This study investigates the optimal application of perilla leaves to fresh noodles in terms of a variety of beneficial effects and functions such as the anti-microbial function of the leaves. First, we measured the water contents of the fresh noodles and found that the ones added with 7% lyophilized perilla leaf extract showed the maximum water contents whereas the control noodles without perilla leaf extract the minimum. Increasing amount of raw perilla leaf extract or lysophilzed perilla leaves in the fresh noodles elevated the L value and significantly reduced the A value. The mass and volume of the fresh noodles were gradually decreased with raw perilla leaves added. Addition of raw perilla leaf extract and lyophilized perilla leaves decreased the turbidity of the fresh noodles. Hardness of the fresh noodles was increased by the addition of lyophilized Perilla leaves. Next, we tested the effect of the addition of sesame leaves on microbial growth. No microbes were found in the fresh noodles in the absence or presence of sesame leaves at day 0. When the noodles were stored for 3 days, the greatest number of bacteria was detected in the noodles without perilla leaves while addition of perilla leaves lowered the amount of bacteria in the noodles. We then performed the sensory test. For the raw perilla leaf extract addition, the noodles with 9% of extract exhibited the highest in appearance, flavor, color (6.47), texture (6.60), and overall acceptability (7.67). Texture was the highest in the ones with 3% (6.87) and 5% (6.20) of extracts added. Overall acceptability (7.07) was the best when 3% perilla leaves were added. Overall, 9% addition of raw perilla leaf extract or 3% addition of lysophilized perilla leaves showed optimal tastes.

This study was performed to determine the quality characteristics of Jeung-Pyun with added tapioca flour. With increasing tapioca flour content, the moisture content of the product was decreased. The addition of tapioca flour increased the volume and symmetry compared to the control with no tapioca flour. The highest uniformity was shown by the 10% added group, but the differences were not significant. In the Hunter's value, the lightness of the control was higher than that of the group with added tapioca flour. Whereas the reverse was the case for the yellowness. With increasing tapioca flour content, the springiness, gumminess, cohesiveness, and chewiness of Jeung-Pyun were increased, and the hardness increased. In sensory evaluation cell uniformity and chewiness were the highest in the 20% added group. The hardness of the sense examination increasing with increasing tapioca floor content. The overall quality of Jeung-Pyun was the lowest in the 30% added group.

To evaluate the quality of commercial anchovy sauces, 8 varieties (2 products from the Fishery Cooperation, 2 from small companies, and 4 well-known brands) were chosen and their physicochemical and sensory properties were examined. The salinity of anchovy sauces ranged from 19.8％ to 26%, where product E was the saltiest and followed by F> H > B > E > A> C = G > D. Product D with the least salinity was turbid, rancid, and high in ammonia content, suggesting that it is difficult to control the quality of anchovy source with a low salt content. Protein content of anchovy sauces ranged from 2.51％ to 2.64%. The unit price of anchovy source A was the highest, whereas B was the lowest. Sensory evaluation scores of anchovy sauces were in the order of B > G > A > F > E > C > H > D for color, B > G = C > H > E = F > G > D for odor, E > C > F > G > H > D > B > A for saltiness, and B > A > C > H > E = F > G > D for overall acceptability. Above results suggest that product B was the best in quality as well as the cheapest among all. Based on the above results, kimchies were prepared with product A, B, C with a high sensory quality and product H with a high market occupancy, and sensory evaluation was performed. The kimchi with product C got the highest sensory score in appearance and the one with product A and H in odor. Although the kimchi with product A generally had high scores throughout the fermentation period, there were no significant differences in texture, salty taste, and overall acceptability among kimchies with different varieties of anchovy sauces.

The study was conducted to evaluate the effect of substitution of flour with Suaeda asparagoides(at the levels of 0%, 2%, 4%, and 6%) on the characteristics of sponge cake. The specific gravity of batter increased significantly as the content of Suaeda asparagoides increased. The specific volume and baking loss rate of cake decreased significantly as the content of Suaeda asparagoides increased. The volume and weight of batter increased significantly as the content of Suaeda asparagoides increased. Texture analysis showed that the control had the lowest hardness and highest springiness. According to sensory evaluation, the experiment groups scored higher points in texture acceptance than the control. Above all, the 2~4% samples scored the highest points in aroma, taste, appearance, and overall acceptance.

To develop onion processing, this study investigated the change in physicochemical properties of onion Jangaji with processing age in relation to the composition of the maturation solution (the solution). The Brix of onion Jangaji and the solution was high with addition of a high soy sauce ratio. During processing the salinity of onion Jangaji and the solution increased, and the pH decreased. The "L", "a", "b" color values of onion Jangaji and the solution changed slightly, and the total acidityrose slowly. The hardness, fracturability, adhesiveness, cohesiveness, springiness, gumminess and chewiness of onion Jangaji varied. In the sensory evaluation, the 100% sauce maturation solution received the highest acceptability ratings for color, flavor and taste.

Red yeast rice flour, which is a natural functional material, was used in muffin production at different concentrations ranging from 0 to 10%. The initial pasting temperature was not affected by the addition of red yeast rice flour, whereas peak viscosity and final viscosity decreased with increasing concentrations. The lightness value of the muffins decreased, however, the redness value increased with increasing amounts of red yeast rice flour. The bulk of the muffins was generally reduced by the addition of red yeast rice flour. At the 10% concentration, hardness and viscosity were similar to the control, and there were no changes in springiness or cohesiveness. For the sensory evaluation, parameters such as appearance, color, texture, taste, and overall acceptability increased significantly from the control at the 3% concentration of red yeast rice flour, but flavor decreased with increasing amounts of red yeast rice flour. Based on these results and the sensory evaluation specifically, the optimal amount of red yeast rice flour added to the muffins was the 3% concentration.

In this study we examined the antioxidant activity and fermentation characteristics of black rice wine. The antioxidant activity of black rice wine was higher than the control, and DPPH radical scavenging activity showed a correlation with the anthocyanin content of rice wine. The pH remarkably decreased until 3 days of fermentation, and the gradually decreased. The reducing sugar and free sugar content reached a maximum at 1 day of fermentation due to enzyme activity. The amount of organic acids, especially lactic acid, increased during the fermentation period. Lactic acid bacteria and yeast count increased with time and amount of black rice. The L color value increased during fermentation regardless of treatments, and the a color value increased with ratio of black rice due to anthocyanin. For this reason, color was given a high score in black rice wine. But overall preference was high in rice wine made with less than 20% of black rice.

The effect of heat-shock treatment of soybean on the quality characteristics of soybean sprouts was investigated. Six groups of soybeans were heat-treated in 35, 40, 45$^{\circ}C$ for 60 and 120 min respectively and then cultivated by a standard method to measure growth parameters, rot ratio, color, vitamin C content and sensory characteristics. Soybean sprouts of 4$0^{\circ}C$/120 min treatment showed the higher weight, while 4$0^{\circ}C$/60 min sample showed thicker hypocotyl and longer cotyledon than the control. In both rot ratio and viable cell count, the lowest values were obtained in soybean sprouts of control and also in 4$0^{\circ}C$/60 min treated samples, while other heat-treated samples showed higher rot ratio and cell counts than the control. Heat treatment of soybean increased the lightness and decreased the yellowness of cotyledon of sprouts. Vitamin C contents of sprouts were increased by heat treatment. Sensory test showed that the heat treatment reduced benny odor and bitter taste but enhanced the nutty taste. Soybean sprouts of 4$0^{\circ}C$/60 min resulted in significantly higher scores in overall appearance and palatability than other samples.
