  • The basic processing unit for instant ramen noodles includes mixing, rolling, boiling, frying, cooling, and packing processes. For uniform thickness of dough sheets in rolling process, the roll-gap in rolling process needs to keep uniform thickness of flour sheets in spite of different kinds of raw materials. In this paper, we have developed a roll gap adjustment system using a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) with a touch panel and an AC servo-mechanism to make dough sheets with a good gluten starch-network structure and uniform thickness and to contribute to process standardization by transferring from tacit knowledge of skilled workers to explicit knowledge. The developed system can adjust the roll gap in units of 0.01mm and correspond to various product items which have different thickness specification by recalling the presetting values of the desired thickness from database.

  • Polyphenol oxidase (PPO) is implicated in discoloration of white salted noodles and other wheat based foods. PPO activity was evaluated to determine the effect on discoloration of noodle dough sheets prepared from 25 Korean wheat flours during storage and to screen experimental lines with low PPO activity in 52 Korean wheats. PPO activity was assayed with whole-seed and performed with L-dihydroxyphenylalanine (L-DOPA) as substrates. Absorbance by L-DOPA assay of 25 Korean wheats was from 0.285 to 1.368 at 475 nm. PPO activity was significantly related with grain characteristics, including 1000-kernel weight and grain colors. In flour characteristics, PPO activity positively correlated with ash and protein content (r = 0.658, P < 0.001 and r = 0.424, P < 0.05, respectively) and negatively correlated with $L^*$ value of flour (r = 0.412, P < 0.05). In the changes of color of noodle dough sheet, $L^*$ and $b^*$ values consistently decreased and $a^*$ value increased during storage. PPO activity negatively correlated with $L^*$ value of noodle dough sheet during storage (r = 0.566, P < 0.01 at 2 hr, r = 0.547, P < 0.01 at 24 hr, and r = 0.509, P < 0.01 at 48 hr). But, no significant relationship was found in between PPO activity, $a^*$ and $b^*$ values during storage. The 52 Korean wheat lines examined in this study were divided into 3 different groups, low (< 0.500), medium (0.501-0.999) and high level (> 1.000), on the basis of the level of PPO activity. Twenty two Korean wheat lines showed low level of PPO activity and Suwon 252, 277 and 280 showed lower PPO activity (< 0.200) than others.

  • Flour characteristics and end-use quality of 10 commercial flours produced from Korean wheat (Kcom) were evaluated to assess consumersatisfaction with Korean wheat compared with commercial flour (Com) prepared from imported wheats. Two types of Kcom, whole wheatflour and white wheat flour, were found in various markets. Whole wheat flours showed higher ash and protein content, lower lightness, and higher water absorption in mixography, than did white wheat flours. The amylose content of Kcom was similar to that of Com, but peak viscosity and breakdown of Kcom were lower than those of Com. Noodle dough sheet prepared from white flours of Kcom was thinner and lighter than dough sheets prepared using whole wheat flours. Compared to Com, Kcom showed lower noodle dough sheet lightness. The hardness of cooked noodles prepared with Kcom was similar to that of noodles made from Com. When used for bread baking, Kcom showed lower loaf volume, lower crumb lightness, and higher crumb firmness, than did Com.

  • White salted noodles and pan bread were prepared from Korean wheats with 1Dx2.2+1Dy12 subunits in high molecular weight glutenin subunits (HMW-GS) to evaluate the suitability for end-use products through the comparison with US wheats with various classes and commercial wheat flours. Korean wheat flours with 1Dx2.2+1Dy12 subunits showed higher SDS sedimentation volume than US wheat flours with similar protein content. Compared to wheat flours with similar protein content and SDS sedimentation volume, water absorption percent of Korean wheat flours using a mixograph was higher than that of US wheat flours, but similar to commercial wheat flours. Mixograph mixing time was similar to hard wheat flours and commercial noodle flours. Optimum water absorption percent of noodle dough from Korean wheat flours was higher than that of US wheat flours. Noodle sheets from Korean wheat flours with 1Dx2.2+ 1Dy12 subunits showed lower L values, higher a values and similar b values compared to commercial noodle flours. Hardness of cooked noodles from Korean wheat flours 1Dx2.2+1Dy12 subunits correlated positively with protein content, NIRS hardness, mixograph water absorption and gluten yield of flours. Korean wheat flours with 1Dx2.2+1Dy12 subunits showed lower loaf volume and harder crumb firmness than hard wheat flours and commercial bread wheat flours in spite of similar protein quantity and quality to hard wheat flours.

  • This study was carried out to find major factors affecting the color of wheat flour and noodles and develop simple analysis method for the breeding of wheat cultivars suitable for producing flour and noodles with bright color which are preferred by consumers. Customers who buy white noodle or flour prefer bright-colored food to dark-colored products. We evaluated grains of 25 Korean wheat cultivars for chemical composition, grain characteristics, and color change of noodle dough sheets during storage. Polyphenol oxidase (PPO) has been connected to discoloration of white salted noodles and other wheat end products. The grain PPO activity was reduced as the 1,000 grain weight, grain ash content, and protein content decreased. The grain PPO activity was positively correlated with the total polyphenol content ($r=0.609^{**}$) and iron content ($r=0.655^{**}$). Lightness, protein, polyphenol and Fe content of flour were positively correlated with PPO activity of grain. Cultivars with higher grain PPO activity showed darker noodles and were more easily discolored during the storage (from 2 hr to 48 hr). Thus, PPO activity can be used as a selection index in a breeding program for wheat cultivars of bright-colored flour.
