Wheat was brought to solve food scarcity with aid from the United States caused by the Korean War. The Korean government launched a campaign to encourage mixed rice and wheat meals due to shortage of rice production in the 1960s, Wheat consumption began in earnest. However, it is difficult to rebuild the domestic wheat production base devastated by the Korean War with the technology at the time. Thus, wheat was mainly consumed from imported in the past. Since then, as wheat consumption has increased due to westernization and diversification of dietary life, wheat became the second staple grain in Korea. In this situation, the government enacted the Wheat Industry Promotion Act to create a basis for sustainable production and consumption of wheat in Korea. This study sought to improve the self-sufficiency of domestic wheat by examining the possibility of using "Ariheuk", a variety of new Korean wheat, as a rice supplement in the same context as the govemment's policy. Wheat has been used as a raw material for the processed food, such as noodles and bread. However, we approached it by using whole wheat as a nutritional grain. Participants were recruited from the agri-food consumer panel conducted by Rural Development Administration. We set a final sample of 525 consumer panels based on the age of census household heads. The experiment was conducted in such a way that participants cooked and ate 100% rice meal and rice containing 20% whole wheat meal. Participants completed the sensory evaluation questionnaire with online. For this experiment, all participants were given same whole wheat product. The sensory evaluation questionnaire consisted of color, glossiness, stickiness, aroma, chewing, sweetness, nuttiness, chewiness, softness, bursting, flavor, texture and swallowability. The sensory evaluation results were analyzed by giving -3 points to +3 points. The former points were given to the response that 100% rice meal is very superior to the response that rice containing 20% whole wheat meal. The latter points were given vice versa. Zero point was given to the response that they are similar each other. As a result, rice with 20% whole wheat meal was better than 100% rice meal in terms of color, aroma, chewiness, bursting and flavor. In case of sweetness and glossiness, there didn't exist significantly different. On the other hands, 100% rice meal was better in terms of softness and swallowability. As a result of ANOVA by age groups, from 30s or younger to 60s or more, there was significant difference among the groups in terms of color, chewiness and bursting. As a result of post-hoc analysis with Duncan's multiple range test (p < 0.05), 50s were evaluated to be significantly superior in color, chewiness and bursting compared to other age groups. In conclusion, it is appropriate to use whole wheat as a supplement to rice in order to improve the self-sufficiency of domestic wheat. As a strategy to promote domestic wheat consumption, in case of Ariheuk, it is necessary to provide an experience through whole wheat tasting and to establish a marketing strategy segmented by age groups.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the physicochemical and pasting properties of long-term stored domestic and imported rice supplied for food processing from government-controlled public rice stocks. Goamibyeo, which was bred for processing and harvested in 2011, was selected as the control rice for comparison. Rice was dry-milled, and the amylose contents of stored rice were 12~13%. Stored rice kernels were significantly harder than those of control, whereas damaged starch content and water absorption of flour were not significantly different from those of control. Overall, long-term stored domestic and imported rice showed high peak viscosities along with high viscosities of both hot and cold pastes. Both imported and domestic rice demonstrated insufficient properties for making 100% flat rice noodles or bread. They showed the greatest shrinkage during cooling after baking. Although their levels of cooking loss were less than that of control, stored rice showed a less elastic and softer cooked noodle texture compared to control flour.

Various sterilization temperatures $(110^{\circ}C,\;120^{\circ}C,\;130^{\circ}C)$ and air volumes (air, 31ml, half-vacuum; 13ml, vacuum; -0.7ml) within the retort pouch were tested for the development of the simple retort rice processing techniques in which the pouch were filled with rice and water, and then sterilized. Water content of retort rice was found to be 59.0-63.3% resulting from mixing the rice and water in the ratio of 1:1.1. The most uniform water content was obtained from retort rice sterilized at $130^{\circ}C$ and packaged under vacuum. The larger water content differences were observed with the increase in internal air volumes within the retort pouch. Spreading degree of retort rice was geater than that of general cooked rice, was lower in upper layer than in low layer, and became lower with the larger air volume and higher sterilization temperature. a degree of rice became higher with the Increase of sterilization temperature but that was not affected by the internal air volume of the pouch. The higher sterilization temperature and the lower the air volume, the higher the whiteness was. The highest whiteness was obtained by packaging under vacuum and sterilizing at $130^{\circ}C$. Intact degree was much higer in packaging under air than vacuum. In sensory evaluation the retort rice of vacuum pack was good in color and spreading degree but not in appearance because of blocking and deforming, but that of air pack was good in texture on the contrary. The best quality was obtained by packaging under half-vacuum and sterilizing at $130^{\circ}C$.

