Purpose: The aim of this study was to investigate the quality characteristics of pancake mix containing Dioscorea batatas powder. In order to optimize the formulation ratio of the pancakes, steaming process was used to develop health-oriented products by adding D. batatas saponin and improved blood circulation. Methods: D. batatas powder was substituted into pancake at 0%, 10%, 20%, 30% and 40% of the total weight of wheat flour. Results: The viscosity of batter tended to increase as the ratio of D. batatas powder increased whereas the measures of spreadability were not significantly changed. In addition, the L-value and b-values decreased gradually while a-value increased. Among the textural characteristics cohesiveness tended to increase in proportion to the amount of D. batatas powder. Conclusion: The results of the sensory evaluation showed that pancake made with 20% D. batatas powder was the most preferable in appearance, flavor, taste, texture, and overall acceptability.

The effects of lactic acid bacteria from kimchi fermentation, specifically Lactobacillus plantarum(LP) and Leuconostoc mesenteroides (LM) on the quality of the bread product was investigated. The two types of bacteria were cultivated in the sterilized radish juice used for kimchi fermentation. The concentration of bacteria was measured at 3.0$\times$10$^{9}$ ~3.3$\times$10$^{9}$ /mL. The bacteria were added at the ratios of 5% and 10% to a mixture with wheat flour before subsequent dough fermentation. An LM+LP treatment to the mixture was also made at 5% of LP and 5% of LM. The measured pH in the dough with LM+LP was the lowest among all of treatments. The products of 5% LM treatment showed the shortest fermentation time. Loaf production by volume was the highest from the 10% LM treatment. The % of moisture loss of the bread during the shelf-storage was less when treated with lactic acid bacteria than when left untreated. The least moisture loss was observed when the bread was treated with the LM+LP mixture. Hardness of the bread also decreased with the presence of lactic acid bacteria. The order of hardness was: control > 5% LP > LM+LP > 5% LM > 17% LM > 10% LP. Staling degree of the bread when treated with lactic acid bacteria was lower than that of the control. The least staling occurred when treated with LM 10% and LP 10%.

This study examined the quality characteristics of brown sauce prepared with rice powder in place of wheat flour, which is the commonly used thickener. With regard to the general components, as the level of rice powder increased and its ratio in the stock increased, moisture decreased and crude protein, lipid, and ash increased. Reducing sugar content was 4.72% in the control group, and as the mixing ratio of stock to rice powder increased from 100:5 (S1) to 100:13 (S5) in the rice powder-added groups, reducing sugar content increased from 3.94% to 4.82%, respectively. In terms of Hunter's color values, as more rice power was added to the beurre mani$\acute{e}$, L, a, and b values increased. Thus, a sauce of a light brown color was appropriately made. For consistency, as more rice powder beurre mani? was inserted into the analyzer, flow was reduced and viscosity significantly increased. The pH of the control (CS) was 4.94, and there were no significant differences between the control and the rice powder-added groups. In sensory evaluations, color presented its highest score as 6.47 when the mixing ratio of stock to beurre mani$\acute{e}$ was 100:7 (S2). S2 also received the highest score for flavor at 6.32. Viscosity was highest in the control (CS) at 6.26, and was not significantly different from the 100:7 (S2) or 100:9 (S3) groups. Finally, the S2 group had the highest scores for taste (6.21) and overall-acceptability (6.30). In correlation analyses between the sensory characteristics, overall-acceptability as well as the color, flavor, viscosity, and taste of the brown sauce all presented comparatively high positive correlations, in which overall-acceptability and color had the highest correlation.

