The purpose of this study was to evaluate cookies prepared with five different quantities (0, 5, 10, 15, and 20%) of watermelon powder (WP). This study analyzed quality characteristics, consumer liking, and CATA (check-all-that-apply) of the samples. The density and pH of the cookie dough and the L-value of the cookies tended to decrease as the amount of watermelon powder increased (p<0.05), whereas the spread factor, a-value, and hardness of the cookies tended to increase as the amount of watermelon powder increased (p<0.001). The b-value tended to increase up to WP10, but it tended to decrease from WP15 (p<0.001). The results of the evaluation of consumer liking showed that overall liking was the highest for WP5 and lowest for WP20 (p<0.05). In the analysis of the CATA survey, the main reasons for liking for all the samples were 'Appearance', 'Color', 'Sweet taste', 'Nutty odor/flavor', 'Crispiness', and 'Familiarity'. WP5 showed the most diverse reasons for being liked. The common reason for disliking samples with the addition of watermelon powder was 'Residual feel in the mouth'. In the correspondence analysis, attributes of 'Stale taste', 'Clean taste', 'Softness', 'Familiarity', 'Moistness', 'Color', 'Blandness' were detected in the WP0 and WP5. The results indicate that WP5 with a 5% supplementation of watermelon powder is appropriate for improving the quality and consumer acceptability of the cookies.

Three rice varieties of Akibare (japonica), Milyang 30 (indica) and Taebaeg (indica) were investiated for sensory and physical qualities of cooked rices during storage at the temperature range of $4^{\circ}C$ and $70^{\circ}C$ for 25 hours. The qualities studied were sensory attributes of odor, taste and appearance which were evaluated by multiple comparison method. The other properties were size of rice granule and separation Property of individual cooked rices in water. The sensory results showed that all of the descriptions except moldy odor and oily taste were scored higher values for cooked rices of Akibare than those values of Milyang 30 and Taebaeg. It was found that storage of cooked rices at various temperatures resulted a significant decrease in most of sensory qualities except moldy odor and oily taste which were rather increased. The quality change was more affected at storage at low temperature, particularly at $4^{\circ}C$, than at higher temperatures. The property of individual separation of cooked rices in water for freshly cooked rices showed that Akibare was separated 44.4% after 1 minute shaking while Milyang 30 and Taebaeg had the higher separation value of 53.1%, and 51.0%, respectively. This characteristic was noticeably reduced after 3 hours storage and then steady increased during further storage. It was also found that the separation percent was generality increased as the storage temperature increased from $4^{\circ}$ to $70^{\circ}C$.

This study investigated the sensory characteristics (texture, odor, taste and color) of jerky produced from ground sea rainbow trout (SRT) Oncorhynchus mykiss frame muscle (FM). The hardness of the ground SRT-FM jerky was 453.9±91.0 g/cm², which was lower than that of commercial animal jerky (893.5±404.6 g/cm²) and commercial fish jerky (1,394.4±363.5 g/cm²). The difference in the hardness values of the ground SRT-FM jerky and commercial animal jerky was not significant. The volatile basic nitrogen content of the ground SRT-FM jerky was 48.3±1.6 mg/100 g, which was higher than that of commercial fish jerky (21.6±6.2 mg/100 g) and commercial animal jerky (18.2±6.3 mg/100 g). However, the fish odor of the ground SRT-FM jerky was masked by the presence of various additives. The hydrophilic and lipophilic browning indices of the ground SRT-FM jerky were higher than those of the commercial jerky. The total taste value of the ground SRT-FM jerky was 169.0, and the major amino acids were glutamic acid and aspartic acid. These results suggest that ground SRT-FM jerky would be acceptable to consumers.

