This study was carried out to examine the sensory characteristics of Demi-glace sauce prepared by fresh basil with different amount of salt added. The evaluation of the sensory quality of Demi-glace sauce prepared by fresh basil was conducted by unexperienced and trained panel with regard to color, odor, taste, appearance, texture, viscosity, and overall acceptability while varying the quantity of salt added, the time of preparation, and the conditions of sauce offered in which each panel was supposed to evaluate both sauce itself and sauce with meat. It was found that Demi-glace sauce prepared by fresh basil with 0.3% salt added was gained the highest score from both panels in most properties and the second was the one with 0.1% salt added. In the sensory properties correlation analysis according to the time of preparation and the conditions of sauce offered, there was no significant correlation in most sensory properties for the unexperienced panel, except some significantly positive correlation between taste and overall acceptability of the sauce. Whereas there was a positive correlation in the majority of sensory properties for the trained panel regardless of the time of preparation and the conditions of sauce offered. The sauce with 0.3% salt added ranked as the best recipe by both panels among four different ratios of salt adding regardless of the time of preparation and the conditions of sauce offered. Triangle test showed that the sauce B with 0.1% salt added before the preparation was more highly appreciated in terms of taste than the sauce A with 0.1% salt added in the final step of preparation. In conclusion, it could be suggested that Demi-glace sauce prepared by fresh basil with 0.3% salt added is the best recipe for commercial products. Also, there seems to be the need of further sensory evaluation studies on the Demi-glace sauce according to the time of addition during the process of preparation.

To establish the roasting conditions of dandelion leaves for the manufacture of processed foods such as beverages and tea, we investigated the physicochemical and sensory characteristics of dandelion leaves and their hot water extracts by roasting treatment. As the number of roasting times increased, the free sugar content of the roasted dandelion leaves decreased, and in particular, free amino acid and total polyphenol content decreased greatly after only 1 roasting treatment. The amino nitrogen and total polyphenol contents of the roasted dandelion leaf hot water extracts also decreased greatly, and their L-, a-, and b-values showed much lower values than those of the raw leaf extracts. However, a greater amount of reducing sugars was extracted in the roasted leaves than in the raw leaves, suggesting that the roasting process allows for easier extraction of the compounds in dandelion leaves. Five sensory characteristics, including astringent taste, bitter taste, peen flavor, burnt taste, and sweet odor, were deduced through quantitative descriptive analysis of the hot water extracts. Among them, astringent taste, bitter taste, and green flavor showed significant differences between roasting treatments. The sensory evaluation results show that as the number of roasting times increased, the palatability of the hot water extracts increased greatly, in terms of color and taste.

The enzyme activity and organoleptic properties of Korean pickled cucumber were studies for their changes during fermentation. The Korean pickled cucumber were prepared by blanching and high temperature soaking in salt solution and trehalose treatment The results shelved that the effect of combined heat and trehalose treatment significantly reduced the fermentation rate and softening rate of texture while a rather rapid fermentation was for those pleserved with salt. The effect of trehalose treatment enhenced fermentation and it was significantly reduced softening rate of texture by 2% treatment. The sensory evaluation of Korean pickled cucumber was found that combined heat treatment with blanching and hot solution had a positive effect for reduction of softening of cucumber tissue, however, odor and taste were not significantly affected. This study suggested that combined heat and trehalose treatment might have potential for affording protection against softness of cucumber tissue during the fermentation time.

This study was carried out to investigate changes in the physicochemical and sensory characteristics of Oiji(Korean pickled cucumbers) prepared with different salts(bay, refined and purified salt). The pH of Oiji prepared with bay salt was higher than those prepared with refined and purified salts. The salt concentration of Oiji prepared with purified salt showed the highest value during fermentation period. The cutting forces at middle part of Oiji prepared with bay and refined salts were higher than those of raw cucumber, and bay salt resulted in the highest force during fermentation period. The result of sensory evaluation indicated significant differences in color, odor, taste, texture and overall acceptability among salts at 5% level. Oiji prepared with bay salt showed the highest score in most the sensory characteristics.

This study investigated the quality characteristics of Yanggaeng with different amounts (in ratios of 0, 1, 2, 4% to the total materials) of tumeric powders. The proximate composition and total polyphenol content, antioxidant activities, Hunter's color values, pH, Brix and sensory properties of tumeric hanging were examined. Results of analysis of the proximate composition analysis showed that ash content was increased significantly by adding turmeric powder and the more content of turmeric powder. The higher content of tumeric powder, the higher total polyphenol and total flavonoids contents. Brix and brightness were lowered and yellowness was increased. The sensory properties were highly rated for the control without turmeric powder in four organoleptic (sensory) properties (taste, texture, odor, acceptance) except color. The group with-1% addition of turmeric powder was highly rated in the second place.

