This study aims to know what the physicochemical properties and physical properties of the Korean traditional rice cake injulmi made from persimmon powder and glutinous rice(powder), and to come up with a standard recipe of it with the premixed powder of persimmon and glutinous rice. Cooked rice powder with 9 different levels of persimmon in cooling dough(75, 100 and 150${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ power with each 20, 40, and 60%) was tested for rheological parameters, the rate of swelling, degree of gelatinization, sensory evaluation, and the observation of cross section used to electronmicroscope. 1. sensory evaluation conducted by 20 university students as panelists showed that mixed glutinous rice powder and persimmon powder lost their regular forms. increase in persimmon powder content increased a thin layer of starch granule, presumably due to sugar and fiber in the mixed persimmon powder granule. 3. In cooking the rice cake with 20~60% of persimmon, it showed 6.3 to 5.5 pH. 4. Quantitative description analysis conducted by 20 university student s panelists showed that sample that sample C was preferred among 9 samples. From these results, it was concluded that glutinous rice cake cooked with 20% of persimmon powder was quiet acceptable. Optimum cooking condition for the glutinous rice with persimmon powder rice cake was 30min of cooking time and 25$0^{\circ}C$ of cooking temperature with gas oven.

This study uses turbidity and rheological measurements to examine the effects of the molecular weight (MW), substitution type and substitution degree of cellulose ether and water content on the cooking characteristics of rice noodles, the turbidity of the cooking solution, and the compression strength of the cooked noodles. When increasing the MW of cellulose ether and water content, the turbidity decreased, thereby improving the morphological stability of the rice noodles during cooking. Thus, when controlling the above factors effectively, the rice noodle cooking solution had a lower turbidity than with wheat noodles. Measuring the compression strength of the rice noodles using a rheometer was also effective for examining the pasting characteristics of the rice noodles and texture changes during cooking. As a result, the water content and MW of cellulose ether were found to affect the pasting characteristics and texture of the rice noodles more than the other factors examined.

Vitamin retention in rice bran during the extrusion cooking adapted for the rice bran stabilization was studied. The rice bran of different moisture content (9.5% and 15.6%) were extruded with cooking extruder (screw dia: 100mm. strew rpm:900. L/D ratio: 10.0) under the given conditions of specific power consumption(42.1 67.9 W/Kg) and extrusion temperatures $(99-135^{\circ}C)$. The affected retention rates of thiamine, riboflavin and niacin in extruded rice bran were determined. The extruded rice bran with higher moisture level had a lower or similar vitamin retention rate at lower specific power consumption and extrusion temperatures, relatively. The vitamin retention in extruded rice brail with the same moisture level were gradually decreased by the increased specific politer consumption and extrusion temperatures. The vitamin retention of rice bran during the extrusion cooking for the rice bran stabilization were observed as 89.9-97.0% for thiamin, 83.4- 97.3% for riboflavin and 94.0 - 97.7% for niacin, respectively.

In order to observe physical properties of rice depending on reheating, the study cooked rice developed for high quality cooked rice and analyzed physical properties of rice depending on reheating following 24 hr refrigeration. As a result of palatability of cooked rice, Samgkwang had the lowest hardness, while Daebo and Haiami had the highest one. With respect to adhesiveness, toughness and stickiness, Sindongjin exhibited lowest properties. After cooking each rice by cultivars, the study observed their color, texture properties, and microstructure immediately after cooking, after 24 hr of refrigeration and further on. Lightness of cooked rice tended to drop because of refrigeration and reheating. Analysis of texture properties after cooking revealed that Haiami marked the highest points in all categories. When stored for 24 hr after cooking, hardness, viscosity and chewiness increased in cooked rice followed by a decrease after reheating. Observation of the microstructure of cooked rice using a scanning electron microscope revealed that Haiami had its particles in the center as closely condensed. It was apparent that all the cultivars formed stoma in an obvious manner because of refrigeration and reheating. The results of the present study show that physical properties of cooked rice varied according to reheating after cooking and storage depending on the inherent characteristics of rice cultivars.

Cooked rice was prepared by the conventional cooking method being used among Korean families. The bottom layer (very slightly roasted and charred) and upper layer of the cooked rice in a cooking vessel were collected separately in order to determine the chemical changes and volatile carbonyl formation occurring in rice during the cooking process. Amino acids, especially free amino acid contents were reduced with the decrease of reducing sugar in rice after cooking. A little change was shown in the fatty acid composition of lipid fractions, however, decreased iodine values and increased fatty acid values were observed after cooking process. Volatile carbonyl compounds from cooked rice were isolated and 8 carbonyls of them were identified. A significant difference of relative composition of the identified carbonyls was found between the upper layer and bottom layer of cooked rice. Generally, the cooked rice obtained from the bottom layer had shown a little more changes in chemical composition and a stronger browning flavour than those of the upper layer of cooked rice.

