This study investigated the quality characteristics of Sulgidduk with different levels (0, 4, 8, 12, 16%) of added yam powder by measuring water content, color value, texture, and sensory quality. The water content of Sulgidduk decreased significantly (p<0.05) by increasing the amount of yam powder. The Hunter's L value of Sulgidduk decreased, and the a and b values increased significantly. Mechanical texture parameters, such as hardness, cohesiveness, gumminess, adhesiveness, and chewiness decreased significantly (p<0.05) as the amount of added yam powder increased. The springiness of the 0, 4, 8 and 12% yam Sulgidduk was not different significantly, but springiness decreased significantly in the 16% yam Sulgidduk. Hardness increased significantly during storage, whereas cohesiveness, gumminess, and adhesiveness decreased. Springiness of the control sample increased significantly, but the Sulgidduk with added yam powder had the highest springiness levels during the first and second days. Chewiness was highest during the first day in all Sulgidduk preparations. The 12% yam Sulgidduk was the best in color, flavor, taste, moistness, chewiness, and overall acceptability from the sensory evaluation. These results indicate that Sulgidduk with 12% added yam powder had the best quality in sensory and texture analyses.

This study was carried out to investigate the quality characteristics of yellow layer cake mulberry powder. After making yellow layer cake with mulberry powder, water activity, crumb texture, crumb color, and sensory tests were investigated. After 1 day of storage, Aw of control with weak flour did not show any significant difference, whereas those with 1, 3. 5% mulberry powder showed a significant decrease in Aw. During storage, the Aw values of yellow layer cakes containing mulberry powder were consistent. Hardness, springiness, cohesiveness, and gumminess of the yellow layer cakes containing mulberry powder all decreased compared to those of control. Hardness, springiness, cohesiveness, and gumminess all increased with storage time. Further a higher percentage of mulberry powder was associated with a lower L value, but higher a value. b values were lower in the 1% and 3% mulberry powders, but 5% showed a slightly higher b value. An increase in storage time was associated with decreased L and b values and increased a value. The micrographs of yellow layer cakes with mulberry powder showed a slightly coarser porosity than that of controls. The results of the sensory test showed that the over-all acceptability of 1% mulberry powder cake was the best.

Response surface methodology (RSM) was performed in order to determine the optimal mixing conditions of different amounts of egg and sugar for the preparation of soybean pudding. The experiments were designed according to a central composite design by designating whole egg and sugar content as independent variables. Meanwhile, sweetness, Commission Internationale de I'Eclairage (CIE) color parameters (L*, a* and b* values), hardness, cohesiveness, springiness, and gumminess were response variables. Overall optimization, conducted by overlaying the contour plots under investigation, was able to determine the optimal range of dependent variables within which the 14 responses were simultaneously optimized. The point chosen as a representative of this optimal region corresponded to 50.00 g of whole egg and 31.66 g of sugar. Under these conditions, the model predicted L* value=80.03, a* value=-5.44, b* value=27.86, sweetness=21.23 ($^{\circ}Brix$), hardness=$25.45{\times}10^5$ (dyne/$cm^2$), cohesiveness=67.90 (%), springiness=46.20 (%), and gumminess=12.71 (g).

This study was to examine the possibility of making use of the edible portion on the inner layer of chestnut, which is produced as wastes in the chestnut processing, into chestnut-noodle. To conduct this study, the chestnut powder, which is separated and collected from the inner layer, was used to examine the possibility of making chestnut-noodle. The structure of chestnut-noodle was observed by Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and the sensory quality was conducted to examine usability of the chestnut-noodle as compared to wheat flour noodle by Quantitative Descriptive Analysis (QDA). The ten sensory qualities : appearance, color, flavor, hardness, elasticity, cohesiveness, adhesiveness, chewiness, gumminess, and acceptability, were evaluated by 10 point Likert type scale with 10-50% of different ratio of chestnut powder. The chestnut-noodle made by 50% of the chestnut powder got higher points than 10 % of chestnut powder mix in color. However, the chestnut-noodle made by 50% of the chestnut powder got lower points than wheat flour noodle in flavor. Finally, there was no significant difference in hardness, elasticity, cohesiveness, adhesiveness, chewiness and gumminess between the chestnut-noodle made by 30% of the chestnut powder and wheat flour noodle.

