Qualify changes of the precooked frozen sardine (Sardinops melanosticta) during frozen storage were investigated by measuring extractable protein, expressible drip, available lysine and lipid oxidation as peroxide value. Fresh sardine was dressed, washed in chilled water, cooked in boiling water to have $55^{\circ}C\;and\;70^{\circ}$ at the center of the body, frozen at $-40^{\circ}C$, and finally stored at $-20^{\circ}C$ for 84 days. The quality factor mentioned above were determined in both ordinary and dark muscle at 14 day intervals through the period of storage. When cooked at $70^{\circ}C$, the changes in expressible drip were less than that of raw and the one cooked at $55^{\circ}C$. In observation of the extractability of muscle protein, no great change in extractable sarcoplasmic protein was observed, the extractable myofibrillar protein, however, showed a tendency to decrease during the period of frozen storage, accompanying the increase of the alkali-soluble protein. That was more excessive in ordinary muscle than dark muscle. Lipid oxidation of dark muscle was faster than that of ordinary muscle. Acid value was not changed, and peroxide value of the samples cooked at $70^{\circ}C\;and\;55^{\circ}$ was higher than that of raw at the early stage of the storage, after 40-50 day storage, it became lower than that of raw muscle.

Frozen dough made by sponge and dough method using sweet dough formula was quickly frozen at $-40^{\circ}C$ and stored for 8 weeks at $-20^{\circ}C$. Effects of vital wheat gluten on number of yeast cells, bread volume, specific loaf volume, hardness, and sensory properties of bread were investigated. Dough added with 4% vital wheat gluten showed higher yeast cell survival rate during freeze storage and larger specific loaf volume than other doughs. Hardness value increased with increasing amount of vital wheat gluten added, whereas, in frozen dough stored more than 4 weeks, dough added with 2% vital wheat gluten showed lower hardness value than others. Bread made with 4% vital wheat gluten showed highest sensory score.

Objective: The objective of this study was to evaluate the physicochemical, sensory and taste characteristics of commercial, frozen, dry, and wet aged Hanwoo sirloin. Methods: Grade 2 sirloin from 6 Hanwoo steers (about 30 months old) were obtained after 5 days postmortem. Samples were assigned to four groups which were commercial beef (CON, control group), frozen beef (Hanwoo frozen, HF; 40 days in $-18^{\circ}C$ freezer), wet-aged beef (Hanwoo wet-aging, HW; 21 days), and dry-aged beef (Hanwoo dry-aging, HD; 40 days). HW and HD were stored in a $80%{\pm}5%$ relative humidity cooler at $1^{\circ}C$. Results: The HF group showed a significantly higher cooking loss and expressible drip with significantly higher pH compared to other groups. In addition, protein and fat contents in the HD group were higher than those in other groups (p<0.05). The shear forces in the HW and HD groups were significantly lower than those in the CON group. The HD group had significantly higher omega-3 and polyunsaturated fatty acids compared with other groups. Glutamic acid levels in the HD group were significantly higher compared with those in other groups. Electronic tongue analysis revealed that sourness of the HD group was lower than that of other groups, whereas the HD group showed significantly higher umami, richness, and saltiness compared to other groups (p<0.05). Sensory test results revealed that the HW group had significantly higher tenderness, while the HD group had significantly higher chewiness, juiciness, and overall acceptability scores. Conclusion: These results suggest that both wet- and dry-aging treatments can effectively improve sensory characteristics, and dry-aging was much more useful to enhance umami tastes and meat quality of 2 grade Hanwoo sirloins.

This study was purposed to elucidate the migration phenomenon of fluoride from the chitinous sections into the muscle flesh of the frozen krill during thawing. The fluoride content ratio between chitinous sections and muscle flesh in the frozen krill was 94.8 : 5.2. Among the several thawing methods used, migration velocity of fluoride was the highest in the krill thawed with microwave and the lowest in the krill thawed at low temperature $(4^{\circ}C)$. The migrated amount of fluoride after thawing was various depended upon the thawing methods, and the increased amount during thawing was 2-5 times higher than Initial amount before thawing.

