Effect of gamma irradiation on quality properties of half·cooked noodle was studied. The noodle were treated with lactic acid(0.1%, w/w), heat(10 min in boiling water) or their combination after cooking for 3 min, and irradiated at 0, 5 and 10 kGy. The noodle were stored at 25。C for 5 weeks and microbial population, Aw, pH, and texture profiles were examined. Fungi were completely eliminated by gamma-irradiation with 5 or 10 kGy does. Number of aerobic bacteria were also decreased by 2 and 4 log cycles with dose of 5 and 10 kGy, respectively. The D10 values of aerobic bacteria were 2.34∼2.95 kGy. Growth of the aerobic bacteria that survived even at 10 kGy of irradiation were significantly inhibited during storage. Acidification of half-cooked noodle was suppressed by gamma irradiation but A${_w}$ were not affected. Stickiness was decreased at the beginning of storage by gamma irradiation but was restored after 3 weeks. The results indicated that the gamma irradiation would be useful to improve quality and storage stability of half-cooked noodle.

Effects of Takju(Korean turbid rice wine) lees on noodle investigated by substituting Takju lees water extract powder for each 2% and 4% wheat flour in sample II and III, respectively. The lightness(L) of uncooked noodles was decreased, whereas that of cooked noodles was increased with increasing amount of extract added. Redness(a) and difference of total color(${\Delta}$E) were significantly increased according to the amount of extract added in uncooked and cooked noodles. Yellowness(b) of the noodles containing 2% Takju lees water extract powder was exhibited lowest values in uncooked and cooked noodles. In cooking property of noodles, turbidity of soup decreased in proportion to amount of extract added, 2% and 4% in sample II and III, respectively whereas the weight and volume of noodles were not significant than those of control. Tension of cooked noodle was highest in sample II and lowest in sample III. Texture profile analysis of cooked noodle showed an significant increase of hardness in addition of Takju lees water extract powder but not significant different in springiness, chewiness, adhesiveness. Cohesiveness was significantly lowest in sample II. The sensory evaluation showed that significant difference between noodles with 2% addition groups and control was not recognized but was recognized 4%. Therefore, based on cooking properties and sensory evaluation, Takiu lees water extract powder up to 4% could be substituted for wheat flour.

This study was carried out to investigate the quality characteristics and storage of wet noodle with added Cheonnyuncho powder. Wet noodles were prepared at concentration of 1, 3, and 5%(w/w) of the fruit based on flour weight. Moisture content of the noodles with or without Cheonnyuncho powder was 34~36%. Ca, K, Mg, Fe, Mn and Zn contents of Cheonnyuncho noodle were increased at increasing concentrations of Cheonnyuncho powder. Cooked weight, volume, and water absorption decreased with increased fruit powder, whereas turbidity increased. For hunter's color values of noodles, L(lightness) and b(yellowness) values decreased with increasing concentration of Cheonnyuncho powder, whereas a(redness) value increased. For mechanical characteristics of the noodles, adhesiveness, cohesiveness, chewiness, elasticity, and brittleness of cooked noodle with Cheonnyuncho powder were lower than those of control. The pH of Cheonnyuncho noodle was lower than that of control during storage. Bacterial counts of wet noodle with 1% and 3% fruit powders were lower than those of the control and 5% fruit powder on the 8th day of storage at $5^{\circ}C$. From the sensory evaluation, texture, taste, and overall preference were not significantly different between the control and fruit group, but the color of 5% Cheonnyuncho noodle was significantly higher than that of control (p<0.05). In conclusion, the results of this study suggest that the addition of 1% and 3% Cheonnyuncho powder in combination with flour tended to improve antimicrobial effects during storage when compared to control.

The objective of this study was to determine the characteristics of noodle dough made with biji powder (2, 4, 6 and 8%). Increase in the amount of biji powder significantly increases the water-binding capacity and decreases lightness (L) (p<0.05). The changes of redness (a), yellowness (b) and size of pore were insignificant. In the case of raw noodle, hardness, springiness, gumminess and chewiness of raw noodle significantly increased with increasing concentrations of the biji powder (p<0.05). Hardness of cooked noodle increased according with increase in concentration of biji (p<0.05). Springiness was increased up to 4% of biji concentration and slightly decreased at higher concentrations (p<0.05). Adhesiveness and cohesiveness of cooked noodle decreased according with increase in concentration of biji (p<0.05). The was no significant changes in the gumminess and chewiness. Taken together, addition of 4.0% biji powder to noodle dough may improve the preference of noodles.

The quality of Ramyon prepared from hard red winter-western white (HRW-WW) and dark northern spring-western white (DNS-WW) flour blends having protein contents of 9.12-9.78% was examined. The noodles were manufactured by commercial process with the same water absorption. The weight and volume of cooked noodle were decreased as the protein content increased at the same cooking time. No significant differences in cooking properties were observed between noodles prepared from HRW-WW and DNS-WW blends. The weight and volume of noodle prepared from HRW-WW blend cooked for 4 min showed significant negative correlation with farinograph and extensograph data and protein contents of flours, but positive correlation with amylograph data. Such correlations were not found from noodles prepared from DNS-WW blend. Based on the sensory evaluation of cooked noodle it was concluded that the optimum protein content for noodle manufacture was in the range of 9.28-9.62%. The replacement of HRW with DNS flour had no effect on the sensory quality of noodle.

