To defend putrifaction of the processed rice cake from gas-forming yeast during storage and distribution it needed to reduce and remove them. The sanitizers of ethanol and organic acids were applied on Pichia anomala, Candida tropicalis, and isolated yeasts from the putrified cut rice cake. Although growth inhibition effect by the sanitizer of 20% ethanol, 1% acetic acid, or 1% lactic acid respectively were very low, the combined sanitizer of 20% ethanol and 1% acetic acid, or 1% lactic acid showed very high sterilizing effect toward the yeasts. Six log cfu/ml of the yeast was reduced with this combined sanitizers for 30 minutes. In addition, the combined sanitizer heated from 20 to $50^{\circ}C$ had more the increased sterility. Therefore, the sanitizer of the combined ethanol with the acetic acid or the lactic acid for 30 minutes at $50^{\circ}C$ might reduce or sterilize the putrifying yeast at the processed rice cake. The result might be also applied to the effective pre-treatment of many agricultural food stuffs, against yeast, especially unsterilized stuffs, without any hazards from the special sanitizers and nutritional loss from harsh sterilization.

Sulgiduk is a typical Korean rice cake made by steaming rice powder with syrup and salt added. This study has measured moisture content, water activity, color, texture, and sensory evaluation of sulgiduk when persimmon leaves Powder was added. The material use\ulcorner was sulgiduk to which the 0% (C), l% (S$_1$), 2% (S$_2$), 3% (S$_3$), and 4% (S$_4$) of persimmon leaves powder were added. The moisture content of the raw rice powder for making sulgiduk was 32.40%, and that of the rice powder with syrup added was 37.97%-37.46%. The moisture content of the produced sulgiduk was 38.98%-37.93%, and the water activity was 0.97. In chromatic characteristics. the product had L value: of 73.86-59.16, a value of -2.86~-1.79 and b value: of 19.25-23.13. The texture charicteristics such as hardness, fracturability, gumminess, cohesiveness, chewiness and elasticity were not affected significantly by the persimmon leaves powder. In sensory evaluation. color, flavor, astringency, bitterness and overall quality were adversely affected with statistical significance(p＜001) by the addition of persimmon leaves. The juiciness and softness were also decreased as the persimmon leaves powder increased. In conclusion, it is recommended to add 1-2% of persimmon leaves powder to sulgiduk.

In this study, a Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point (HACCP) plan was developed for the sanitary mass production of commercial Korean rice cake products (Gaepidduk, Injulmi, and Julpyon). The microbiological properties of manufacturing flow were evaluated in order to develop the HACCP Plan. The moisture contents of the rice cakes ranged between 36.2${\sim}$55.3%, whereas the water activity of all samples ranged between 0.954${\sim}$1.0. Microorganisms testing was conducted during various phases of the product flow of Korean rice cake preparation, and included assessments of food equipment, work environment, and cooking employees on a small scale. During the manufacture of Injulmi, Julpyon and Gaepidduk, CCPs were purchasing & storage, steaming and cooling, molding, and holding in the A and B manufactories. At the critical limit of CCPs, storage was conducted below at $5^{\circ}C$ in soybean powder, oil, and paste with redbeans. The steaming process was conducted above at $99^{\circ}C$ for 40 min. Cooling and holding processes were conducted for 2 hours below at $15^{\circ}C$. The molding process included sanitary education for foodhandlers and training for operators. Thus, certain prerequisite programs had to be implemented prior to the implementation of the HACCP system. High levels of bacterial contamination were detected in the aprons worn to work by some employees. Additionally, periodic sanitary education for foodhandlers and training for operators or managers was required. Cross contamination by materials was expected at the place where materials were processed or stored.

