A literature on Korean rice cakes by ingredients and preparation methods was reviewed with published literatures in Korea from 1950 to 1995. The result were as followed; 1. The 46 volumes about preparation of Korean rice cakes were reported. There were 32 steamed (Jeung-byung), 6 pounded (Do-byung), 4 fried (Yu-jeon-byung), and 4 boiled Korean rice cakes (Kyung-Dan). This result showed that steamed Korean rice cake was the most frequently studied among any other kinds of Korean rice cakes. 2. The reports on preparation of Korean rice cakes were rare during $1950's{\sim} 1960's$. In 1970's, there were few papers about basic study for Korean rice cakes. And it was reached 8 volumes of steamed, each 1 volume of fried or boiled Korean rice cakes. From 1990's, the more scientific researches were progressed vigorously so reached 11 volumes till 1995 but it was limited to Solgi and Jeungpyun etc. This result shows that the experiment for Korean rice cake was not various. 3. The preceded studies for Korean rice cake were investigated to see texture, sensory, quality characteristic and effect of substitutes added to original ingredients.

This study examined the optimal ingredient mixing ratio for the preparation of steamed cake containing mugwort (Artemisia princeps var. orientalis) powder. After preliminary studies, the following ingredient ranges were determined; 110~129% sugar, 3~8% mugwort powder, 10~25% oil. Among the different mixture designs, the D-optimal design was chosen for analysis. The results of F-test, specific gravity, viscosity, volume and color values (L, a, b), hardness decided a linear model, while the sensory characteristics (color, taste, texture and overall acceptance) decided a quadratic model. The fitness analysis results showed that in all characteristic, the probabilities were significant within 0.05%; thus, the models were accepted as appropriate. The response surface and trace plot results showed that increasing amounts of mugwort powder decreased the brightness, and increased redness and yellowness. As the level of added oil increased, the softness of the cake increased. Cake samples received low sensory evaluation scores when sugar, mugwort powder, and oil were added above their optimal levels. The optimum formulations by the numerical and graphical methods, were similar, and with the numerical method presented as: sugar, mugwort powder, and oil at 120.7%, 5.1%, and 16.2%, respectively(flour weight basis). The above results demonstrate the feasibility of adding mugwort powder to sponge cake, and therefore, the commercialization of mugwort powder cake marketed as a functional food is deemed possible.

Gum was added to Jeungpyun (steamed Korean rice cake) to extend the shelf life and prevent retrogradation. The hardness of Jeungpyun was analyzed and the type of retrogradation was calculated by the Avrami equation. Guar gum, xanthan gum and pullulan were added to the steamed Korean rice cake at contents of 0.05%, 0.1% and 0.5% (w/w). The moisture contents of the steamed Korean rice cake stored at $4^{\circ}C$ remained unchanged over the three days. When the concentration of added gums was less than 0.1 %, the hardness was lower than that of the non-added gum. At a gum concentration of 0.5%, the hardness of Jeungpyun with added guar gum and xanthan gum was higher than that of pullulan and non-added Jeungpyun. The types of retrogradation varied according to the amount and the kind of the added gums. The type of retrogradation of pullulan-added rice cake was similar to that of xanthan-added rice cake. The Avrami exponent of pullulan-added and xanthan-added Jeungpyun was 1.4${\sim}$1.49 and 1.25${\sim}$1.43, respectively. As the concentrations of pullulan were increased from 0.05% to 0.5%, the time constant (1/k) increased from 5.37 to 15.65. Pullulan and xanthan gum were confirmed to be more effective than guar gum for preventing the retrogradation of the steamed Korean rice cake known as Jeungpyun.

This study investigated the effects on the quality characteristics of the korean steamed rice cake, Seolgiddok of the addition of aloe powder at 0%, 1.5%, 3.0%, 4.5% and 6.0% and 4-days storage. The moisture content of the control 0% aloe, steamed rice cake was 47.76%, and steadily decreased with increasing powder addition to the lowest of 37.38% for the cake with 6.0% added. The moisture content was decreased with extending storage time in both the control and powder-added groups. The cohesiveness, springiness, adhesiveness, gumminess and chewiness of the cake tended to decrease with increasing powder content, while the hardness increased with both increasing powder content and extending storage time. The Hunter color value L in the chromaticity of the cake was significantly decreased with increasing powder addition. The a value of the control, 0% aloe steamed cake was -0.86, but became positive with red color with increasing powder content, The b value was significantly increased with increasing powder content. The powder addition inhibited the increase in bacteria number. The sensory characteristics of the cake. such as color, aloe flavor and taste, and bitterness were increased with increasing powder content, while the moist and soft feeling of the cake were more highly evaluated at lower powder content. The overall taste was judged to be best for the sample with 3% added powder. Accordingly, it was expected that a highly functional and healthy product with improved quality might be developed by the addition of aloe powder to the Korean steamed cake, Seolgiddok.

