The purpose of this study is to investigate the quality characteristics of sugar-snap cookies prepared with Curcuma Longa L. powder(0, 3, 6, 9, 12, 15%) substituted for flour. The pH of the dough of sugar-snap cookies ranged from 6.58 to 7.32, and their moisture contents ranged from 9.09% to 10.77%. The width and spread factor of sugar-snap cookies decreased significantly with increase in Curcuma Longa L powder content(p<0.05); Lightness decreased significantly as the Curcuma Longa L. powder content increased while redness and yellowness increased significantly(p<0.05). Hardness increased with more powder added, and sensory evaluation indicated that the samples with 6% of the powder received higher scores in terms of taste, color, flavor, texture and overall tastes. As a result, sugar-snap cookies with 6% of Curcuma Longa L. powder were valued as best.

Shinuncho(Angelica keiskei koidz)sulgi is a kind of steamed rice cake by an earthenware steamer. I made Shinuncho-sulgi samples with different amounts of Angelica keiskei koidz - powder and different types of sugars (sugar or honey). The more Angelica keiskei koidz powder it has the bitter it tastes but the lower sweetness, moistness and chewiness it has. Samples with honey have higher sweetness, moistness and chewiness but lower bitterness and after-swallowing than ones with sugar. Color is Shinsuncho-sulgi with $3\%$ of Angelica keiskei koidz - powder and honey has been judged to have the best quality. Flavor and Overall-acceptability are Shinsuncho-sulgi with $2\%$ of Amge;oca keiskei koidz - powder and honey has been judged to have the best quality. The more Angelica keiskei koidz powder it has the higher hardness but the significantly cohesiveness, springiness, gumminess, and chewiness it has. Samples with honey have higher hardness, springiness, cohesiveness, gumminess and chewiness, but lower adhesiveness, than ones with sugar. The moisture content of Shinsuncho-sulgi is $35.89\~37.08\%$. Samples with honey have higher b-value but lower L-value and a-value than ones with sugar.

The purpose of this study was to analyze the sensory and mechanical characteristics, moisture content and color values of Hongwhasulgi by varying the quantity of Safflower seed powder and the types of sugar used. As a result of the quantitative analysis, it was found that as more Safflower seed powder was added to the non-glutinous rice powder, the tastiness, sweetness and coarseness of the resultant rice cake tasted almost the same as that of the raw seeds. When the quantity of the seed powder was the same, Hongwhasulgi with sugar added was moister than that with oligosaccharide, and as more seed powder was added, the rice cake became less chewy. The preference of flavor did not differ significantly among the samples. As a result of analyzing the texture, Hongwhasulgi with more Safflower seed power added and oligosaccharide used exhibited greater hardness, adhesiveness, gumminess and chewiness but lower cohesiveness, whereas springiness did not differ significantly among the samples. The moisture content of Hongwhasulgi ranged from $32.35{\sim}39.87%$. Hongwhasulgi with the sugar added was significantly moister than that with oligosaccharide added(p<0.05). Based on the above results, it is considered that the most desirable mix ratio for Hongwhasulgi is non-glutinous rice powder 190 g(95%), Safflower seed power 10 g(5%), sugar 20 g, salt 2 g, and water 35 mL.

The objective of this study was to investigate by a sensory evaluation and mechanical examination the sensory and quality characteristics of wageobyune containing different ratios of ingredients such as lettuce (50%, 60% and 70%), sugar and water. The results of the sensory evaluation showed that wageobyung containing 50% lettuce had higher scores in the overall acceptability, color, flavor and chewiness preference. In the textural analysis of wageobyung, the springiness, cohesiveness and hardness were the highest and the chewiness, gumminess and adhesiveness were the highest in the 70% added samples. Increasing the lettuce content decreased the hunter's color L-value of wageobyung. The redness and yellowness of wageobyung were increased as more lettuce was added. The moisture content of wageobyung was higher in the samples containing 70% lettuce than those containing 50%.

Peeled chestnuts were stored at different temperatures($-10^{\circ}C$ and $-20^{\circ}C$) and for different times(0, 10, and 20 min at $90^{\circ}C$) for blanching over a 6 month period. Analyses were conducted for moisture content, total sugar content, browning index, polyphenol compounds, PPO activity, and SEM. Moisture content and PPO activity were increased by storage time. The increments for the samples stored at $-20^{\circ}C$ were lower that for the samples stored at $-10^{\circ}C$. The Browning index was increased by storage time, and increments for the samples stored at $-20^{\circ}C$ were lower that for the samples stored at $-10^{\circ}C$. Scanning electronic microscopy(SEM) studies were performed on peeled chestnuts. Results showed that the wrinkle structure of the cell wall was enhanced by storage time, and the level of enhancement was higher at $-10^{\circ}C$ than at $-20^{\circ}C$.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the properties of Seolgiddeok by mixed ratio of jujube powder and sugar. The proximate composition, water holding capacity, Hunter's color values, texture, and sensory evaluations were examined in this study. The results are as follows. Among the proximate composition of the Seolgiddeok that was made of different ratio of Jujube powder and sugar, moisture content of the control group was 43.93%. As the amount ratio of Jujube powder increased, moisture content slightly increased, and content of crude protein and crude ash was higher. The water holding capacity of Seolgiddeok by mixed ratio of jujube powder and sugar was lower as the amount ratio of Jujube powder increased. The L value, which is Hunter's color values of Seolgiddeok by mixed ratio of jujube powder and sugar, was the highest in the control group. The a and b value was the lowest in the control group and became high as the amount ratio of the jujube powder increased. As amount ratio of jujube powder increased, the hardness, the springiness, the cohesiveness, the gumminess, and the chewiness, of Seolgiddeok became high, but adhesiveness became low. In a sensory evaluation of Seolgiddeok by mixed ratio of jujube powder and sugar, the preference of texture, mouth-feel, and appearance was the highest in the control group. The preference of color, flavor and overall preference were the highest in Seolgiddeok by mixed ratio of jujube powder of 75.0g and sugar 57.6g.