In this study, samples of wheat flour and dough were prepared by adding of 1, 3, or 5% branched dextrin, which is produced from the amylopectin of waxy corn starch using a cyclization reaction with a branching enzyme. The samples were then evaluated qualitatively in terms of farinogram, viscogram, and extensogram characteristics. The fermentation power of dough expansion, extensogram characteristics, specific volume, baking loss, external/internal surface appearance, and sensory qualities were also examined after 4 weeks of storage at -20$^{\circ}C$ to determine the effect on freeze-thaw stability and quality improvement of branched dextrins in the soft roll bread formulation. Furthermore, the samples along with a control were compared regarding their quality characteristics, including changes in moisture content, water activity, color, and textural characteristics during a storage period of 4 days at 20$^{\circ}C$ to determine the effect on preventing retrogradation of the branched dextrin. As the branched dextrin content increased, area and extensibility increased, whereas water absorption, fermentation power of dough expansion, resistance/extensibility ratio, baking loss, and brownness of the crust decreased. However, the control group presented significantly higher peak viscosity, resistance, specific volume, taste, overall acceptability, moisture content, water activity, springiness, cohesiveness, and resilience values than those of the branched dextrin samples, whereas lightness, hardness, and chewiness showed the reverse effect. As the storage period increased, lightness, hardness, and chewiness increased, whereas cohesiveness decreased. In conclusion, the results indicate that adding 1~3% branched dextrin into a soft roll bread formulation from frozen dough had no positive effect on freeze-thaw stability or preventing retrogradation but may provide good nutritional properties.

This study investigated the rheological properties of Calrose rice flour dispersions as well as the effects of different thawing methods (steamer, smart oven, and microwave oven) on quality characteristics of frozen turmeric rice. Apparent viscosity, consistency index, and yield stress significantly increased at higher rice flour concentrations. Magnitudes of storage modulus and loss modulus significantly increased with elevation of rice flour concentration. Frozen turmeric rice thawed using a steamer had the highest moisture content and largest size (length, width, and thickness) among all thawing methods. The L values of turmeric rice after thawing using a steamer was significantly higher than those of other thawing methods. The a value of turmeric rice after thawing using a steamer was significantly lower than those of other thawing methods. Textural properties (hardness, adhesiveness, springiness, cohesiveness, brittleness, and chewiness) of frozen turmeric rice after thawing using a steamer were significantly lower than those of other thawing methods. Therefore, it can be concluded that frozen turmeric rice after thawing using a steamer might be desirable for improvement of texture.

This study was conducted to investigate the surface spraying effect of materials on the rheological properties of frozen starch with microwave heating. Microwave helps reduce cooking time by high temperature, but swiftly snatches moisture from foods such as frozen starches (buns and noodles etc) and makes surface of foods harder. Four types of maltodextrin materials have been prepared for different concentration solutions and sprayed on surface doughs of sheet type. Sprayed dough samples were Quickly frozen at $-70^{\circ}C$ and wrapped with polypropylene film. All the treated samples were kept at 0, -20 and $-50^{\circ}C$, and then taken out periodically for measurement of the quality during storage. The quality attributes evaluated after heating with microwave energy include sensory quality retrogradation, texture, surface color and microstructure. The quality of frozen starches deteriorated with long term storage even at low temperatures of -20 and $-50^{\circ}C$, and the spray materials were found to improve the textural and physical properties of frozen starches in the microwave heating. Particularly, maltodextrin with D.E value of $9\~12$ had the most desirable effects of quality improvement.

This study investigated quality characteristics of commercial frozen chopped garlic. We collected six kinds of commercial frozen chopped garlic, four of which were domestic and the remaining two made in China. The moisture contents and drip loss of domestic frozen chopped garlic were significantly lower than those of Chinese garlic. Drip loss was positively correlated with moisture content (r=0.918, P<0.01). Total pyruvate contents of frozen chopped garlic ranged from $118.69{\pm}5.97{\sim}224.81{\pm}9.92{\mu}mol/g$ in domestic garlic and $75.27{\pm}5.91{\sim}79.35{\pm}1.79{\mu}mol/g$ in Chinese garlic. Allicin contents of frozen chopped garlic ranged from $8.91{\pm}0.34{\sim}13.09{\pm}0.35mg/g$ in domestic garlic and $5.91{\pm}0.08{\sim}6.05{\pm}0.27mg/g$ in Chinese garlic. Total thiosulfinate content of commercial frozen chopped garlic ranged from $0.60{\pm}0.07{\sim}1.33{\pm}0.12$ optical density/g. Total thiosulfinate content of commercial frozen chopped garlic was positively correlated with allicin content (r=0.892, P<0.01). Flavor patterns of commercial frozen chopped garlic measured by an electronic nose showed no difference between domestic and Chinese garlics.

This study analyzed various packaging materials and types for frozen foods and the effects of packaging materials on temperature changes during frozen process. Pouches with different film thickness were prepared and placed in an IQF freezer, then the temperature inside pouches measured using a deep thermometer. The most common types of primary packaging for frozen foods in the market was plastic pouches with polyethylene or polyamide/polyethylene multilayer materials. The temperature change inside of packaging was delayed with film thickness increased. As the size of packaged food increased, the temperature change inside the food was slowed down. In addition, the pouches with air inside took more time to reach $-30^{\circ}C$ compared to pouches with less air during frozen process. This study provides information on packaging materials and types for frozen foods and preliminary data of temperature change by different types of packaging.