This study examined the quality characteristics of Jeung-pyeon made with wet non-glutinous rice flour and rice wine. The samples of Jeung-pyeon were prepared with different ratios of cooked purple sweet potato (0, 3, 6, 9, and 12%) to analyze the water content, sugar content, pH, chromaticity, texture characteristics, and sensory evaluation. No significant difference in water content, sugar content, and springiness was observed among the 5 samples. The pH and volume showed the highest level at 0%. The L-value and b-value decreased while the a-value increased. The hardness, chewiness, and gumminess were highest at 9% and lowest at 12%. The extent of violet chromaticity and pore size were optimal in 9%. In addition, 9%-added purple sweet potato showed the highest score of odor, taste, texture, and overall acceptability. In conclusion, the optimal addition for the highest acceptability of cooked purple sweet potato was 9%.

The effects of charcoal powder on fermentation of dough and quality of bread were investigated. Charcoal powder was added to wheat flour at concentrations of 0, 0.05, 0.10 and 0.20% The fermentation time of dough with charcoal was reduced by 4 ~12 min compared with that of dough without charcoal. The loaf volume index of bread with 0.05% charcoal powder slightly increased. Bread with charcoal powder showed higher textural properties ( strength, hardness, springness, gumminess, and brittleness) except for cohesiveness than bread without charcoal powder. Color $L^{\ast}$ and $b^{\ast}$ values and hue angle of the top crust decreased while $a^{\ast}$ value increased with increasing charcoal concentrations. $L^{\ast}$ and $a^{\ast}$ values of the inside of bread decreased while hue angle increased with increasing charcoal concentrations. No significant difference in Pleasant taste between bread with and without charcoal powder was observed. However, bread with 0.1% charcoal powder showed the highest scores for pleasant odor, color, and overall acceptability.

Irradiated red pepper powder (IRPP) was tested for its ability to retard fermentation and to maintain a high quality of Kimchi by the reduction of the initial microbial load. Kimchi containing IRPP at the doses of 0, 5, 10, 15, or 20 kGy was prepared. Quality indices for Kimchi in this study were pH, titratable acidity, reducing sugar content, total microbial count, lactic acid bacterial load, and sensory evaluation. Based on the pH and titratable acidity, the Kimchi with IRPP showed a retarded fermentation until 15 days. The number of the total aerobes and lactic acid bacteria of the Kimchi with IRPP were lower by about 1 log CFU/mL compared to control at day 0, however, the counts increased to 8.5 log CFU/mL after 10 days, which was similar to the control group. Kimchi that was fermented with 5 kGy IRPP was better than control and other treatments in odor and color, whereas the control scored highest in taste. Addition of IRPP showed a limited retardation of Kimchi fermentation without other quality deterioration.

Over the years manufactures have become increasingly aware of the importance of water purity and its effect on the quality of the final product. One of the largest problems that confronts pure water system operators is bacterial recontamination shortly after the water purification equipment. There are several recommended methods of either preventing or recommended methods of either preventing or removing such contamination but most have inherent disadvantages. Drinking water has required new treatment techniques such as ozonation and granular activated carbon(GAC) filtration. Ozone is known to be a powerful oxidant and disinfectant. Therefore it has been found to be necessary for the treatment of taste, odor and color as an oxidant of inorganic and organic compounds.

The quality changes of the extracts of salt-fermented Ammodytes personatus during the storage were examined at 1 month interval during 3 months fermentation period. To prepare the extracts of Ammodytes personatus, 17%, 20% and 25% salt were added respectively and then stored for 3 months at room temperature and then extracted with hot water. During the storage, moisture and lipid contents of the samples decreased, but the crude protein contents increased gradually. On the other hand, ash content and pH showed little changes during the fermentation storage. After 6 months fermentation, the extracts of salt-fermented Ammodytes personatus were rich in free amino acids, such as glutamic acid, alanine, lysine, leucine, isoleucine, valine and aspartic acid in the order. As the fermentation progressed, the fish odor, turbidity, salty taste, savory flavor and overall preferences were similar to those of Ammotlytes personatus sauce in the market. The total cell numbers were 450∼570 cfu/mL at 0 day, but there were none revealed during the fermentation.
