Aloe is an attractive potential food source because it has functional uses. It has been widely used as a well-being food and drink. The antioxidant activity was estimated by measuring DPPH free radical scavenging activity. We investigated the quality characteristics of cookies prepared by adding various concentrations of aloe powder (0%, 1%, 3%, 5%, all w/w) as a substitute for flour. In this study, the DPPH free radical scavenging activity, moisture content, and hardness of cookies significantly increased with increasing aloe powder, while the pH, spread factor and L and b values slightly decreased. Sensory evaluation scores in terms of texture were shown to be very similar statistically, but color, flavor, taste, and overall acceptability scores were lower than the control. As a result of this study, the quality of cookies with the addition of 1% aloe powder were the most suitable in terms of taste, flavor, texture, and sensory properties.

The study was to investigate the quality characteristics of American waffles substituted with 0, 25, 50, 75, and 100% of kamut whole wheat flour (KWF). The KWF samples had maintaining the specific gravity of the batter until the 25% substitution. The spreadability decreased as the ratio of the KWF increased, and the pH of the 100% substitution sample were the lowest. The KWF samples had increasing baking loss rates until the 75% substitution while decreasing the water activity. Lightness and yellowness significantly decreased with increasing the KWF while redness increased. Hardness, chewiness, and gumminess of the 25% substitution sample were the highest, while the springiness and resilience were maximum with the 100% substitution. The KWF samples had increasing overall acceptability, acceptability of color, flavor, and texture until the 50% substitution. The characteristics intensity rating of crust color, bran flavor, and sweetness increased with increasing the KWF. The KWF samples had significantly higher crispiness than the control group. The frequency of the bran flavor, sweetness, nuttiness, and unpleasant increased while the egg and milk flavor, and flour taste decreased. These results suggest that the substitution of the 25~50% KWF could be the optimal to improve the quality characteristics of American waffles.

In this study, the quality characteristics of tofu prepared with added spirulina(0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, and 1%). As the concentration of spirulina increased, tofu yield decreased and the pH and turbidity increased. The Hunter L(lightness) and a(redness) values of tofu decreased as the amount of spirulina increased. Phycocyanin(C-phycocyanin, allophycocyanin and phycoerythrin) contents increased according to the spirulina amount. Moreover the antioxidant activity of tofu increased as the concentration of spirulina increased($IC_{50}$ values for control was 150.7 mg/g; 1% spirulina, 82.5 mg/g). Textural properties(TPA) for hardness, gumminess, and chewiness were higher in spirulina with added tofu, compared to those of control. Regarding the overall acceptability of sensory properties, spirulina with 0.5% added tofu had the highest scores among all treatments. From these results, it was suggested that the optimal amount of added spirulina was 0.5% for the preparation of high quality tofu.

This study examined the effects of adding Pleurotus ostreatus, Agaricus bisporus and Flammulina velutipes on the quality characteristics of cookies and multiple purposes of wheat powders. The water content, crude protein content, mineral content, color value and sensory evaluation of mushroom cookies and multiple purposes of wheat powders were measured. In the case of cookies, the water content was 1.10-1.24% and crude protein content was 8.20-9.80%. General preferences, such as appearance, color, taste and texture, increased when mushroom was added to the cookies, especially flavor, which showed a much higher preference. In the studies where mushroom was added to wheat powders, the water content was 0.57-0.92% and crude protein content was 11.90-12.80%. The addition of mushroom to both of the cookies and multiple purposes of wheat powders resulted in a remarkable increase in the mineral content, especially Fe, K. In addition, an increase in the amount of added mushrooms resulted in an increase in the hunter L and a values; however, this also resulted in a decrease in the b value.

This study evaluated the quality characteristics of Garaeduk, a traditional Korean rice cake, to which Spirulina (0, 1, 2, 3%, all w/w) was added. Moisture content of Spirulina-containing Garaeduk both before and after cooking increased with Spirulina level. During storage, moisture content was greater in Spirulina-containing cakes compared with control cakes, and the Hunter color L and b values of Spirulina-containing cakes decreased. Textural properties (hardness, chewiness), measured using a texture analyzer, of Spirulina-containing cakes were greater than those of control. During storage, hardness and chewiness of Spirulina-containing cakes remained higher than those of control cakes. The antioxidant activities of Spirulina-containing cakes increased with Spirulina content, owing to increased phycocyanin levels. Amylography showed that peak viscosity, and thus gelatinization temperature, of Spirulina-containing Garaeduk cakes were similar. Sensory preference tests revealed that Garaeduk with 2% Spirulina had the highest scores for color, odor, taste, and overall preference. It is suggested that Spirulina to 2% can be added to Garaeduk to improve quality.
