In the present study, we investigated the physicochemical characteristics and sensory qualities of gruel with added ground yam (20~80%) to increase consumption and application of yams. pH and sugar content of sample gruel decreased with increasing yam content, whereas spreadability increased gradually. Lightness and greenness decreased; however, blueness increased as yam content increased. Viscosity decreased with increasing yam content. Gruel with 40% added yam was the most preferred for flavor, taste, texture, and overall preference. From these results, we found that adding 40% yam was the best to make gruel with high sensory quality.

Steamed rice is usually used as an essential ingredient when Takju or Yakju is brewed in Korea. Alternatively, non-steamed rice can be used to keep thermolabile nutrients and fresh tastes richer in Takju or Yakju. In this study, therefore, the physicochemical properties (ethanol and sugar contents, pH, total acidities, and turbidities)and the fermentative microbial profiles (aerobic mesophillic bacteria (AMB), fungi, lactic acid bacteria (LAB), acetic acid bacteria (AAB), and Escherichia coli and coliforms) have been compared among 4 Takju and 1 Yakju samples brewed using steamed or non-steamed rice. Yakju brewed using non-steamed rice has approximately 2-3 times higher ethanol and sugar contents than other 4 Takjus brewed using steamed or non-steamed rice. The pH and total acidity values of all the 5 samples ranged 3.77-4.30 and 0.12-0.35, respectively. As for turbidities, Yakju brewed using nonsteamed rice was transparent, but other 4 Takjus were not. The AMB and fungal counts for Yakju brewed using nonsteamed rice were approximately 104-fold less than those for 4 Takjus. The LAB counts for Takju and Yakju brewed using non-steamed rice were 103-fold less than those for Takjus brewed using steamed rice. The AAB counts ranged 2-6 log10CFU/mL for all the 5 samples. E.coli and coliforms were not detected. Overall, there was no significant difference in microbial counts among 4 Takjus brewed using steamed or non-steamed rice, but Takju has higher microbial counts than Yakju. All the 5 samples were conclusively considered to be hygienically brewed and processed containing plenty of beneficial microorganisms.

In order to optimize the supercritical fluid extraction (SFE) conditions of ginger oleoresin (GO), we conducted an evaluation of quality properties such as yield (%), color, volatile flavor compounds and gingerol components. The extraction yield gained by SFE increased as extraction pressure and temperature increased. The highest yield was 8.96 ± 0.68% at 500 bar 65℃ extraction condition. The total color difference (ΔE) values decreased at high pressure. In case of the 100 bar pressure conditions, ΔE-values increased as the temperature went up. The analysis of the 6-gingerol, 8-gingerol, 10-gingerol, 6-shogaol and curcumin contents decreased at high temperature conditions of identical pressure and increased at high pressure conditions. The volatile flavor compounds were detected in zingiberene,β-sesquiphellandre, β-phellandre, αγ-curcumene, 2,3-butandiol, β-bisabolene and so on. Also volatile component contents showed difference in each of extraction conditions.

Job`s tears(Coix lachryma-jobi L.) chungkukjang powder and wheat bran powder were added to American cookies for practical use as healthy compounds. We examined the antioxidant activity and quality characteristics of cookies prepared with different amounts(as ratios of 10%, 20%, 25% to the flour quantity) of Job`s tears chungkukjang & wheat bran powder. The antioxidant activity was estimated by DPPH free radical scavenging activity, the total phenolic compounds content and flavonoid content in Job`s tears chungkukjang & wheat bran powder and cookies. The quality characteristics of Job`s tears chungkukjang & wheat bran powder American cookie were estimated in terms of bulk density, pH of the dough, spread ratio, color, texture profile analysis, proximate composition, and sensory evaluations. While the spread ratio and the total polyphenol contents, flavonoid contents and DPPH free radical scavenging activity of cookies significantly increased, pH, hardness and L value of the cookies decreased with increasing Job`s tears chungkukjang & wheat bran powder(p<0.01). The consumer acceptability score for the 10~20% Job`s tears chungkukjang & wheat bran powder American cookie ranked significantly(p<0.05) higher than those of the other groups in texture andoverall preference. This suggests that Job`s tears chungkukjang and wheat bran powder are good ingredient candidates for increasing consumer acceptability and functionality of cookies.