Rice quality is considered to have two general meanings; 1) milling, cooking, and processing quality, which refer to suitability of the grain for a particular end-use; and 2) physical quality, which means cleanliness, soundness, and freedom from foreign materials. Grain type is associated with specific milling, cooking, and processing characteristics. Thus, this experiment was conducted to classify the grain type categories and marketing grades for Korean leading rice varieties. Length: width ratio of brown rice kernel ranged from 1.57 to 2.25 and most of varieties belonged to short grain except Tongil type rice varieties. Mean of length: width ratio of brown rice kernel was 1.77 and coefficient of variance was 4.79％ in short grain type varieties. Grain shape could be further classified into 5 types by length:width ratio of brown rice kernel; 1 type(less than 1.75), 2 type(1.76∼1.80), 3 type(1.81∼1.90), 4 type(1.91∼2.00), and 5 type (greater than 2.00). For 1 and 2 type of varieties, woven wire sieve having 1.7mm openings showed better whole-kernel yields for special marketing grade, and sieve having 2.0mm openings for 3 and 4 type of varieties. Grain type which classified into 5 categories was not associated with physicochemical and cooking characteristics of rice grain, but sensory evaluation of cooked rice showed better score for 1 type varieties in terms of appearance, gloss, flavor, texture, stickiness, and taste.

This study was carried out to compare the rice quality between domestic brand rice and imported Chinese rice. In the appearance of grain, head rice rates were $96.1\%$ in domestic brand rice (Ilpumbyeo), $94.1\%$ in Jingguan (Chinese brand rice) and $86.5\%$ in Xiaozhandao(Chinese brand rice). In case of Chinese parboiled rice, the head rice rate was $0\%$ because the cracked and broken rice occupied about $95.5\%$. The low protein contents in Ilpumbyeo and Xiaozhandao as 6.5 and $6.7\%$ show relatively high palatability as 81.9 and 71.4. However, high protein contents in Jingguan and Chinese parboiled rice as 7.5, $7.4\%$ show low palatability as 64.3 and 55.6. In viscosity characteristics, peak viscosity, break down and final viscosity were higher in Ilpumbyeo and Xiaozhandao, midium in Jingguan and lowest in Chinese parboiled rice. And the set back value, which was negatively related with amylose content, was lowest in Ilpumbyeo and highest in Chinese parboiled, suggesting slow deterioration in Ilpumbyeo and rapid deterioration in Chinese parboiled rice. Overall physical components of cooked rice measured by Texture Analyser were higher in Ilpumbyeo than those in Chinese parboiled rice.

The principal objective of this study was to assess the quality characteristics of Topokki with different amounts of curry powder[0%(CT0), 2%(CT2), 4%(CT4), 6%(CT6) and 8%(CT8)], based on the amount of rice flour. The L values of the uncooked and cooked Topokki decreased significantly with increases in the amount of added curry powder. The a and b values of cooked Topokki increased significantly with increases in the amount of added curry powder. The weight gains(%) of CT0(11.40%), CT2(11.67%) and CT4(10.93%) were significantly higher and the volume increases(%) of CT2(12.53%) and CT4(12.23%) were higher than those of the other samples. Textural properties such as hardness, cohesiveness, springiness and gumminess were also assessed. Our sensory evaluation test demonstrated that the appearance of CT2(4.24), the color of CT2(4.24) and CT4(4.26), the flavor of CT2(4.34) and the overall acceptability of CT2(4.24) and CT4(4.26) were superior to those of the others. CT4, CT6 and CT8 evidenced more profound antimicrobial activities than the others. In conclusion, the addition of $2{\sim}4%$ curry powder to the rice flour proved the most acceptable for the preparation of Topokki with curry powder.

