This study was conducted to develop optimal composition of flour brew in order to economically utilize flour brew inoculated by lactic acid bacteria as a starter(mother sponge) in bread-making. Two flour brews were prepared ; one with flour and water, the other with flour, water and NaCl. Various nutrients were added to both flour brews and Lactobacilli deMan Rogosa and Sharpe (MRS) broth to investigate the effect of them on growth and activities of Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus brevis and their mixed culture in flour brews to be tested with incubation at 37$^{\circ}C$. The growth of Streptococcus thermophilus, Lactobacillus brevis and their mixed culture was stimulated by addition of NaCl with 0.85% concentratin and more by mixed culture than by single lactic acid bacteria, resulting in 3 hrs reduction in cultivation and more by mixed culture than by single lactic acid bacteria, resulting in 3 hrs reduction in cultivation time. the addition of 3% glucose to flour brew with NaCl was observed to enhance acid productioni by mixed culture. Yeast extract greatly affected growth and activities of mixed culture of lactic acid bacteria in flour brew with NaCl and its optimum level of this additive in flour brew with NaCl was approximately 1.0%. The optimal composition of flour brew for mixed culture of lactic acid bacteria was suggested as follows; flour 100g, water 300g, NaCl 3.46g, glucose 12.48g, yeast extract 3.46g.

To investigate the effect of flour brew with bifidobacteria on bread characteristics, flour brew with bifidobacteria was added to baking after 16 hour incubation at 37oC. The more addition of flour brew, the higher gassing power, the better machinality of dough were obtained, resulting in the larger specific volume of bread. Flavor profile analyzed by Electronic Nose System showed that flavor components of 30% flour brew were decreased comparing with those of control and there was shown definite difference in sensory characteristics between them. Staling studies of bread containing flour brew indicated had a definite effect in retarding the staling rate of bread, with time constant calculated in 30% treatment being 3.09 days and in control being 2.08 days. The enthalphy of gelatinization was decreased from 2.51J/g to 0.61J/g with increment of flour brew, suggesting that starch crystallization is delayed. conclusion, Flour brew fermented by bifidobacteria can be used as a natural bread improver with so many benefits as better machinality, one more day storage period, slower staling rate, better bread volume and more appealing bread flavor.

In order to economically utilize flour brew with Bifidobacterium bifidum as a bread improver, the effect of flour brew on the rheological properties of dough, growth curve and acid production, and symbiosis with yeast were investigated. Growth of bifidobacteria was not increased more than initial seed volume but was consistent during 24 hours of incubation. pH was decreased and T.T.A was increased up to 12 hours of incubation. Symbiosis between bifidobacteria and yeast was little. Bifidobacteria produced more lactic acid than acetic acid in flour brew and the opposite in skim milk broth. This result was inferred from Lactobacillus sp. inherent in flour. On rheological properties of dough, farinograms of flour showed progressively decreasing baking absorption, mixing time and stability as the amount of flour brew increased. The validation of extensograms showed that R/E ratio linearly increased with increment of flour brew, and nearly doubled in all treatments comparing to that of control, which suggest the reduction of actual fermentation time. On visco/amylograms, malt index increased with addition of flour brew, accordingly showing the decrease in viscosity. Break down and set back value decreased with increment of flour brew, suggesting that staling rate of bread can be delayed.

The present study examined optimal level of mulberry leave powder, and the method of bread-making were proposed to utilize mulbery leave powder by investigating rhelogical properties of dough and sensory evaluation of bread. The difference of amino acids compositions in flour brew were also investigated by fermentation of S. cerevisiae or bifidobacteria. As the % of mulberry leave powder increases absorption rate of dough was steadily increased, but stability and R!E ratio if dough were dramatically decreased more than 1% leave respectively. R!E ratio value, which indicates gas retnetion property of dough, was not obtained at the level 5%. Gelatinization temperature and maximum viscosity temperature showed a tentency of decrease, resulting in easier cooking of dough. The delay of temperature cauesd by addition of mulberry leave powder was overcome by two step bread making, that is, modified straight dough method adding flour brew fermented 16hrs by bifidobacteria. The firmness of bread was progressively dreased as the amount of mulbery leave powder increased. The addition of 2% level of mulberry powder to bread showed no significant difference comparing with control in sensery evaluation. Amino acids compositions of Flour brew fermented by bifidobacteria was superior th that by S. cerevisae nutritionally.onally.