This study was conducted to investigate the quality characteristics of soybean curd prepared with Opuntia ficus-indica fruit, freeze-dried Opuntia ficus-indica fruit powder, or heat-dried Opuntia ficus-indica fruit powder, without addition of a coagulant. The yield rates of the soybean curd were slightly decreased for the three curds containing Opuntia ficus-indica fruit; this was accompanied by a significant decrease in pH. Furthermore, the hardness and springiness of soybean curds coagulated with added freeze-dried Opuntia ficus-indica fruit powder or heat-dried Opuntia ficus-indica fruit powder were higher than the hardness and springiness of the coagulated controls. However, the cohesiveness and brittleness of two soybean curds were lower than for the controls, while the gumminess of the four soybean curds containing control fruit was the same. In terms of overall acceptability, the preferred soybean curd was the curd containing freeze-dried Opuntia ficus-indica fruit powder.

The optimal replaced percentage of brown rice Jeung-pyun was investigated in this study. A specific volume of brown rice Jeung-pyun resulted in no difference. The pH of Jeung-pyun (5.10-5.39) was higher than that of Jeung-pyun dough (4.96-5.17). The lightness darkened to 55.39-63.56, as the replaced amount of brown rice flour was increased. Furthermore, redness and yellowness increased to 3.24-4.15 and 4.45-10.12, respectively. The microstructure examined by scanning electron microscopy became enlarged and irregular as the amount of replaced rice increased. The gelatinization of 30-40% brown rice powder was approximately 1.93-2.20. The mechanical textures of hardness, gumminess, chewiness, and fracturability were high as additional ingredients and the storage period increased, whereas adhesiveness, springiness, and cohesiveness were low. The results of a sensory evaluation revealed that the 30% added brown rice Jeung-pyun was highly assessed as the most appropriate percentage of added brown rice Jeung-pyun.

오미자 열매 추출물의 첨가량을 0-50%로 달리하여 식혜를 제조한 후 물리화학적 및 관능적 품질특성을 측정하고 각 특성사이의 상관관계를 살펴보았다. 추출물의 첨가량이 증가함에 따라 식혜의 pH는 유의적으로 감소한 반면 가용성 고형분 함량 및 적색도(a*값)는 증가하였다(p<0.05). 한편, 밝기를 나타내는 L*값과 황색도를 나타내는 b*값은 추출물의 첨가량과 직접적인 관계를 나타나지 않았다. 관능적 품질특성 중 색, 신맛, 단맛은 추출물의 첨가량과 유의적인 관계를 나타내었다(p<0.05). 상관분석 결과 추출물의 첨가량은 L*값과 a*값을 제외한 모든 물리적 및 관능품질 특성과 유의적인 관계를 나타내었다. 소비자 기호도검사에 의하면 10% 오미자 열매 추출물을 첨가한 식혜의 전체적인 기호도가 다른 시료군에 비해 유의적으로 높음을 알 수 있었다(p<0.05).

