This study was conducted to investigate the effect of superheated steam (SHS) on the improvement of quality during the manufacturing process of Samgyetang products. SHS cooking showed the increase in moisture content and the decrease in protein. In terms of chromaticity, the value of L was significantly higher in the $2^{nd}$ SHS cooking compared to conventional cooking. As for texture, the hardness decreased in Samgyetang with SHS cooking than conventional cooking. According to the results of the safety experiment with a 14-day refrigerations storage the total number of bacteria was lower in the SHS cooking compared to conventional cooking. The TBA value increased to 0.59-5.70 mg MD/kg after 15 days; VBN values were also 0.70-4.54 mg% in SHS cooking indicating a slight decomposition. Overall, it was found that SHS cooking and HHP were more preferred and also had an effect of reducing microorganisms, which were improvements in product quality and sanitation.

This study has been conducted to develop brown stock with the high pressure cooking(HPC) method. The sterilization methods, package film and storage methods, and quality maintenance during storage were investigated in this study. The packaging quality of NY/PP was inferior to that of PE/AL/PP since NY/PP facilitated the ventilation and moisture absorption. The maximum duration of the safe storage was found to be 50 days at 25$^{\circ}C$, 30 days at 35$^{\circ}C$ for NY/PP package film, and 60 days at 25$^{\circ}C$, 40 days at 35$^{\circ}C$ for PE/AL/PP one. These results showed that the overall quality of brown stock by the HPC method was not different significantly from that of brown stock by the traditional approach. Furthermore, the HPC approach might improve the productivity by saving the labour cost, food cost, and cooking time. Therefore, the traditional method might well be substituted by this newly developed method.

The autoclave method and the traditional cooking method were compared for nutrients(especially, minerals), color difference, viscosity, reduction of sugar and amino nitrogen content of brown stock. The autoclave cooking method is better than the traditional cooking method for retaining protein and amino nitrogen contents, as well as for reducing sugar content. Also, reducing sugar content increased by the autoclave cooking method. Since the color of brown sauce was related with the reducing sugar content, the autoclave cooking method was more effective than the traditional cooking method for the color development of brown stock. Since the autoclave method can reduce the cooking time without a loss of quality in brown stock, the autoclave method is a viable alternative to the traditional method of preparing brown stock.

The aim of this study was to compare the dietary patterns and behaviors of university students according to their type of residence. The subjects consisted of two thousand two hundred fifty students from Wonkwang University. They were divided into three groups : those who live in their family homes (393 men, 392 women) ; those who live in university dormitories (371 men, 401 women) : and those who live in houses with cooking facilities (345 men, 348 women). This cross-sectional survey was conducted using a self-administered questionnaire. The nutrient intake data collected from a three-day recall were analyzed using the Computer Aided Nutritional Analysis Program and the diet quality was estimated using the Nutrient Adequacy Ratio, Mean Adequacy Ratio and Index of Nutritional Quality. The results showed that the mean daily intakes of calcium were lower than the Korean Recommended Daily Allowance (RDA) in all groups. There was a significant difference in the nutrient intake, dietary quality and dietary behaviors of the three groups. The nutrients intake and dietary quality of the men were poorer than those of the women in all three groups. The subjects living in dormitories and houses with cooking facilities seemed to have lower levels of nutrient intake and dietary quality. However, the concern about nutrition and interest in health information was higher among those living in dormitories and houses with cooking facilities than among those living in their family homes. Male students living in houses with cooking facilities had more dietary problems than students living in their family homes or in dormitories possibly because they might have had a lower ability in meal management. These results suggest that the type of residence affects the nutrient intake levels, and dietary quality of university students in Iksan. Nutritional education is essential if university students are to practice optimal nutritional habits, including the eating of well-balanced diets and selecting of foods of high quality. Therefore, nutritional education for university students is needed so as to improve their health and a nutritional education program should be developed to meet the various needs of these students.

The cooking characteristics of Hicook with lecithin and GMS as emulsifier were examined for effect on the reduction of oil levels in fried foods. Hicook and soybean oil were used in stir-frying and pan-frying, and in case of Hicook the weight of oil absorbed and spattered during cooking were significantly lower than in case of soybean oil. Next this study attempt to standardize the recipe for preparation of selected Korean foods, especially in regards of the amount of oil used during cooking. The foods studied were all used frequently in Korea, they inculded stir-fried vegetables, stir-fried rice, and pan-fried fish and soybean curd. The results showed that Hicook, even in a half amount, made it possible cooking food with good properties, and calorie content of cooked foods could be lowered considerably. The trained panelists evaluated sensory characteristics of foods, flavor, appearance, and overall acceptability. Sensory qualities of food prepared with Hicook were highly acceptable, and rated better than controls in flavor and overall acceptability. But because stir-fried food was accepted greasy and oily in customarily, the appearance was rated lower than comtrol. In summary, application of hicook offers means of lowering fat levels while keeping sensory quality good. The emulsifier in Hicook is responsible for reduction of oil content and improvement of quality of fried foods.

