The sensory quality describing terms of Takju were surveyed by questionair and classified according to the sensory characteristics. The effects of thermal treatment for the pasteurization of Takju on the sensory quality were tested and statistically evaluated. The important sensory quality attributes of Takju were white, gray, and yellow for color, acidic and yeasty for smell, sour, astringent, bitter and sweet for taste and gritty, viscous and carbonated for mouthfeel. The organoleptic properties of grayness, yeasty and cooked smell, astringent and bitter taste and thickness increased, while sourness, sweetness, yellowness, grittiness and carbonated feel decreased by the pasteurization treatments, heating $82^{\circ}C$, $93^{\circ}C$ or $135^{\circ}C$ for 9 seconds. These changes coincided with the overall reductions in the preference scores of pasteurized Takju. The degree of sensory quality deterioration appeared to be affected to some extent by the heating temperature.

Flavor profiles on regular and low-calorie French type salad dressings were carried out in the two different temperatures(5$^{\circ}C$ and 25$^{\circ}C$). Data collected through consensus discussion. Panelists found less oil flavor and after-taste in the low-calorie dressing, which was to be expected, since water has been substituted for oil to reduce the calories. The two salad dressing had a moderate aroma and flavor of cider venegar, with a slight taste of distilled vinegar. It was balanced by a tomato flavor consisting of tomato paste, tomato sauce, and tomato juice. There were slight aroma and flavor of spices, including onion and galic, and a moderateamount of oil in the regular dressing. The overall sweet and sour flavor impression were in the low-moderate range, and were well balanced. The amplitude of the low calorie dressing was moderate, being slightly higher than that of the regular dressing. Temperature effects seemed to influence more one the low-calorie samples than regular samples.

The analysis of the change in the herbal tea composition according to the difference in processing conditions result. Was slightly reduced crude is treated ash puffing process was relatively increased, moisture, crude protein, the solid elution rate than the roasting process. Benzopyrene content was significantly reduced to 0.18 ppb from 0.35 ppb. Generation of food $B({\alpha})P$ is mainly include the thermal decomposition of food cooking, when the processing which is a main component of food carbohydrate, protein, fat reason despite severe heat treatment as a whole is to be detected even though the $B({\alpha})P$ in this way is considered to be. Generally the taste, aroma and color did not show a big difference but tasted quite stuffy and the strong sour taste reduced its preference.

The effects of incorporating hot water extract of Schisandra chinensis fruit on the physicochemical and sensory properties of Sikhe were investigated. The extract was incorporated at 5 levels (0, 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50%, v/v) by replacing equivalent amount of distilled water. The pH decreased while the soluble solids content increased significantly with the increase in the extract replacement (p<0.05). Redness ($a^*$-value) increased significantly as the extract concentration increased (p<0.05); on the other hand, lightness ($L^*$-value) and yellowness ($b^*$-value) did not show any direct relationships with the extract replacement. Color, sour taste, and sweet taste except for Sikhe flavor were distinctively classified by the sensory analyses (p<0.05). Correlation analysis indicated that level of extract incorporation was well-correlated with all the physicochemical and sensory properties studied except for $L^*$- and $a^*-$ value. Finally, the consumer test based on Friedman-type statistic, suggested that 10% incorporation of the hot water extract of Omija fruit was recommended for making Sikhe.

The effects of fermentation agent and fermentation temperature on the quality of Bori-sangoedduk We examined the effects of fermentation agent and fermentation temperature on the quality characteristics of Bori-sangoedduk a traditional dduk(rice cake) from Jeju, Korea. Bori-sangoedduk was prepared by mixing wheat flour, barely flour, and Borisul or Takju as the fermentation agent the mixture was then fermented at 30, 35, and $40^{\circ}$C. for 3 hr, and steamed. The L- value of the Takju group was higher than that of the Borisul group, and the samples fermented at $30^{\circ}$C in each group had higher than L-values than those fermented at $35^{\circ}$C and $40^{\circ}$C . The a- and b-values did not differ significantly by the fermentation agents and fermentation temperatures. The loaf volume of the Borisul group was higher than that of the Takju group however, there were no significant differences according to fermentation temperature. The values of hardness, springiness, and cohesiveness were lower in the Borisul group than in the Takju group due to a greater number of pores and surface cracks. Hardness, springiness, and cohesiveness values were highest at fermentation temperatures of 30, 35, and $40^{\circ}$C , respectively, in both groups, compared to samples at other temperatures. In the acceptance test, the Takju group was preferred over the Borisul group for appearance, texture, taste, flavor, and overall preference. There were also statistically significant preferences in taste, flavor, and overall preference for samples fermented at $40^{\circ}$C , in both groups, compared to those fermented at $30^{\circ}$C and $35^{\circ}$C. In the descriptive test, there were no differences in color according to fermentation agent and fermentation temperature, however, the Takju group was shinier than the Borisul group. In addition, the Takju group was harder and springier than the Borisul group, and had less sour taste and flavor than the Borisul group. Finally, in terms of overall preference, we found that Bori-sangoedduk made with Takju and fermented at $40^{\circ}$C for 3 hr was the best formula, due particularly to its taste and flavor.

