Effects of Takju(Korean turbid rice wine) lees on noodle investigated by substituting Takju lees water extract powder for each 2% and 4% wheat flour in sample II and III, respectively. The lightness(L) of uncooked noodles was decreased, whereas that of cooked noodles was increased with increasing amount of extract added. Redness(a) and difference of total color(${\Delta}$E) were significantly increased according to the amount of extract added in uncooked and cooked noodles. Yellowness(b) of the noodles containing 2% Takju lees water extract powder was exhibited lowest values in uncooked and cooked noodles. In cooking property of noodles, turbidity of soup decreased in proportion to amount of extract added, 2% and 4% in sample II and III, respectively whereas the weight and volume of noodles were not significant than those of control. Tension of cooked noodle was highest in sample II and lowest in sample III. Texture profile analysis of cooked noodle showed an significant increase of hardness in addition of Takju lees water extract powder but not significant different in springiness, chewiness, adhesiveness. Cohesiveness was significantly lowest in sample II. The sensory evaluation showed that significant difference between noodles with 2% addition groups and control was not recognized but was recognized 4%. Therefore, based on cooking properties and sensory evaluation, Takiu lees water extract powder up to 4% could be substituted for wheat flour.

This study was performed to evaluate the quality characteristics of curd yogurt with different contents [0.5~2.0% (w/w)] of Korean rice wine lees powder (KRWLP). Yogurt was fermented with commercially available mixed lactic acid bacteria (Lactobacillus acidophilus, Bifidobacterium longum, Streptococcus thermophiles) at $40^{\circ}C$ for 15 h. Acid production (pH and titratable acidity) of yogurts increased with increasing KRWLP content. After 12 hours fermentation, titratable acidity of KRWLP yogurt was 1.19~1.29 % and was higher than that (1.07 %) of yogurt made without KRWLP. And also, the number of viable lactic acid bacterial cell increased and the culture time to obtain maximum number of lactic acid bacteria cell decreased with the addition of KRWLP. The curd stability in yogurt was significantly enhanced by repression of whey separation in KRWLP yogurt. In sensory evaluation, there was a similar preference for KRWLP yogurts and the control. These results suggest that KRWLP can be used as foodstuff to improve the quality characteristics of yogurt.

This study was carried out to determine the effect of enzymatically saccharified Korean rice wine lees powder (eKRWLP) on the quality characteristics and storage stability of curd yogurt. Yogurt with different contents [0.5-2.0% (w/w)] of eKRWLP was incubated with commercially available mixed lactic acid bacteria (Lactobacillus acidophilus, Streptococcus thermophilus, Bifidobacterium longum) at $40^{\circ}C$ for 18 h. The production of acid measured at pH and titratable acidity of yogurts increased with increasing eKRWLP content. After 12 h fermentation, titratable acidity of eKRWLP yogurt was 0.77-0.90% and was higher than that (0.72%) of yogurt made without eKRWLP. The viable cell counts of lactic acid bacteria in eKRWLP yogurts were increased in proportion to the addition of eKRWLP, and increased up to 8.01-8.13 log CFU/g after 12 h incubation. The repressive effect of whey separation in eKRWLP yogurt curd significantly decreased than that in Korean rice wine lees powder (KRWLP) yogurt. With sensory evaluation, yogurt with 0.5% eKRWLP obtained the highest scores among all eKRWLP yogurts. When eKRWLP yogurts and the control preparations fermented for 12 h were incubated at $4^{\circ}C$, their pHs and titratable acidities were slightly changed and the number of viable lactic acid bacteria were well maintained above $10^7CFU/g$ for 16 days.

Yogurt was prepared with different substitution ratio [10, 20, 30, and 50% (w/w)] of skim milk with enzymatically saccharified Korean rice wine lees powder (eKRWLP) and fermented with commercially available mixed lactic acid bacteria (Bifidobacterium longum, Lactobacillus acidophilus, Streptococcus thermophilus) at $40^{\circ}C$ for 18 h. Fermentation characteristics were evaluated in terms of acid production (pH and titratable acidity) and viable cell counts of lactic acid bacteria. The pH of yogurts decreased with increasing eKRWLP substitution ratio of skim milk. After 12 h fermentation, titratable acidities of eKRWLP substitution and control (yogurt made without eKRWLP) were 0.84~1.04% and 0.93%, respectively. The titratable acidities of yogurts prepared with 10 and 20% substitution ratio increased than that of the control yogurt, but titratable acidities of yogurts of 30 and 50% substitution ratio decreased. After 9 h fermentation, the number of viable lactic acid bacterial cell were increased to 8.18~8.24 log CFU/g in all yogurts. In sensory evaluation, there were similar preference for eKRWLP yogurts prepared with 10 and 20% substitution ratio and the control. When eKRWLP substitution and control yogurts fermented for 9 h were incubated at $4^{\circ}C$, their pHs and titratable acidities were slightly changed but the number of viable lactic acid bacteria were well maintained above $10^7CFU/g$ for 11 days in yogurts prepared with 10 and 20% substitution ratio among eKRWLP substitution yogurts. These results suggest that eKRWLP can be used as substituent of skim milk and the optimum substitution ratio is around 10~20%.
