The principal objective of this study was to evaluate the effects of the addition of sourdough to bread dough, specifically with regard to the physicochemical characteristics of bread dough, organoleptic evaluation, and bread storage. Marked increases in lactic acid bacterial counts $10^{9-10}CFU/g$ in dough samples with 30, 50, and 100% of added sourdough to the respective bread dough were observed after the first fermentation period of the dough, but decreases were observed in yeast cells. The highest overall acceptance scores were recorded for the 100% sourdough-added bread, and almost no differences in taste and texture were detected between the regular bread (control bread) and sourdough-added bread on the sensory evaluations, with slightly lower evaluation scores (for sour taste) in the sourdough-added bread. The sourdoughadded bread also showed retarded mold growth in the bread on our storage tests. Six days had elapsed prior to the appearance of mold growth in the sourdough-added bread, whereas three days elapsed in the regular bread. The more sourdough was added to the dough, the less was the total count in bread. Increases of 13.1, 20.9, and 36.2% in the retardation of starch retrogradation of the bread were observed as the result of additional increases in sourdough quantity to bread at 30, 50, and 100%, respectively.

The schools in the survey consisted of 61 schools where foodservice was managed by themselves and 49 schools where it was done cooperatively. According to the style managed, the urban style was 42 schools, the rural style was 46, and the island style was 22. With regard to the amount for each student that parents have to pay. it was 745 won at schools managed by themselves and 616 won at schools managed cooperatively. The budgeted amount was 75 won at schools managed by themselves and 97 won at schools managed cooperatively. The result showed that parents at schools managed for themselves paid much more for the cost of food and management. The mean area of kitchens was 31 pyong (102 sq. meters) in environment of cooking utilities, and management was done wherever they were needed. The budgeted amount was supplied from the Educational Office and parents. In the situation of utilities and instruments for cooking, the places to wash hands and flush toilets, which were regarded as sanitary facilities were insufficient. The rates of containing measuring instruments and thermometers for cooking were also insufficient. The list to be considered in the management of menu was concentrated on raising acceptance of students served, based on the order of the tastes of students served, the quantity of the cost, nutrition needed, and then facilities. The replies that leftover food was thrown away after meals were numerous and the rate of leftover food was reflected on the menu. In purchase and management, the rate of food needed to be purchased was calculated through experience. A private contract was chosen to purchase food. The frequency of purchasing food was usually once a day, which would nutritists examined food, concentrating on the order of quality, number, and price. In the management of operation, a schedule for making food was seldom formed, referring to it only at the time needed. All the food was made in a day but some special foods were made the day before they would be required. It shows the situation was thought to be the most important. Guidance for sanitation was carried out once a month and the content of the guidance was about the sanitary treatment of food. With regard to degree of satisfaction with the management of meal service, all the dietitian at schools managed for themselves and cooperatively were somewhat satisfied with all the questions about the budgeted amount of food, and management, the management of purchase, operation, and sanitation. However, they were not satisfied with the environment of facilities.

This study aims to provide the service quality which consumers want and basic data for improving their satisfaction by examining the difference among the quantity of cultural capital obtained from restaurant customers, the perception of service quality, and satisfaction. The results of the study are as follows. First, customer satisfaction is not much affected by how much cultural capital one has but by how much influence the cultural capital of parents or family has, or the institutionalized cultural capital. Second, the group that has more cultural capital objectives perceives tangibility, reliability and empathy lower than the one with less cultural capital in general while the group that has more cultural capital embodiments perceives tangibility and assurance higher than the one with less cultural capital; moreover, the group that has more cultural capital institutions perceives the service quality factor lower than the one with less cultural capital. Third, the higher the perception of the whole service quality is, the greater the satisfaction is. In this respect, it is required to offer the service to win customers' sympathy and trust as well as better external atmosphere. In addition, there should be continuous service training to foster employees' expertise and improve service quality, in order for restaurant customers to visit frequently with satisfaction and revisit intention.

This study was carried out to review and compare crop cultivations upon chemical properties of paddy soil and qualitative characteristics of rice in Sejong-city from a point of view of farming extension to rice farmers and to utilize the result of the study as a basic guideline for precise agricultural practice. The pH in soils of Sejong was about 6.1-6.6 and had no difference with an average pH of paddy soils in Chung-Nam with pH 6.1. However, the average of organic matter, calcium (Ca) and available silicate in Sejong was lower than the average of them in Chung-Nam. The yields of rice were higher in 2010 than in 2011 and 2012, and the protein contents of rice were the highest in 2011 while the lowest water contents of rice in 2011. The protein contents upon regions were the highest in 2011 with 6.1%, and the amylose contents were the highest in Yeondong-myun, Jeoneu-myun, and Yeonseo-myun in 2010 while Kumnam-myun and Jeondong-myun were the highest in 2012. With the increase of precipitation, the protein content level in rice was increased while the amylose content level tended to decrease. Correlations between the chemical properties of paddy soil and the quality of rice and between level of organic matter in soil and amylose contents were negative (r = -0.507), and the correlation between the moisture contents and amylose contents (r = 0.419) and between the water contents and whiteness (r = 0.485) were positive. Because the quantity and quality of rice yield is determined by the soil characteristics, the consultation to farmers for the proactive soil analysis and for the maintenance of stable level of pH, organic matter and available silicate based on historical results of analysis is highly recommended. Also, the analysis on the effect of the weather and the soil characteristics affecting the quality and quantity of rice would be another good way.

