratio of flour and fried at 160$^{\circ}C$ for 9 min was most preferred. Yackwas with the same flour mixing ratio and fried at 150-155$^{\circ}C$ for 12∼16 min were also within the range of acceptance. The characteristics of desirable Yackwa were suggested to be soft, crispy, and to have little taste of oil.
