This study aimed to examine the cooking methods used in the Joseon Dynasty using cooking books. We chose "Suwoonjabbang" (1500's) and "Eumsikdimibang" (1610) as the subjects of this study. Cooking methods from these two recipe books were categorized into staples, side dishes, rice cakes, Korean traditional sweets and cookies, drinks, fermented foods, seasonings, and storage methods. Firstly, "Suwoonjabbang" contains a total of 121 cooking methods divided into two volumes. In contrast, "Eumsikdimibang" includes 146 cooking methods. There are 18 methods for noodles and dduks, 74 methods for fish and meat, and 54 methods for drinks and vinegars, and others. Secondly, "Suwoonjabbang" written by Yu Kim in Chinese characters can be described in simple terms. It provides caution against indulging in the taste of food. In contrast, "Eumsikdimibang" by Kye Hyang Jang contains detailed cooking methods that have disappeared. Thirdly, "Eumsikdimibang" introduced more diverse cooking methods for noodles, dumplings, side dishes, rice cake, Korean traditional sweets and cookies, and fermented foods as compared to "Suwoonjabbang". In conclusion, unique cooking methods introduced in these two cooking books, which are rare these days, are expected to be further applied and developed.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of ultrasonic treatment on physicochemical and sensory properties of cooked chicken meat. Moisture content of ultrasonic treated breast meat was higher than that of control, fat content of control of breast and leg meat were higher than that of ultrasonic treatment, and protein of control of breast meat was higher than that of ultrasonic treatment. Hunters L(lightness)-and a(redness)-value were not different between cooking methods, L-value of breast meat and a-value of leg meat were higher without regard to cooking method. Hunterb (yellowness)-value was not different among cooking chicken meats. Cooking yield was not different between cooking methods, pH of ultrasonic treated chicken meats were higher than that of control. Water holding capacity and salt soluble protein extractability of ultrasonic treated breast meat were greater than that of control. Water soluble protein extractability of ultrasonic treated leg meat was higher than that of control, and shear force value was not different between cooking methods. Hardness, cohesiveness and gumminess were not different between cooking methods and parts of muscle. Springiness of ultrasonic treated leg meat was greater than that of control and chewiness of breast meat was higher than that of leg meat. Aroma, texture, juiciness and overall acceptability were not different between cooking methods, taste of ultrasonic treated leg meat was higher than that of control. In addition, the sensory scores of parts of muscle were affected greater than that of cooking methods.

Soybeans ans black-eyed peas, chosen as test samples of dry beans, were subjected to soaking and cooking treatments to develop quick cookig methods and study their effects on quality of cooked products. The results of the study are summarized as follow: 1. Of the soaking methods tested, soaking soybeans in 3% sodium bicarbonate (SBC) solution and black-eyed peas in 0.5-1% SBC solution followed by cooking them in water at $95-100^{\circ}C$ required 40 minutes and 10 minutes of cooking time, respectively. When compared to 180 minutes of cooking time for soybeans and 40 minutes of that for black-eyed peas by conventional cooking method (Control), soaking dry beans in optimum SBC solutions reduced cooking time by over 80%. 2. Among cooking methods tested, steam cooking at $121^{\circ}C$ was the most effective one in reducing cooking time of soybeans (15 min.). Black-eyed peas sacked in water required 6 minutes of cooking time in 1% SBC solution at $95-100^{\circ}C$, and 5 minutes of that in steam at $121^{\circ}C$. 3. Quality of cooked beans with optimum texture was evaluated by sensory panel and Gardner Color Difference Meter. Beans cooked in steam at $121^{\circ}C$ had better overall quality than those cooked by other methods. Beans soaked in optimum SBC solution had quality as good as control, whereas beans cooked in SBC solution had worse quality than control. 4. These results indicated that cooking time of soybeans could be drastically reduced by either steam cooking at $121^{\circ}C$ or soaking in 3% SBC solution followed by cooking in water at $95-100^{\circ}C$. Cooking time of black-eyed peas could be significantly shortened by either steam cooking at $121^{\circ}C$ or soaking in 0.5-1% SBC solution followed by cooking in water at $95-100^{\circ}C$.

We evaluated the effects of pre-cooking methods on the quality of reheated marinated pork loin. Frozen marinated pork loins cooked using various methods (boiling, grilling, pan frying, infrared cooking, and superheated steam cooking) were reheated in a microwave, and their pH, color, cooking loss, re-heating loss, total loss, thiobarbituric acid reactive substance (TBARS) value, sensory properties, and shear force were determined. Although all parameters varied with different cooking methods, lightness values and TBARS values showed the tendency to decrease and increase, respectively, after reheating. Superheated steam-cooked samples showed the lowest values of cooking loss, total loss, TBARS value, and shear force (p<0.05) and the highest lightness, redness, and yellowssness values and juiciness, chewiness, and overall acceptability scores (p<0.05). These results show that pre-cooking with superheated steam maintains the quality characteristics of marinated pork loin upon reheating. Therefore, pre-cooking with superheated steam may be beneficial for the commercial distribution of frozen cooked marinated pork loin.

