Noodle texture parameters of Korean style wet and dry noodles and relationships between noodle quality and flour characteristics were evaluated for two years, 1997 and 1998, and at two locations, Suwon and Deokso, using Korean winter wheat cultivars and lines. No significant difference for chewiness was found between cultivars over locations. Noodles made from flours from 1997 showed significantly higher chewiness than those from 1998. Chewiness of cooked noodles showed positively significant correlations with protein content and SDS sedimentation volume and negatively significant correlations with starch peak viscosity and flour swelling volume. Korean winter wheat cultivars, except for Gobunmil, Keumkangmil Tapdongmil, Suwon 265 and Suwon 280, showed chewiness of cooked noodles similar to commercial flours used for noodle making in Korea and Japan.

Wet noodles were prepared with wheat flour and mushroom powder (oyster and oak mushrooms), and effects of added mushroom powders on dough rheology and wet noodle quality were examined. Particle size distribution of mushroom powder ranged from 0.04 to $500\;{\mu}m$, which was different from that of wheat flour. The initial pasting temperature in amylograph, and the water absorption and the dough development time in farinograph increased with the increase of mushroom powder. The peak and final viscosities in amylograph, and dough stability in farinograph decreased with the increase of mushroom powder. Decrease of L value and increase of a and b values were shown with the increase of mushroom powder in wheat flour-mushroom powder composite as well as wet noodles. The cooked weight and volume of cooked noodles were decreased, but the turbidity of soup were increased with the addition of mushroom powder. Most of texture parameters (hardness, cohesiveness, chewiness and cutting force) of cooked noodles decreased with the addition of oyster mushroom powder, but increased with the addition of oak mushroom powder. From the result of sensory evaluation, wet noodles containing 3% oyster mushroom powder and 5% oak mushroom powder were rated as high quality wet noodles.

To establish an optimum formula for processing wet noodles with steam-dried Hizikia fusiformis flour(SHF), it was incorporated into wheat flour by the ratio of 0, 1, 3, 5, 10 and 20% based on a flour weight. Application of 2% mehthylcelluose(MC) to improve the texture of noodles mixed with SHF was also attempted. Evaluation was performed on the dough rheology and wet noodle quality, such as cooking characteristics, mechanical texture properties, sensory value and shelf-life. Water absorption rate of the composite flour increased linearly as the content of SHF increased from 1% to 10%, and noodle sheet-formation was also acceptable in the same content level. The weight and volume of cooked noodles were decreased, and turbidity of soup was, if exceeding more than 5% of SHF, increased constantly. However, these problems could be remarkably resolved in SHF plus 2% MC. Texture profile analysis of cooked noodles showed an increase of hardness, gumminess, and chewiness up to 5% SHF. The results of sensory evaluation showed that cooked noodles containing 5% SDF were acceptable as much as wheat four noodles in terms of color, texture, taste and flavor. Based on cooking properties, rheological and sensory evaluation, addition of 5% SHF plus 2% MC was suggested to be suitable for making wet noodles, of which the shelf-life was estimated to be 8 days at $5^{\circ}C$.

End-use properties of six Korean waxy wheat lines and their parental plants were evaluated in this study. Korean waxy wheat lines showed unsuitable characteristics for end products, such as sticky crumb of bread, sticky cooked wet and dry noodles and small cookie diameter. Korean waxy wheat lines produced lower loaf volume and less desirable crumb grain structure of bread, and lower chewiness of cooked wet and dry noodles than their parental plants even though Korean waxy wheats were much higher in protein content and SDS-sedimentation volume than their parental plants. We observed adverse effects of high flour protein content in Korean waxy wheat lines, such as smaller cookie diameter and harder snapping force than those produced from their parental plants.

In this study, we investigated the quality and antioxidant activity of wet noodles fortified by adding brown rice and sorghum powders. Wet noodles were divided into four groups: WN-p (wheat flour 100%, purified salt 2%), WBN-b (wheat flour 80%, brown rice powder 20%, bamboo salt (${\times}1$) 2%), WBSN-b (wheat flour 80%, brown rice powder 10%, sorghum powder 10%, bamboo salt (${\times}1$) 2%), and WSN-b (wheat flour 80%, sorghum powder 20%, bamboo salt (${\times}1$) 2%). The wet noodles were evaluated for their quality characteristics and capacities to scavenge free radicals. The weight, volume, capacity to absorb water, and turbidity of cooked WBSN-b were close to those of cooked WN-p. Springiness, cohesiveness, and chewiness of cooked WBSN-b were the highest among all cooked noodles added with brown rice or sorghum powders and textural properties of cooked WBSN-b were not significantly different from WN-P. In the sensory evaluation, the overall acceptance of WBSN-b received the highest score of 6.4 points, which was higher than the score for WN-p. DPPH and hydroxyl radical scavenging activities increased significantly with addition of brown rice and sorghum powder, and radical scavenging activities of WBSN-b and WSN-b were the highest. In conclusion, wet noodles added with 10% brown rice powder, 10% sorghum powder, and 2% bamboo salt (${\times}1$) exhibited the same quality properties of WN-p. Addition of 10% brown rice powder, 10% sorghum powder, and 2% bamboo salt (${\times}1$) increased the sensory and antioxidant activities of wheat flour noodles.

