The effects of soaking and steaming time on the quality characteristics of Korean rice cake (karedduk) were investigated. As the soaking time increased, the water-binding capacity and rice floor solid content also increased. After 8 to 10 hr soaking, 75.2 to $76.8\%$ of particles were smaller than $40\;{\mu}m$, and 23.2 to $24.8\%$ within the range of 40 to $100\;{\mu}m$. Therefore, an extended soaking time reduced the particle size. Texture is an important characteristic used to differentiate karedduk varieties, and is considered by the consumer as a determinant of the overall quality and preference. The hardness, cohesiveness, gumminess and chewiness of the karedduk structure decreased with increasing steaming time, but the springiness was highest after a 40 min steaming time. The overall texture properties were also more acceptable with 8 and 10 hrs soaking times. The L value of the karedduk decreased with increasing steaming time, but the b value increased. Also, the results of the sensory evaluation showed that an 8 hr soaking time and 40 min steaming time produced more acceptable karedduk in terms of whiteness, texture, springiness, chewiness and overall acceptability.

The texture and descriptive sensory characteristics of a Korean rice cake(Karedduk) with added emulsifier were investigated after 2 and 24 hrs of storage at $5^{\circ}C$. The emulsifier, SP, was added at 0, 0.1, 0.5 and 1% levels to the dry rice flour. In the amylogram, the peak viscosity(P), hot paste viscosity(H) and cold paste viscosity(C) of the rice flour with added emulsifier were higher than those of the control. The texture property analysis by a Texture Analyzer revealed that the springiness, cohesiveness and adhesiveness of the Korean rice cake(Karedduk) with added emulsifier were similar to those of the control, while chewiness, gumminess and hardness were lower compared to the control. Also, the hardness by sensory characteristics was significantly different as compared to the control. Lastly, adding emulsifier to the Korean rice cake(Karedduk) was effective at retarding retrogradation.

This study investigated the effects of adding hard and soft wheat flour to Korean rice cakes(Karedduk) to retard retrogradation, by examining texture properties and descriptive sensory qualities after 2 and 24 hrs of storage at $5^{\circ}C$. The hard and soft wheat flour were combined with dry rice flour at levels of 0, 5, 10, and 20%. The texture properties, as analyzed by a Texture Analyzer, revealed that the springiness, cohesiveness, and adhesiveness of the rice cakes containing wheat flour were similar to those of the control, while chewiness, gumminess, and hardness were lower compared to the control. Also, in sensory analyses, hardness was significantly different in the rice cakes containing wheat flour compared to the control after 24 hrs of storage at $5^{\circ}C$. Overall, the instrumental texture properties were highly correlated with the sensory characteristics. These results suggest that adding hard and soft wheat flour to Korean rice cakes(Karedduk) is effective at retarding retrogradation.

Retarding retrogradation of Korean rice cakes(Karedduk) with a mixture of trehalose and Sun-Tender added, after 0, 24, and 48 hr of storage at $5^{\circ}C$, was analyzed by Avrami kinetics. A central composite design was used for arrangement of treatment. The two independent variables selected for retarding retrogradation analysis were amounts of trehalose(x) and Sun-Tender(y). Trehalose was added at 0, 3, 6, 9, and 12% levels, and Sun-Tender added at 0, 0.3, 0.6, 0.9, and 1.2% levels, to dry rice flour. The Avrami exponent(n) for the mixtures of 9% trehalose and 0.3% Sun-Tender, and 9% trehalose and 0.9% Sun-Tender were lower than in the control. The time constant(1/k) for the mixture of trehalose and Sun-Tender was higher than in the control. The effect of retarding retrogradation of Korean rice cakes with added mixtures of trehalose and Sun-Tender showed an increasing trend as the amount of trehalose increased. These results suggest that adding a mixture of 9% trehalose and 0.3% Sun-Tender, or 9% trehalose and 0.9% Sun-Tender to Korean rice cakes(Karedduk) is effective for retarding retrogradation.

The quality characteristics of Korean rice cakes (Karedduk) with a mixture of maltooligosaccharide and OSA (octenyl succinic acid starch) added, after 2 and 24 hr of storage at $5^{\circ}C$, was analyzed. A central composite design was used for arrangement of treatment. The two independent variables selected for retarding retrogradation analysis were amounts of maltooligosaccharide (x) and OSA (y). Maltooligosaccharide was added at 0, 3, 6, 9, and 12% levels, and OSA added at 0, 0.3, 0.6, 0.9, and 1.2% levels, to dry rice flour. The texture properties analysis using a Texture Analyzer revealed that the springiness and cohesiveness (p<0.01), chewiness, gumminess and hardness (p<0.001) were significantly different after 24 hr of storage at $5^{\circ}C$. The effect of retarding retrogradation of Korean rice cakes with added mixtures of maltooligosaccharide and OSA showed an increasing trend as the amount of maltooligosaccharide increased. Overall, the instrumental texture properties were highly correlated with the sensory characteristics. These results suggest that adding a mixture of 6% maltooligosaccharide and 0.6% OSA to Korean rice cakes (Karedduk) is effective for retarding retrogradation.

The retrogradation properties of a Korean rice cake ($Karedduk$) added with oligosaccharides after 0~30 hr of storage at $5^{\circ}C$ were examined by texture profile analysis and the Avrami equation using textural characteristics. Oligosaccharides, such as galactooligosaccharide (50%) and maltooligosaccharide, were added to dry rice flour at levels of 10%. In the amylogram, the breakdown (P-H) and consistency (C-H) of the Korean rice cake (Karedduk) added with oligosaccharides were lower than those of the control. Texture profile analysis using a Texture Analyzer revealed that the hardness of the Korean rice cake ($Karedduk$) added with oligosaccharides was lower than the control. The Avrami exponent ($n$) for the control, galactooligosaccharide (50%) 10% and maltooligosaccharide 10% addition was 2.415, 2.771 and 2.683, respectively. The time constant (1/$k$) for galactooligosaccharide (50%) 10% or maltooligosaccharide 10% addition was higher than the control. Overall, adding galactooligosaccharide (50%) 10% or maltooligosaccharide 10% to a Korean rice cake ($Karedduk$) is effective in retarding retrogradation.

