This study was carried out to investigate quality characteristics of Seolgiddeok containing 0, 1, 3, 5 and 7% of Lentinus edodes powder during storage. The water content of Seolgiddeok changed little with the length of storage and the amount of Lentinus edodes powder added. Hunter′s color L value of Seolgiddeok decreased and "a"and "b"value were increased significantly by increasing the amount of Lentinus edodes powder. The hardness, gumminess, adhesiveness, chewiness and cohesiveness of Seolgiddeok decreased, but springiness increased by increasing the amount of Lentinus edodes powder. Seolgiddeok added with 3% Lentinus erodes earned the highest scores in color, taste, softness, chewiness, moistness and overall preference. From the above results of sensory and texture analyses, an addition of 3% Lentinus edodes to Seolgiddeok showed the best result in quality.
