Properties of dry milled rice flours made of paddy with different moisture content (12.6, 18.4 and 24.4%) were compared with those of wet milled rice flour. Among dry milled rice flour, the higher moisture content of paddy the finer particle size and the more distinct shape of starch were observed. As the moisture content of paddy increased, L (lightness) value and water absorption index of rice flour were increased, while setback in amylogram and water soluble index were decreased. Lower gel consistency and gel strength were found in dry milled rice flours than in wet milled rice flour, while no significant difference was found among dry milled rice flours. Enthalpy for melting crystalline of retrograded gels was higher in dry milled rice flours made of paddy with 24.4% moisture content than in other dry milled rice flours. Wet milled rice flour had lower retrogradation enthalphy than dry milled rice flours.

${\alpha}$-amylase was investigated as an antistaling agent for Backsulgie, a traditional rice cake. Rice powder was mixed with ${\alpha}$-amylase, fermented for 2 hr at 37$^{\circ}C$, and steamed for 20 min. Rice cake was stored at room temperature or freezer for 4 days, and analyzed to determined the changes of chemical and sensory properties. When ${\alpha}$-amylase was added to rice cake, the content of reducing sugars and the yellow color of the cake were increased, and the water activity was decreased. Soft and moist textural properties were apparent in ${\alpha}$-amylase-added rice cakes by sensory evaluation. X-ray diffraction showed a V pattern after 4 days of storage which indicated the starch of rice cake was not retrograded. However, there was no significant difference in moisture content between enzyme-treated and non-treated rice cakes. Above results suggest that ${\alpha}$-amylase treatment produced dextrins which consequently bound with water and inhibited the retrogradation of rice cake.

To improve the quality of rice-cake(Cholpyon), raw starch saccharifying (${\beta}-amylase$ from Bacillus polymyxa No. 26 was used in process of raw rice-cake production. 30g of raw rice flour was incubated with $0{\sim}1,200$ RS units of the enzyme for 5 hr at $45^{\circ}C$, and then steamed and stored for 40 hr at $4^{\circ}C$. In instrumental analysis, control group, which was incubated without addition of (${\beta}-amylase$, was completely hardened after incubation for $12{\sim}24$ hr at $4^{\circ}C$. In contrast, enzyme-treated group was not retrograded, and showed a great differences in hardness, cohesiveness and chewiness. On the other hand, in sensory analysis, the effect of the enzyme treatment was higher values of hardness, moistness, and sweetness than these of control group. Therefore, these results clearly suggested that ${\beta}-amylase$ was fully active to degrade raw rice starch in process of rice-cake production, resulting in improvement of starch retrogradation, good digestibility, and taste.

The experiments were carried out to elucidate the varietal variation of retrogradation in aged cooked rice and its association with some physicochemical properties of milled rice. The fifteen rice materials were selected from forty-three low-amylose japonica and Tongil-type rice cultivars based on palatability and retrogradation of cooked rice stratified by preliminary sensory evaluation of warm and cooled cooked rice. One japonica glutinous rice variety was included for comparison of retrogradation of cooked rice. The $\alpha$-amylase-iodine method was adopted for checking the varietal difference in retrogradation of cooked rice. The desirable checking time for evaluating the varietal difference in deterioration of aged cooked rice was four hours after storing in room temperature and two hours after preserving in refrigerator based on the largest coefficients of variations in degree of retrogradation of cooked rice. The rice cultivars revealing the relatively slow retrogradation in aged cooked rice were Ilpumbyeo, Chucheongbyeo, Sasanishiki, Jinbubyeo and Koshihikari. A Tongil-type rice, Taebaegbyeo, and a japonica cultivar, Seomjinbyeo, showed the relatively fast deterioration of cooked rice. The retrogadation index represented by the percentage of retrogradation difference between warm and cooled cooked rice to original estimates of warm cooked rice was significantly affected by the degree of retrogradation of cooled cooked rice. Generally, the better rice cultivars in eating quality of cooked rice showed less retrogradation and much sponginess in cooled cooked rice. Also, the rice varieties exhibiting less retrogradation in cooled cooked rice revealed higher hot viscosity and lower cool viscosity of rice flour in amylogram. The sponginess of cooled cooked rice was closely associated with magnesium content and volume expansion of cooked rice. The hardness-changed ratio of cooked rice by cooling was negatively correlated with solids amount extracted during boiling and volume expansion of cooked rice. The major physicochemical properties of rice grain closely related to the palatability of cooked rice may be directly or indirectly associated with the retrogradation characteristics of cooked nce. The varietal difference in retrogradation of cooked rice can be effectively classified by scatter diagram on the plane of upper two principal components based on some retrogradation properties of cooked rice. The deteriorated structural change in cooled cooked rice by observing through the scanning electron microscope was more conspicuous in the fastly retrograded cooked rice than in the slower one.