This study was performed to determine the optimum ratio of each ingredient in the steamed foam cake with barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) sproutling powder. The experiment was designed according to the D-optimal design of mixture design, which showed 14 experimental points including 4 replicates for three independent variables (sugar 112${\sim}$139%, barley sproutling powder 1${\sim}$8%, and oil 5${\sim}$25%). The compositional and functional properties of test were measured, and these values were applied to the mathematical models. A canonical form and trace plot showed the influence of each ingredient on the mixture final product. The results of F-test, volume, color values (L, a, b), textural properties (hardness, gumminess, chewiness) and sensory characteristics (softness) decided a linear model, while the sensory characteristics (color, smell, taste, overall acceptance) decided a quadratic model. The volume of steamed foam cake was increased by sugar addition, and a negative effect was exerted by barley sproutling powder and oil. L and a of color values increased but the b value decreased with increasing sugar and oil content, whereas barley sproutling powder tended to decrease all color values. The addition of barley sproutling powder also had a positive effect on the textural properties (hardness, gumminess, chewiness). Sensory characteristics (color, smell, softness, taste, overall acceptance) could suffer counter results with the excessive addition of sugar, barley sproutling powder, and oil. The optimum formulations by numerical and graphical methods were similar: sugar, barley sproutling powder, and oil were 130.4%, 4.0%, and 10.7% by numerical method, compared to 130.4%, 4.0%, and 10.7% by graphical method, respectively.

To obtain basic data for the utilization of saltwort (Salicornia herbacea L.) as a functional ingredient in steamed foam cake, the optimum component ratios for major raw ingredients (saltwort, salt, and wheat flour) as independent variables that affect the product quality were scientifically determined using RSM (response surface methodology) technique. A three-factor and five-level rotational central composite design was used for treatment arrangement. The complete design consisted of 16 experimental points. The three independent variables selected for the RSM experiment were amounts of saltwort (X$_1$, 5${\sim}$25 g), salt (X$_2$, 0${\sim}$10 g), and wheat flour (X$_3$, 470${\sim}$530 g). The optimum responses in specific gravity of the batter and volume, color, texture, and sensory evaluation result of the cake were obtained. The specific gravity and viscosity of the batter at p<0.01 was verified from the regression curve. The characteristic of the batter was influenced by all independent variables, but was extremely dependent on the amount of saltwort ordinary points of the surface responses from the batter formed the minimum points for specific gravities of the batter while viscosities of the batter appeared with the saddle points. Analysis of the response indicated that the amount of saltwort was the most influential factor over the physical properties of the cake, among the dependent variables. Ordinary points of the surface responses from the cake formed the maximum points for loaf volume, hardness gumminess, and chewiness, while Hunter colorimetric parameters appeared with the saddle points. The result indicated that level of the saltwort deviating more or less from the optimal amount decreased the volume and increased the specific gravity with less tender product. Ordinary points of the surface responses of the sensory evaluation scores from the cake formed the maximum points for appearance, flavor, softness, and overall acceptability, while color values appeared with the saddle points. The result also indicated that the level of the saltwort deviating more or less from the optimal amount reduced the preference for the product. Integration of the optimum responses common to all dependent variables that overlapped all the contour maps finally indicated that the combination of 8.3${\sim}$13.8 g saltwort, 2.5${\sim}$6.6 g salt, and 486.5${\sim}$511.5 g wheat flour under the selected preparation recipe optimized the physical and sensory properties in the teamed foam cakes. Practical preparation of the product with median amounts of the ingredients, i.e., 11.0 g saltwort, 4.6 g salt, and 499.0 g wheat flour resulted in similar qualities to the predicted responses. In conclusion, these study results indicated that preparation of steamed foam cake with added saltwort ingredient could potentially produce a more nutritious product with less salt. Further research is required to acquire the optimum levels for sub-ingredients to improve the product quality.

In order to find out the possible effects of steamed rice cake with varying addition of macadamia powder on quality improvement, this study applied 3%, 6%, 9% and 12% addition of macadamia powder. As a result, it found that the more addition of macadamia powder led to significantly higher crude oil content. Further it revealed that whit more addition of macadamia powder, it tended to show a lower L value. Also with more addition of macadamia powder a higher b value was shown. According to SEM, it was found that the 0% group showed an inconsistent grain size and porosity, local distribution of big lumps and rough surfaces, whereas more addition of macadamia powder tended to show a large mass formation and smoother cross-section. The 12% group showed a gradually decreasing hardness. According to the results of sensory characteristics, it was found that the 12% group showed the highest level in flavor, nutty, softness, after taste and overall quality. Conclusively, it is found that the preparation of steamed rice cake using macadamia powder is helpful to keep flavor and softness; moreover, it contributes to the overall quality of rice cake.