Effect of the addition of maltitol to Korean rice cake (Karedduk) on its retrogradation was examined. Degree of retrogradation was also examined in terms of recrystallinity of starch and color change with a differential scanning calorimeter. As a result, retrogradation was suppressed by the increasing addition of maltitol. In particular, enthalpy showed a tendency to decrease at $25^{\circ}C$ rather than at 4$^{\circ}C$ during 4 days. In the gelatinization properties using DSC, onset temperature (To) was shown to increase slightly according to storage time. Maximum peak temperature (Tp) was shown to decrease by the addition of maltitol during 4 days. Melting enthalpy was decreased at $25^{\circ}C$ and 4$^{\circ}C$ by the addition of maltitol. The analysis X-ray diffraction also revealed that retrogradation of the Korean rice cake was suppressed by the addition of maltitol because crystalline region did not appear. The addition of maltitol into the Korean rice cake was found to result in an increase of its qualify or color stability.

Texture and descriptive sensory characteristics of a Korean rice cake (Karedduk) with added mixtures of fructooligosaccharide (95%) and emulsifier, Sodium Stearoyl Lactylate-90 (SSL-90), were investigated after 2 and 24 hr of storage at $5^{\circ}C$. A central composite design was used for the arrangement of treatment. Different levels of fructooligosaccharide (95%), 0, 3, 6, 9, and 12%, were added to dry rice flour. Also, different levels of emulsifier, 0, 0.3, 0.6, 0.9, and 1.2%, were added to the same dry rice flour. The texture properties analysis using a Texture Analyzer revealed that the chewiness, gumminess, and hardness were significantly different. The effect of retarding retrogradation of Korean rice cakes (Karedduk) with added mixtures of fructooligosaccharide (95%) and SSL-90 showed an increasing trend as the amount of fructooligosaccharide (95%) increased. Overall, the instrumental texture properties were highly correlated with the sensory characteristics. The results suggested that Korean rice cakes (Karedduk) with the addition of a mixture of fructooligosaccharide (95%) and SSL-90 can be made from the mixture of 9% fructooligosaccharide (95%) and 0.9% SSL-90 in order to retard starch retrogradation.

Retarding retrogradation of a Korean rice cake (Karedduk) added with carbohydrate materials after $0{\sim}30hrs$ of storage at $5^{\circ}C$ were investigated by Avrami equation using textural characteristics. Carbohydrate materials such as powdered sugar, trehalose, fructooligosaccharide (95%), isomalto, healtholigo, and galactooligo-saccharide (50%) were added in 0, 1, 5 or 10% levels on dry rice flour. In the amylogram, the breakdown (P-H) and consistency (C-H) for Karedduk added with carbohydrate materials were lower than those of the control. Decrease in the Avrami exponent (n) and increase in the time constant (1/k) of Karedduuk added with carbohydrate materials during storage determined by Avrami equation were important comparison factors to the control in terms of retrogradation rate analysis. The Aurami exponent (n) for control, fructooligosaccharide (95%) 10% and healtholigo 1% addition were 2.415, 1.977 and 3.297, respectively. The time constant (1/k) for fructooligosaccharide (95%) 5% and healtholigo 1% addition were lower than thecontrol. Lastly, Karedduk added with carbohydrate materials, except for fructooligosaccharide (95%) 5% and healtholigo 1% addition, was effective in retarding retrogradation.

The aim of this study was to investigate the quality characteristics of Karedduk, Korean rice cakes, containing cactus (as Opuntia humifusa) fruit powder at a concentration of 0, 2, 4, 6 and 8% during three days of storage. The moisture content of the cooked cake just before storage ranged from 45.55～49.70%, indicating that the moisture content decreased as the amount of the powder added inceased. The L value, which is a measure of the lightness of the cake color decreased as the amount of added powder increased. In addition, the L value sharply decreased after one day of storage relative to its valve just after the cake was cooked. However, no significant changes were observed at longer storage times except at a fruit powder concentration of 2%. The a value, which is a measure of the redness, was significantly increased with an increase in the amount of added powder. The b value, which is a measure of the yellowness, was the same for all the treatments regardless of the amount of the powder added. The a and b values did not display any regular patterns in terms of the amount of powder added as a function of storage time. In regards to mechanical quality characteristics, the hardness and the gumminess of the cake just cooked tended to be increase with an increase in the amount of added powder indicating that no significant differences between the non-treatments and the treatments existed. The hardness of the cake did not change after two days of storage relative to when they were just cooked at all powder concentrations: however, the hardness of the cake after three days of storage was found to drop significantly with an increase in the amount of added powder. The cohesiveness of the cake right after cooking tended to decrease with an increase in the amount of added powder. The springiness of the cake right after it was cooked and on the second day of storage, did not significantly different as a function of powder concentration. The chewiness of the cake right after cooking increased with an increase in the amount of added powder. In the sensory test, the color and the flavor of the cake containing a powder concentration of 6% was found to be the highest. In addition and the chewiness significantly with an increase in the amount of added powder. In both taste and overall acceptability, the cake containing a powder concentration of 4% was determined to be the highest, showing no significant differences in taste relative to the cakes made with a powder concluded that it would be the best to cook Karedduk which a of cactus (Opuntia humifusa) fruit powder concentration of 4~6%.