The objective of this study was to exploit the use of this nutrient-rich byproduct in cookies by replacing wheat flour at 10~30% levels. The specific gravity and pH of cookies decreased slightly with increasing apple pomace concentration, but the specific gravity of cookies showed no significant difference in the additive group. The sugar contents of cookies was significantly increased to $2.07^{\circ}Brix$ at 30%. Moisture content, spread factor, loss rate, and leaving rate of cookies increased with increasing apple pomace concentration. Lightness, redness, and yellowness of cookies decreased from 70.46 to 56.25, and 5.60 to 3.01, and 37.52 to 27.92, respectively, with increasing apple pomace concentration. In the sensory evaluation, sensory scores for color, flavor, texture, appearance, and overall preference were highest in the 10% and 20% apple pomace cookies in the additive group. Thus, our results suggested that the optimum amount of apple pomace that can be added to cookies was 20%.

This study was to investigate the quality characteristics of noodles prepared with germinated brown rice and rice bran, and to determine the changes in GABA content and antioxidant activity of the noodles. These noodles were evaluated for cooking properties (cooking loss, swelling index, water holding capacity), total polyphenols, antioxidant activities (radical scavenging of ABTS and DPPH), and GABA contents. The addition of germinated rice bran in the range of 5, 10, and 15% showed a significant influence on cooking loss, although no effect on swelling index was observed. The raw and cooked noodles containing germinated brown rice and rice bran contained more GABA contents (2751.6~4176.7 and 5522.0~9617.8 nmol/20 g of fresh noodle, respectively) than those of non-germinated brown rice and rice bran. Noodles made with germinated brown rice and rice bran had similar total polyphenolics contents and antioxidant activities compared to noodles made with non-germinated brown rice and rice bran. Overall, the germinated brown rice could be used as a good ingredient to increase the nutritional value and antioxidant properties of wheat flour noodle without affecting the cooking properties.

To develop a value-added product from individually quick-frozen oyster Crassostrea gigas extract (IQFOE), we prepared two types of oyster sauce (OS): bottled OS (BOS) and retort pouched OS (ROS). We investigated processing conditions, quality metrics and flavor compounds in each type of sauce. We found that the most appropriate base formular for both BOS and ROS consisted of 40.0% IQFOE (Brix $30^{\circ}$), 15.0% sugar, 6.0% salt, 4.0% monosodium glutamate, 4.0% soy sauce, 3.5% starch, 3.0% yeast extract, 3.5% wheat flour and 21.0% water. The crude protein, salinity and amino-nitrogen contents of the BOS and ROS were 8.2 and 8.3%, 9.3 and 9.2%, and 539.2 and 535.2 mg/100 g, respectively. In commercial oyster sauces (COS), these values were 4.7-6.5%, 9.7-12.0%, and 244.7-504.2 mg/100 g, respectively. The total free amino acids content of ROS was 7,346.9 mg/100 g, and the main free amino acids were glutamic acid, taurine, proline, glycine and alanine. The inosinic monophosphate (IMP) content of the ROS was 131.6 mg/100 g, and the primary inorganic ions were Na, K, S and P. The present BOS and ROS have favorable organoleptic qualities and storage stability compared with COS, and are suitable for commercialization as high-flavor seasoning sauces.

To develop a highly value-added product from extract from small and damaged sea mussels Mytilus edulis, we prepared two types of sea mussel sauce (MS): bottled (BMS) and retort pouched (RMS). We investigated the processing conditions, quality metrics and flavor compounds in each type of sauce. We found that the most appropriate base formulation for both BMS and RMS consisted of 40.0% SME (Brix $30^{\circ}$), 15.0% sugar, 6.0% salt, 4.0% monosodium glutamate, 4.0% soy sauce, 3.5% starch, 3.0% yeast extract, 3.5% wheat flour and 21.0% water. The crude protein, salinity, volatile basic nitrogen and amino-nitrogen content of the BMS and RMS were 8.7% and 8.8%, 9.3% and 9.2%, 24.9 and 31.4 mg/100 g, and 468.5 and 455.1 mg/100 g, respectively. For comparison, the ranges of these values in commercial oyster sauces (COS) are 4.7-7.5%, 10.7-12.0%, 8.2-12.5 mg/100 g, and 225.7-448.2 mg/100 g, respectively. The total free amino acid content of RMS and Premium COS was 7,215.7 and 6,160.7 mg/100 g, respectively, and the main free amino acids were glutamic acid, taurine, glycine, alanine, arginine, proline and lysine. These results demonstrate that BMS and RMS have favorable organoleptic qualities and good storage stability compared to COS, and are suitable for commercialization as high-flavor seasoning sauces.