This study was perform to examine the feasibility of cooking processing using the rice added the 70% ethanol extract of pigmented rice bran layer. Four rice samples, including normal rice, glutinous rice, pigmented-normal rice, and pigmented-glutinous rice were compared the properties of physico-chemical, texture, and sensory evaluation. Pigmented rice varieties had a higher amylose content, but shorter length in glucose chains than non-pigmented rice varieties. The enthalpy for gelatinization was found to increase in pigmented rice, which need more energy for gelatinization of starch in cooking. The hydrolysis rate by glucoamylase in rice added pigmented bran extract was higher than pigmented rice. Rice with pigmented bran extract had higher glutamine content, but lower asparagine content and no difference in fatty acid composition, which affect palatability. Cooked rice added pigmented bran extract was less retrograded than pigmented rice during the storage period. Moreover, cooked rice added pigmented bran extract was more acceptable in sensory evaluation. Based on the results, the use of rice added pigmented bran extract instead of pigmented rice in grain processed food have advantageous effects in palatability of polished rice and phytochemicals of pigmented non-polished rice. This study will help develop new health-promoting rice products.

The retrogradation properties of waxy starches isolated from waxy rice(Shin sun, Tong il), waxy barley(Suwon # 227), waxy indian millet. waxy millet and Jobs tears(Yullmoo) were investigated. The extent of retrogradation determined by the glucoamyase method during freeze-thaw treatment and storage in low temperature$(0{\sim}5^{\circ}C)$ showed that six kinds of waxy starches were very slowly retrograded. The order of the retrogradation tendencies of these starches were waxy indian millet > Suwon # 227 Waxy millet > Yullmoo > Tong il > Shin sun. Waxy indian millet and Suwon # 227 starches were distinctively retrograded compared with other starches. Retrogradation properties observed during freeze-thaw 30 cycles were similar to those of storage for 30 days at $0{\sim}5^{\circ}C$. Suwon # 227, which has been the only recommened variety in our nation, was composed of 15% of non-waxy starch and 85% of waxy starch granule.

The thermal properties of typical five Indica and five Japonica rice varieties were investigated by Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC). There was no significant difference in gelatinization temperature between Indica and Japonica varieties, but the average enthalpy of gelatinization was larger in Indica types than that in Japonica. However, the enthalpy of melting of amylose-lipid complex was larger in Japonica types than that in Indica types. The DSC thermogram of hydrolyzed rice residue included a smaller peak of gelatinization with narrow range of temperature. Retrogradation of gelatinized rice kernel was also determined with DSC theremograms. The endothermic peak areas clearly increased with increasing storage time at $4^{\circ}C$ so that the area could be used as a measure of the relative degree of retrogradation. The results indicated that Samgang variety(Indica) retrograded more rapidly than Chuncheong variety(Japonica).