This study evaluated the effect of whey brew cultured by Lactobacillus helveticus ATCC 55163 and Propionibacterium acidipropionici 5020 on bread quality characteristics. Ten and 15% whey brew were added to flour-based bread, after which bread volume, pH, total titratable acidity (TTA), moisture content, water activity, texture, organic acid content, and sensory evaluation were analyzed. The bread volume and TTA of control were the largest among the samples, whereas pH was the lowest. Moisture content did not significantly differ depending on the amount of whey brew added, though water activity was highest in the bread with 10% whey brew. However, hardness was the lowest in bread with 10% whey brew. Propionic acid was not detected while succinic acid, lactic acid, and acetic acid were detected in small amounts in the control compared to the test samples. Succinic acid, acetic acid, and lactic acid content was high in bread with 15% whey brew, with propionic acid present at a very high amount. In terms of sensory evaluation, bread with 10% whey brew had the highest score. As a result, high quality characteristics were associated with the bread with 10% whey brew, whereas long preservation was a characteristic of the bread with 15% whey brew.

This study was carried out to evaluate the effect of whey brew cultured by the mixed Lactobacillus helveticus ATCC 55163 and Propionibacterium acidipropionici 5020 on the rheological properties of flour dough. 10 and 15% of whey brews were added to the dough based on flour. Farinograph, alveograph, Rapid Visco Analyzer, and fermenting power of dough were analyzed. In the farinograph analysis, as the amount of whey brews increased on dough samples, water absorption, dough development time, stability, and breakdown increased. In the alveograph analysis, as the amount of whey brews increased on dough samples, P and W value increased while L and G value decreased. In the Rapid Visco Analyzer analysis, as the amount of whey brews increased on dough samples, initial pasting temperature and peak viscosity increased while final viscosity and setback decreased. Decrease of setback showed the delay of starch retrogradation. As the amount of whey brews increased on dough samples, fermenting power of dough got reduced.

As people know how to brew a wine from fruits and cereals, they continued to develope various wines good to their taste. Korean wines are also ones made from cereals and they have long been eager to improve the delicate taste. They used to drink Takju, raw rice wine, made from nonglutinous rice and Nuruk, a kind of yeast starter. During Koryo Dynasty, Soju a liquor was imported from Won(the Chinese dynasty). Nowadays this traditional folk wine, which had been developed variously and drunk all over the country, is decreasing year after year. The purpose of this study was to review on the wines ; its kinds, raw materials, brewing method, manufacturing utensils, measuring units and devices and the terms for wine making based on 20 documents published in 1600, in the middle of Yi dynesty. The results of review were as follows. 1. There were 121 kinds of wines at that time in Korea. 2. Among the raw materials for wines, major materials were glutinous rice, nonglutinous rice, wheat flour, wheat, mung bean, and black soybean. And minor materials were pepper corn, Lycium chinenisis, cinnamon, pine needles, pine nuts, jujube, mugwort leaves, lotus leaves, pine corn, pine bud, chrysanthemum, pine flowers, honey, Acanthopanox seoultenses, bamboo-root, marrowbone of blak cow, sweet flag, Ciprus noblis, Saurea lappa, honey suckle, Tricho santhes, azalea, the leaves of the paper mulberry, and bark of chungum tree. 3. There were several kinds of wines such as a wine without using Nuruk, a wine made from glutinous rice, nonglutinous rice, or glutinous and nonglutinous rice with flour. 4. There were several brewing methods for wines such as a wine boiled with ring rice cake, a wine brewed with loaves of rice cake, a wine brewed with hard boiled rice, a wine brewed with rice gruel, and a wine brewed with powdered rice gruel. 5. There were 23 kinds of utensils including measuring devices for weight and volume.

Goami2, Goami3 and Goami4 were identified as fiber-rich rice cultivars which were developed by mutation breeding with Ilpum. The purpose of this study was to develop a method for producing Makgeolli with the fiber-rich rice cultivars, Goami2, Goami3, Goami4, and to investigate the characteristics of Makgeolli during the fermentation process. Makgeolli was produced herein by fermentation steamed rice (SR), raw rice flour (RF), and steamed rice flour (SF) from Goami2, Goami3, Goami4, Ilpum and Sealgaeng rice cultivars. The physicochemical characteristics including alcohol and sugar content, pH, total acidity, TDF (total dietary fiber), and color of the Makgeolli samples were analyzed. Makgeolli produced with Ilpum and Sealgaeng showed satisfactory fermention characteristics in alcohol and sugar content when SR, RF and SF were used. In the case of Goami2, Goami3, and Goami4, the use of SF resulted in 17.2~20.1% alcohol content, whereas only 10% alcohol was produced by SR. The sugar contents in the SF-makgeolli samples were also higher ($9{\sim}10^{\circ}Brix$) than in the SR-makgeolli ($5.35{\sim}5.44^{\circ}Brix$) for Goami2 and Goami4 cultivars. The dietary fiber contents of the Makgeolli samples produced using SF from the fiber-rich rice cultivars were higher (1.35~1.52 g/100 mL) than those produced with Ilpum and Sealgaeng (0.74~0.87 g/100 mL). From these results, it may be suggested that SF would be an appropriate material to brew Makgeolli using fiber-rich rice cultivars to obtain better physicochemical and functional qualities.