The study was conducted to evaluate the characteristics of Nuhbiani qualities with the different cooking, reheating methods and storage conditions. Cooking and reheating methods were used with pan, microwave and their combinations. Precooked samples were stored for 0, 1, 4, 7, 15 days in the refrigerator and for 15, 30 days in the freezer. TBA value, shear value by rheometer and sensory attributes in rancidity, hardness, juiciness and overall acceptability were measured. There was no significant difference between cooking, reheating methods in TBA values. Lower values in TBA were noted in the Nuhbiani of frozen storage as compared with that of refrigerated storage. There is a tendency that TBA values were increased as the storage time extended during the refrigeration. Shear values were more increased by microwave cooking and microwave reheating than other methods showing harder texture. Results from sensory evaluation of rancidity, hardness, juiciness and overall acceptability show that there were no significant differences between storage methods, among storage periods and cooking, reheating methods.

This study set out to identify the changes in the nutrient contents during the chicken cooking process as basic data for the establishment of a national health nutrition policy. Samples were produced using 3 chicken parts (wing, breast, and leg) and 7 cooking methods (boiling, pan-cooking, pan-frying, deep-frying, steaming, roasting, and microwaving), and the essential amino acid contents, principal components, and retention rates were analyzed. Weight loss was observed in all chicken parts with all cooking methods. The protein and essential amino acid contents of the chicken samples differed significantly according to the part and the cooking method (p<0.01). The protein and essential amino acid contents (g/100 g) of raw and cooked chicken parts showed ranges of 16.81-32.36 and 0.44-2.45, respectively. The principal component analysis (PCA) clearly demonstrated that the cooking methods and chicken parts produced similar trends for the essential amino acid contents. The retention rates of the chicken parts varied with the cooking methods, yielding a minimum value of 83% for isoleucine in a roasted wing, 91% for protein in a steamed breast, and 77% for isoleucine and lysine in a roasted leg. Therefore, the protein and amino acid contents of the roasted breast were higher than those of the other cooked chicken parts.

This study was conducted in order to determine the effect of various cooking methods (boiling, pressure cooking, steaming and microwave heating) on mineral content, color and sensory quality of radish, potato and carrot. It was shown that microwave heating was desirable method in cooking radish on both the acceptability and the retention of mineral content. On the other hand, steaming and pressure cooking were found to be desirable methods for cooking potato. There were not so many differences in both the retention of mineral content and the acceptability of carrot by various cooking methods. The pressure cooking, which was not a proper method for leaf vegetables, could be applied to root vegetables without losing so many mineral contents.

The effect of dietary fiber enrichment (wheat bran) and cooking methods (oven, steam and microwave) on functional and physico-chemical properties of raw nuggets formulation as well as nutritional, color and textural properties of chicken nuggets were analyzed in this study. Among different cooking methods used for nuggets preparation, steam cooked nuggets had significantly (p<0.05) higher water holding capacity (56.65%), cooking yield (97.16%) and total dietary fiber content (4.32%) in comparison to oven and microwave cooked nuggets. The effect of cooking methods and wheat bran incorporation was also noticed on textural properties of the nuggets. Hardness, firmness and toughness values of oven and steam cooked nuggets were significantly (p<0.05) higher than microwave cooked nuggets. Among nuggets prepared by different cooking methods, cohesiveness of microwave cooked nuggets was found to be significantly (p<0.05) highest, whereas, oven cooked nuggets had significantly (p<0.05) highest gumminess and chewiness values. Steam cooked nuggets were found to be better among all nuggets due to their higher cooking yield and dietary fiber content.

Eumsik-dimibang is the oldest and first cooking recipe book in Korean language ever published in Korea. It was examined in order to find out food ingredients being used as side dishes and its cooking methods used at that time. As side dishes, there were many foods which used dogs as food ingredients for making Gae Jang Jim and Gae Jang etc. as well as Dong A such as Dong A Nurumi and Dong A sun. Also, there were many foods prepared by Nurumi cooking method for making Gae Jang Guk, Nurumi, eggplant Nurumi etc. From cooking methods for food ingredients for side dishes at that time, following characteristics could be found. First, there was a cooking method of broiling meat on fire after blanching it in water. Second, many cooking methods were used to remove fetid smells and fishy smells (using ginger, pepper, cheoncho etc). Third, there was a method which demanded much attention and devotion in the course of cooking. Fourth, use and cooking method of flour were diversified.

Quality changes of cooked meat products are dependent upon cooking temperature and heating methods. Pork ham is the most preferred pork dish using pork hams in South Korea although it is not suited to various cooking methods because its low fat content does not provide desirable physiochemical and sensory properties to consumers. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of four different cooking methods on pork legs by comparing Ocoo, Sous-vide, steaming, and boiling technique at $80^{\circ}C$ and $100^{\circ}C$. Ultimately, the most effective cooking method and temperature to improve the quality of cooked pork hams was investigated. As the results of texture analysis, the samples cooked using Ocoo and Sous-vide methods showed higher springiness and cohesiveness than those using steaming and boiling methods. For the sensory evaluation, participants liked the hardness, juiciness, chewiness, tenderness of the samples using the OC method, resulting in the highest overall acceptance rate. The results of this study showed that using Ocoo or Sous-Vide cooking methods can improve the quality of cooked pork hams in both physicochemical and sensory properties.