This study investigated the effects on the quality characteristics of the korean steamed rice cake, Seolgiddok of the addition of aloe powder at 0%, 1.5%, 3.0%, 4.5% and 6.0% and 4-days storage. The moisture content of the control 0% aloe, steamed rice cake was 47.76%, and steadily decreased with increasing powder addition to the lowest of 37.38% for the cake with 6.0% added. The moisture content was decreased with extending storage time in both the control and powder-added groups. The cohesiveness, springiness, adhesiveness, gumminess and chewiness of the cake tended to decrease with increasing powder content, while the hardness increased with both increasing powder content and extending storage time. The Hunter color value L in the chromaticity of the cake was significantly decreased with increasing powder addition. The a value of the control, 0% aloe steamed cake was -0.86, but became positive with red color with increasing powder content, The b value was significantly increased with increasing powder content. The powder addition inhibited the increase in bacteria number. The sensory characteristics of the cake. such as color, aloe flavor and taste, and bitterness were increased with increasing powder content, while the moist and soft feeling of the cake were more highly evaluated at lower powder content. The overall taste was judged to be best for the sample with 3% added powder. Accordingly, it was expected that a highly functional and healthy product with improved quality might be developed by the addition of aloe powder to the Korean steamed cake, Seolgiddok.

The physicochemical properties of Korean glutinous rice was compared with those of foreign one in order to investigate their appropriateness as raw materials for making rice-cake. The results are summarized as follows: 1) It was found that the Korean ed more crude protein and less total sugar than the foreign one. Therefore, the Korean variety appears to have a higher value of protein. 2) The Korean glutinous rice appeared more plentiful in crude fat and crude fibre content than those of the foreign one. Judging from this fact, it was found out that the Korean glutinous rice had a lower rate of husking and cleaning. 3) The purity of grain in Japanese glutinous rice was highest with 90.2% and the Kyungki glutinous rice was lowest with 47.4%. 4) While showing a low viscosity, the Honam glutinous rice, strange enough, also showed a low dextrinizing temperature.

The effects of soaking and steaming time on the quality characteristics of Korean rice cake (karedduk) were investigated. As the soaking time increased, the water-binding capacity and rice floor solid content also increased. After 8 to 10 hr soaking, 75.2 to $76.8\%$ of particles were smaller than $40\;{\mu}m$, and 23.2 to $24.8\%$ within the range of 40 to $100\;{\mu}m$. Therefore, an extended soaking time reduced the particle size. Texture is an important characteristic used to differentiate karedduk varieties, and is considered by the consumer as a determinant of the overall quality and preference. The hardness, cohesiveness, gumminess and chewiness of the karedduk structure decreased with increasing steaming time, but the springiness was highest after a 40 min steaming time. The overall texture properties were also more acceptable with 8 and 10 hrs soaking times. The L value of the karedduk decreased with increasing steaming time, but the b value increased. Also, the results of the sensory evaluation showed that an 8 hr soaking time and 40 min steaming time produced more acceptable karedduk in terms of whiteness, texture, springiness, chewiness and overall acceptability.

This research was carried to investigate the food preference of students, from elementary school, middle school, high school, university and industrial workers on Jinju, Sacheon and Jinyang by age and sex. The results were obtained as follows. In case of rice as the stationary food, plain white boiled rice showed the highest preference among all the groups. Most of groups liked most of one-dish meals such as kimbab, fried rice with kimchi, dumplings and bibimbab, especially the elementary school students and middle school students. On the other hand, high percentage of industrial workers disliked the western food such as pizza, hamburger and sphagetti. Most of subjects liked jajangmun, nangmun and bibimgooksu as noodles. As the side dishes generally they prefer the soup to stew. Male prefer the soup with beef and female prefer soup with vegetables. Stew with kimchi and stew with soybean paste showed high preference among most of groups. Most of broil food showed high preference, and students prefer meat to fish as broil cooking materials especially younger students. As a general they liked soybean sprout, spinach and wild sesame leaf as namul cooking method and they liked korean cabbage kimchi, chonggak kimchi, kackdoogi and dongchimi as kimchi. As a dessert subjects liked most of fruits and they liked yoghurt, fruit juice, milk, sikhae and soda as drinks generally. On the other hand snacks such as cooky, candy, cake, corn, rice cake, sweet potato have the lowest percentage preferance as a dessert, but students from elementary schools showed the highest preferance to sweet such as cooky, cake and candy than any other group. These food preferance results showed some nutritional problems especially young age students. They should eat more green-yellow vegetables, liver food and dried small sardine and they should reduce snacks such as candy and cooky and soda drinks. Therefore it is necessary to conduct nutrition education by parents, teachers and dietician together to improve their food habits and their health.