This study, observing each respectively packaged Kongdduk during 12-day storing period and comparing it with unpackaged Kongdduk, through a cross-sectional view of its fiber and temperament, through a sensory evaluation rheometer measurement of rheological change depending on storing period and packaging type and through the organic acid content, micro-organic change, and retrogressive process. The results are as follows: 1. Kongdduk made of bean oil shows better chewiness, cohesiveness, and moistness than Kongdduk made of bean flour while Kongdduk made of bean flour shows better rheological properties as to roasted nutty taste or roasted nutty order. 2. The test of the cutted loaves of Kongdduk shows that adding oil of proper proportion to the dough of steamed rice cake in accordance with the amount of rice flour has a good influence on rheological properties of softness. 3. Rice cakes were prepared by addition of yellow soybean flour or peanut flour and packaged with CMP or VP, and their physical characteristics were monitored by sensory evaluation and mechanical measurement while storing for 6 days. For VP samples, yellow soybean rice cake showed little changes in cohesiveness, moistness and chewiness for 6 days of storage, while pure rice cake and peanut rice cake showed an increase in strength and hardness from the 4th day of storage. In case of CMP, yellow soybean rice cake hardly showed a difference in cohesiveness, moistness and chewiness for 6 days, while pure rice cake and peanut rice cake showed a significant difference from the 4th day in sensory evaluation. 4. For rheometer measurement, yellow soybean rice cake with CMP or VP showed little changes in strength or hardness for 6 days, while peanut rice cake and pure rice cake showed a drastic decrease in cohesiveness, from the End day and adhesiveness from the 4th day of storage. As there was no remarkable difference or deterioration for 6 days of storage in yellow soybean rice cake between CMP and VP, the ingredients of rice cakeappeared to be more important than the type of packaging in terms of quality deterioration of rice cake. 5. As the storing period passed by, organic acid is detected less at CMP-packaged Knngdduk than at wrapped. and its increasing speed proves to be slower as well. 6. The one wrapped with plyethylene film began to get moldy from pure rice cake or Kongdduk (rice cake mixed with yellow soybean or peanut) after 6 days, and more and more modly after 9 daysor after 12 days, but the CMP-packaged ones didn't get modly until 12 days or more. 7. CMP-packaged Kongdduk showed higher enthalpy of retrogradation than PE-wrapped one. As storing Period Passed by, Kongdduk,s enthalpy grew high. That is to say, it shows that Kongdduk got retrograded.

Cooked rices were frozen at four different rates(3, 5, 7 and 12 hr) of maximum ice crystal formation zone and stored at $-20^{\circ}C\;and\;-70^{\circ}C$ for 3 months. Freezing rate, storage temperature and storage period all affected the degree of retrogradation of cooked rice. As the maximum ice crystal formation zone increased from 3 hrs to 12 hrs, the degree of retrogradation of cooked rice increased from 14.9% to 40.0%. Further retrogradation occurred during the freezing storage and cooked rice stored at $-20^{\circ}C$ retrograded faster than that held at $-70^{\circ}C$. The hardness and adhesiveness of frozen cooked rice thawed in $40^{\circ}C$ water were measured. Hardness of the frozen cooked rice was higher than that of non-frozen sample and was higher at lower freezing rate. However, the hardness of cooked rice decreased after 3 months of storage. On the other hand, the adhesiveness decreased during the freezing processing, and adhesiveness decreased more rapidly at a higher freezing rate. However, the adhesiveness of cooked rice increased after 3 months of the storage, and the level of decrease was higher at $-70^{\circ}C$ than at $-20^{\circ}C$. After 3 months of storage, ice crystal size of frozen cooked rice became larger by recrystalization than that of frozen sample prior to storage. Microstructure of cooked rice was damaged by ice crystal formation and its growth when observed by scanning electron microscope.

Effects of storage temperature on the retrogradation of 50% nonwaxy rice flour gels stored at $20^{\circ}C,\;4^{\circ}C\;and\;-18^{\circ}C$ for 6 days were investigated by ${\alpha}-amylase-iodine$ method, differential scanning calorimetry(DSC) and x-ray diffractometry. The retrogradation of gels increased with increasing storage time and the initial retrogradation rate was higher. The degree of retrogradation gels stored at different temperature increased as following order, $-18^{\circ}C>20^{\circ}C>4^{\circ}C$. The enthalpy of retrograded rice flour by DSC showed similar as the degree of retrogradation by ${\alpha}-amylase-iodine$ method, but the differences between storage temperatures were clear in using ${\alpha}-amylase-iodine$ method. X-ray diffraction patterns of gels stored at $4^{\circ}C\;and\;20^{\circ}C$ showed small peaks at $2{\theta}=17^{\circ}\;and\;20^{\circ}$, but the difference was not detected.