This study was designed to explore the effects of marbling on meat quality characteristics and intramuscular connective tissue of beef longissimus muscle. Chemical determinations, histological and mechanical measurements were performed on the raw and cooked meat at d 4 postmortem. The results showed that crude fat, collagen, fiber diameter and maximum transition temperature of intramuscular connective tissue increased (p<0.05) with the increase of marbling score. The cooking losses, collagen solubility, WBSF and perimysial thickness decreased (p<0.05) with the increasing marbling. WBSF correlated (p<0.05) with moisture, crude fat, collagen, cooking losses, sarcomere length and perimysial thickness. The development of marbling results in the decline in cooking losses, the avoidance of sarcomere shortening, and the disorganization of the perimysia, which accounts for the improvement of beef tenderness.

To investigate the effect of cooking methods on protein quality of domestic fresh monkfish meat (FMM) and imported frozen monkfish meat (IMM), in vitro protein qualities were determined by amino acid anlysis, trypsin indigestible substrate (TIS) formation, and protein digestibility using the four-enzyme method. Crude protein contents of the boiled FMM and IMM were $90\%$ of the dry base, which were higher than fresh FMM $(82\%)$ and IMM $(84\%)$. Profiles of total amino acid in FMM and IMM were not changed by cooking methods. Total free amino acid contents decreased to $ 29.0-33.6\%$ for boiled $(l00^{\circ}C,\;10 min)\;and\;24\%$ for steamed $(100^{\circ}C,\;10\;min)$ samples. In vitro protein digestibilities of boiled and steamed FMM incnased $86.6-86.8\%$, compared to raw IMM $(82.9\%)$, boiled and steamed IMM $85.1-85.5\%$ and raw IMM $(83.6\%)$. TIS of FMM (23.6 mg/g solid) and IMM (15.9 mg/g solid) showed no significant (p<0.05) difference in cooking methods. The C-PERs (computed protein efficiency ratio) of boiled FMM (2.63) and IMM (2.50) were significantly higher (<0.05) than raw (1.97) and steamed FMM(1.97) and IMM(1.94). These results demonstrate that boiling of FMM and IMM improves protein digestibility and C-PER when compared to steamed FMM and IMM. Therefore, boiling could be an excellent means to maintain high-protein quality of monkfish meat. Also, the cooking method may be applicable to the preparation of monkfish stew without any loss of free amino acids.

The autoclave method and the traditional cooking method are compared for nutrients, mineral, color difference, viscosity, reducing sugar and amino nitrogen content of brown stock. For protein and amino nitrogen contents, the autoclave cooking method is better than the traditional cooking method. Also, reducing sugar content is increased by the autoclave cooking method. Since the color of brown sauce is related with reducing sugar content, the autoclave cooking method is more effective than the traditional cooking method for the color of brown sauce. Since the autoclave method can reduce the cooking time without the loss of quality in brown stock, the traditional method can be substituted by this new method.

Black soybeans were gamma-irradiated at dost levels of 0, 2., 5, 10 and 20 kGy, and stored at room temperature for the experiments associated with cooking quality. The degree of cooking of soybeans in boiling water at 98-10$0^{\circ}C$ has been determined by measuring the maximum cutting force of cotyledon. The cutting force to reach a complete cooking was about 120~130g/g. Irradiation at 2.5~20kGy caused the reduction of cooking time in black soybeans by 30~60% compared to the nonirradiated control, and the cooking rate constant of the irradiated samples was higher than that fo the nonirradiated control sample. These results were similarly found in the stored samples for one year at room temperature after irradiation. Color characteristics of cooked samples showed no significant difference between the nonirradiated control and 5 kGy-irradiated sample. After complete cooking of black soybeans, there were not significant in the organoleptic qualities between the nonirradiated and irradiated samples.

Two of the Hard White Winter (HWW) wheats had higher farina yield than mixed Hard Red Winter (HRW) wheat. Optimum steaming time for HRW farina spaghetti was 3min under 86-98$^{\circ}C$. Optimum cooking time decreased after steam treatment. Steam treated spaghetti showed much higher strength of dried spaghetti, lower cooking loss, and cooked weight, less stickiness, and total organic matters (TOM) value than in treated spaghetti after cooking. The rooking qualities except stickiness were significantly different between treated and untreated steam. The quality of hard wheat farina spaghetti was more affected than that of durum spaghetti after steam treatment. HWW farina spaghetti im-roved all the qualities of steam treated and untreated spaghetti than those of HRW farina spaghetti except stickiness. From the observations of scanning electron microscope (SEM), maybe two general principles of steaming can be explained by : i) forming hydrophobic protein film on surface of pasta, ii) higher retrogradation of starch, which cause less swelling of starch.
