This study was conducted to understand the sensory characteristics and consumer acceptance for the commercially available clear broth for noodles. Totally, eight different clear broth samples were evaluated in this study. Seven trained panelists developed and evaluated sensory characteristics in the descriptive analysis. Significant differences (p<0.05) were obtained for all 28 attributes evaluated. Descriptive data was obtained by performing multivariate analysis of variance to identify differences between samples. Principal component analysis (PCA) was performed on the mean values of descriptive attributes obtained in the descriptive analysis, and summarizes the sensory characteristics of clear broth for noodles. PCA of the clear broths revealed that the first two principal components are responsible for 80.66% variations. For sensory testing, 160 consumers were recruited, and their acceptance for each sample was assessed. Consumer data was obtained by applying partial least square-regression (PLSR) to establish the relationship between the descriptive data and the consumer acceptance data.

The purpose of this study was to develop a technology commercialization strategy by analyzing the consumer preference for low-sodium instant noodle ramen, which has a sodium content of 1,730 mg or less. For the commercialization of such low-sodium ramen, this study examined how much consumers would pay through an analysis of consumer preference by conjoint analysis. This study surveyed 1,004 men and women in their 20 s and 50 s between the ages of 20 and 50 years in Korea using an online survey. If the price of conventional instant noodle ramen is KRW 4,000 (approximately USD 3.57) per 5 packs for one pack of 5 servings in a supermarket, this study surveyed how much more they respondents would pay if the sodium was reduced by 10.0, 20.0, and 30.0%. The study found that if sodium was reduced by 10.0, 20.0, and 30.0%, the respondents would pay as much as KRW 4,180, KRW 4,307, and KRW 4,515, respectively. The attributes of low-sodium instant noodle ramen were examined according to the degree of sodium reduction, vegetable protein ingredients, brand, where to buy and price with each level. The Marginal Willingness To Pay (MWTP) was analyzed as follows. If the sodium content of ramen soup is reduced by 1.0%, the amount that can be paid would be KRW 105.78. Respondents could pay KRW 1,673 more for famous brand ramen than an unknown brand ramen. The study results indicated that when a new product is developed and released, it can be expected to increase sales of the new product by understanding the foreseeable value that consumers could pay for and realize the technological commercialization of the technology.

This study was performed in order to examine the functional and quality characteristics of raw noodles with added kale powder. The raw noodles were prepared at a concentration of 4, 8, and 12% (w/w) of the kale, based on flour weight. The antioxidant activity of kale powder, specifically DPPH free radical scavenging, reducing activity, and total phenolic content were found to be 75.16%, 1.24 (O.D.) and 44.47 mg GAE/g, respectively. Using Hunter Lab color values for raw noodle with added kale powder, L (lightness) values decreased with an increased concentration of kale powder, whereas a (redness) values decreased (p<0.001). In a texture analysis, chewiness (p<0.01), gumminess (p<0.001), and cohesiveness (p<0.001) increased significantly as the amount of added kale powder increased. According to sensory evaluations: color, flavor, taste, texture, and overall palatability had the highest score in noodle with 8% kale powder (p<0.001). During periods of storage, moisture contents were decreased when kale powder concentrations increased, but pH did not differ in any of the groups and bacteria cell counts were between 0% and 8%. Kale noodles were observed at 8% then 0%, decreased by 102 log CFU/g. The antioxidant activities of raw noodles with added kale powder were increased by 8%, a 30~50% increase over the control group. These results suggest that kale powder is useful as a functional food resource with antioxidant activities.

The objectives of this study was to investigate the properties and stability of the wet noodles added to nanoemulsion as a industrial model system, and in so doing, survey practical applicability in the food industry. In order to test out these objectives, the characteristics and stability of the wet noodles added to nanoemulsion were investigated and their cooking characteristics and capsaicinoids loss were examined. As a result, the test results showed that the findings indicated that the post-cooking loss of capsaicinoids in the wet noodles added to double-layer nanoemulsion covered with chitosan was less than the losses in the wet noodles added to any other noodles. More especially, this demonstrates that the noodle added to double-layer nanoemulsion covered with chitosan scored significantly higher than the others with reference to their cooking properties, color, texture, stability for storage stability, and sensory evaluation. These results show that the findings of this study demonstrated that the noodles added to nanoemulsions could be produced as a food-grade merchandise because they could provide enhanced encapsulation capacity of capsaicinoids and higher acceptability.

This purpose of this study was to investigate cooking characteristics of noodles prepared by adding 0, 2, 4 or 6 percent of Capsosiphon fulvescens to wheat flour containing konjac powder. Water binding capacity was significantly increased with increasing amounts of Capsosiphon fulvescens. Weight and volume of cooked noodles increased significantly in proportion with the amount of Capsosiphon fulvescens. Turbidity of the soup after cooking also increased with the addition of Capsosiphon fulvescens. Brightness(L) and redness(a) were decreased with addition of Capsosiphon fulvescens. Yellowness( b) increased. The color value of cooked noodles was decreased compared with that of wet noodles. Sensory evaluation scores revealed that cooked noodles with 4 percent addition group were highest in terms of color, flavor and overall acceptability. This study validates that addition of Amorphophallus konjac and 4 percent Capsosiphon fulvescens may improve functionality and preference of noodles.

