An investigation evaluating the preparation and physicochemical properties of Oddi Jelly(jelly using mulberry fruit powder) with various increments of sericultural products(0.5, 1, 1.5 and 2%) derived from mulberry fruit powder was performed. The effects of the different increments of mulberry fruit powder added to Oddi Jelly were assessed using physicochemical, sensory and texture analysis properties. The moisture and crude protein content of the Oddi Jelly were significantly higher than the control(p<0.05). Conversely, the crude fat content of the Oddi Jelly were significantly lower than the control(p<0.05). A positive trend was observed for both mineral content and dark color with increased mulberry fruit powder. Similarly, a positive relationship was observed for texture analysis, hardness, gumminess and chewiness of the Oddi Jelly with increasing levels of mulberry fruit powder(p<0.05). Color, taste, texture and overall preference of Oddi Jelly were significantly highest in the Oddi Jelly containing 2% mulberry fruit powder(p<0.05). Results suggest that the optimal amount of mulberry fruit powder added in the manufacturing of Oddi Jelly was 2% of the total weight.

The purpose of this study was to help promote the consumption of rice by substituting rice powder for wheat flour in bread preparation and examining the effect of rice powder particle size in baked rice bread samples. Several experiments were carried to analyze and compare the quality characteristics of prepared samples of wheat flour and rice powder breads. The loaf volume index of the wheat flour bread was 6.34, and the indices of the rice powder bread samples, which were made from powder milled through 20, 35, and 45 mesh (S1, S2 and S3), were 5.37, 5.56, and 5.85, respectively. These data indicated that the loaf volume index of the rice powder bread was lower than that of the wheat flour bread, but the volume of the rice powder bread increased as the particle size of the rice powder became finer. According to texture analysis results using a rheometer, the hardness value of the wheat flour bread was $1.34{\times}10^3\;g/cm^2$, and values of S1, S2, and S3 were $1.74{\times}10^3\;g/cm^2$, $1.57{\times}10^3\;g/cm^2$, and $1.47{\times}10^3\;g/cm^2$, respectively. Therefore, S3, which was made from the finest powder among the rice powder samples, showed the lowest level of hardness. No significant differences were observed for springiness, cohesiveness, and gumminess among the bread samples. However, the wheat flour and rice powder breads had significant differences for bread crumb color. The L-value of S3(76.20) was similar to that of the wheat flour bread(77.22). but the L-values of S1(70.30) and S2(71.21) were lower than that of the wheat flour bread. In terms of redness and yellowness, the values of the rice powder breads were significantly different from those of the wheat flour bread. In terms of overall preference, the sensory evaluation results indicated that S3 was significantly the more preferred and the wheat flour bread was the least preferred among the bread samples. This study also investigated texture changes and mold occurrence in bread samples stored at $25^{\circ}C$ for 5 days. From the 3rd day of storage, bread texture became harder in all samples however, S3 showed the least level of change among the rice powder breads. The occurrence of mold began to increase abruptly from the 4th day of storage, and S2 and S3 showed mold numbers that were 2-fold greater than those of S1 and the wheat flour bread.

This study addresses the development of a soy hamburger patty containing enzyme-treated textured soy protein (TSP) as a meat analogue. In order to reduce the beany flavor and enhance the texture, TSP was treated with 0.3% Flavourzyme for 5, 10, 20, or 30 min. The degree of hydrolysis and the water holding capacity of the TSP increased with increasing hydrolysis time. The oil binding capacity of the TSP also increased with increasing hydrolysis time, approaching the maximal value, 175.82%, at 30 min, whereas that of pork scored with the lowest value of 128.67%. The volume of pork was reduced to 81.5% as the result of heat treatment, whereas that of the TSP increased to 140.57%. The values of 'L', 'b', and '${\Delta}E$' differed significantly (p<0.001) with heat treatment, but the 'a' values did not differ significantly. With regard to texture, the hardness values were highest in the pork hamburger patty (PHP), and were lowest in the soy hamburger patty (SHP) containing untreated TSP. The hardness of the SHP containing TSP treated for 20 min did not differ significantly from that of the PHP. The cohesiveness and gumminess of the SHP treated for 20 min were highest, whereas those treated for 10 min were the lowest. The gumminess of the SHP treated for 20 min did not differ significantly from that of pork. The chewiness of the PHP was the highest, whereas that of the SHP treated for 5 min was the lowest. In our sensory evaluation, PHP evidenced the highest scores, followed by the SHP treated for 30 min, as color, texture, beany flavor, and overall quality all improved as the consequence of increasing enzyme treatment duration. In conclusion, it is believed that SHP has great potential as a substitute for meat, in that the flavor, texture, and beany flavor of SHP did not differ significantly from those of PHP.

