The purpose of this study was to investigate quality characteristics of Seolgidduk containing 0, 3, 5, 7 and 9％ Poria cocos Wolf powder during the storage at 2$0^{\circ}C$ by measuring water content, color value, texture and sensory characteristics. By increasing the amount of Poria cocos Wolf powder, water content of Seolgidduk did not show any significant difference during storage. Hunter color L value of Seolgidduk decreased, and a and b value increased significantly by increasing the amount of Poria cocos Wolf powder. The cohesiveness of Seolgidduk decreased but adhesiveness, gumminess and chewiness were not significantly different by increasing the amount of Poria cocos Wolf powder. 3％ Poria cocos Wolf added Seolgidduk was the highest in color, odor, taste, softness, moistness and overall preference from the sensory evaluation. Above results indicated that 3％ Poria cocos Wolf added Seolgidduk showed the best quality through sensory and texture analysis.

A study was conducted to investigate the effects of Poria cocos powder on dough rheology and wet noodle quality. Poria cocos powder had considerably lower content of crude protein, crude fat and crude ash than those of wheat flour. Poria cocos powder had also much bigger particle size $(74.62\;{\mu}m)$ and larger surface area $(3884.13\;cm^2/g)$ than those of wheat flour. The peak, final viscosities and setback in amylograph increased with the increase of Poria cocos powder concentration. The water absorption and dough stability in farinograph increased with the increase of Poria cocos powder concentration. With the increase of Poria cocos powder, the L values decreased in wheat flour-Poria cocos powder blend and dough, but increased in wet noodles. The cooked weight and volume of cooked noodles decreased, but the turbidity of soup increased with the increase of Poria cocos powder concentration. The hardness, cohesiveness, chewiness and springiness of cooked noodles had the biggest values at 3% addition of Poria cocos powder, but the values decreased above that concentration. The sensory evaluation of cooked noodles showed that the wet noodles with high quality could be produced by $5{\sim}7%$ addition of Poria cocos powder.

In this study, we attempted to assess the efficacy of a method to improve the quality of prepared bread via the addition Poria cocos powder to wheat flour at a range of concentrations from $0{\sim}5%$. The approximate composition for Poria cocos powder was as follow: moisture 7.67%, crude protein 0.61%, crude fat 0.58%, crude ash 0.32%, and crude fiber 0.30%, when using the flour to which the Poria cocos powder had been added, specific volume, falling number, and dough yield values all increased with increasing concentrations of added Poria cocos powder. The result of our microscopic observations revealed a relative scarcity of larger starch granules, and the bread prepared with the Poria cocos powder evidenced a sparse structure. With regard to the Hunters color value measurements, the L value decreased with increasing concentrations of Poria cocos powder. but the a and b values evidenced an inverse relationship with the concentration of added powder. The texture, hardness, and adhesiveness characteristics of the bread decreased with increasing concentration of added Poria cocos powder. but the gumminess and chewiness of the bread increased. However, we noted no significant differences in the springiness and cohesiveness characteristics among the experimental groups assessed herein. In the sensory evaluation, the quality of the 2% or 3% Poria cocos powder breads was optimal in terms of its taste and flavor.

This study was conducted to promote fish paste made with white poria cocos wolf powder as a food. The tested concentrations of the powder were 0, 1, 3, 5, and 7%. All the fish paste samples had 37% water content. For the Hunter color values of samples, L-values decreased but a- and b-values increased with increasing concentrations of the powder. In addition, the folding test scores of all samples were good (AA). In the texture tests, brittleness increased where as springiness decreased with increasing concentrations of the powder. In the sensory evaluations, color, flavor, hardness, and cohesiveness scores increased, and sleekness and oily taste scores decreased, with increasing concentrations of the powder. The fish paste containing 3% white poria cocos wolf powder (3WPWP) had the highest acceptance scores for appearance, flavor, taste, texture, and overall quality. These results suggest that white poria cocos wolf powder can be applied to fish paste to increase its quality.

The cultivation of Poria cocos on tree-stumps and logs, was first described at the beginning of the 13th century. Poria cocos has been used for medicinal purposes to treat physical and mental recuperation, promote diuresis, forgetfulness and physical weakening. The artificial cultivation techniques of P. cocos was reported in China in 1957. are reported. The basic study on morphological characteristics and artificial cultivation method of Poria cocos with pine tree log buried under ground were initiated by Rural Development Administration. To widen the utilization of harvested sclerotia of Poria cocos as new food stuffs, powder of the sclerotia were used for producing new soft drinks and supplemented to wheat flour to make functional bread. Last 30 years, the supply of P. cocos in Korea through cultivation could not meet the domestic demand, Korea collected P. cocos in the mountainous areas and also import the sclerotia from China. Since the domestic demand of the sclerotia in China increased, the price of imported sclerotia of P. cocos also increased. Recently, high-quality and high-yielding cultivation methods were developed in Gyeongbuk Agricultural Research and Extension Services (GARES). The new cultivation methods of P. cocos developed by GARES was to change traditional cultivation method from under ground to above ground cultivation house, and shortened cultivation period by half, and improved the quality of the sclerotia. Therefore, it is suggested that advanced new technology for production of sclerotia of P. cocos from under ground and above ground must be developed for fullfil the domestic demand of the sclerotia.

In this research, to modernize traditional food and to make functional bokryung-byung, bokryung-byungwas made with Poriacocos Wolf powder added. During its storage, its moisture content ranged from 42.89 to 44.85%. The control group had the highes tmoisture content (44.85%), and it was reduced significantly as the Poriacocos Wolf powder in creased. The longer the storage period was, the lower the pH and the higher the acidity was. The total bacterial count increased from 2.70 to 3.00 Log CFU/g right after the manufacture and increased rapidly on the fourth day of the storage with more than 7.00 Log CFU/g. There was no difference between the control group and the bokryung-byung, though. The Hunter's color value after the manufacture, with the increase in the added Poriacocos Wolf powder, showed a significantly reduced brightness, but significantly increased redness and yellowness. Their chromaticity did not change, how ever, during their storageat a temperature of $20^{\circ}C$. The hardness, solidity, gumminess, and cohesiveness of the bokryung-byung increased, unlike in the control group, and its brittleness increased. In terms of the overall preference, the preference for the control group was high, but was higher when 5 % Poria cocos Wolf powder was added during the manufacture of the bokryung-byung. As a result of these correlations, it is believed that elastic and chewy dduks are preferred and bokryung-byungs could be developed as functional dduks.
