To develop sweet persimmon bread, the proper ratio of the sweet persimmon powder substituted for strong flour was decided. When 5%,10%,15% and 20% of sweet persimmon powder was substituted as much amount of strong How, the ratio of moisture absorption and loaf volume decreased while its weight increased. The contents of vitamin A,9-carotene and vitamin C increased as the substitute ratio of sweet persimmon powder increased. In color values, as sweet persimmon powder was added more, L and b values decreased and a value increased in the crust while in the crumb bread L value decreased and a, b values increased. In the sensory evaluation, the bread added with 10% persimmon powder was preferred to control in flavor, texture and overall acceptability but not in appearance.

This research was conducted to enhance the value of low quality sweet persimmon by processing paste by combining low quality sweet persimmon and red-bean. In order to make sweet persimmon paste containing red-bean, the following procedures were executed : 1) the sweet persimmon was cleaned by water 2) the fruit stalk was removed 3) it was peeled, sliced, pitted and crushed 4) steamed and peeled red-bean paste was mixed 5) sweetening materials(starch syrup, sugar and dextrin) and salt were mixed 6) boiled and stored in refrigerator. Sweet persimmon was peeled, stem and seed was removed to make the paste. When mixing sweet persimmon paste and red-bean paste in the ratio of 6 : 4, sensory point of taste and overall desirability were higher than mixing in 5 : 5 and 4 : 6 but texture was lower. The sweet persimmon paste containing red-bean was softened and the sugar content was increased from 41.4$^{\circ}$Brix to 53.1$^{\circ}$Brix when 10% dextrin was added. The overall sensory evaluation was higher in sweet persimmon paste containing red-bean than commercial red-bean paste when 10% dextrin was added. The overall desirability also shown a significant difference between them. Even though findings were statistically insignificant, sweet persimmon powder with red-bean paste increased in texture and overall desirability compared with commercial red-beans paste. Sweet persimmon powder paste containing red-bean significantly decreased in flavor, color, taste and overall desirability compared with sweet persimmon paste containing red-bean. As a result of this study, the best combination for the quantity of sub-materials to make sweet persimmon paste was 600g of sweet persimmon, 400g of red-bean, starch syrup 120g, sugar 60g, salt 4g and dextrin 100g.

Pork patties were made containing hot air dried sweet persimmon powder (T1: 3%, T2: 6%) and freezer dried sweet persimmon powder (T3: 3%, T4: 6%). The control (C: no addition) and each treatment were stored for 40 days at $-18^{\circ}C$. The pH value decreased (p<0.05) in all products over 30 days of storage but slightly increased thereafter. There was no significant difference in WHC between the control and treatment groups. Cooking loss and meat color (CIE L, a, b) increased significantly (p<0.05) as storage increased. The cooking loss of meat patties containing sweet persimmon powder were significantly (p<0.05) higher than the control. The L value of the control increased significantly (p<0.05) relative to the treatment groups, however the a and b values were slightly higher in meat patties containing sweet persimmon powder. In all products, the reduction ratio of diameter increased (p<0.05) with storage time. With regard to microorganisms, all samples were in good condition, containing below 4.20 log CFU/g based on total plate counts through 40 days, though total plate counts and coliform plate counts of the control were lower (p<0.05) than T3 and T4. The VBN values of T4 was significantly higher than those of other products at 15, 30, and 40 days of storage. The TBARS values of meat patties containing sweet persimmon powder were significantly (p<0.05) higher than those of the conlIol. Sensory panels determined that meat patties containing sweet persimmon powder had a higher (p>0.05) preference score for overall acceptability.

We investigated the physical characteristics and changes in the functional components of red pepper paste, or gochujang, during fermentation at $20^{\circ}C$ for 90 days with different amounts of sweet persimmon powder. The viscosity of the paste decreased a little with increasing fermentation time. There was no significant difference (p<0.05) in all the treatments during fermentation. The L value, a value, and b value showed a tendency to gradually decrease with increasing fermentation time. And the samples with sweet persimmon powder showed a lower values compared to the control during fermentation. The phenolic compound content of the paste with sweet persimmon powder ranged from 13.72 mg% to 16.13 mg% at an early stage of fermentation, showing a significantly higher value (p<0.05) when increasing the amount of the powder. The content was in the range of 13.72~16.09 mg% on the 90th day in the final stage of fermentation, showing no significant difference (p<0.05) compared to those content at an initial stage of fermentation. The carotenoid content showed significantly higher values (p<0.05) when increasing the amount of sweet persimmon powder. In conclusion, sweet persimmon powder in the red pepper paste would gives a more functional effect which could be from bioactive components, such as phenolic compounds and carotenoids. But, it did not positively affect the color of the red pepper paste.

To develop food and organoleptic quality of gochujang 0, 3, 4, and 5% of sweet persimmon powder were added to Korean traditional red pepper paste during fermentation and microbiological and organoleptic characteristics were investigated. The total bacteria count of the gochujang tended to increase slowly until a level of $10^8$ CFU/g with increasing fermentation time. There was no significant difference (p <0.05) between the control and the treatment during fermentation. The number of yeast and mold was $10^4-10^5$ CFU/g during fermentation. Sensory evaluation after 30, 60, and 90 days of fermentation showed that addition of sweet persimmon powder to the gochujang did not affect its color, but the level of sweetness and umami, increased as additional level of sweet persimmon powder increased. In the overall acceptabilty, there was no significant difference (p <0.05) until 30 days of fermentation and the gochujang added with 4% sweet persimmon powder showed the highest organoleptic value. And it showed high score in sweetness, umami and overall acceptability at the end of fermentation. The results indicated that 4% additional level of sweet persimmon powder was the best making gochujang.