This study was conducted to investigate the noodle-making characteristics of a noodle dough with konjac powder added. The water-binding capacity was significantly increased by increasing amounts of the konjac powder. When the weight and volume of the noodles were measured after cooking, there was no difference between the control and konjac powder groups. Turbidity was significantly reduced in a concentration-dependent manner. Chromaticity, in the case of raw noodle lightness (L), decreased significantly, while redness (a) and yellowness (b) significantly increased. Cooked noodles also showed the same pattern of results, however, as a whole, the results were lower when compared to wet noodles. The texture characteristics of hardness and chewiness significantly increased by increasing concentrations of the konjac powder. Cohesiveness was determined to not be significantly different by observing the surface of the noodle with a scanning electron microscope. In a sensory evaluation of the cooked noodle, no significant differences in gloss, taste, hardness, springiness or overall acceptability were observed between the control and konjac powder groups. This study indicates the that addition of 1.5% konjac powder to noodle dough may improve the functionality and preference of noodles

This study was conducted with the purpose of investigating the rheological characteristics of noodle flour dough supplementary konjac powder comprising 0%, 0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5% or 2.0% of the total mixture. In farinograph analysis, water absorption increased with the increased content of konjac powder. Both the arrival times and the development times of the dough with added konjac powder were longer than original wheat flour dough. Dough stability was found to be increased as compared to the control, but decreased as konjac powder content was increased. As konjac powder content increased, the resistance of the dough as shown by farinograph data was highest in the original wheat flour dough as 130 BU. Starting temperature, maximum viscosity temperature and maximum viscosity were decreased as shown in amylograph analysis. In extensograph analysis, the dough's extensibility and resistance to extension of the dough decreased as the amount of konjac powder was increased. The ratio of resistance to extensibility (R/E) decreased with the an increase in the amount of konjac powder included in the dough. The dough’s tensile strength after cooking was increased in proportion to the additional amount of konjac powder used.

This study evaluated the quality characteristics of dried noodles prepared with doenjang powder (0, 3, 6, 9%) in order to determine the most preferred noodle recipe. The proximate composition of the composite doenjang powder-wheat flours was as follows: calories 365 kcal, carbohydrates 79 g, saccharides 3 g, protein 10 g, fat 0.8 g, and sodium 65 mg. As the level of doenjang powder increased, the content of total amino acids increased; aspartic acid, glutamic acid, tyrosine, and lysine contents increased, in particular. Water-binding capacity decreased as the level of doenjang powder increased. When viscosity of composite doenjang powder-wheat flours was measured by amylography, gelatinization point increased as the level of doenjang powder increased. As the level of doenjang powder increased, L value decreased, whereas a and b values increased. Weight, water absorption, and volume of cooked noodles decreased, whereas turbidity of soup increased. For textural properties, hardness decreased, whereas springiness increased as the level of doenjang powder increased. For overall preference according to the results of sensory evaluation, noodles added with 3% doenjang powder were the most preferred. According to the results, addition of doenjang powder positively affects the overall sensory evaluation of dried noodle, and 3% is the optimal level for addition.

The objective of this study was to investigate the effect of sample presenting types on the sensory characteristics of chilled buckwheat noodle soup (Naeng-myeon). Generic descriptive analysis was performed for evaluating only stock (system 1), only noodle (system 2) and stock with noodle (system 3). Eight kinds of commercially available Naeng-myeon were samples of interest. Ten female descriptive panelists participated. ANOVA and regression analysis were used for data analysis. In the training sessions, ten sensory properties were developed for system 1, four were additionally established for noodle. In each system, the 8 products showed significantly different intensities in almost all sensory attributes like darkness of stock, overall flavor, sweetness, saltiness, sourness. When integrating the two systems, sample presenting types showed significant difference for the seven sensory attributes, especially saltiness, sourness, beef flavor tended to be rated more strongly in system 1 than system 3.

The reduction of the content of sodium chloride in noodle was studied to prevent the problems related to excessive sodium intake, such as high blood pressure and cardiovascular diseases. This study investigated the effect of hydrolyzed anchovy products (HAP) on the salty taste of cooked noodle. The experiment was set up to determine the general properties of dough in dried and cooked noodles, with a sensory test used while increasing the concentration of HAP at same salt contents. There was no significant difference in water binding capacity, solubility, swelling power, lightness, and cooking properties. The redness, yellowness, and hardness were increased upon increasing the contents of HAP. From the sensory evaluation, cooked noodle with added HAP had a high score in appearance, color, texture, and flavor. Moreover, 50% and 75% HAP showed higher values than the control item in saltiness, preference of saltiness, and overall acceptance. Consequently, the HAP could have an effect on dried noodles or cooked noodles as a salty taste enhancer without changing the noodle’s properties.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of liposome-coated salt (LCS) on the salty taste intensity of noodle. Dough, dried noodle, and boiled noodle with LCS were evaluated physico-chemically for water content, water binding capacity, solubility, swelling power, color, texture, cooking properties, and sensory test. There were no significant differences in water content, water binding capacity, lightness, yellowness, and texture of noodle between the noodles with liposome-coated salt and non-coated salt. For the sensory analysis, the panel did detect more salty taste at 1.0% and 2.0% of LCS compared to the control. From these results, this study demonstrates that liposome coated salt can enhance salty taste, maintaining the same salt concentration without the physical property changes of noodle.