Changes in chemical composition, viscosity and color during fermentation of improved Kochoojang from four starch sources (wheat, barley, rice and glutinous rice) were examined. Analyses included measurements of moisture, reducing sugars, amino nitrogen, pH, total acidity, viscosity, color and sensory panel scores for viscosity, color, odor and taste. Changes in chemical composition were similar for all Kochoojang products. Decrease in viscosity was greatest during the first 10 days of fermentation. Hunter tristimulus values decreased gradually during fermentation, and total color difference after 60 days was greatest for rice flour Kochoojang. Sensory evaluation showed that the viscosity of rice flour Kochoojang was less desirable than that of the others. However, no significant differences were found in color, odor and taste of all Kochoojang products. A high negative correlation was observed between Hunter a value and visual preference.

We investigated the quality of soybean paste(Doenjang) fermented by BAcillus brevis. The results obtained were as follows : soybean paste fermented by Bacillus brevis had alkaline pH and yellow ochre color. Dextrinizing activity was about 98 D.P. unit from 5th to 25th day of fermentation at 3$0^{\circ}C$ and after that day somewhat decreased . Saccharifying activity was respectively 6.1, 7.2, 6.8, 6.4 S.P. unit on 5, 15, 25 and 35th day of fermentation. Protease activity suddenly increased after 15th day of fermentation and was 250, 275, 299 unit on15, 25, 35 th day of fermentation , respectively. The most abundant free amino acid was found to be glutamic acid (561.8mg%) in soybean paste fermented by Bacillus brevis. In case of free sugar and non-volatile organic acid, fructose and oxalic acid showed highest content of 10.25mg% on 25th day and 12.20mg% on 15th day. The contents of free amino acids, free sugars, organic acids in soybean paste fermented by B.brevis were most abundant after 25 days of fermentation and this results were similar to that of traditional soybean paste. The odor of soybean paste fermented by Bacillus brevis was improved to be a nice soybean paste odor on 25th day of fermentation. However, sensory evaluation value of the taste of it decreased after 10 th day of fermentation.

This study compared the food quality of salmonid fishes according to the species, country of origin, and separated part, such as fillet and frame. The proximate composition of chum salmon from Norway (CS-N) was 74.4% moisture, 19.5% crude protein, 4.2% crude lipid, and 1.2% ash. These values were within roughly 1% for the other salmon species. There was no significant difference (at P<0.05) in the Hunter a value of salmon muscle according to sepatated parts. However, there was a significant difference (P<0.05) in Hunter a value of salmon muscle according to the species and country of origin. There were significant differences in odor intensity and hardness of the salmon according to the species. The major free amino acid in all of the salmon muscles was anserine, which ranged from 61.3 to 73.0%. The taste value was the highest for salmon imported from Alaska (CS-A), followed by pink salmon, CS-N, and muscle separated from the frame (AS-C). In the taste value of all salmon muscles, the major amino acid was glutamic acid. The total amino acid content of salmon muscles ranged from 18.36 to 19.64 g/100 g, and the major amino acids were glutamic acid and aspartic acid. There were differences in the mineral contents, including Ca, P, K, and Fe, and fatty acid composition of salmon muscle according to species.

This study was conducted to evaluate and compare the quality changes of commercial sliced and pizza cheeses processed by gamma and electron beam irradiation. The $L^*$-value of sliced and pizza cheeses decreased and the $a^*$-value decreased only in pizza cheese by both irradiation sources. There was no change in pH. There was no difference in 2-thiobarbituric acid reactive substances (TBARS) value between non-irradiated and irradiated samples at a dose of 3 kGy or less (p<0.05). However, both irradiation sources resulted in increased TBARS value in sliced and pizza cheeses at 5 kGy. Sensory evaluation revealed that irradiation influenced odor, taste and overall acceptability of both cheeses and may cause the limitation of consumers' acceptance for irradiated cheese products. Results indicate that both gamma and electron beam irradiations with less than 3 kGy may not influence significantly the physicochemical quality of sliced and pizza cheeses. However, to meet a market requirement, a method to overcome the sensory deterioration of cheeses should be developed and applied.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the quality characteristics of fish paste added with different amounts (0%, 0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, and 2%) of spirulina powder. Specifically, moisture content, pH value, color value, texture value, total polyphenol content, DPPH radical scavenging activity, and sensory evaluation were measured in the samples. The moisture content of the fish paste added (0.5%, 1%, 1.5%, and 2%) ranged from 68.60% to 69.03%, and the increased amounts of spirulina powder in the fish paste tended to decrease the pH value. For the Hunter color values, the L, a values of surface and inside of the fish paste decreased with increased amounts of spirulina powder. The b values of the fish paste increased with increased amounts of spirulina powder. In the texture meter test, the hardness, gumminess, and adhesiveness decreased with the increased amounts of spirulina powder, and chewiness of group adding spirulina powder was measured lower than control. Springiness of the fish paste did not appear statistically significantly different among the samples according to the increased amounts of spirulina powder. Total polyphenol content of fish paste added with spirulina powder increased with increased amounts of spirulina powder, and DPPH radical scavenging was heightened according to increased amounts of spirulina powder. In sensory evaluation, the addition of 1% spirulina powder had the best score in odor, texture, taste, and overall preference. These results suggest that spirulina powder can be applied to fish paste to increase quality, preference, and functionality.