Oriental melon has been increased in production amount, but its processed food was not made in spite of the fact that shelf-life of the fresh fruit is short. This study was carried out to develop a dried product with no use sulfur treatment. Fresh melons were peeled, cut into 6 pieces, and soaked to the following pretreatments soaking in sugar syrup(SS), sodium chloride(SC), ascorbic acid(AA) and sodium polyphosphate(SP). After preatreatments the melon pieces were dried by hot air drying at 5$0^{\circ}C$ for 9 and 12 hours, and the dried melons were air blown at $25^{\circ}C$ for 1 day. The dried samples were evaluated for moisture content, texture, rotor, and sensory quality. The moisture content of dried melons soaked in SS and SC were lower than those that were soaked in AA and SP after hot air drying. The melons dried for 12 hours were high in hardness, gumminess, chewness and adhesiveness and excellent in sensory evaluation compared to 9 hours. The "L" value of SS was higher and the "a" value was lower in Hunter color. And SS treatment inhibited browning of the dried melon and improved sensory characteristics in color, flavor, texture and taste. Sucrose concentration had no significant effect on color, hardness and sensory score in banal product. The combination of SS with SP represented a highly effective antibrowning treatment for the dried melon and the product was kept in good color for 3 months at room temperature.at room temperature.

This study was carried out to investigate the possibility of improving the texture and the flavor of Dasik made of the Omija extract, various sugars and rice powder. Sensory quality and mechanical characteristics of Dasik were compared. The moisture content of the Croup of tile Dasik added with Omija extract was higher than that with non-Omija extract The Omija Dasik containing molasses showed the highest value (23.5%) in moisture content. In sensory quality, Omija Dasik containing honey and symp showed the highest score in overall acceptability (6.2 and 6.0, respectively). The Rice Dasik containing syrup showed the highest values in lightness (L) and yellowness (b) in color. The Omija Dasik containing syrup showed the highest values in redness (a) in color. The Dasik added with honey and syrup were lower in hardness, but higher in cohesiveness, springiness, gumminess and brittleness of textural characteristics. When sensory quality and mechanical characteristics of the Dasik were compared with, the gumminess and brittleness in mechanical characteristics were positively correlated with the appearance and the taste acceptability in sensory quality (p<.01, p<.05). The springiness was negatively correlated with the tooth packing in sensory quality (p<.001). The Omija Dasik was more desirable in flavor, taste and overall acceptability, especially those added with honey and syrup. From the above results, the honey might be replaced by the less expensive syrup, when making the Omija Dasik.

The main purposes of this study were to identify the factors affecting the supercooling property and to improve the possibility of supercooling storage of fruits and vegetables. Freezing point and nucleation temperature, moisture content, hardness, sugar content, and pH of nineteen fruits and vegetables were measured and Pearson correlation analysis was performed. Freezing point showed a statistically significant correlation with moisture content and sugar content (p<0.01), while ice nucleation temperature showed a correlation (p<0.05) only for sugar content. In particular, the water content and sugar content did not show any correlation with the freezing supercooling difference (FSD). From the correlation analysis between FSD, aerobic bacteria, lactic acid bacteria, yeast, and mold, FSD showed a correlation (p<0.01) with aerobic bacteria. The experiments of the saline solutions inoculated with aerobic bacteria at different concentrations showed FSDs of about 2 for saline inoculated with 9.4 log CFU/mL and about 6 for saline inoculated lower than 5 log CFU/mL. Therefore, the aerobic bacteria concentration was determined to be a key factor affecting the supercooling storage of fruits and vegetables.

The effect of blueberries on the quality characteristics of strawberry jam substituted with 50% sugar, glucose syrup 10% was investigated. Strawberry jams with 5, 10 and 20% blueberries in place of strawberry were prepared and evaluated for moisture content, reducing sugar, total acidity, pH, color, total sugar (°Brix), pectin content, anthocyanin content, DPPH radical scavenging activity, texture analysis and sensory characteristics. As the amount of blueberries increased, total acidity, °Brix , reducing sugar content and anthocyanin content of jams increased, while pH decreased, moisture content has changed little. The DPPH radical scavenging activities of the 80% methanol extract from jams were 75.33%, 85.75%, 91.23% and 92.73% at a concentration of 8 mg/mL. Radical scavenging activity increased with the added concentration of blueberries. The lightness decreased with addition of blueberries, but the redness and yellowness increased. The sensory scores for jams increased with the increase of blueberry content; however, strawberry jams with 10% blueberries showed the best scores.
