Job's tears (Coixlachryma-jobi L.) and Chungkukjang (soybean-fermented food) were abundant source of phenolic compounds. In this study, almond cookies were prepared with different concentration(5%, 10%, 15%), of Job's tears Chungkukjang powder. The total phenolic contents were measured by the Folin-Ciocalteu method, total flavonoids contents were measured, and antioxidant activities were evaluated by DPPH assay. Antioxidative activity was highly correlated with the total phenolic and total flavonoids contents of Job's tears Chungkukjang almond cookies (r=0.867, r=0.647). In addition, the quality characteristics of the Job's tears Chungkukjang almond cookies were estimated based on the bulk density and pH of the dough, spread factor, color, texture profile analysis, proximate composition, and sensory evaluations. The spread factor, hardness, a value and b value, total polyphenolic contents, and DPPH free radical scavenging activity of cookies significantly increased with increasing content of Job's tears Chungkukjang powder (p<0.01), whereas the L values of the cookies decreased with the increasing Job's tears Chungkukjang powder content (p<0.05). The acceptability scores for the 5-15% Job's tears Chungkukjang almond cookie groups were ranked higher than those of the other groups in appearance, texture, and overall preference. The results of this study were shown that Job's tears Chungkukjang powder was a good ingredient for increasing the consumer acceptability and the functionality of cookies.

This study was carried out to investigate the quality of white pan bread as affected by various amounts of Sunsik powder, in which the breads were prepared with 0, 5, 10 and 15% Sunsik powder. The samples compared quality characteristics, including proximate composition, weight and height, fermentation time, baking loss rate, texture, sensory evaluation in order to determine the optimal amount of Sunsik powder in the formulation. The moisture content of control bread was higher, in the breads made with Sunsik powder. The baking loss rate decreased with increasing Sunsik powder concentration. The fermentation time of the bread increased with increasing Sunsik powder content. In sensory quality, the bread containing 5% Sunsik powder was preferred over the control bread, by color, taste, flavor and softness, while the 15% Sunsik powder bread had the lowest preference scores. Textural properties by TPA(texture profile analysis) showed that hardness, gumminess, chewiness increased with increased Sunsik powder concentration.

The objective of this study is to investigate the quality characteristics and antioxidant activities of yanggaeng prepared with different amounts of aronia juice. Aronia juice was incorporated into yanggaeng at different levels (containing 50, 100, and 150 g of aronia juice in AJ 50, AJ 100, and AJ 150, respectively) based on the total weight of water. Total acidity and sugar contents showed a significant increase, however, pH showed a decrease with increasing levels of aronia juice. Hardness also showed an increase with increasing levels of aronia juice. Regarding texture profile analysis, hardness, springiness, and chewiness of yanggaeng were increased, however, cohesiveness was similar compared to the control and aronia juice added treatments. In chromaticity determination, L and b values showed a decrease, however, a value increased with increasing levels of aronia juice. The total polyphenols, flavonoids, and anthocyanin contents were increased proportionally with increasing levels of aronia juice. Antioxidant activity measured by DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities were significantly higher than those of control and increased proportionally according to the concentration of aronia juice. The sensory evaluation indicated that AJ 100 showed the best preference in color, taste, texture, flavor, and overall acceptance. These results suggest that aronia juice may be a useful ingredient in yanggaeng for improvement of quality and antioxidant potential.

The effects of different hydrocolloids, including hydroxypropyl methylcellulose (HPMC), xanthan gum (XG), guar gum (GG), and glucomannan (GM), on bread quality characteristics were investigated. The composite flour used for bread production consisted of 80% bread flour and 20% rice flour with 1% different hydrocolloids based on baker's%. Loaf volume, specific loaf volume, baking and cooling loss rate, moisture content, crumb texture and color, and sensory evaluation were determined. Breads containing HPMC and GM showed the highest loaf volumes, but the difference was not significant. Bread containing GM showed the lowest baking and cooling loss rate (7.03 and 7.78%, respectively), and the highest moisture content. Breads containing HPMC and GM showed increased springiness and decreased hardness based on texture profile analysis. Cohesiveness, chewiness, and gumminess of breads containing GM and HPMC showed their lowest values, whereas breads containing XG revealed their highest values. Bread with HPMC showed lightest coloured crumbs. In the sensory evaluation, bread containing GM and HPMC presented their highest scores, whereas bread containing XG showed the lowest scores. Overall, HPMC and GM significantly and positively affected quality characteristics of bread.

The purpose of this study was to determine the storage characteristics of Sulgidduk, a kind of rice cake, added with Portulaca oleracea L. The effect of P. oleracea L. paste (0, 1, 3, or 5%) on the storage qualities of Sulgidduk was evaluated during storage period at $20{\pm}2^{\circ}C$ for 3 days. As the amount of P. oleracea L. paste increased, loss of water in P. oleracea L. Sulgidduk decreased. Textural properties by texture profile analysis showed that hardness of Sulgidduk added with 5% P. oleracea L. paste was the lowest among treated samples. However, the hardness of all Sulgidduks increased during storage, regardless of the addition amount of P. oleracea L. paste. In accordance with the texture results, differential scanning calorimetry exhibited that the enthalpy of Sulgidduk with 5% P. oleracea L. addition was the lowest, indicating the delaying effect of P. oleracea L. paste on retrogradation of rice cake. From these results, the addition of P. oleracea L. to Sulgidduk extended shelf-life by delaying retrogradation.