The properties of Puchu(Allium odorum L.)kimchi prepared with different methods were investigated by measuring organoleptic and microbiological properties up to 43 days at 10$\^{C}$ right after preparation. Five conditions of making Puchukimchi included: the addition of salt (treatment A), soybean sauce (treatment B), soybean sauce and perilla seed powder (treatment C), anchovy sauce (treatment D), anchovy sauce and glutinous rice paste(treatment E). Sensory evaluation showed high scores in the appearance, smell, sour taste, good taste, savory taste, texture, and overall acceptability of Puchukimchi prepared with soybean sauce(treatment B). However, treatment C had the best score in good taste. In the intial stage of fermentation, treatment C had higher total microbial counts than others, but in the final stage, treatment E had higher counts than others. Treatment A had less total microbial counts than others throughout the fermentation. The maximum numbers of lactic acid bacteria in other treatments were in the order of treatments A>B>D. In the final stage of fermentation, treatment B had the least number of lactic acid bacteria composed of Pediococcus, Streptococcus, Leuconostoc and Lactobacillus. Streptococcus reached the maximum level at the 8 th day of fermentation, and the number of Lactobacillus was increased with the lapse of fermentation time. It was shown that fermentation patterns of Puchukimchi were influenced by the preparation methods used.

Objective : The aim of this study is to analyze medicinal herbs, the ingredients of traditional Korean liquor, focusing on efficacy in the traditional Korean medicine. Through this study, for vitalizing traditional Korean liquor market, the researchers attempt to explain the superiority of traditional Korean liquor and the advantages of using herbs to brew alcoholic beverages. Method : We conducted a research targeting traditional Korean liquors in domestic market from July through september 2012, and finally 70 kinds of liquor were selected and analyzed. Results : Among traditional liquors, fermented liquors are most common. When comparing regions of brewery, the central region of Korea, Gyeonggi-do and Chungcheongnam-do, is major brew area. 37 liquors contain just one medicinal herb. followed 10 liquors contain two medicinal herbs. The most frequently used medicinal herb is Ginseng Radix. And Lycii Fructus, Schisandrae Fructus, Angelicae Gigantis Radix and Chrysanthemi Indici Flos are well used medicinal herbs to brew traditional liquors. In the classification of efficacy of medicinal herbs, tonifying and replenishing medicinal herbs are most popular as ingredients in the traditional alcohols, astringent medicinal herbs, exterior releasing medicinal herbs and heat clearing medicinal herbs are also frequently used. Investigation of tastes and properties of the herbs, it reached a conclusion as below: sweet taste is most common, followed by sour taste and bitter taste. Warm property is account for 50% approximately, followed by cold property. Conclusion : Medicinal herbs have been widely used in the traditional Korean liquor. It came out into the open that the liquor with medicinal herbs is very good for our body in terms of longevity and invigoration. However, liquor consumers concern about not only the efficacy but also the taste, scent and color. Therefore, further study about these things would be required to demonstrate the superiority of the traditional Korean liquor.

Physicochemical and sensory properties of turnip kimchi prepared with traditional two cultivars were examined during fermentation at 0$\^{C}$ Greater decrease in pH and reducing sugar content, and higher increase of acidity' was observed in green-colored turnip kimchi than red-colored one. Lactobacilli number of green one was greater than that of red one. Antocyanin content increased upto day 45-50 and then decreased, the anthocyanin content of red one was higher than that of green one. The Hunter color L and a values increased gradually upto day 30 and then decreased, and the a value of green one was lower than that of red one. The hardness, fracturability and chewiness of turnip, determined by texture analyser, decreased during fermentation, and the values of textural parameters were smaller than those of red one. Sensory evaluation showed that the scores of 'sour odor', 'sour taste, 'sweet taste', 'savory taste, and carbonate taste' of green one were higher than those of red one, but the scores of 'hardness', 'fracturability' and 'chewiness' were lower than those of red one. Meanwhile there were no difference in 'juiciness'. Score of 'over-all acceptability' of green one was the highest with 8.8-8.9 on day 30, 40 and 45, but the score of red one was the highest with 8.5-9.1 at day 40 and 45. On the 70th day, this score of green one decreased to 2.2, but the red one maintained 6.3 on the 70th day of fermentation.

Quality characteristics of curd yoghurt containing loquat extract were evaluated in terms of sensory properties and quality-keeping properties(number of viable cells, pH, titratable acidity). Curd yoghurts were prepared from $10\%(w/v)$ skim milk added with $10\~20\%(v/v)$ loquat extract and fermented by the mixed culture of Streptococcus thermophilus and Lactobacillus acidophilus(1:1) at $37^{\circ}C$ for 12 hours. The results of sensory evaluation of curd yoghurts indicated that flavor, sweet taste, sour taste, aftertaste and overall acceptability of the curd yoghurts with addition of loquat extract showed higher preference than a curd yoghurt with only skim milk. And the curd yoghurt containing $15\%$ loquat extract added $20\~25\%(w/v)$ oligosaccharide had the higher sensory scores in sweet taste, sour taste, aftertaste and overall acceptability among the treatments. When the curd yoghurts added with $15\%$ loquat extract were kept at $4^{\circ}C\;and\;20^{\circ}C$ for 31 days, the number of viable cell counts of the lactic acid bacteria were slightly higher than those in the curd yoghurt with no addition of loquat extract. And also the pH and titratable acidity of all yoghurts were not significantly changed during the storage at $4^{\circ}C$ for 31 days, while the pH and titratable acidity were remarkedly changed during the yoghurts stored at $20^{\circ}C$ for 31 days. The keeping quality of the curd yoghurts with addition of $15\%$ loquat extract was relatively good at $4^{\circ}C$ and $20^{\circ}C$ for 31 days.