쌀국수 제품의 품질을 향상시키기 위한 방법으로서 기존의 쌀국수에 파스타가 지닌 물성 및 조리 상의 장점을 접목하고자 파스타의 제조원료인 세몰리나를 글루텐이 소량 첨가된 쌀가루에 대해 함량을 달리하여(0-20%, w/w) 대체하여 생면을 제조하였다. 제조된 생면을 끓인 조리면의 품질을 측정한 결과 전분노화가 다소 억제되며, 씹는 맛(“aldente”)이 증가하고, 끓이는 과정에서 일어나는 전분유출이 감소하여 전반적으로 제품의 품질이 향상되었다. 생면의 제조과정에서는 반죽의 점성 이 커져 반죽이 잘 뭉치고 단단해져 면대형성이 향상되는 효과가 기대되었다. RVA 측정에 따른 전분혼합액의 호화개시온도(pasting time)는 10% 첨가까지는 거의 영향이 없다가 20% 첨가구에서 최고 1.2 증가한 반면 최고점도(peak viscosity)는 첨가량 15% 이상부터 큰 폭으로 감소하였다. 전분의 breakdown값 역시 세몰리나 첨가량이 늘수록 급격히 줄어 shear thinning이 줄어들며 10% 이상 첨가구에서 최종점도(final viscosity)와 setback값 차이가 크게 줄어 노화억제에 의해 조리면이 딱딱해지는 정도가 감소하는 효과가 예상되었다. 생면을 끓일 때 국수에 의한 수분흡수가 낮아져 조리면의 중량 및 부피 변화가 감소되었으며 국물의 탁도가 증가되지 않아 전분침출 억제기능이 확인되었다. 조리면의 색도에서 명도(L)는 감소하였으며 적색도(a)와 황색도(b)가 증가하였으나 일정 수준(15%) 이상이 되면 그 영향이 적게 나타났다. 적은 양(5%)의 세몰리나 첨가에 의해서도 Texture Analyzer로 측정된 경도(hardness), 탄력성(springiness), 응집성(cohesiveness), 검성(gumminess) 및 씹힘성(chewiness)과 같은 모든 텍스쳐 특성치 및 인장강도가 소량(5%)의 첨가에 의해서도 현저히 증가하였으나 10% 이상에서는 변화폭이 줄어는 공통적인 변화양상을 보였다. 이상의 결과를 토대로 세몰리나를 첨가한 쌀국수를 제조하는 경우 원료비용 및 기능성을 고려할 때 쌀가루:세몰리나 최적 첨가비율은 9:1(10%, w/w)로 제시되었다.

In this study, the quality characteristics of jelly with black garlic (0, 10, 20, and 30%) were evaluated. The pH of jelly with black garlic decreased according to the amount of black garlic added. The sugar content of the jelly increased significantly with added black garlic. Lightness, redness, and yellowness decreased with increasing black garlic content. Moreover, the textural properties, which included hardness, springiness, cohesiveness, gumminess, and chewiness decreased in jelly that contained black garlic compared to the controls. Additionally, the antioxidant activity of jelly that contained black garlic increased in a concentration dependent manner. The IC50 values of the DPPH radical scavenging activity for jelly that contained 10, 20 and 30% black garlic were 132.47, 50.97, 40.06, and 30.41 mg/mL, respectively. The IC50 values of the hydroxyl radical scavenging activity of jelly decreased as the black garlic concentration increased. Finally, sensory results showed that the scores of over-all preference and buying intention for jelly with 20% black garlic were the highest.

The objective of this study was to produce muffins with added dukeum ramie leaf powder and to compare them to a control. We used two different optimal composition ratios to produce muffins. The physical and sensory characters were varied by changing the ratio of dukeum ramie leaf powder, butter, and sugar to identify a critical value using response surface regression analysis. The ranges for the added dukeum ramie leaf powder, sugar, and butter were 15-35, 60-100, and 60-100 g, respectively. Muffins with added dukeum ramie leaves had comparable mineral and antioxidant vitamin compositions to those of dried ramie leaves. Muffins with added dukeum ramie leaf powder satisfied the suitability of the model, showing a p-value within 5% of significance level (p<0.05) for every aspect Volume and height differed without any association to ingredients. Lightness increased when less dukeum ramie leaf powder was added with more butter and sugar, redness increased when more dukeum ramie leaf powder and sugar were added with 70-80 g of butter, whereas yellowness increased when less dukeum ramie powder was added. Texture and toughness increased when less dukeum ramie leaf powder was added. The degree of gumminess and chewiness depended hugely on the amount of sugar. Cohesiveness, decreased with more dukeum ramie leaf powder and butter, whereas hardness increased with a medium range of ingredients. Sensory character increased with less dukeum ramie powder, and overall quality increased with more butter and sugar, but depended on the amount of added dukeum ramie power. The critical values from the sensory characteristics showed that 27 g of dukeum ramie powder, 72 g of sugar, and 86 g of butter was optimum.

