This study was conducted to determine the effect of far infrared-vacuum drying on the quality changes of Pimpinella bracycarpa, such as drying efficiency (weight loss), color differences, browning degrees, rehydration and sensory evaluation. Wehn Pimpinella bracycarpa was dried for designated time at 5$0^{circ}C$, 6$0^{circ}C$ and 7$0^{circ}C$, drying time of far infrared-vacuum drying was decreased more than 17% compared to that of infrared drying. The color changes increased as drying temperature increased and far infrared-vacuum drying made less color changes than infrared drying. Also, the total microbial counts and the number of yeast and mold were gradually reduced as drying temperature increased and drying time was longer, but there was no significant differences in microbial changes among drying methods. The rehydration rates of Pimpinella bracycarpa increased as drying temperature increased and was better at far infrared-vacuum drying than infrared drying. Also, according to the sensory evaluation after rehydration of Pimpinella bracycarpa, the hihger scores were obtained at lower temperature and far infrared-vacuum drying, especially the color was obtained much hihger score in the far infrared-vacuum drying than infrared drying. Thus, the results showed that drying efficiency and stability of rehydration and color changes was increased and the quality deterioration of Pimpinella bracycarpa could be minimized by using far infrared-vacuum drying.