This study was conducted to investigate the chemical characteristics of Gochujang with different amounts of sweet persimmon powder added during fermentation at $20^{\circ}C$ for 90 days, in an effort to improve its taste and organoleptic quality. The moisture content was shown to be inclined to increase in all the treatments throughout the fermentation. There was no significant difference between the paste with sweet persimmon powder and the control. The pH showed a tendency to decrease with increased fermentation time in all the samples during fermentation, keeping a pH range of 4.64-4.67 after 60 days of fermentation. On the contrary, the titratable acidity increased during fermentation, showing a level of 0.147-0.156 mg% in the paste with sweet persimmon powder on the 90th day of fermentation. The sugar content was shown to be $33.67-39.67^{\circ}Brix$ in the early stage of fermentation, revealing a tendency to in crease with an increase in the amount of sweet persimmon powder added. The amino-type nitrogen content was at the 241.27-245.47 mg% level in the early stage of fermentation, and appeared to be significantly high (p<0.05) in the treatments with 3 and 4% sweet persimmon powder added, respectively, after 60 days of fermentation. The content was within the range of 357.47-371.53 mg% on the 90 th day of fermentation in the final stage, showing an increase trend throughout the fermentation. The alcohol content gradually increased with an increase in fermentation time, showing a range of 0.94-0.10% on the 90th day of the final stage of fermentation. Moreover, the content was highest (0.96-0.108%) on the 70th day of fermentation, demonstrating a trend to slightly decline in all the treatments thereafter.

Four different pork loaves were made with two levels, HP/FP-3% and HP/FP-6%, containing 3.0 and 6.0% HP(hot air dried sweet persimmon powder)/FP(freezer dried sweet persimmon powder), respectively. HP and FP(3% and 6%) were added into ground pork loin separately. A control without persimmon powder were used for comparison. Patties were cooked to 74℃ in electric oven, after cooling, the aerobic packaged meat loaves were stored at 5℃. The moisture and crude ash were higher in the FP-6%, and the crude protein and crude fat were no different among the samples. The pH in control sample was significantly higher(p<0.05) than those of treatment group, however no significant difference was found among the 4 treatments. The TBARS(thiobarbituric reactive substance) values of all samples showed a tendency of increasing value along the storage days. The TBARS and a* value increased(p<0.05) as the addition ratio of HP/FP increased, respectively. With regard to microorganisms, the number of total aerobic bacteria were lower than 3.11 log10 CFU/g. In sensory evaluation, meat loaves containing persimmon powder resulted in a high overall acceptability, although they were not significantly different in overall acceptability.

Steak sauces containing Korean persimmon were prepared and characteristics were evaluated. SOP (steak sauce containing soft persimmon), SOPP (steak sauce containing soft persimmon powder), and SWP (steak sauce containing sweet persimmon extract) with 5, 10, and 15% persimmon weight per sauce weight were prepared by a common formula. Antioxidant activity was determined by DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activity, and sweetness of the sauces increased with increasing persimmon content. DPPH radical scavenging activities for SWP with persimmon content of 5 and 15% were $75.28{\pm}0.03%$ and $81.04{\pm}0.01%$, respectively. ABTS radical scavenging activities of SWP with persimmon content of 5 and 15% were $55.64{\pm}0.06$ and $59.18{\pm}0.07%$, respectively. With addition of persimmon, yellowness (b) and redness (a) increased. In overall acceptance of sensory evaluation, 5% SWP showed a relatively high score.

Four different pork patties were made with two levels, HP/FP-3% and HP/FP-6%, containing 3.0 and 6.0% HP(hot air dried sweet persimmon powder)/FP(freeze-dried sweet persimmon powder), respectively. After manufacture, the meat patties were packaged with  polyvinyl wrap and stored at 4℃ for 8 days. CTL(control) and HP-3% meat patties were significantly(p<0.05) higher in moisture content than the other samples. FP-6% was found higher in protein content than the other treatments. FP-3% had a higher fat content than other meat patty samples. However, ash contents were not found significantly(p>0.05) different among the meat patty samples. The value of pH, L* and a* values were decreased as the cold storage time increased in all treatments(p<0.05). WHC(water holding capacity) of CTL and HP-6% and cooking loss of HP-3% were significantly(p<0.05) decreased with increased storage period. The diameter and thickness of all meat patties decreased with increasing the storage period. VBN(volatile basic nitrogen) values of all meat patties were increased(p<0.05) with increased storage period. TBARS (thiobarbituric acid reactive substance) of treatments were higher than that of CTL during whole storage time. The number of microorganisms(Total plate counts, Escherichia coli.) were maintained below 4.61 log10 CFU/cm2 during the whole storage period. In sensory evaluation, treatment groups had higher(p<0.05) scores in aroma, flavor, color and overall acceptability.
