This study was carried out for the purpose of inquiring into the effects on shelf-life, quality characteristics and antioxidative activities of Majakgwa with regard to the use turmeric powder at varying concentrations in the recipe. Chemical composition analysis showed that the contents of crude fat, crude protein and carbohydrates are high in turmeric powder. With an increase of the amount of turmeric powder used in Majakgwa recipes, dough pH was higher than that of the control group. Antioxidative activities were the highest in the groups with 3% and 9% turmeric powder content, and the value increased largely after 12 days of storage. Excellent antioxidative activities were observed in the 6% turmeric content group. For recipes with turmeric contents of more than 15%, oxidation was accelerated from early on in storage. The hardness, brittleness and bitterness increased significantly with the increase of the turmeric content. The intensity, chromaticity, crunch and intensity of the surface colors, all increased significantly with the increase of turmeric content. The general preference ratings for Majakgwa with added turmeric was highest for the 9% content recipe. Over all Majakgwa recipes with 6~9% turmeric powder content were found to ideal.

This study was carried out for the purpose of inquiring into the effects on shelf-life, quality characteristics, and antioxidant activities, of Majakgwa. This study also regards to the use fermented turmeric powder at varying concentrations in the recipe. The proximate composition of fermented turmeric powder, crude fat, carbohydrate, crude protein, and crude ash was decreased. Viewed division compared to the freeze-dried turmeric curcumin content was increased during fermentation due to the increase of mineral content. With an increased of the amount of fermented turmeric powder used in Majakgwa recipes, the pH of the dough was higher than that of the controlled group. The acid value of Maejakgwa was lowered down, and most effectively controled when adding Turmeric power by 3~6%, and the peroxide value shows high antioxidant ability from the initial storagr period when adding 6%. TBA value appears to have the highest antioxidant ability, when adding 6%, showing lower increasing rate than that of sample group added 0~3% Turmeric powder. When added 9% or more, however, it shows higher TBA value comparing with normal Maejakgwa, the reference group, which indicates on the contrary that the antioxidant ability is lowering. The bitter taste, exterior color, incense of Turmeric, solidity, and crispy level of Maejakgwa with fermented Turmeric powder have been increased significantly as per increase of fermented Turmeric powder, and the sample group added with 9% have shown the best result in the overall taste level. It is anticipated that adding 6~9% of fermented Turmeric powder can increase the storage capability to give the best taste level and effective antioxidant ability by minimizing the off-flavor and bitter taste, through the research as above, which would be the most appropriate blending ratio of Turmeric powder for producing Maejakgwa.

Recently, there has been a great deal of public interest in health foods, such as turmeric (Curcuma longa L). In this study, the baking features of turmeric powder were evaluated by making pan bread. To accomplish this, the effects of added turmeric powder on the results of mixograph analysis as well as, the pH and, fermentation rate were measured. In addition, the features of the bread were examined by testing the stickiness of the dough and the TPA of the product using a texture analyzer. Finally, the consumer's preferences were investigated by evaluation of the color difference, crumbScan and sensory evaluation. The results revealed that as the level of turmeric powder increased, the pH decreased. which resulted in the gas possessing capacity of the dough improving and the fermentation persistence of the dough increasing. In addition, the stickiness increased as the turmeric powder content increased. However, there were significant differences among breads produced using different amounts of turmeric powder. Evaluation of the taste revealed that the TP3 group had the higher score than control score and TP7 had the lowest score. In overall preference, TP7 was especially low and the preference decreased as the content of turmeric powder increased.

The objective of this study is to evaluate the quality characteristics of turmeric powder Dasik, a Korean traditional cookie, prepared by different additions of turmeric powder(0%, 1%, 2%, 3%, 4%). The result of the study is as follows. As the level of turmeric powder in the formulation increased, the moisture contents of the samples increased. As the content of the turmeric powder increased, the L-values of the turmeric powder Dasik significantly decreased, and the a- and b-values also significantly increased. Also, the hardness, gumminess, springiness, cohesiveness and chewiness of the turmeric powder Dasik increased, whereas its adhesiveness decreased as the amount of turmeric powder increased. The sensory evaluation results showed that the 2% turmeric powder sample showed the highest preference scores; therefore, the 2% turmeric powder Dasik prepared with 98g of flour, 2g of turmeric powder, and 80g of honey was chosen as the most preferred product. It is expected that the development of Dasik added with functional food such as turmeric powder can influence the use of turmeric and increase the consumption of Korean traditional cookies.

