This study evaluated the quality characteristics and antioxidant activities of Spergularia marina L. Griseb powder from halophyte plants added to noodles at ratios of 0%, 0.5%, 1.0%, 1.5%, and 2.0% in order to examine its applicability as a substitute for salt. For quality characteristics of noodles with Spergularia marina L. Griseb powder, pH increased (p<0.05) and salinity decreased (p<0.01) with higher added Spergularia marina L. Griseb powder content. Water absorption ratio decreased (p<0.01) while turbidity decreased (p<0.001) with greater addition of Spergularia marina L. Griseb powder. However, volume expansion ratio increased with greater addition of Spergularia marina L. Griseb powder, but there was no significant difference. For chromaticity, L value and a value decreased (p<0.001) while b value increased (p<0.001) with greater addition of Spergularia marina L. Griseb powder. For texture, hardness (p<0.001), gumminess (p<0.001), and cohesiveness (p<0.01) increased with greater amount of added Spergularia marina L. Griseb powder; however, there were no significant differences in adhesiveness, springiness, and chewiness according to the amount of added Spergularia marina L. Griseb powder. In the sensory evaluation, for color, the score was 5.55 points when 1.5% Spergularia marina L. Griseb powder was added, which was the best preference (p<0.001); for flavor, preference was best (5.64 points) when 2.0% Spergularia marina L. Griseb powder was added; for taste, preference was best (5.36 points) (p<0.001) when 2.0% Spergularia marina L. Griseb powder was added; for overall preference (overall quality) the score was 5.55 points when 1.0% Spergularia marina L. Griseb powder was added, which was the best preference (p<0.001). For antioxidant activities, antioxidant activities including total phenol content, total flavonoid content, and DPPH free radical scavenging activity increased (p<0.001) with the amount of added Spergularia marina L. Griseb powder. As a result of the above research, preference was the highest and quality was excellent overall when 1.0% Spergularia marina L. Griseb powder was added. Thus, addition of 1.0% Spergularia marina L. Griseb instead of salt would be desirable.

In this study, sponge cakes were prepared with replacement of 1, 3, and 5% spergularia marina griseb powder. The specific gravity tended to increase as the ratio of spergularia marina griseb powder increased. The control group had higher moisture content, volume, and specific volume than the spergularia marina griseb powder samples. As the amounts of spergularia marina griseb powder increased, L and b value increased. In terms of textural characteristics, Sponge cake levels of hardness, springiness, cohesiveness, chewiness and brittleness increased as the amount of spergularia marina griseb powder additive increased. In the sensory evaluation, overall acceptability of 3% spergularia marina griseb powder was the highest. Based on the above results, sponge cake, made by addition of 3% spergularia marina griseb could be helpful in improving physical quality as well as taste enhanc the functionality of the product.

In this study, the quality characteristics of cookies with the addition of Spergularia marina Griseb powder (SMGP) were investigated and analyzed by through chemical and sensory evaluation. Cookies were prepared with different levels of SMGP (0, 1, 3, and 9%). Their moisture and crude protein contents decreased after the addition of SMGP, as did their spread factor (p<0.05). Their Hunter's color L and a values significantly decreased with the increase in SMGP level, whereas their b value increased (p<0.05). In the texture analysis, the hardness of the cookies increased according to the increase in concentration of SMGP and showed a significantly high level in the cookies with the addition of 9% SMGP (p<0.05). In the sensory evaluation, the cookies with the addition of 3% and 9% of SMGP had the highest scores in flavor, taste, and texture (p<0.05). The cookies with 3% SMGP addition had the best score in total acceptability. This study suggests that SMGP is a good ingredient for improving the acceptability and functionality of cookies.