Physicochemical and sensory characteristics of the green tea dasik varying the added value of oligosaccharide were investigated and the products were surveyed by elementary school students regarding the acceptability. Protein and ash contents were significantly higher and fat contents were significanlty lower in the samples with oligosaccharides compared to those in commercial ones(p<0.05). Commercial samples had significantly higher values in all of the textural characteristics using textural analyzer compared to those of the developed dasik sample groups. In analytical sensory evaluation, varying the amount of oligosaccharide, commercial samples had significantly higher values of sweetness, hardness, and cohesiveness and lower values of savory aroma and falvor compared to those of developed dasik(p<0.05). Savory aroma and flavor were highly negatively correlated with textural hardness, springiness, chewiness, gumminess, and cohesiveness(p<0.01), while sensory sweetness and hardness were significantly positively correlated with textural springiness(p<0.05), chewiness, gumminess, and cohesiveness(p<0.01). When surveying elementary school students regarding the acceptability of green tea dasik and commercial samples, green tea dasik 2 was the most preferred with significance in color. Regarding aroma, green tea dasik 1 received the highest acceptability (p<0.05). In the flavor, both dasik 1 and 2 received higher score than those of the commercial dasik. In overall acceptability, both green tea dasik 1 and 2 were preferred to the commercially sold ones with significance(p<0.05).

This study investigated quality characteristics of sourdough bread using fermented fig. Bread containing sourdough, compared with control group, showed high inclination in moisture content. Sample with 20% of sourdough was the highest, and sample with 40% of sourdough was the lowest. There was a significant difference among samples. As for appearance and cross structure of sourdough bread with fermented fig, there was an inclination that the bigger sourdough bread is, the bigger cell is and the more even its structure is. As for the chromaticity, sample with 20% of sourdough showed the lowest value of L and value of b. Value of L and b got lower as its volume got bigger. Value of a, on the one hand, showed no fixed inclination. As for textural characteristics, sourdough bread showed lower hardness, cohesiveness, and gumminess, and higher springiness and cohesiveness than control group. There were significant differences among all items, but there was no significant difference in hardness, springiness, cohesiveness, and gumminess among samples. Changes in result of sensory analysis suggested that sample with 20% of sourdough showed the highest overall preference including color, flavor, taste, and appearance. On the other hand, sample with 40% of sourdough showed the lowest overall preference. Considering preference through sensory analysis and quality characteristics of sourdough bread with fermented fig, therefore, it seemed that sourdough bread with 20% of sourdough had the best characteristics.

The persimmon puree was hydrolyzed with commercial polysaccharide hydrolyzing enzymes, Viscozyme and Celluclast and jam was prepared with the enzyme treated persimmon juice by addition of pectin. The textural characteristics of the jam were studied for the effects of pectin addition and storage temperature. When the persimmon jam was prepared with the enzyme treated juice with addition of pectin(2.2∼3.0%), the hardness of the go] was stabilized at the addition level of more than 2.8% as measured by %sag. The hardness, cohesiveness, adhesiveness, and gumminess were also significantly increased as the amount of pectin addition increased, whereas the cohesiveness and elasticity did not change significantly. The gel prepared with the puree hydrolyzed with Celluclast generally showed higher hardness, gumminess and adhesiveness and less cohesiveness and elasticity than those treated with Viscozyme. Higher temperature (17$^{\circ}C$) caused a significant decrease in most of the textural properties except elasticity. Results of sensory test showed the orange colors was much improved by the Celluclast treatment, while other characteristics such as total acceptability and texture were not significantly different.