This study was carried out to examine the sensory characteristics of Demi-glace sauce prepared by fresh basil with different amount of salt added. The evaluation of the sensory quality of Demi-glace sauce prepared by fresh basil was conducted by unexperienced and trained panel with regard to color, odor, taste, appearance, texture, viscosity, and overall acceptability while varying the quantity of salt added, the time of preparation, and the conditions of sauce offered in which each panel was supposed to evaluate both sauce itself and sauce with meat. It was found that Demi-glace sauce prepared by fresh basil with 0.3% salt added was gained the highest score from both panels in most properties and the second was the one with 0.1% salt added. In the sensory properties correlation analysis according to the time of preparation and the conditions of sauce offered, there was no significant correlation in most sensory properties for the unexperienced panel, except some significantly positive correlation between taste and overall acceptability of the sauce. Whereas there was a positive correlation in the majority of sensory properties for the trained panel regardless of the time of preparation and the conditions of sauce offered. The sauce with 0.3% salt added ranked as the best recipe by both panels among four different ratios of salt adding regardless of the time of preparation and the conditions of sauce offered. Triangle test showed that the sauce B with 0.1% salt added before the preparation was more highly appreciated in terms of taste than the sauce A with 0.1% salt added in the final step of preparation. In conclusion, it could be suggested that Demi-glace sauce prepared by fresh basil with 0.3% salt added is the best recipe for commercial products. Also, there seems to be the need of further sensory evaluation studies on the Demi-glace sauce according to the time of addition during the process of preparation.

This study is aimed to identify the relationship between Korean restaurant selection attributes and behavioral intention regarding foodservice consumption tendency. In order to achieve the purpose of research, frequency analysis, factor and reliability analysis, correlation analysis, cluster analysis, chi-square test, variance analysis, and multiple regression analysis were conducted using SPSS 18.0. As a result of variance analysis, accessibility did not appear to have a significant difference in all clusters, food quality appeared to have a significant result (F=5.587, $p{\leq}.001$), employees' service appeared to have a significant difference (F=5.186, p<.01), and price discounts also showed a significant difference (F=4.921, p<.01). Therefore, the first hypothesis that the foodservice consumption tendency has a difference in the Korean restaurants selection attributes was partially selected. In order to verify the hypothesis that the Korean restaurants selection attributes affect behavioral intention, the sub-factors of the Korean restaurant selection attributes (accessibility of restaurants, food quality, employees' service, price discounts) were set as independent variables, and the behavioral intention of foodservice consumers was set as a dependent variable. As a result, the accessibility of restaurants (${\beta}=.092$) and price discounts (${\beta}=.299$) have a non-significant effect on behavioral intention. However, a significant result was shown in food quality (${\beta}=.379$, p<.001) and employees' service (${\beta}=.251$, p<.001). Thus, the hypothesis that the Korean restaurant selection attributes have a positive effect on behavioral intention was partially selected. Based on the results, foodservice managers need to build up strategic management to improve food quality with better ingredients, sanitation, adequate quantity, and consistent taste of food. In addition, they should provide better service with well-trained employees.

This study was carried out to investigate the relationship between the food and nutrient intake status and eating-out practices of college students. A dietary survey of 361 subjects living in urban areas was conducted by using a 3-day diet record method. The average ages of the male and female subjects were 22.0 and 20.6 years old, respectively. Monthly personal expenses of the male and female students were 316,517 won and 296,888 won, respectively. 43.1% of the male and 50.8% of the female students used between one-quarter and one-half of their monthly personal expenses for eating out. Sixty-five percent of the total subjects ate out more than five times a week The average daily total food intake was 1630.7g in the males and 1453.9g in the females. The average percentage of total food intake from eating out (by weight) was 60.6% in the males and 56.2% in the females; foods eaten out were mainly potatoes, meats, processed foods, and beverages. It was found that 40-65% of daily total nutrient intake came from food eaten out. When they ate out, the male students ate slightly higher amounts of protein, fat and vitamin B1, while the female students ate relatively higher amounts of animal protein, fat, vitamin A and cholesterol. The more the subjects ate out, the more the quantity of total food intake increased. This increase resulted from high intakes of beverages and processed foods in the males, while the increase was from total plant foods, mushrooms, beverages, and milk and dairy products, in the females. The dietary variety score (DVS) was significantly increased in the female subjects when they ate out more than once a day; otherwise, the DVS was not significantly different between any of the male and female groups. The intakes of energy, and of many nutrients such as protein, fat, carbohydrates, calcium, phosphorus, iron, potassium and cholesterol, were increased when the female subjects ate out more than twice a day. The mean adequacy ratio (MAR) was at its highest level of 0.65 in the males when they ate out less than once a day, and at its highest level of 0.67 in the females when they ate out more than twice a day.