This study was conducted to investigate the difference of antimicrobial activity between $\varepsilon$-polylysine/grapefruit seed extract mixture and $\varepsilon$-polylysine/glyceride mixture against food-borne pathogens. The minimum inhibitory concentration (MIC) of the $\varepsilon$-polylysine/grapefruit seed extract mixture was 100 times lower than that of the $\varepsilon$-polylysine/glyceride mixture. In case of the $\varepsilon$-polylysine/glyceride mixture the MIC of Bacillus cereus (0.1 $\mu$L/mL) and Pseudomonas aeruginosa (0.1 $\mu$L/mL) were lower than that of Escherishia coli (15 $\mu$L/mL). When rices were cooked with the $\varepsilon$-polylysine/glyceride mixture the number of total microbial cell was decreased during storage at 2$0^{\circ}C$ as concentration of the $\varepsilon$-polylysine/glyceride mixture increased. The antimicrobial activity was the highest against Escherishia coli as the concentration of the $\varepsilon$-polylysine/glyceride mixture increased. Sensory terms such as taste, flavor and texture were not significantly different in cooked rices prepared with 0.5% $\varepsilon$-polylysine/glyceride mixture, but there was significantly different in cooked rices prepared with 1% (p＜0.05) in the overall acceptability, indicating that the cooked rice with 0.5% $\varepsilon$-polylysine/glyceride mixture was recommended.

This study was performed to determine the optimal composition of a makgeolli administered nuruk, water and Asparagus cochinchinensis. The experiment was designed base on BBD (box-behnken design), and an evaluation was carried out by means of RSM (response surface methodology), which included 15 experimental points with 3 replicates for the three independent variables nuruk, water and Asparagus cochinchinensis. The nuruk levels were tested in a range of 10~30 g, the water levels in a range 120~180% and Asparagus cochinchinensis was tested within a range of 2~6% by the weight of cooked-rice. Using the F-test, brix and appearance were expressed as a linear model, whereas the pH, acidity, DPPH radical scavenging, L-value, savory taste, taste, fresh aroma, after swallow and overall acceptability were expressed as a quadratic model. Increased amount of Asparagus cochinchinensis led to the reduction of the sensory scores for appearance, flavor, taste, texture and overall quality. The optimum formulation by numerical and graphical method were similar: nuruk 24.50 g, water 174.95% and Asparagus cochinchinensis 2.40%.

Germination is a well-known economical technique that has been utilized to enhance the nutritional value of brown rice. Owing to its higher nutritive quality, germinated brown rice has received significant attention in the past decade. In this study, the physicochemical and cooking properties of specialty brown rice (SBR) were analyzed before and after germination. Germination enhanced cooking properties such as water absorption, expanded volume, and increased solid solubility of cooked SBR. The SBR texture measured using tensipresser, was significantly improved by germination. The hardness of cooked SBR was decreased by germination, but stickiness was increased. Pasting analysis of the SBR flours revealed a decrease in all viscosity values (peak viscosity, breakdown, setback, and final viscosity) after germination. However, the gelatinization temperature remains unchanged upon germination. Additionally, amylose content and amylopectin chain length distribution of SBR starch were slightly changed by germination. These results indicate that germination leads to a substantial improvement in the cooking properties and texture of SBR.

The amylose content of starch is a major factor in the texture of cooked cereal grains. Therefore, down-regulation of amylose synthesis is one of the alternative method to improve eating quality of rice. We developed transgenic rice plants designed to suppress granule-bound starch synthase I(GBSSI) gene using RNA interference(RNAi) technology. Transgenic plants with RNAi vector containing the 3'-UTR region of GBSSI showed a lower amylose content in rice endosperm than that of wild-type. The range of amylose content was 5.9~9.0% in the transgenic plants, whereas that of wild-type was 17.7~18.0%. Transgenic rices showed the decrease of short chain and the increase of long chain by analyzing chain length distribution of amylopectin in the endosperm. In the SEM micrographs, we found that compound starch granules in whole grains of the wild-type rice were readily split during fracturing, while the starch granules in RNAi-transgenic lines showed small voluminous, non-angular rounded bodies.
