This study was perfomed to evaluate the shelf-life, physicochemical, sensory evaluation of rice cake and noodle mixed with Bakjakyak(Paeonia japonica) powder at different ratio. Moisture content decreased gently during storage and the decrease was less in Bakjakyak powder-added groups than the control group. The color L value decreased significantly by with increasing the Bakjakyak powder and increased during storage. Color a and b value incresed significantly by addition of Bakjakyak powder. In the total plate count, Bakjakyak powder-added group showed less growth of microorganisms compared to the control group. As a result of the sensory evaluation, rice cake and noodle with Bakjakyak were superior in color, flavor, taste, cohesiveness and overall quality than that of control group. The 3%-added group was most superior in terms of color and the 1% added group gained the highest grade in terms of flavor, taste, overall quality. The results suggested that Bakjakyak was effective in increasing the shelf-life and retarding the staling of rice cake and noodle.
