The feasibility of incorporating jujube powder as a value-added food ingredient in bakery food products, using a model system of muffins, was investigated. Jujube powder was incorporated into muffins at 0, 5, 10, 15, and 20% weight amounts based on the total weight of wheat flour. Qualities, such as pH, volume index, height, and moisture content, of muffins decreased significantly with increasing levels of jujube powder added (p<0.05). In terms of color, lightness decreased, whereas redness increased significantly for both crust and crumb (p<0.05) with increasing levels of jujube powder. Baking loss also decreased gradually, while hardness and 2,2-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activity were significantly influenced with higher amounts of jujube powder in the formulation (p<0.05). Finally, the consumer acceptance test indicated that the highest levels of jujube incorporation (20%, w/w) had a considerable adverse effect on consumer preferences in all attributes. In contrast, muffins with moderate levels of jujube powder (10%, w/w) are recommended (with respect to overall preference score) for taking advantage of the functional properties of jujube powder without sacrificing consumer acceptability.

This study investigates waxy barley powder substituted for wheat flour in bread recipes with the amounts of 0%(control), 5%, 10%, 15% and 20%. Waxy barley powder consisted of 8.33% of moisture content, 10.47% of crude protein, 1.63% of crude fat, and 2.97% of crude ash. Sedimentation value and pelshenke value have decreased as the waxy barley powder content increased. The farinograph measurement result of the bread made with waxy barley powder showed that consistency, water absorption, development time, stability and time breakdown have increased as the waxy barley powder content increased. The amylograph measurement result of the bread made with waxy barley powder showed that T have increased as the waxy barley powder content increased. Their P, H and P-H have decreased as the ingredient contents increased. Baking loss and specific loaf volume have decreased as the waxy barley powder content increased. The chromaticity measurement result of the bread made with waxy barley powder showed no significant difference as the waxy barley powder content increased. The texture measurement result showed that the hardness and gumminess of bread have increased as the waxy barley powder content increased. Their cohesiveness, springiness and chewiness have decreased as the ingredient contents increased. Overall preference scores showed a high acceptability for the bread made with 10% waxy barley powder.

The breadmaking characteristics of composite flour containing 30% of buckwheat and 70% of wheat with the addition of vital wheat gluten and water-soluble gums, were studied to establish the optimum formula for the development of buckwheat bread. The addition of vital wheat gluten or/and gums led to successful formation of buckwheat bread, giving loaf volume increase and improvement of sensory quality, especially texture determined by QDA (Quantitative Descriptive Analysis). Among those additives, xanthan gum showed the best volume expansion. Synergistic effects on bread quality were observed when the vital wheat gluten and xanthan gum or guar gum were used together. As buckwheat flour was substituted for wheat flour, gelatinization started early and the maximum viscosity increased measured by an amylography. The addition of gluten and gums caused the initial gelatinization to occur at a higher temperature and maximum viscosity to decrease.

This study investigated the quality characteristics, antioxidant activities, and retarding retrogradation of sponge cakes made with 0%, 1%, 3%, 5% and 7% pumpkin (Cucurbita moschata Duch.) leaf powder. Specific capacity significantly increased with the addition (0.33~0.38), but baking loss and dough yield were not significantly different (p<0.05). In color, there was a decrease in the L-value, a-value and b-value, but ${\Delta}E$ increased in proportion to the amount of pumpkin leaf powder. Moisture content increased in the 0~3% additions, from 27.90~31.68%, but decreased in 5% and 7% (22.37% and 28.15%, respectively). pH tended to decrease significantly according to the amount of pumpkin leaf powder (p<0.05). Hardness increased with the addition of pumpkin leaf powder, and pumpkin leaf groups presented higher springiness and cohesiveness than the control. Chewiness was not significantly differ (p<0.05). In retarding retrogradation, Avrami exponent (n) showed that addition of 5% (0.1329) had more retarding retrogradation effect than the control (0.4319), whereas time constant (1/k) showed both 3% (100.00) and 5% (70.42) addition had more effect than control (18.45). Total phenols and flavonoids content increased proportionate to the addition levels. ABTS radical scavenging activity tended to increase according to the level of pumpkin leaf powder. In sensory properties, 5% addition showed maximum color, and 3% addition had the highest scores in flavor, moistness, sweetness, chewiness and overall acceptability. These results suggested that pumpkin leaf was a good addition to improve the quality characteristics, health and sensory preferences. The most appropriate proportion to have the effect of retarding retrogradation in sponge cake is 3%.