The effects of emulsifiers as additives on the physical properties of rice cookies were investigated in this study. The amounts of emulsifiers added were 3, 6, and 9% based on 100 g of rice flour. Peak viscosity of rice flour added with diacetyl tartaric ester of monoglyceride (DATEM) showed smaller decreases compared to addition of sodium stearoyl lactylate (SSL) or sucrose ester (SE). Hardness of dough as measured by TA increased upon addition of SSL, SE, and DATEM, whereas hardness of cookies increased upon addition of SSL and SE. In contrast, addition of DATEM did not increase hardness of cookies. Density of dough and cookies increased upon addition of SSL and SE, whereas density decreased upon addition of DATEM and spreadability showed the lowest values. From these results, it was confirmed that use of emulsifiers in cookies can control cookie texture. Compared to SSL and SE, DATEM increases hardness of dough and decreases densities of dough and cookies, making it effective in softening the texture of rice cookies.

This study investigated the physicochemical and sensory characteristics of yanggaeng prepared with various amounts of dropwort powder. According to the results, the $^{\circ}Brix$ value, pH, and moisture contents of yanggaeng decreased significantly with the addition of dropwort powder. The results of color measurement analysis reveal tha t L value, a value, and b value of the groups with dropwort powder werelower than those of the control group. Texture measurement scores in terms of hardness, cohesiveness, chewiness, and brittleness for yanggaeng showed that 1~4% of substituted sample groups were higher than those of the control group. DPPH radical scavenging activity of the control group was 24.20%, whereas groups with the added dropwort powder ranged from 33.56~58.80%. As dropwort powder increased, antioxidative activity also increased. Sensory evaluation scores in terms of color, odor, taste, texture, and overall preference of groups with 1% and 2% of dropwort powder did not show any significant differences when compared to the control group. Based on the above results, this study suggests that the addition of 2% dropwort powder may be the best substitution ratio for yanggaeng.

Waxy maize starches are inherently stable in soluble status and can be chemically modified to improve stability along with heat, acid and shear resistance. This study was carried out to investigate the effect of theological and sensory characteristics of the yellow layer cake made by adding different levels of waxy maize starch as a fat substitute for shortening. By increasing the substitution level of waxy maize starch for shortening, the specific gravity of cake batter increased and the viscosity decreased. The microstructures of cake crumb observed by the scanning electron microscope were not different significantly, and the size of air cells and fat particles also were not substantially decreased by increasing fat substitution level. The texture profile analysis using texture analyzer decreased by increasing the different substituting levels of waxy maize starch. Among various sensory properties, the color value of layer cake increased by increasing the level of waxy maize starch. However, the appearance, flavor, taste, texture and overall preference decreased.

A survey aiming to find out the chemical and textural properties of commercial fermented soy bean curd called sufu was conducted. Sixteen brands of plain sufu produced in the Northern or the Southern part of China were collected and examined for their crude protein, crude fat, texture profiles, free amino acids, and free fatty acid contents. Twenty-one free amino acids were extracted and derivatized using a commercial kit followed by separation and analyzed by the gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). Similarly, ten free fatty acids were extracted using alumina, eluted, separated and analyzed. The content ranges of crude fat and protein were 22~36% and 31~38%, respectively. In texture profile analysis, ranges of the texture parameters were 131~493 g (hardness), 0.4~0.5 (cohesiveness), -137 to -50 gs (adhesiveness), 0.6~1 (springiness), 47~220 g (gumminess) and 32~177 g (chewiness). Twenty-one different free amino acids, especially alanine, glycine, $\alpha$-aminobutyric acid, valine, leucine, allo-isoleucine, aspartic acid, glutamic acid and lysine in large amount, as well as ten fatty acids in total, notably linoleic acid (9-octadecanoic acid), oleic acid (9,12-octadecadienoic acid), linolenic acid (9,12,15-octadecadienoic acid), hexadecanoic acid and octadecanoic acid were found. This information provides important quality reference ranges for product developers and manufacturers to optimize and produce the plain sufu.