This study investigated the quality characteristics of Yanggaeng with different amounts (in ratios of 0, 1, 2, 4% to the total materials) of tumeric powders. The proximate composition and total polyphenol content, antioxidant activities, Hunter's color values, pH, Brix and sensory properties of tumeric hanging were examined. Results of analysis of the proximate composition analysis showed that ash content was increased significantly by adding turmeric powder and the more content of turmeric powder. The higher content of tumeric powder, the higher total polyphenol and total flavonoids contents. Brix and brightness were lowered and yellowness was increased. The sensory properties were highly rated for the control without turmeric powder in four organoleptic (sensory) properties (taste, texture, odor, acceptance) except color. The group with-1% addition of turmeric powder was highly rated in the second place.

This study was conducted to evaluate the quality characteristics of sulgidduck with addition of 0, 1, 3, 5 and 7% turmeric powder. The moisture content of sulgidduck ranged from 33.71% to 37.75. The addition of turmeric powder to sulgidduck tended to decrease the pH value, whereas it did not change $brix^{\circ}$ values of the samples. For Hunter color values, addition of turmeric powder to sulgidduck tended to decrease lightness (L) and increase redness (a) and yellowness (b). For textural characteristics, addition of turmeric powder decreased hardness, whereas adhesiveness and springiness of the samples were unaffected. The addition of turmeric powder to sulgidduk tended to increase gumminess. The addition of turmeric powder to sulgidduk tended to decrease chewiness. In the sensory evaluation, addition of 3% turmeric powder resulted in the best score in terms of taste and overall preference. Therefore, these results suggest that addition of 3% turmeric powder could be applied for making turmeric powder sulgidduk.

The objective of this study was to determine the quality characteristics and antioxidant activities of Yaksik prepared with different amounts of turmeric powder. Turmeric powder was incorporated into Yaksik at different levels containing 1.7, 2.8, and 3.9% based on the total weight of ingredients. Moisture contents of Yaksik were 41.45~44.93% and increased with higher amount of turmeric powder. Ash and crude lipid contents did not show any significant differences between control and samples. The control group showed higher sweetness and lower pH than the other groups, and sweetness decreased and pH increased upon addition of turmeric powder. In the chromaticity determination, L value decreased while a and b values increased as turmeric powder increased. The total polyphenol and flavonoid contents proportionally increased with levels of turmeric powder. The antioxidant activities measured by DPPH and ABTS radical scavenging activities as well as reducing power were significantly higher than those of the control and proportionally increased as turmeric powder increased. In the sensory evaluation, control and Yaksik made with 1.7% addition of turmeric powder showed the highest preference in terms of color, taste, texture, and overall acceptance. These results suggest that turmeric powder may be a useful ingredient in Yaksik to improve quality and sensory properties.

BACKGROUND/OBJECTIVES: Turmeric and its active component curcumin have received considerable attention due to their many recognized biological activities. Turmeric has been commonly used in food preparation and herbal remedies in South Asia, leading to a high consumption rate of curcumin in this region. However, the amount of curcumin in the Korean diet has not yet been estimated, where turmeric is not a common ingredient. SUBJECTS/METHODS: This study utilized the combined data sets obtained from the Korea National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey conducted from 2008 to 2012 in order to estimate the curcumin intake in the Korean diet. The mean intake of curcumin was estimated from the amount of curcumin-containing foods (curry powder and ready-made curry) consumed using reported curcumin content in commercial turmeric and curry powders. RESULTS: Only 0.06% of Koreans responded that they consumed foods containing curcumin in a given day, and 40% of them were younger than 20 years of age. Curcumin-containing foods were largely prepared at home (72.9%) and a significant proportion (20.4%, nearly twice that of all other foods) was consumed as school and workplace meals. The estimated mean turmeric intake was about 0.47 g/day corresponding to 2.7-14.8 mg curcumin, while the average curry powder consumption was about 16.4 g, which gave rise to curcumin intake in the range of 8.2-95.0 mg among individuals who consumed curcumin. The difference in estimated curcumin intake by using the curcumin content in curry powder and turmeric may reflect that curry powder manufactured in Korea might contain higher amounts of other ingredients such as flour, and an estimation based on the curcumin content in the turmeric might be more acceptable. CONCLUSIONS: Thus, the amount of curcumin that can be obtained from the Korean diet in a day is 2.7-14.8 mg, corresponding to nearly one fourth of the daily curcumin intake in South Asia, although curcumin is rarely consumed in Korea.
