This study was performed to optimize the preparation of frozen lotus roots. Prior to freezing, an optimal blanching condition at $100^{\circ}C$ for 5 min was established, based on the microbial growth, texture, total phenolic content (TPC), and sensory evaluation results. The blanched samples were then frozen under various freezing conditions ($-20^{\circ}C$ in a freezer for 2 hr, $-70^{\circ}C$ in a gas nitrogen convection chamber for 7 min, and $-196^{\circ}C$ in liquid nitrogen for 20 sec), and their qualities after thawing were determined. The scanning electron microscopic analysis indicated that the microstructure of the sample frozen at $-70^{\circ}C$ was similar to that of the control sample, compared with the other freezing conditions (-20 and $-196^{\circ}C$). The antioxidant activities of the frozen samples decreased compared to those of the control, but there was no significant (p<0.05) difference among the treatments. In terms of TPC, the samples frozen at -70 and $-196^{\circ}C$ had significantly (p<0.05) higher values than the sample frozen at $-20^{\circ}C$. In addition, the drip loss of the sample frozen at $-20^{\circ}C$ was higher than those of the other frozen samples. These results suggest that freezing at $-70^{\circ}C$ in a gas nitrogen convection chamber can be an optimal freezing method of producing high-quality frozen lotus roots.

Barley flakes were developed by extrusion cooking using broken kernels, by-products of the barley pearling process. Broken kernels from both non-waxy and waxy barley broken kernels were sufficiently gelatinized at the barrel temperature of over $100^{\circ}C$ and the moisture content of broken kernels of over 35%. Cutting and flaking roll separating properties of pellets prepared from non-waxy barley broken kernels were better than those of waxy barley broken kernels. Characteristics of pellets prepared by extrusion cooking in different mixing ratios of non-waxy and waxy barley broken kernels were investigated. As the mixing ratio of waxy barley broken kernels increased, RVA peak viscosity, apparent viscosity, and yield stress of prepared pellets decreased, while flow behavior index increased. As the mixing ratio of waxy barley broken kernels increased, compressive strength and bulk density of deep-fat fried flakes drastically decreased, and the size of air cells on cross-section increased, and thickness of cell-constituting bodies decreased. Sensory evaluation results showed that acceptability for texture and taste of flakes inclosed as the mixing ratio of waxy barley broken kernels increased, and optimum mixing level of waxy barley broken kernels appeared to be 30-40%.

The antioxidant activities and quality characteristics of Matcha (powdered green tea) spreads containing coconut milk were evaluated. Matcha spreads containing coconut milk was prepared with different amounts (0, 4, 8, 12, and 16 g) of Matcha, and indicated as S1, S2, S3, S4 and S5, respectively. The moisture content, viscosity, color, pH and sugar content were influenced by the concentration of Matcha. Total phenolic content and total flavonoid content of Matcha were found to be 226 mg GAE/g and 809.42 mg QE/g respectively. Also, 1,1-diphenyl-2-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) free radical scavenging activity and reducing power of Matcha was found to be $5.76{\mu}g/mL$ ($IC_{50}$) and 2.26 O.D., respectively. The antioxidant activities of the Matcha spreads containing coconut milk increased with increasing concentration of Matcha. Sensory evaluation indicated that S3 (8 g) was the most preferred in terms of color, taste, texture, and overall acceptance. Based on these results, it is suggested that S3 (8 g) was appropriate for achieving good quality coconut milk based spread containing Matcha.

This study was designed to evaluate the quality characteristics and antioxidant activities of noodles containing Allium senescens L. powder (0, 2, 4, 6, and 8%). With an increase in the consumption of Allium senescens L., there was a decrease in pH (p<0.001), water absorption ratio, volume expansion ratio, and turbidity (p<0.05). The colorvalue showed that the addition of Allium senescens L. decreased the L and b values. On the other hand, a value was increased (p<0.001). The mechanical texture of the noodles containing Allium senescens L. was decreased by the addition of Allium senescens L. considering its hardness and chewiness; however, it increased the adhesiveness, springiness, and cohesiveness (p<0.001). In the sensory evaluation, the noodles with 4% Allium senescens L. powder showed the best results (p<0.001). The total polyphenol content, total flavonoid content, DPPH radical scavenging, and reducing power were increased upon addition of Allium senescens L. powder (p<0.001).

