This study sought to investigate the effects of heat-moisture treatment (HMT) and ethanol treatment (EOH) for improving the quality and storage stability of Tteokbokki Tteok. The quality characteristics were evaluated by moisture, pH, color, texture profile analysis, and observing the microbial properties after the heat-moisture treatment or ethanol treatment. As the storage period increased, the moisture content of Tteokbokki Tteok tended to decrease except for the HMT group (p<0.05) while the pH did not show significant variation except for the EOH group (p<0.05). While measuring the color, the L-value tended to increase in all groups during the storage period. The a-value and the b-value showed the highest values in the HMT group and the control (CON) group, respectively. In the texture profile analysis, all groups showed a significant tendency to increase levels of hardness and chewiness as the storage period increased (p<0.05). The HMT group showed an increase in hardness and adhesiveness, which are characteristics of the HMT treatment. The results of examining the microbial properties of Tteokbokki Tteok showed that the total microbial count in the HMT group was 4.52 on the 8^th day of storage, which was lower than the level in the CON group and the EOH group on the 4^th day of storage. Yeast and mold were not measured during the storage period. Thus the results of this study showed that when manufacturing Tteokbokki Tteok, the heat-moisture treatment of rice powder increased the storage stability by delaying microbial growth and also had positive effects on quality.

This study aims to investigate the physical properties of extruded psyllium husk upon the addition of emulsifiers. Three different emulsifiers-glycerol monostearate (GMS), polyglycerol ester (PGE), and sugar ester (SE)-were added to the mixture of psyllium husk and rice powder before extrusion. Extrusion was performed using a twin-screw extruder at 140℃ die temperature, 200 rpm screw speed, and 16% feed moisture content. The physical properties of psyllium husk extrudates including expansion ratio, specific length, piece density, texture profile, color properties, water soluble index, and water absorption index were evaluated. It was observed that the expansion ratio was the highest while the specific length and piece density were the lowest in the control which had no emulsifiers. Texture profile analysis showed that the apparent elastic modulus and breaking strength were highest in the extrudate with a PGE of 0.1%. The adhesiveness was found to be lowest in the extrudates with an SE of 0.1% and GMS of 0.5%. Lightness value was highest in the extrudate with a PGE of 0.1%. Color difference, water soluble index, and water absorption index were highest in the control. The results reveal that some physical properties of extruded psyllium husk were improved with the addition of emulsifiers. This finding provides useful information for the development of psyllium snacks with good physical characteristics.

This study investigated the quality characteristics of apple jam added with ginger. The apple jam was prepared with apples, sugar, lemon juice and various amounts (0, 2, 4, 6, 8%) of ginger. Increasing the amount of ginger decreased moisture contents and sugar content of the jam, whereas the pH gradually increased. In addition, with increased amount of ginger, the lightness(L) and yellowness(b) significantly decreased, while redness(a) gradually decreased. There wasn't any significant difference in the samples with up to 4% ginger(p<0.05). In the texture profile analysis, hardness and adhesiveness increased significantly with increased amount of ginger. When more amount of ginger was added, cohesiveness increased with no significant difference based on the amount of ginger. With increased amount of ginger, springiness and chewiness gradually increased. The results of the sensory evaluation show that the apple jam added with 4% ginger got the highest overall-acceptability scores. In conclusion, it is possible to enhance the quality and acceptability of apple jam by adding 4% ginger.

The purpose of this study was to examine the quality characteristics of white pan bread according to the different types of water (tap water (still water), purified water, still water, light water, classical water, and bold water). Pan breads were statistically analyzed using texture profile analysis, fermentation, texture, suitability, image analysis, color, moisture content, and statistical analysis. This result will contribute to the commercialization of pan bread using various kinds of water. Ultimately, we analyzed the quality characteristics of various kinds of water, depending on the carbonic acid content on the dough and the pan bread, and to derive the optimum kinds and ratios of the water to be applied to the pan bread. As a result of the study, the best findings were obtained with water containing carbonic acid content more than the classical water according to overall characteristics, durability (Width of Tail and Integral), foot efficiency, softness, volume and preference check. Therefore, when white pan bread is produced by using water containing a carbonic acid content (5~7.5 mg/L) or more of the classical water, it affects the quality characteristics and a good obtains positive response to from consumers. In this study, the quality characteristics of pan bread based different kinds of water which were not available in the past, and the quality characteristics of pan bread, which can be used as the basic data for future research, were well analyzed.

This study was attempted to investigate the sensory and textural characteristics of mungbean starch gels with soy bean oil and sucrose fatty acid ester(SE) addition during room temperature storage. Freshly prepared mungbean starch gels, with and without soy bean oil and SE, were stored at 25$^{\circ}C$ for 24, 48 and 72 hours. The color value, syneresis, texture and sensory properties of the gels were measured. The lightness(L) of the gels with soy bean oil and without additives was similar whereas that with SE was lower than that without additives. Syneresis of the gels with soy bean oil and SE was lower than that without additives. Rupture stress, rupture strain and rupture energy of the freshly prepared gel with 2∼4% soy bean oil were increased, but there were no differences in rupture properties between the gel with soy bean oil and that without additives. Rupture stress, rupture stain and rupture energy of all the gels with SE were decreased. Addition of soy bean oil to the gel did not change the texture profile of the gel, whereas hardness, springiness and chewiness of the gel with SE were decreased. In sensory evaluation, the acceptability of freshly prepared gel with soy bean oil was similar to that without additives, whereas that of the gel with 2% soy bean oil stored for 24 hours was higher than that without additives. The acceptability of the gel with SE was decreased significantly.