We developed hasuo jeungpyun with added polygonum multiflorum Thunb powder to increase the functional value and flavor of traditional jeungpyun. Hasuo jeungpyun containing 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8% polygonum multiflorum Thunb powder was prepared and the moisture contents, pH, color, texture and sensory analysis of the samples were measured. With increasing polygonum multiflorum Thunb powder content, the moisture content of hasuo jeungpyun decreased, and pH increased significantly. Hasuo jeungpyun prepared with 2-4% polygonum multiflorum Thunb powder displayed significantly higher swelling power. As the level of polygonum multiflorum Thunb powder increased, the L-value decreased, whereas the a- and, b-values increased. A textural profile analysis showed that the hardness increased but cohesiveness decreased with increasing polygonum multiflorum Thunb powder content. A sensory evaluation showed the highest value for air cell uniformity, flavor, and overall acceptability of 4% hasuo jeungpyun, which suggests hasuo jeungpyun with improved sensory characteristics. In the analysis of the correlation between sensory characteristics and mechanical properties of hasuo jeungpyun, hardness and brittleness were negatively correlated with after swallow, appearance, flavor, texture, taste, and overall acceptability.

This study was conducted to determine the effect of mugwort powder on meat composition and sensory characteristics in finishing gilts $(LY{\times}D)$. Twenty pigs (75kg) were randomly allotted to four treatments. Mugwort powder was added to final concentrations of 0(C), 0.5(T1), 1.0(T2), and 1.5%(T3) in the basal diet. Pigs were fed with the specified diet for 50 days. Carcass characteristics and cooking loss were not significantly affected by mugwort powder supplementation. The WHC and cooking loss of T2 and T3 were not significantly different than the control. However, the pH values for meat from gilts fed the T1 and T3 diets were significantly lower than the control (p<0.05). Shear force values of fresh meat were highest with the T3 diet (p<0.05), while the shear force values of cooked meat were significantly lower than the control with the T2 and T3 diets. Texture values of hardness, brittleness, gumminess, chewiness, and adhesiveness were significantly higher with the T3 diet (p<0.05), however values for cohesiveness and springiness were not significantly affected by mugwort powder supplementation. These results indicate that the feeding of mugwort powder improves the shear force of cooked meat from gilts fed the T3 diet, however the carcass, WHC and cooking loss characteristics in gilts are not affected by mugwort powder supplementation.

This study was investigated for the purpose of obtaining basic data for application to the canning process of salt-fermented anchovy Engraulis japonica fillet using tomato paste. The salt fermented anchovy fillet was prepared by fermenting anchovy fillet with salt 15% at $5^{\circ}C$ for 15 days and then cold air drying the salt-fermented anchovy fillet for 1 h at $16{\pm}1^{\circ}C$. The dried salt-fermented anchovy fillet 85 g was filled with 60 g of tomato paste sauce (tomato paste 42%, gum guar 1.0%, salt 2.0%, starch syrup 2.0%, cooking wine 1%, water 52%) and seamed by vacuum seamer in 301-3 can, then sterilized at Fo 9 and 11 min in a steam system retort at $121^{\circ}C$, respectively. The factors such as chemical composition, pH, total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N), amino-N, color value (L, a, b), texture profile, thiobarbituric acid (TBA) value, sensory evaluation and viable bacterial count of the canned salt-fermented anchovy fillet were measured. Texture value of the product sterilized at Fo 11 min was higher than at Fo 9 min condition. In both sterilized cans, the viable bacterial counts were not detected. There was no remarkable difference in physicochemical between sterilization conditions. As a result of sensory evaluation, most sensory evaluation inspector judged that it was difficult to distinguish the sensory difference of both products sterilized at Fo 9 min and at 11 min. The results showed that sterilization of Fo 9 min was more desirable than that of Fo 11 min to prepare canned salt-fermented anchovy fillet using tomato paste sauce, because this condition is more economical.

This study investigated the quality characteristics of Yanggeng sweetened with various amounts of trehalose (0, 40, 60, 80, 100 % of trehalose) and their changes during storage times. The moisture content, color value, $^{\circ}Brix$, pH, texture profile, QDA and acceptance for samples were tested. As a result of the mechanical tests, moisture content and pH were increased while hardness were decreased with increased trehalose content. Also, moistness, gloss and after taste were increased with increased trehalose in the sensory attribute difference test. Acceptance test showed Yanggeng with 60% trehalose and 40% sucrose obtained the highest scores on flavor, taste and overall acceptability. During storage in refrigerator, Yanggeng sweetened with higher % of trehalose showed significantly higher moisture content, and lower syneresis and hardness than the control sweetened with only sucrose. The results of the sensory test showed that 60% trehalose Yanggeng was the highest in flavor, after taste, and overall acceptability.