'The Joobang' is a cooking book written purely in Korean which came from a Mr. Lee. It is unknown when and by whom this book was written, but it is inferred from red pepper mentioned in this book and from Korean-writting type that the book was written around in the mid-nineteenth century. The contents of 'the Joobang' consist of thirty seven items in all : sixteen items of rice alcoholics, five side dishes, eleven Tucks(rice cakes) and Guaja(cookies) and five processed materials. Cereals for making rice alcoholics were regular rice and sticky rice. In the first brew, rice alcoholics is made all from regular rice, and in the second brew, fifty six percent of regular rice and forty four percent of sticky rice was made use of. For five items of alcoholics forming 31.3% of alcoholics, flour was added, in which case the proportion of leaven to cereals was lower. There were four types of processing cereals in brewing rice alcoholics Jee-ae-bop(steamed rice, 60.9%), thick gruel with cereals ground and completely cooked(8.7%), thick gruel with cereals ground and half cooked (26.1%) and GooMung Tuck(doughnut-shaped rice cake, 4.3%). The comparison of the materials for brewing rice alcoholics and of the types of processing cereals presented in the seven cooking books purely in Korean(Umsik Deemeebang, JoobangMoon, Umsikbo, Sool-mandununbop, Kyuhap chongseo. The Kims' Joobangmoon and The Lee's Umsikbup) showed us the following facts ; Yihwajoo (rice alcoholics brewed around the blooming time of pear trees) and Kwahajoo(rice alcoholics which passed the summed time) were most often introduced and commonest, and the materials for brewing and the types of processing little changed over times. The materials for side dishes were all animal food, and vegetable food was little used for side dishes. Red pepper was used for seasoning. It is a problem of Korean traditional cooking that there were no units of measuring for side dishes. The main materials for Tuck(rice cakes) and Guaja(cookies) were sticky rice, regular rice and honey. There was a variety of terms for the process, from which we can see that the procedures of making Tuck(rice cakes) and Guaja(cookies) were very complicate. Processed materials were chiefly made of sticky rice and the material of firewood(oak trees) and the strength of fire(fire burning vigorously and fire turning to ashes) were described.

In order to brew Takju, Korean flour wine, it requires three necessary steps for specific brewage. One is primary brewing process and another main brewing process to sacharify and perform alcoholic fermentation. After previous two brewing passing, the mash of main brewing process mixed with 1 volume of water is commercial Takju. Three samples were obtained from three breweries and incubated at $28{\pm}1^{\circ}C$for the alcoholic fermentation. All the samples were analyzed for observation of the changes of various biochemical constituents which were contained in the mashes of two brewing processes and in Takju. The starch contents of the suspensions in the primary and main mashes, and in Takju were 28.08, 25.92, 3.83%, and decreased considerably within 36-48 hrs and thereafter slowly. The amounts of water soluble carbohydrates and reducing sugars in three steps had a tendency of decreasing within 48 hours. The initial numbers of yeasts per 1ml in the suspensions were $1.74{\times}10^8$, $1.65{\times}10^8$, $0.66{\times}10^8$, appeared the highest at 72 hours (12.66%) in main process, and in the case of Takju kept increasing untill 60 hours. The dextrin contents in the mashe of primary process through the long period were 0.34 - 0.68%, in the main one were 0.12 - 0.32%, concerning with the amylase activities which were stronger in the mash of the primary process than in that of the main. The contents of methanol and cellulose in the mashes of two processes were 3.40-0.68%, in the main one were 0.12-0.32%, concerning with the amylase activities which were stronger in the mash of the primary process than in that of the main. The contents of methanol and cellulose in the mashes of two processes were 3.40-5.98mg/ml, 0.43-0.48% during the fermentation. The consumption of crude protein the mashes of Takju revealed with time, on the contrary, the production of free amino acids and oligo-peptides were performed, depending upon the affection of proteinase. The amount of tannic acid in Takju was 0.0073-0.0098mg/ml and organic acids of these three groups increased with time and hydrogen ion concentration was 3.28-4.43.
