This study investigated the quality, sensory characteristics and commercial potential of a rice snack prepared with dried oyster. Mild and spicy versions of the snack were produced using an oil coating and a mixed seasoning powder coating, respectively. The approximate compositions of the mild snack and spicy snack were 5.13% and 4.78% moisture, 8.92% and 8.94% crude proteins, 17.58% and 20.35% crude lipids, 1.88% and 1.87% ash, and 2% and 1.8% salt, with water activity values of 0.20 and 0.18 and a pH of 6.11 and 6.10, respectively. The color of the mild snack was lighter with more yellow and less red compared with the spicy snack. Thiobarbituric acid levels increased slightly, and hardness decreased slightly during storage at $27{\pm}2^{\circ}C$. The sensory score of the spicy snack was slightly higher than that of the mild snack. These results suggest that the spicy snack might have more commercial potential than that of the mild snack according to its higher sensory test score.

Yogurt base was prepared from skim milk supplemented with 0.2-1.0% (w/v) garlic powder and fermented with lactic acid bacteria (the mixed strain of Lactobacillus acidophilus, Bifidobacterium longum and Streptococcus thermophilus) at 40$^{\circ}C$ for 18 h. Quality characteristics of the prepared yogurt were evaluated for acid production (pH and titratable acidity), number of viable cells, viscosity and sensory properties. The addition of garlic powder inhibited the growth of lactic acid bacteria and decreased the acid production. After 18 h incubation, titratable acidity of garlic yogurt was 1.28-1.08% and was lower than that (1.35%) of yogurt made with only skim milk. However, the viscosity of yogurt was remarkably increased by the addition of garlic powder. The sensory score of yogurt added with 0.2% garlic powder was similar to ordinary yogurt in flavor and overall acceptability. According to sensory score and fermentation characteristics, the optimum concentration of garlic powder was around 0.2%.

The objective of the present study was to compare the chemical, rheological and sensory properties of regular process cheese (control) and cholesterol-reduced block-type process cheese. The cholesterol-reduced process cheese was made by accelerated ripened cholesterol-reduced Cheddar cheese and cholesterol-reduced butter treated by crosslinked $\beta$-cyclodextrin ($\beta$-CD). The composition of the block-type process cheese was similar to the control cheese. Approximately 91.0% of cholesterol removal was observed when treated by crosslinked $\beta$-CD. The production of total free amino acids was significantly higher in cholesterol-reduced process cheese in all storage periods compared with those in the control. In sensory analysis, a significantly higher score of acidic, salty and bitterness. and lower score of elasticity were found. However, no difference was found in free fatty acids, rheological properties, and TBA test between the control and cholesterol-reduced process cheese. Therefore, the present study indicated that even though some of the significant difference was observed in sensory properties in the cholesterol-reduced block-type process cheese, most of chemical and rheological properties were comparable to the control process cheese.

The effects of baking with broccoli powder on the consumer perception and sensory characteristics were investigated using a model system of cookies incorporated with broccoli powder as a value-added food ingredient. Broccoli powder was incorporated into cookie dough at 5 levels (0%, 1%, 2%, 3%, and 4%, w/w) by replacing equivalent amount of wheat flour of the cookie dough. After aging and sheeting, cookies were baked at $170^{\circ}C$ for 8 min in an oven. The baked cookies were cooled to room temperature for 1 hour and packed in airtight bags prior to all measurements. Control received the most favorable mean score, which was not significantly different from samples with 1% broccoli powder for color preference (p>0.05). Results of the consumer preference on taste showed a similar trend. Consumers did not find any significant differences on aftertaste and flavor among samples prepared by replacing wheat flour with up to 2% broccoli powder (p>0.05). Overall, incorporation of 1% broccoli powder in the formulation would result in the most favorable broccoli cookies for the consumers without sacrificing the sensory qualities, while still taking advantages of health benefits of broccoli. Correlation analysis indicated that broccoli powder concentration was significantly negatively correlated with the consumer preference for color, taste, aftertaste, flavor, overall acceptability and positively correlated with sensory color, taste, and flavor (p<0.05). Consumers' color, taste, aftertaste, and flavor were well correlated with the overall acceptability (p<0.05). Sensory intensity results are also presented.

Objectives : This study aimed to investigate value differences among Gastrodiae Rhizoma samples(GM, GC, G1, G2 and G3) in various characteristics as well as to provide basic guideline for various processes such as steaming and drying of Gastrodiae Rhizoma. Methods : Gastrodiae Rhizoma were steamed and dried at different temperature and times. They were divided into samples (GM; cultivated, steamed and dried in Muju, GC; cultivated and dried in China, G1; steamed and dried at $55^{\circ}C$ for 60 hours, G2; steamed and dried at $55^{\circ}C$ for 120 hours, G3; steamed and dried at $70^{\circ}C$ for 120 hours) for experiment. They were extracted using water, freeze dried and powdered to analyze gastrodin content, antioxidant activity and sensory evaluation. Results : Proximate composition and the amount of free sugars of Gastrodiae Rhizoma had a little bit differences. Phenolic and flavonoid content of samples were increased by increasing drying temperature and times. Gastrodin content had different values by drying method and G3 was the highest in comparison with others. Increasing drying times led to a increasing in radical and nitrate scavenging activity in samples. Regarding to sensory evaluation, G3 was selected as the best sample according to its highest hedonic score mean (6.11/7) among all samples for appearance, color, flavor, overall acceptability. Conclusions : The results indicated that G3 sample was effective in views of antioxidant activity, gastrodin content and sensory characteristics. Moreover, Gastrodiae Rhizoma cultivated in Korea were investigated with higher antioxidant activity, gastrodin content and sensory characteristics than those cultivated in China.

Varietal difference of eating quality by milling degree was investigated for total nine rice varieties comprised of three varieties each as excellent, good, and normal according to sensory evaluation results of cooked rice. Nine varieties were analyzed for their physicochemical properties and for the sensory evaluation according to five different degree of milling(5.5~13.5% based on brown rice). Overall score obtained through sensory evaluation was found the best in the milling degree at 9.5% and 11.5%. The overall score by rice variety was categorized into type A that showed high score at milling degree 9.5%, type B at milling degree 11.5%, and similar type C at both milling degrees 9.5% and 11.5%. The best eating quality was observed in Ilmibyeo and Koshihikari having overall eating quality excellent at milling degree 9.5% and in Chucheongbyeo and Dongjinbyeo having overall eating quality good at milling degree 11.5%. While, Palgongbyeo and Nonghobyeo having eating quality normal showed the best eating quality at milling degree 9.5% and 11.5%. Correlation analysis between overall score and physicochemical properties and five sensory evaluation items by three types of rice showed that Mg content and stickiness of type A, protein content and taste of type B, and K content and appearance of type C were highly significant correlation on overall score by panel test. Therefore, Mg contents might have affected on the stickiness of cooked rice in type A, protein contents on the taste in type B, and K contents on the appearance in type C, respectively.