We investigated food preservation hurdles used for Korean traditional side dishes. As a first step of the research preparation and cooking recipes of the side dishes were surveyed, which are commonly used in Korean households. As next step, compositional and microbial quality attributes were measured onto the samples collected from the market. Antimicrobial ingredient added in the preparation are reasoned to work as important hurdles based on the scientific principles. Heating processes such as blanching, boiling, braising, hard-boiling and frying help to keep the produce decontamination or water activity adjustment. Measured salt contents of most side dishes were in the range of 1-5% with those of salt-preserved vegetables being higher. pH values were 4.7-6.4 with those of salt-preserved vegetables being lower and those of hard boiled fishes being higher. Soluble solids of braised or hard-boiled dishes were usually above $40^{\circ}Brix$, while those of blanched and seasoned vegetables had lower values. Water activity values were 0.93-0.95 for seasoned vegetables and 0.77-0.88 for hard-boiled or semi dried beans and seafoods. Product with processing steps of braising or blanching showed lower bacterial load of 102-104 cfu/g, while seasoned or salt-preserved vegetables and seafoods had aerobic bacterial count above 106 cfu/g. Korean traditional side dishes were found to apply the appropriate combinations of heating preparation process, water activity and pH adjustment and salting, providing the required preservation properties.

The feasibility of incorporating cinnamon as a value-added food ingredient in bakery food products was investigated using sponge cakes as a model system. Cinnamon powder was incorporated into sponge cakes at 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4% weight amounts, based on the total weight of wheat flour. Cake qualities, such as pH, moisture content, specific volume, and baking loss, decreased significantly with increasing levels of cinnamon powder added (p<0.05). In terms of color, lightness and yellowness decreased, with increasing levels of cinnamon powder. Redness significantly increased for crumb, but decreased for crust (p<0.05) with increasing levels of cinnamon powder. Hardness also significantly increased (p<0.05), while total polyphenol content significantly increased, up to a 2% addition of cinnamon powder, and gradually increased afterwards. Finally, the consumer acceptance test has indicated that higher levels of cinnamon incorporation (2% or higher, w/w) have a considerable adverse effect on consumer preferences in all attributes. In contrast, sponges cakes with a minimal level of cinnamon powder (1%, w/w) are recommended for taking advantage of the functional properties of cinnamon powder without sacrificing consumer acceptability.

In order to improve the storage stability of steamed bread, fermented pine needle extract syrup potentially with several functional properties was added in manufacturing the products at levels of 8.3, 11 and 18% based on Brix degree of the dough. The manufactured bread was stored at ambient conditions and measured for quality attributes. Dough added with the fermented pine needle extract syrup maintained its pH and water activity at levels of $5.45{\sim}5.90\;and\;0.94{\sim}0.96$, which are normally suitable for yeast fermentation and for appropriate dough hardness. Addition of the extract syrup increased the bread volume by more than 20%. The bread with higher content of the pine needle extract syrup showed slower increase of bread hardness during storage, suggesting retardation of bread retrogradation. The addition of the pine needle extract syrup in bread dough also inhibited growth of the aerobic bacteria and molds on the bread surface (by $0.8{\sim}24$ in log (CFU/g) at 4 day storage). Use of higher than 11% concentration presented initially a strong fine needle flavor to the bread, which disappeared soon after 2 days. Generally addition of the pine needle extract syrup did not give negative effects on the bread quality including sensory quality. Therefore, the addition of the needle extract syrup could contribute to improving the storage stability and extending the shelf life of the bread.