Quality changes of sausages in refrierated storage for 60 days were investigated. Nine types of sausages produced in Korea were stored at 4$^{\circ}C$(3~5$^{\circ}C$), and then chemical, microbiological, and sensory characteristics were evaluated on every 10 days. The proximate analysis showed considerable variation in fat (23.97%, 17.10~30.20%) with less variation in moisture (51.96%, 48.10~56.30%) and protein (12.96%, 11.40~13.95%), pH value decreased over time averaging from 6.31 to 6.22 with no significant difference. Water activity was consistent over refrigerated storage averaging 0.95. Volatile basic nitrogen (VBN) values were still within 20 mg% though VBN for all types significantly increased over time (p<0.05). Thiobarbituric acid (TBA) values were well below 1.0 though TBA showed significant differences among storage periods (p<0.05). Standard plate counts (SPCs) significantly increased during storage (p<0.05) while coliform group was not counted in all cases. SPCs reached 104 CFU/g in two types after 50 days' storage and were below 105 CFU/g in all types after 60 days' storage. Instrumental texture analysis showed that springiness, adhesiveness, and hardness signficantly decreased over time (p<0.05) while no change was observed in external color. significantly decreased over time the 60-day storage period (p<0.05) while cohesiveness, chewiness and gumminess did not change. Lightness, redness and yellowness of the internal Hunter color significantly decreased over time (p<0.05) while no change was observed in external color. Sensory profile showed that flavor, taste, texture and overall acceptable after 60 days' storage at 4$^{\circ}C$. However, the shelf-life of the samples should be decided in the consideration of the growth rate other spoilage flora coupled with the bacterial growth after 50 days' storage.

The objective of this study was to investigate the quality and sensory characteristics of yanggaeng prepared with different amounts of ginseng paste. Ginseng paste was incorporated with yanggaeng at a range of different levels of 5~15% based on the total weight of water. The pH and total acidity of yanggaeng were 6.35~6.49% and 0.03~0.07%, respectively. The sugar content of yanggaeng in the control was $25.0^{\circ}Brix$ and showed proportional increases up to $25.0{\sim}29.7^{\circ}Brix$ with increasing levels of ginseng paste. In terms of the texture profile analysis, the hardness and adhesiveness of yanggaeng decreased but the cohesiveness, gumminess, and chewiness increased compared to the control and ginseng paste added treatments. In color value determination, the $L^*$ and $a^*$ values decreased but the $b^*$ value increased with increasing levels of ginseng paste. The sensory evaluation indicated that the yanggaeng contained up to 15% ginseng paste and showed similar flavor, taste, texture, and overall acceptance in the control. These results suggest that ginseng paste is an ingredient that can enhance the quality and sensory potential of yanggaeng.

This study was to examine the effect of functional properties of soy protein isolate(SPI) and qualities of soybean curd upon proteolytic hydrolysis. SPI was hydrolyzed using proteolytic enzyme, bromelain. The protein content of SPI by microkjeldahl method was 84% and the degree of hydrolysis in modified soy protein isolate(MSPI) was 2.7%. The solubility of MSPI was higher than that of control at various pH tested and proteolytic hydrolysis was increased emulsion formation and foam expansion while decreased emulsion stability, foam stability and calcium precipitation. Modified soybean curdI, standard soybean milk: Modified soybean milk=3:1, was soft and springy soybean curd when the texture properties of soybean curd were tested by texture profile analysis using Instron and sensory evaluation. The rheological model of soybean curds was investigated by stress relaxation test. The analysis of relaxation curve revealed that the rheological behavior of soybean curds could be expressed by 7-element generalized Maxwell model. The equilibrium modulus and modulus of elasticity decreased as the ratio of modified soybean milk was increased.

The objective of this study was to seek the best recipe for making Gamdanja. Gamdanja is a kind of rice cake made from persimmon extract and winy flour, with a little salt mixed into the waxy flour. The method involved boiling the persimmon extract and beating in the waxy rice powder until all the waxy flour had been added. The procedure was as follows: Gamdanja containing different ratios of ingredients, such as persimmon extract (23, 23.5 and 24 hrs) and waxy rice flour (160 and 180g). The most desirable recipe was determined after sensory examination and mechanical tests using texture, moisture content and colorimeter measurements. The results of the sensory evaluation showed that Gamdanja made using persimmon extracted for 23.5 hrs, with the additional of 160g of winy flour gave the higher scores for QDA profile, chewiness, delicacy and after swallowing preference than the other ratios. The results of the acceptance test also showed that the Gamdanja made using the persimmon extracted for 23.5 hrs with 160g of waxy rice flour was the best mix in every respect, such as for color and overall acceptability. In the textural analysis of Gamdanja, the hardness, adhesiveness, gumminess and chewiness were increased by the additiong of furtherway lour. The moisture content of Gamdnja with persimmon extracted for 23 hrs was higher an those extracted for 23.5 and 24 hrs. The L-, a- and values of Gamdanja were increased with decreasing waxy flour. The sensory and mechanical examinations showed the overall quality of Gamdanja had positive correlations with delicacy and color, but negative correlations with hardness, adhesiveness, gumminess, and chewiness. As a result of these tests, the most desirable recipe for the Gamdanja was persimmon extracted for 23.5 hrs with the additional of 160g of waxy rice flour, containing $1\%$ salt and a moisture content of $45.87\%$.
