This study was carried out to investigate the effect of various lipids on the quality of Yackwa. Sesame oil, soybean oil, margarine for cream, margarine for pie and shortening were used as lipid for making dough of Yackwa in this study. The expansion rate of Yackwa ranked in the order of shortening, margarine for pie, soybean oil, margarine for cream and sesame oil. The Yackwa made with shortening showed low hardness, cohesiveness, gumminess and brittleness such as the ones made with sesame oil. The Yackwa made with sesame oil was oily and showed the lowest acceptability, but the Yackwa of shortening gained the highest score of acceptability in sensory evaluation. In conclusion. this experimental result indicated that shortening would be very useful as a substitute for sesame oil in making Yackwa.