The aim of this study was to investigate the texture change of cooked rice within a short time after cooking. Using four instant rice brands, the texture change within 30 min after cooking was measured by the texture profile analysis (TPA) method for hardness, adhesiveness, cohesiveness, chewiness, and springiness with different compression ratios (30, 70%) and cross-head speeds (0.5, 1.0 mm/s). In the case of cohesiveness, adhesiveness, and chewiness, there were significant differences in the rice textures at 20 to 30 min after cooking compared to that in the sample immediately after cooking. In particular, adhesiveness showed significant differences at 10 min after cooking. However, there were little significant differences within 30 min for springiness. In conclusion, when measuring cooked rice texture, it is desirable to measure it, if possible, within 10 to 20 min after cooking.

The mechanism of cooking rice was investigated using a japonica type rice variety, Akibare, of 50%, 70% and 90% polishing degrees. The hardness of rice cooked at various cooking temperatures ($90^{\circ}-120^{\circ}C$) was measured with a Texturometer. The cooking rate followed the equation of a first-order reaction. The reaction rate constants were in the increasing order of 50%, 70% and 90% polished rice. The temperature coefficient of the reaction rate constant at cooking temperatures of ($90^{\circ}-100^{\circ}C$) was about 2 in all rice samples. The activation energies of cooking at temperatures below $100^{\circ}C$ and above $100^{\circ}C$ were about 17,000 and 9,000 cal/mole, respectively. The polishing degrees and water soaking time of rice did not affect the activation energy of cooking; however, the lower polishing degrees and shorter soaking increased the cooking time The experimental results suggested that the cooking process of rice comprises two mechanisms: At temperatures below $100^{\circ}C$ the cooking rate is controlled by the reaction rate of rice constituents with water, and at temperatures above $100^{\circ}C$, it is controlled by the rate of diffusion of water through the cooked portion (or layer) toward the interface of uncooked core in which the reaction is occurring.

The changes in water uptake rate, cooking properties, color of rice grains and gelatinization properties of brown and milled rices during storage were studied. The brown and milled rices were stored at $4^{\circ}$ and $25^{\circ}C$ for 5 and 3 months, respectively. The water uptake rate constants of rices during hydration at $30^{\circ}$ were linearly decreased during storage. The volume increase rate also showed similar trend to the water uptake rate. The terminal point of cooking of milled rice at $100^{\circ}$ in a sealed brass vessel was about a half of that of brown rice. The cooking rate of milled rice was 1.8 times faster than that of brown rice. The cooking rate constant of both brown and milled rices linearly decreased with the increase of storage time. The L(lightness) value increased for brown rice grain and remained unchanged for milled rice grain during storage. The peak viscosity of rice flours by amylograph increased during storage, but enthalpy for gelatinization decreased, as measured by differential scanning calorimetry.

This study used gas chromatography combined with the microelectron capture detection method to determine the most effective washing and cooking methods for removing isoprothiolane from rice. The initial isoprothiolane concentrations in brown and polished rice, before washing, were 17.03 mg/kg and 1.67 mg/kg, respectively. Residual concentrations declined with more washing cycles (19.3-59.3% for brown rice; 43.1-66.5% for polished rice); and by increasing the temperature of the washing water from 5℃ to 40℃ (56.6-63.1% for brown rice; 67.1-74.9% for polished rice). Hand-washing samples using gentle stirring or harsh rubbing reduced pesticide concentrations by 63.1-71.6% for brown rice, versus 75.4-87.4% for polished rice. Reduction in isoprothiolane concentrations varied based on the rice cooker type and whether the rice was pre-soaked. Immediate cooking using an electric- or pressure-cooker showed 78.5% and 78.4% reduction in brown rice, compared with 94.0% and 94.0% for polished rice, respectively. Pre-cooking immersion for 30 min showed similar reductions of 83.4% and 83.4% in brown rice, versus 95.8% and 95.8% in polished rice. The results of this study suggest that the most effective method for removing residual isoprothiolane from both brown rice and polished rice was to wash six times (with vigorous rubbing during the 2nd and 3rd washing) in 7-fold water at 40℃, followed by immersion for 30 min before cooking. Regardless of the type of rice cooker, heating is sufficient to remove an average of 83.4% and 95.8% of isoprothiolane from brown rice and polished rice, respectively.