This study investigated the development of health promoting high quality Mumalangi Kimchi. Angelica gigas Nakai leaves (AGL) were extracted with water and 70% ethanol, and the extracts tested for their electron donating ability (EDA), nitrite scavenging ability (NSA) and inhibitory effects on MDA and A549 cells. The EDA in 100-1,000 ppm water extracts from AGL ranged from 40 to 80%, but that of the ethanol extracts ranged from 37 to 81%. The NSA increased with increasing AGLconcentration in the extracts and decreasing pH. The NSA of the 1,000 ppm water and ethanol extracts from AGL were 29 and 35%, respectively, at pH 1.2. The inhibition ratios of the water and ethanol extracts from AGL on MDA cell growth were 35 and 32%, while those on A549 cell growth were 27 and 23%, respectively, at 1,000 ppm. After sun drying radishes for 15 hours, for the preparation of Mumalangi, the water contents were higher in summer radishes (39.5%) than fall radishes (32.6%) the color of summer radish also changed to brown. During storage of Mumalangi Kimchi, with the addition of 1-3% AGL, at 20?for 4 weeks, the yeast growth was inhibited. The shelf-life of Mumalangi Kimchi was extended by the addition of AGL. In the sensory evaluation of Mumalangi Kimchi, that with the addition 2% AGL had the highest scores for color, flavor, taste, texture, after taste and overall acceptability. Mumalangi Kimchi with the addition of 2% AGL had significant high scores for both taste and overall acceptability (p.0.05).

Eleven salt replacements$(SR-1{\sim}SR-11)$ composed of NaCl, KCl, $MgSO_4,\;CaSO_4$, lysine or glutamic acid were prepared and used for the preparation of low salt Kimchi instead of NaCl alone. Some chemical and microbiological characteristics of the low-salt Kimchi with 2.5% salt replacement were determined during the fermentation at $20^{\circ}C$. The pH decrease and acidity increase of low-salt Kimchi were slower than those of control Kimchi with NaCl alone. The total number of microorganism in SR-8 Kimchi added L-lysine was lower than that of control Kimchi until 5 days of fermentation. However, there was no difference in the numer of lactic bacteria between low-salt Kimchi and control Kimchi. The growth of yeasts was found to be slow in low-salt Kimchi with SR-8. The low-salt Kimchi with SR-3 showed the hardest texture among the prepared Kimchi. The overall acceptabilities of low-salt Kimchi prepared with SR-1, SR-3 composed of NaCl, KCl, $MgSO_4,\;CaSO_4$, and SR-10 added 0.2% glutamic acid to the elements were similar to the control Kimchi.

Effects of changes in the margarine content and the number of layers of the puff pastry on the color, hardness, and hardness change during storage of the final products were investigated. At equal content of pastry margarine, the lightness of the crust decreased slightly as the number of layers increased. Redness of the puff pastry with 70% margarine content and 81 layers was $16.8{\pm}2.3$ and yellowness of puff pastry with 70% margarine content and 256 layers was 26. No significant differences were observed in the crumb change of the samples. The puff pastry with 90% margarine content and 144 layers showed the lowest hardness of $839.6{\pm}75.6g$. Hardness of the products storage period increased significantly as the number of layers increased at equal pastry margarine content, whereas with same number of layers, decreased gradually as pastry margarine content increased. Results of the sensory evaluation reveal that the puff pastry with 90% margarine content and 144 layers was better than other samples. These results show the important of selecting the optimum number of layers during the manufacturing process to obtain the optimum condition for the mouthfeeling, flavor and overall acceptability of final products.

This study examined antioxidative activities and quality characteristics of noodle produced with the pine needle powder as 0.5, 1.0 and 2.0% (v/v to korean wheat powder). DPPH radical scavenging activity, reducing power, antioxidative activities, tyrosinase inhibitory activity of the solvent fraction extracts increased in a dose-dependent manner. Especially, butanol fraction showed high DPPH radical scavenging activity, reducing power, antioxidative activities and tyrosinase inhibitory activity. The weight, volume, water absorption and turbidity of cooked noodles containing pine needle powder increased as pine needle powders were higher. When the amount of pine needle powder increased, the Hunter L (lightness) and a (redness) value of cooked noodles decreased, but b (yellowness) value increased. The texture of noodle containing pine needle powder have decreased than control using only Korean wheat powder in hardness, cohesiveness, springiness, gumminess and chewiness. The results of sensory evaluation of cooked noodles containing pine needle powder indicated that the cooked noodles with 1.0% pine needle powder showed the highest value.