The principal objective of this study was to determine the effects of wheat flour ferment cultured with Lactobacillus acidophilus, specifically with regard to the preservation of noodles. The results showed that the addition of ferment to wheat flour during noodle preparation reduced the pH of the noodles, and no significant difference was observed in the L and ${\Delta}E$ values of the noodles adding 5% ferment. Total bacterial levels were decreased in the wet noodles to which more than 10% ferment was added, by a factor of log $10^3$ as compared to the levels seen in the control during storage. Deterioration became apparent at 4 days of storage in regular wet noodles, but did not occur until 6 days in the wet noodles to which 5% ferment was added, and not until 8 days of storage in the noodles to which 10% ferment was added. Cooked noodles deteriorated at 8 days after the beginning of storage, but the addition of 5% and 10% ferment extended that time to 12 days and 14 days, respectively. It was concluded that flour ferment cultured with L. acidophilus exerts favorable preservation effects on noodles and breads.

Wet noodles with different percentages of Curcuma Ionga L. powder(CLP) as an additive were generated and their cooking characteristics were evaluated. Wheat flour with 8% CLP had the highest water binding capacity and breakdown, while setback was reversed. Cooked noodle characteristics, weight, volume and tensile strength decreased as CLP content of wheat flour increased, but turbidity of the soup was reversed. L value of wet noodles was higher than cooked noodles, while b value, and texture of wet noodles were lower than cooked noodles. Hunter color value and texture measurements demonstrated decreasing L value, springiness and cohesiveness but increasing b value, hardness, gumminess and chewiness with increasing CLP content. In sensory evaluations, noodles made with 4% CLP were most highly preferred, while noodles made with 2% and 8% CLP were less preferred than CLP-free prepared noodles.

This study investigated the quality characteristics and antioxidant activities of wet noodles as well as their cooking properties following the addition of peanut sprout extract (PSE) and powder (PSP), which are known to contain a significant level of resveratrol. Wet noodles were prepared with 0, 2.5, 5, 7.5 and 10% PSE and PSP. Quality characteristics such as increasing volume of noodle, water ratio, turbidity of cooking water and color, texture, and sensory evaluation were then assessed. Additionally, the total resveratrol content in the cooked noodles was analyzed by HPLC and DPPH free radical scavenging capacity. As the amount of PSE and PSP increased, the L value of wet and cooked noodles significantly decreased, whereas the a and b values increased (p<0.001). The L value of cooked noodles was significantly lower compared to wet noodles (p<0.001) whereas the a and b values were higher. For the cutting intensity properties of the cooked noodles, hardness was reduced with increasing amounts of PSE (p<0.001), and was significantly increased in proportion to the amount of PSP (p<0.05). Meanwhile, springiness was not significantly different in all groups. Total resveratrol content and free radical scavenging activity significantly increased in proportion to the amounts of PSE and PSP (p<0.001), especially in noodles containing 5%, 7.5% and 10% PSE and PSP. Finally, sensory evaluation of PSE noodle revealed that color, flavour, taste were significantly decreased (p<0.05). But there was no difference in overall acceptance among cooked noodles with 2.5% to 5% PSE comparison to the control. Sensory characteristics in the PSP noodle showed similar results. In conclusion, these findings suggest that peanut sprout extract and powder could be potentially used as functional food ingredients. In addition, up to 5% PSE and PSP can be substituted for wheat flour.

This study was performed to provide basic data that will predict the usefulness of buckwheat sprout as food materials. The quality characteristics of noodles prepared with buckwheat sprout powder were investigated The buckwheat sprout powder was added to the noodles in 0, 2, 4, 6, and $8\%$ in proportion to the weight of wheat flour, respectively. The added amounts of buckwheat sprout powder did not affect the volume of the noodles. The weight of noodles was decreased, whereas tumidity of the soup after cooking the noodles was increased with the increment of the amount of added buckwheat sprout powder. The color of powder mixture, wet noodles, and cooked noodles was changed by the addition of buckwheat sprout powder. Lightness(L) was decreased, whereas yellowness(b) and redness(a) increased as the amount of buckwheat sprout powder increased. In the texture analysis, hardness and chewiness of wet noodles were increased significantly by the addition of buckwheat sprout powder. Hardness, chewiness, and gumminess increased significantly in the cooked noodles with more than $6\%$ substitution of buckwheat sprout powder. Other textural properties did not show any significant changes. The results of sensory evaluation revealed that the overall preference of noodles with 2 to $4\%$ substitution of buckwheat sprout powder was better than other sample groups. Therefore, the appropriate amount of addition for the buckwheat sprout noodles was 2 to $4\%$ buckwheat sprout powder in proportion to the weight of wheat flour.

This study evaluated the quality characteristics of wet noodles added with sword bean powder(0, 5, 10, 15%) to determine the most preferred noodle recipe for consumer's desire. The proximate composition of the sword bean powder was as follows: Moisture contents were $13.4{\pm}0.08%$, protein $30.2{\pm}0.12%$, fat $0.3{\pm}0.09%$, protein $1.0{\pm}0.11%$ and carbohydrates $55.1{\pm}0.12%$, respectively. Total amino acid content of sword bean powder was measured 23,054.266 mg/100 g, especially in the order of histidine, glutamic acid and aspartic acid. The flavonoid content of sword bean powder was 17.9750 mg%. Water-binding capacity increased as the level of sword bean powder increased. When viscosity of wheat flours containing sword bean powder was measured by amylograph, the gelatinization point increased significantly as the level of sword bean powder increased, but peak viscosity decreased. As the level of sword bean powder increased, L value decreased, whereas a and b values increased. Weight, water absorption and volume of cooked noodles prepared with wheat flours containing sword bean powder decreased, whereas turbidity of soup increased. For textural properties, addition of sword bean powder increased hardness, springiness, chewiness of cooked noodles, whereas adhesiveness decreased. According to sensory evaluation such as appearance, color, flavor, taste, texture, overall preference, it was revealed noodles with 10% sword bean powder was the most preferred. According to the results, the addition of sword bean powder positively affects the overall sensory evaluation of wet noodle, and 10% is the optimal level for addition.