This study was conducted to investigate the effect of Chinese artichoke powder on the physicochemical properties and the sensory characteristics of yanggaeng. According to the increasing contents of Chinese artichoke powder, the $^{\circ}Brix$ value and pH levels of yanggaeng were significantly decreased whereas the moisture contents of yanggaeng was significantly increased. The result of color measurement shown that L value of groups containing Chinese artichoke powder was lower than that of control group, but a value and b value of groups containing Chinese artichoke powder were higher. Texture measurement score in terms of cohesiveness, chewiness, and brittleness for yanggaeng were significantly decreased according to the levels of added Chinese artichoke powder content. The contents of total polyphenol, DPPH radical scavenging activity, and NSA of groups containing Chinese artichoke powder were higher than those of control group. As Chinese artichoke powder increased, antioxidative activity also became bigger. Sensory evaluation scores in terms of appearance, odor, taste, texture, and overall preference of groups with 2% and 4% of Chinese artichoke powder did not show any significantly differences when compared to the control group. Based on these findings, current study suggest that addition of 4% Chinese artichoke powder was the best substitution ratio for yanggaeng.

Tomato sauce were prepared with five different thickening agents including roux (TR), non-glutinous rice powder (TN), glutinous rice powder (TG), potato starch (TP) and tapioca starch (TT) to examine proximate composition (moisture, carbohydrate, crude protein, crude fat, crude ash, crude ash), calorie, color value, pH, salinity, $^{\circ}Brix$, reducing sugar, viscosity and sensory test (attribute difference, acceptance). The results were as follows: Moisture, carbohydrate content were the lowest while crude fat and calorie were the highest in TR (roux). On the other hand, moisture, carbohydrate content were the highest while crude protein, crude fat and calorie were the lowest in TP (potato starch) and TT (tapioca starch). Using potato starch and tapioca starch are supposed to be prepared low-fat, low-calorie tomato sauce. L value was the highest in TN (non-glutinous rice powder), a value was the highest in TP (potato starch), b values was the highest in TR (roux). pH of tomato sauce showed a range of 5.24 to 5.39. TG (glutinous rice powder) was the highest and TT (tapioca starch) was the lowest in pH. TP (potato starch) was the highest salinity, reducing sugar was the lowest. TG (glutinous rice powder) was the lowest salinity, $^{\circ}Brix$ was the highest. And TR (roux) was the lowest $^{\circ}Brix$, reducing sugar was the highest. In viscosity, TG (glutinous rice powder) was the highest and TT (tapioca starch) was the lowest. The attribute difference test results was the highest in gloss, color intensity, tomato odor, tomato taste, pure taste in TT (tapioca starch) and savory taste, oily taste, thickness, residue was the highest in TR (roux). The preference test results reveal that the appearance, flavor, taste, texture and overall acceptance level was the highest in TP (potato starch) and TT (tapioca starch). The results of this study, tomato sauce prepared potato starch and tapioca starch instead of the traditional roux was higher in sensory acceptability. Recently, people is avoided high-fat and high-calorie foods, and potato starch and tapioca starch are confirmed that the tomato sauce can be made of a low-fat and low-calorie.