This study was conducted to investigate the properties of wet noodle when different concentrations of Prunus mume juice were added to the wheat flour. The characteristics of wet noodle including cooking properties, color, mechanical texture properties, and sensory quality were determined. The compositions of Prunus mume were 88.19% moisture, 0.45% crude ash, 4.04% citric acid and 0.41% total sugars. The pH of Prunus mume was 2.76. The moisture absorption rate, weight, volume and turbidity of cooked noodles added with Prunus mume juice were lower than reference sample. When the amount of Prunus mume juice increased, the Hunter L(brightness) value, a(redness) value of cooked noodles decreased but b(yellowness) value increased. Instrumental rheological characteristics of wet noodle containing Prunus mume juice were measured with a texture analyzer. The hardness, adhesiveness, cohesiveness, springiness and gumminess of wet noodle with 20% Prunus mume juice were higher than others. However, the hardness of cooked noodle decreased with the increase in the amount of Prunus mume juice into noodle. The adhesiveness, cohesiveness, springiness and gumminess of cooked noodles added with Prunus mume juice were higher than reference sample. The results of sensory evaluation of cooked noodles containing Prunus mume juice indicated that the appearance, color, taste and chewiness of the cooked noodle with 10% Prunus mume juice showed the higher preference than others. Based on cooking properties, rheological and sensory evaluation, addition of 10% Prunus mume juice suggested to be acceptable for processing wet noodle.

Effects of number of washings with solvents on drying rates and physicochemical properties of dried soymilk residues(SMR) were investigated. The dried soymilk residue was prepared by washing the residue with acetone or ethanol, followed by drying at $60^{\circ}C$. Increase of number of washings with a residue/solvent ratio of 1/1.5 resulted in an increase in drying rate and in protein content of the residue while the lipid content decreased. The brightness of the dried residue and the properties of water and oil absorption were also improved by washing with acetone which was advantageous to ethanol for all of the properties measured. Washings more than 3 times with acetone or 2 times with ethanol were found to be less effective in terms of quality improvement. The more addition of dried residue into the mixture of SMR-wheat flour resulted in a linear increase of water and oil absorption characteristics.

This study was conducted to develop an optimal composite recipe of nutritional cookies containing oak mushroom (Lentinus edodes) powder that has a high preference score. Oak mushroom(Lentinus edodes) is considered a significantly wholesome food. In addition, the dried oak mushroom(Lentinus edodes) has a better flavor and more nutrients than the fresh oak mushroom since vitamins are activated during the drying process. Wheat flour was partially substituted with Lentinus edodes powder to reduce its content. The optimal sensory composite recipe was determined by making iced cookies which have the advantage of long storage, at 3 concentrations of Lentinus edodes powder, yellow sugar and butter, using the central composite design. In addition, the mixing condition of Lentinus edodes powder cookies was optimized by subjecting the cookies to a sensory evaluation and instrumental analysis using the response surface methodology(RSM). The effects of the addition of the three variables on the quality of Lentinus edodes cookies were assessed in terms of texture, color, spread ratio and sensory evaluation. The results of the sensory evaluation produced very significant values for color, appearance, texture, overall quality(p<0.05), flavor(p<0.01) and the results of instrumental analysis showed significant values in lightness(p<0.05), spread ratio, hardness(p<0.01). As a result, the optimal sensory ratio of Lentinus edodes cookies was determined to be Lentinus edodes powder 10.83g, yellow sugar 61.89 g, and butter 120.0 g.
