This study was performed to optimize yanggaeng processing conditions prepared with different amounts of steamed Liriopis tuber (SLT) extract, sugar, and agar powder using response surface methodology. The experimental conditions were designed according to the central composite design with 16 experimental points, including two replicates for three independent variables. The experimental data on physicochemical properties, textural properties, and sensory evaluation were fitted to various models, and the accuracy of the equations was analyzed by ANOVA. Among the responses, pH, water content, sugar content, L-value, browning index, chewiness, gumminess, and sensory properties of appearance, color, sweetness, hardness, texture, and overall acceptability showed significant correlation with contents of SLT, sugar, and agar powder. From these results, optimum formulation of yanggaeng was calculated as follows: SLT 35 mL, sugar 55.23 g, and agar powder 3.39 g.

This study was performed to evaluate the effects of Liriopis tuber (SLT) extracts on cookie production conditions for reduction of sugar usage through response surface methodology (RSM). The experimental conditions were designed according to the central composite design with 17 experimental points, including three replicates for three independent variables such as the amounts of SLT extracts, butter, and sugar. The experimental data on quality and sensory evaluation of cookies were fitted with various models, and accuracy of the equations was analyzed by ANOVA. Among various responses, spread ratio, sugar content, lightness, redness, hardness, and sensory properties of color, texture, sweetness, appearance, and overall quality showed significant correlations with the contents of three independent variables. From these results, the optimum formulation of cookies for reduced usage of sugar was calculated as SLT extract 6.84 g, butter 47.20 g, and sugar 36.02 g. Optimized cookies showed improved sensory properties but no difference in sweetness compared to control cookies.
