This study was performed to evaluate the quality characteristics of yanggeng prepared with different amounts of Rehmanniae radix Preparata (RRP) concentrate. Moisture, acidity, soluble solids, and reducing sugar contents of the control were the lowest, followed in order by the 3%, 6%, and 9% RRP addition. The pH of 9% RRP added yanggeng was the lowest, followed in order by the 6% and 3% additions. The lightness value of the Hunter color system decreased based on the amount of RRP concentrate added to yanggeng. In the texture analysis, the hardness and cohesiveness of the 9% RRP added yanggeng were the highest among the treatments. Total phenol content was the highest in 9% RRP added yanggeng. Antioxidant activities such as DPPH radical scavenging activity and hydroxyl radical scavenging activity, were the highest in the 9% RRP added yanggeng. In the sensory evaluation for yanggeng, the sensory scores for overall preference and texture were the highest in the 6% RRP added yanggeng The result was suggested that the optimum amount of RRP concentrate to add to yanggeng was 6%.

The objective of this study was to investigate the quality characteristics of Baeksulgi (BS) and Sulgidduk added with Makgeolli (MS, BS+ Makgeolli) during storage at $20{\pm}2$ for 3 days. Moisture contents of MS were significantly higher than those of BS during storage. Reducing sugar contents (%) were higher in MS. The pH values were 6.23 and 5.93, for BS and MS, respectively. The pH of MS was lower and thus indicated higher in acidity. The Hunter color L (lightness) and a (redness) values were higher for BS, whereas b (yellowness) value of MS was lower. In the texture analysis, hardness and chewiness of MS were found to be lower, whereas springiness, gumminess, and resilience were higher than those of MS. According to DSC (Differential scanning calorimeter) analysis, enthalpy of MS appeared to be lower than that of BS during storage, which suggests retrogradation of MS was delayed. The total phenol content was higher in MS. The $IC_{50}$ value of DPPH and hydroxyl radical scavenging activity was lower in MS, which means antioxidant activity increased in MS. Results of the preference test showed that appearance, flavor, taste, and overall acceptability of MS scored higher than those of BS. From these results, high quality of MS was derived from Makgeolli addition.

Kunrak, a type of Korea traditional cheese, is made using Tarak, a yogurt produced with makgeolli as the fermentation source. Kunrak is produced by removing whey from Tarak, followed by drying process for safe storage and consumption over a longer period. In this study, we produced kunrak based on the method described in "Imwonsibyukji". Prepared Kunrak was ripening for 96 hours at 20, 30, and $40^{\circ}C$. In order to study characteristics of Kunrak, physiochemical properties (pH, acidity, water contents) and contents of metabolites (organic acids, sugars, amino acids, and fatty acids) were analyzed. During ripening, water contents decreased. The main organic acids in Kunrak were citric acid and lactic acid, and the main free sugar was lactose. Main amino acids were glutamate and phenylalanine, and main fatty acid was saturated capric acid. At later ripening, all metabolites increased immediately after preparation. The sensory evaluation score of overall preference was highest for Kunrak, which was ripening at $40^{\circ}C$ for 96 hours. This study was aimed to assay metabolites of Kunrak under various ripening conditions. The results provide basic data to produce conditions for standardized manufacturing of Kunrak.

The purposes of this study were to evaluate the quality characteristics and antioxidant activities of Sulgidduk added with almond powder (0, 6, 12, or 15%). As the amount of almond powder increased, soluble solid content ($^{\circ}Brix$) and reducing sugar content (%) decreased, whereas pH and acidity were unchanged. The L (lightness) value in the Hunter color system of Sulgidduk added with almond powder decreased, whereas a (redness) and b (yellowness) values increased. Total phenolic content of Sulgidduk increased according to the amount of almond powder. The antioxidant activities, including 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl and hydroxy radical scavenging activities, increased in Sulgidduk with almond powder compared with that of the control. It is concluded that Sulgidduk with almond powder may be of high quality with antioxidant activity. In the sensory test, Sulgidduk added with 12% almond powder showed the highest score in terms of overall preference.

Preparative conditions and characteristics of six-vegetable and fruit juice were studied for the effects of mixing ratio, heat treatment and addition of sugar, salt and organic acid. The vegetables and fruit used were carrot(Ct), cabbage(Cg), pear(Pr), cucumber(Cr), celery(Cy) and dongchimi(Di). From the sensory results of mixing ratio of three of binary mixtures of Cg-Pr(1:3):Ct-Di(1:4):Cr-Cy(3:1), two ratios of 5.0:2.5:2.5(V-6A) and 6.0:2.0:2.0(V-6B) were suggested optimal for six-vegetable and fruit juice. Addition of 2% sucrose and 0.3% NaCl improved the preference significantly. The pH 4.0 for V-6A and pH 3.5 for V-6B were more prefered when pH was adjusted by citric acid. Heating the juice at $100^{\circ}C$ for 100 minutes slightly decreased pH and increased the acidity. Total solids and viscosity were also decreased by heating. All of those changes were more significant in V-6B than V-6A, probably due to lower pH. Heating the juice resulted in a slight decrease in L value and an increase in a and b values. Heating at $100^{\circ}C$ caused an increase in moldy flavor and a decrease in fresh vegetable flavor while heating at $80^{\circ}C$ for 20 minutes changed them little.