This study investigated the quality characteristics of Sulgidduk with different levels (0, 4, 8, 12, 16%) of added yam powder by measuring water content, color value, texture, and sensory quality. The water content of Sulgidduk decreased significantly (p<0.05) by increasing the amount of yam powder. The Hunter's L value of Sulgidduk decreased, and the a and b values increased significantly. Mechanical texture parameters, such as hardness, cohesiveness, gumminess, adhesiveness, and chewiness decreased significantly (p<0.05) as the amount of added yam powder increased. The springiness of the 0, 4, 8 and 12% yam Sulgidduk was not different significantly, but springiness decreased significantly in the 16% yam Sulgidduk. Hardness increased significantly during storage, whereas cohesiveness, gumminess, and adhesiveness decreased. Springiness of the control sample increased significantly, but the Sulgidduk with added yam powder had the highest springiness levels during the first and second days. Chewiness was highest during the first day in all Sulgidduk preparations. The 12% yam Sulgidduk was the best in color, flavor, taste, moistness, chewiness, and overall acceptability from the sensory evaluation. These results indicate that Sulgidduk with 12% added yam powder had the best quality in sensory and texture analyses.

Bamboo leaf powder was added to Jeolpyun to increase the neutraceutical effects and storage period. The bamboo leaf powder was added to rice flour at ratios of 0, 4, 6, 8, and 10% (w/w), and they were treated with aqueous malt extract to extend storage. The Jeolpyun was stored at 20℃ for 72 hr, and the physical and sensory characteristics were evaluated. As a result, the crude fat, crude protein, moisture, crude ash and total dietary fiber contents in bamboo leaf powder were 4.36, 11.29, 3.37, 7.33, and 65.57%, respectively. The Hunters L, a, and b values decreased significantly as the amount of bamboo leaf powder increased; however, the a and b values increased during storage. The paste property setback values decreased with the malt extract treatment and with increasing amounts of bamboo leaf powder. In a sensory analysis, hard texture strength in the malt extract and bamboo leaf powder treatment groups was less than that in the control during storage. The Jeolpyun prepared with malt extract and no bamboo leaf powder was the most accepted by consumers. Although adding bamboo leaf powder resulted in less consumer acceptance except for the flavor attribute, adding 4% and 8% bamboo leaf powder resulted in better consumer acceptance for texture, taste, and overall acceptance than that of the control. In a microbial analysis, adding bamboo leaf powder resulted in fewer mold colonies. In conclusion, adding 4% bamboo leaf powder and malt extract to Jeolpyun improved its storage properties.

The objective of this study was to assess the physicochemical characteristics of morning rolls containing various levels (0, 2, and 4%) of Makgeolli lees extract powder, which has nutritional and health effects. The results demonstrated that pH, moisture content, volume, weight, and baking loss rate of morning rolls were not significantly different among the groups. In the morning rolls with 4% Makgeolli lees extract powder, the Hunter's color 'a' (redness), but not L (lightness) or b (yellowness), was significantly higher than that in the other two groups. After estimating the texture quality of morning rolls, hardness, chewiness, and gumminess decreased significantly with added Makgeolli lees extract powder, but springiness was not significantly different. The results of the sensory test showed that appearance and texture increased as more Makgeolli lees extract powder was added, and that the overall acceptability score and air cell uniformity score for 2% and 4% Makgeolli lees extract powder morning rolls were significantly higher than those of controls. These results indicate that the texture and sensitivity of morning rolls can be increased by adding Makgeolli lees extract powder without affecting the overall quality.
