In order to make use of Job's tears widely, Job's tears starch was analyzed and determinded the contents of amylose, amylographical and other physicochemical properties. And also the yeast breads and rice cakes were made from flour and rice flours with various mixing ratios of Job's tears flour and then they were tested for suitability to preparation of bread and rice cake. 1. The starch contents of Job's tears showed 12~20%. Which was about one third of rice or waxyrice starch. But amounts of crude proteins, fats, and total ashes in Job's tears were higher than rice or waxyrice. Job' tears starch was composed of amylopectins only, and was similar to that of waxyrice starch. 2. Depends upon the Amylogram of each starch, initial gelatinization temperature of Job's tears starch was the highest among three starches of rice, waxyrice, and Job's tears. Maximum viscosity of Job's tears starch was 860BU, then it was about two times of rice starch viscosity. 3. By the sensory evaluation results, the taste of bread prepared with mixing of 10% Job's tears flour was better than flour bread and the volume and grains of the bread made from mixing of 10%, 20% Job's tears flour were similar to that of flour bread, but the taste, volume and grains of bread made from 30% mixed flour were undesirable. The rice cake Prepared from mixed flour with 25% Job's tears flour has shown to be desirable.

The effect of steeping (0, 6, 12, 18, 24, 30 hours) waxy rice on initial firmness and the firming rate of waxy rice cake were studied. The firming rate was decreased by 11%, 15% and about 35% by steeping the waxy for 6hrs, 12hrs and 18hrs or longer, respectively.
