Abstract
The effects of adding Angelica plant (Bakluncho) and Angelica gigas (Senggumcho) powders on the quality characteristics of bread were investigated. The moisture, crude protein, ash, reducing sugar and vitamin C contents of Angelica plant (Bakluncho) powder were 7.78%, 6.07%, 7.37%, 6.13% and 50.10mg%, respectively, and of Angelica gigas (Senggumcho) powder were 8.69%, 12.28%, 5.15%, 2.21% and 108.00mg%, respectively. The lightness value decreased but the redness and yellowness values increased with the addition of Angelica plant (Bakluncho) and Angelica gigas (Senggumcho) powders. The mechanical hardness of bread decreased with the addition of 3% of Angelica plant (Bakluncho) powder, but increased with the addition of 1% and 5% of Angelica plant (Bakluncho) powder. The mechanical hardness of bread decreased with the addition of 1%, 3% and 5% of Angelica gigas (Senggumcho) powder. In sensory characteristics, the crust color, crumb color, moistness and springiness decreased, but aroma and hardness increased with the addition of Angelica plant (Bakluncho) and Angelica gigas (Senggumcho) powders. The savory taste and overall quality of breads with 1% Angelica plant (Bakluncho) and 1% Angelica gigas (Senggumcho) powders were higher than without either powder. A negative correlation was observed between mechanical hardness and overall bread quality with the addition of Angelica plant (Bakluncho) powder, while a positive correlation (p<0.01) was observed with the addition of Angelica gigas (Senggumcho) powder.