The quality attributes of coffee treated with different concentrations of white ginseng extract were examined. Increased concentration of white ginseng extract was associated with higher color values (Hunter L. a, b scale). The crude saponin contents of untreated roasted coffee beans (control) and those coated with $5^{\circ}$ Brix (WGC-1) and $20^{\circ}$ Brix white ginseng extract (WGC-2) were 8.29%, 8.74%, and 8.93%, respectively. The total ginsenoside contents of WGC-1 and WGC-2 were 0.3 mg/g and 0.6 mg/g, respectively. In the case of major ginsenosides, the contents of ginsenosides $Rg_1,\;Rg_2,\;Rb_1,\;Rb_2,\;Rg_2,\;Rh_1$, and $Rg_3$ increased directly with the concentration of white ginseng extract. Total sugar and acidic polysaccharide contents also increased directly with the concentration of white ginseng extract. The coffee beans coated with ginseng extract scored significantly higher ginseng taste scores than the control (p<0.005) in sensory evaluation. In terms of coffee taste, WGC-2 had significantly lower scores than the commercial coffee bean. In the consumer sensory evaluation, overall preference did not differ significantly among the treatments.

This study is conducted to find out the appropriate preparing method and fermenting condition through analysis of physicochemical, microbiological, sensory evaluation of Myungtae sikhae, Korean fermented fishery food which was prepared in simplified and conventional methods. During the fermentation of sikhae at 4℃, pH was decreased gradually, but acidity was increased and salinity was steady state. In this aspect, no significant difference was revealed between sikhae prepared in simplified and conventional methods. Under fermentation at 20℃ and kept at 4℃, pH was decreased to 4.6～4.9 for 15～20 days fermentation with steady state of salinity. However, acidity was changed in conversely. The content of reducing sugar with rapidly decreasing in the beginning of fermentation was continually decreased. The propagation of microorganism in th sikhae depends on the fermentation temperature rather than the preparing methods. Generally low propagation of microorganism began to increase gradually in the sikhae fermented at 4℃ comparing to that fermented at 20℃. In the sikhae fermented at 20℃ and kept at 4℃, the total count including lactic acid bacteria, was rapidly increased after 5 days' fermentation of sikhae is dominated by Lactobacillus sp. and the unique flavor and organic acid were contributed by this flora with Leuconostoc. sp. By the sensory evaluation, the best flavor was revealed in the sikhae, prepared in simplified method fermented for 30 days at 4℃. Until 20 days, sikhae fermented at 20℃ revealed higher score than fermented at 4℃. General preference for the sikhae fermented at 4℃ for 15 days prepared by simplified method and those fermented at 20℃ for 10 days. The sikhae, fermented at 4℃, showed less difference between preparing methods and preferable acceptability after being 25 days. The best acceptability of sikhae fermented at 20℃ showed after 15～25 days. In the final conclusion, the appropriate preparing method of sikhae is to use frozen Alaska pollack with simplified method and fermented at 20℃ for 5 days and then kept at 4℃.

This study investigated the proximate composition, sweetness, color, texture, and sensory properties of baked Gangjung prepared using different coating syrups (maltose syrup, oligosaccharide, rice syrup, and maltitol syrup). The crude protein content was 3.22~3.28% in baked Gangjung prepared with maltose syrup, oligosaccharide, or rice syrup, while that prepared using maltitol syrup had 2.61%. Crude ash was the highest when rice syrup was used (1.08%), and the lowest when maltose syrup or oligosaccharide was used (0.64% and 0.68%, respectively). The sweetness of the baked Gangjung was the highest in the rice syrup group, at $70.07^{\circ}Brix$, and lowest in the maltose syrup group, at $33.5^{\circ}Brix$ (p<0.05). The hardness of the Gangjung prepared with the different coating syrups was the highest for the grain syrup (1.42), followed by the oligosaccharide group at 0.96, maltose syrup (0.40), and maltitol syrup (0.35) (p<0.05). The number of peaks and the indirect measure of crispness also showed the highest values for the rice syrup group (p<0.05), but there was no significant difference among the values in the other groups. Lightness was in the range of 63.26~73.04 depending on the coating syrup, decreasing from the oligosaccharide to the maltitol, rice syrup, and then to the maltose syrup group (p<0.05). The a-value was the highest for the maltose and rice syrup groups at 10.69 and 10.38, respectively (p<0.05), and the b-value showed the same trend. Baked Gangjung showed the highest scores for color, flavor, and overall preference when prepared using maltitol syrup.
