Buckwheat flour was incorporated into steamed breads by adding the flour in the range of 0~9% based on the Baker's percentages and the physicochemical properties and consumer acceptance were investigated. After mixing, kneading, proofing, and molding, bread dough was steamed for 15 min using a steam tray and boiling water. The samples were cooled to room temperature for 15 min and packed in airtight bags for further analyses. pH of the steamed bread decreased slightly while titratable acidity increased significantly from 1.02 to 1.37 mL with the incorporation of more buckwheat flour in the formulation (p<0.05). Water activity was not affected by the buckwheat flour level (p>0.05). Moisture content slightly decreased from 43.72 to 42.30% while soluble solids content increased from 0.63 to 0.85 as the buckwheat flour concentration increased. As a result of the addition of buckwheat flour, the specific volume decreased from 3.31 to 2.57 mL/g; on the other hand, the spread ratio ranged from 2.17 to 2.21 without significant differences among them (p>0.05). At the higher level of buckwheat content, lower scores of all color parameters ($L^*$, $a^*$, and $b^*$-values) were observed. Firmness increased significantly with an increase in buckwheat flour content (p<0.05). Consumer acceptance tests indicated that incorporation of up to 3% buckwheat flour in the formulation of steamed breads did not significantly influence the consumers' acceptability in all attributes tested, except for color and elasticity.

The purpose of this study was to determine the optimal mixing conditions, storage, and irradiation characteristics by two different amounts of cabbage powder and water in bread prepared with cabbage powder. A significant increase or decrease in dough pH (p<0.01), sweetness (p<0.05), water content (p<0.001), L-value (p<0.01), a-value (p<0.001), b-value (p<0.001), hardness (p<0.05), springiness, and chewiness (p<0.05) was observed. Sensory measurements showed a significant improvement in appearance, flavor, color, taste (p<0.05), texture, moisture (p<0.01), and overall quality (p<0.05). As a result, the optimum formulation obtained by numerical and graphical methods was 37.04 g cabbage powder and 385.3 g water. The optimized and control breads were irradiated and their DPPH radical scavenging activities and total plate counts were evaluated over 6 days. The result showed the antioxidant and antibiotic action of the bread with cabbage powder.

Daebong persimmon puree (DPP) prepared from removing the astringency of persimmon was used as a substitute for water when making the dough of white pan bread using domestic wheat flour, and the resulting, quality characteristics were investigated. The moisture content of DPP was 96.69%, and the dough was made by various levels of substitution of DPP for water (0, 10, 30, 50 and 100%). During fermentation, the expansion power of the dough decreased with increasing DPP levels (p<0.05). The volume, specific volume, baking loss, and the L and ${\Delta}E$ values of the crust and crumb of the breads also decreased with increasing DPP levels. The hardness and chewiness of the bread containing 100% DPP (without water) showed the highest values, but the springiness, cohesiveness and resilience showed the opposite trends. In the difference tests, all attributes except air cell uniformity were significantly different (p<0.05). Bread made with 100% substitution of DPP for water achieved the highest scores for flavor, taste and overall acceptability.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: The aim of this study was to evaluate the sensory properties of antioxidant-rich bread made by adding pomegranate peels and their effects on anthropometric measurements and metabolic and oxidative parameters of individuals with type 2 diabetes after consumption. SUBJECTS/METHODS: This randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled study was conducted with 22 individuals aged between 19 and 64 years who had been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes for at least 5 years, used only metformin, did not lose more than 10% of their body weight in the last 6 months, and had a body mass index of ≥ 25.0 kg/m². While the study group (n = 11) consumed bread containing 500 mg pomegranate peel daily for 8 wk, the control group (n = 11) consumed standard bread. Anthropometric measurements and metabolic and oxidative parameters of individuals were evaluated at the beginning and end of the study. RESULTS: Decreases were detected in the waist circumference, waist/hip and waist/height ratios, body fat percentages, blood pressure, and serum insulin, triglyceride, and total cholesterol levels in the individuals in the treatment group, compared with those in the control group (P < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS: Pomegranate peel consumption by individuals with type 2 diabetes may have positive effects on anthropometric measurements and glycemic and lipid parameters.

In this study, domestic wheat white breads were prepared with the substitution of 1.5, 3.0, 4.5, and 6.0% Nelumbo nucifera G. tea powder(NNTP). The samples and a control were then compared with regard to quality characteristics, including pH, total titratable acidity, fermentation power of dough expansion, specific volume, baking loss, moisture content, color, textural characteristics, external and internal surface appearances, and sensory qualities in order to determine the optimal ratio of NNTP in the formulation. As the NNTP contents increased, the pH of dough and bread, baking loss, and lightness decreased, whereas the total titratable acidity of dough and bread increased. The fermentation power of dough expansion increased with increasing incubation time. The NNTP samples evidenced significantly higher specific volume, greenness, yellowness, resilience, and crumb consistency than were observed in the control group. However, hardness and fracturability evidenced the opposite effect. The water content and uniformity of the crumb pores were highest at a substitution level of 1.5%, and were lowest at a level of 4.5%. Crumb color, flavor, and delicious taste decreased with increasing NNTP contents, whereas lotus leaf flavor, astringency, bitterness, and off-flavor increased. Density of the crumb pore and crumb springiness were not significantly different among the samples. Softness, chewiness, and overall acceptability were maximal with the 1.5% substitution, and were minimal in the 6.0% group. In conclusion, our results demonstrate that $1.5{\sim}3.0%$ NNTP may prove quite useful as a substitute for domestic wheat flour in the production of white bread, and may evidence favorable nutritional and functional properties.