Noodle texture parameters of Korean style wet and dry noodles and relationships between noodle quality and flour characteristics were evaluated for two years, 1997 and 1998, and at two locations, Suwon and Deokso, using Korean winter wheat cultivars and lines. No significant difference for chewiness was found between cultivars over locations. Noodles made from flours from 1997 showed significantly higher chewiness than those from 1998. Chewiness of cooked noodles showed positively significant correlations with protein content and SDS sedimentation volume and negatively significant correlations with starch peak viscosity and flour swelling volume. Korean winter wheat cultivars, except for Gobunmil, Keumkangmil Tapdongmil, Suwon 265 and Suwon 280, showed chewiness of cooked noodles similar to commercial flours used for noodle making in Korea and Japan.

This study investigated the quality characteristics and antioxidant activities of wet noodles as well as their cooking properties following the addition of peanut sprout extract (PSE) and powder (PSP), which are known to contain a significant level of resveratrol. Wet noodles were prepared with 0, 2.5, 5, 7.5 and 10% PSE and PSP. Quality characteristics such as increasing volume of noodle, water ratio, turbidity of cooking water and color, texture, and sensory evaluation were then assessed. Additionally, the total resveratrol content in the cooked noodles was analyzed by HPLC and DPPH free radical scavenging capacity. As the amount of PSE and PSP increased, the L value of wet and cooked noodles significantly decreased, whereas the a and b values increased (p<0.001). The L value of cooked noodles was significantly lower compared to wet noodles (p<0.001) whereas the a and b values were higher. For the cutting intensity properties of the cooked noodles, hardness was reduced with increasing amounts of PSE (p<0.001), and was significantly increased in proportion to the amount of PSP (p<0.05). Meanwhile, springiness was not significantly different in all groups. Total resveratrol content and free radical scavenging activity significantly increased in proportion to the amounts of PSE and PSP (p<0.001), especially in noodles containing 5%, 7.5% and 10% PSE and PSP. Finally, sensory evaluation of PSE noodle revealed that color, flavour, taste were significantly decreased (p<0.05). But there was no difference in overall acceptance among cooked noodles with 2.5% to 5% PSE comparison to the control. Sensory characteristics in the PSP noodle showed similar results. In conclusion, these findings suggest that peanut sprout extract and powder could be potentially used as functional food ingredients. In addition, up to 5% PSE and PSP can be substituted for wheat flour.

Cysteine, a thiol group-containing reducing agent which is known to relax the strain and increase the viscosity of dough, was added to Korean and imported wheat flour noodles to investigate the effect on the properties of raw, dried, and cooked noodles and to determine the optimum cooking time and amount to improve the color of noodles. Addition of cysteine up to 1% of flour (8.25 mmole/100 g flour) was not effective in increasing the brightness of raw and dried noodles and in changing the water activity of dried noodle. However, cysteine improved the brightness of cooked noodle made of both Korean and imported wheat flours. Also, there were notable differences in cooking and sensory properties of cysteine-added cooked noodles such as less firm and stickier texture due to the extraction of organic compounds into broth. When the noodles were cooked for their optimum cooking time, no difference was noticed in the texture and overall preference regardless of the addition of cysteine. Overall, the addition of 1 % cysteine increased the brightness of cooked noodles and reduced the cooking time.

The noodle making characteristics were investigated for both eleven varities of Korean wheat, such as Chokwangmil, Geurumil, Eunpamil, Tnpdongmil, Woorimil, Oigeurmil, Alchanmil, Cobunmil, Geumgangmil, Seodunmil and Suwon 265, and two varieties of imported wheat, DNS(Dark Northern Spring Wheat) and ASW(Australian Standard White). After cooking of dry-noodle, the elasticities were 0.59-0.79 in the native wheat and 0.55-0.57 in the imported wheat. Among the varieties showing the highest value in the various texture properties of cooked dry-noodle, Alchanmil was highest in gumminess, Geungangmil in cohesiveness, Olgeurumil in adhesiveness, Geurumil in fimmess, Chokwang in chewiness, Tapdongmil in tensile strength Gobunmil in breaking strength. After cooking the wet-noodle, Tapdongmil in elasticity, Geurumil in adhesiveness, Geumgangmil in gumminess, cohesiveness, firmness and chewiness, and Suwon 265 in tensile strength showed the highest values in the respective textural properties. From the sensory evaluation of the cooked dry-noodle, the significant differences (p<0.05) among wheat varieties were observed in color, texture and overall quality. As a result, ASW was excellent in our all qualities of cooked dry-noodle followed by Tapdongmil, Alchanmil and Geumgangmil. The cooked wet-noodle also showed the high sensory scores (p<0.01) were showing the best in Tapdongmil, followed by Eunpamil, Geumgangmil and Woorimil.