Utilities of kiwi fruit powder prepared from post-mature kiwi fruit in bakery products such as bread and cookie were investigated. The characteristics of bread and cookie with different amounts of kiwi fruit powder were examined through physical measurement (color specific volume, crumb firmness, spread ratio, and extensibility) and seneory evaluation. In baking performance of frozen dough with kiwi fruit powder, $L^{*}$, $a^{*}$, and $b^{*}$ values of crust and specific volume gradually decreased as the concentration of kiwi fruit powder increased. Crumb firmness had significant difference compared to bread without kiwi fruit powder, and sensory characteristics of breads with kiwi fruit powder were more poor than bread without kiwi fruit powder. In a cookie with kiwi fruit powder although specific volume was not significantly different, the spread ratio of cookie and cookie toughness significantly decreased; furthermore, cookie extensibility significantly increased as an amount of kiwi fruit powder increased. Hardness and moistureness of cookies in sensory evaluation had a similar tendency as toughness and extensibility of cookies. Therefore, post-mature kiwi fruit could be utilized to improve the cookie qualities.ies.s.

To develop sweet persimmon bread, the proper ratio of the sweet persimmon powder substituted for strong flour was decided. When 5%,10%,15% and 20% of sweet persimmon powder was substituted as much amount of strong How, the ratio of moisture absorption and loaf volume decreased while its weight increased. The contents of vitamin A,9-carotene and vitamin C increased as the substitute ratio of sweet persimmon powder increased. In color values, as sweet persimmon powder was added more, L and b values decreased and a value increased in the crust while in the crumb bread L value decreased and a, b values increased. In the sensory evaluation, the bread added with 10% persimmon powder was preferred to control in flavor, texture and overall acceptability but not in appearance.

The effect of oxidants, gluten and gums on breadmaking quality of wheat-purple sweet potato(Ipomoea batatas) composite flour were studied. Alveograph tests of doughs showed that all additives increased the P, L and W values. Of these additives, L-Ascorbic acid, gluten, carboxy methyl cellulose have a significant effect on alveogram indexes. SEM showed that the dough added with additives changed some what in appearance when compared with the control. When oxidants was added, the doughs discontinuous gluten film were observed. No significant differences ,were evident in bread crumb color among the additives. And textural characteristics of bread crumb were influened by adding additives. Breads containing additives showed an increase in max weight, strength and hardness and a decrease in springness and cohesiveness. Average enthalpy values for all bread crumb after 7days increased with storage time. However, addition of additives decrease the rate of staling slightly more than that of the control. Addition of L-Ascorbic acid, L-Cystine, carboxy methyl cellulose and hydroxy propyl methyl cellulose increased the loaf volume significantly, and with except potassium bromate bread scores were acceptable.

This study examined effects on shelf-life extension and prevention of starch retrogradation in rye-wheat mixed bread (RWMB) samples prepared with substitutions of 20, 40, 60, and 80% rye sourdough (RSD) as well as a control made with the addition of naturally fermented raisin extract. These effects were investigated using mold growth, water activity, and textural characteristics during a storage period of 8 days at $20^{\circ}C$. The activities of the rye sourdough were examined in terms of pH, total titratable acidity, general bacteria, lactic acid bacteria, and yeast counts. As the incubation time of the sour dough increased, pH decreased, while total titratable acidity increased. General bacteria, lactic acid bacteria, and yeast counts increased with increasing incubation time. Mold grew on the external surface of the control group after 6 days and on the surface of the RSD bread samples after 8 days, respectively. With regard to water activity, the control group had increasing activity as the storage period increased. In addition, the 20, 40, 60, and 80% RSD samples had increasing water activities until the 4th day however, these strongly decreased by the 6th day. In terms of textural characteristics, as the storage period increased, hardness increased, while springiness, cohesiveness, and resilience decreased. There were no significant differences in gumminess among the samples. The control, 20, 40, and 60% RSD samples had decreases in chewiness with increasing storage time, however, the 40% RSD sample did not differ significantly during the storage period. Finally, water activity was negatively correlated with hardness (p<0.05). In conclusion, the results indicate that substituting rye sourdough in rye-wheat mixed bread has a prolongation effect on shelf-life, but no effect on the prevention of starch retrogradation.

The purpose of this study was to develop functional breads added with Ganoderma lucidum (GL) extract which was well known for preventing various adult diseases and cancer. It was observed that bitter taste was increased with up to 8％ GL extract while dough volume was increased at the first dough fermentation period and baking loss reduction was decreased. In terms of sensory evaluation, there were not so much significant differences with 2％ added GL extract. In 4, 6, 8％ added GL extract bread, it was found that 4％ was ordinary and 6％ and 8％ were bad compared to the control bread. The bread with 2％ added GL extract was excellent, 4％ was ordinary and 6, 8％ was badly evaluated in the internal texture. It's possible to make the functional breads baking with 2％ GL extract which is similar to the control breads based on the above results.
