This study focused on microwave irradiation of dough, raising its temperature to monitor potential variations of dough properties and bread quality, and examined the optimum mixture ratio towards streamlining the bread-making process. According to comparison and analysis on dough properties and bread quality depending on mixture materials, it was found that Salt 2 had the highest dough temperature of all, and Salt 1 had the highest fermentation rate and specific volume but the lowest hardness (i.e. highest softness). Results of sensory evaluation, were that Salt 1.5 scored highest points in sweet taste, aftertaste, and overall acceptance, but there were significant differences among bread samples. Likewise, it was found that Fat 6 had the highest dough temperature, fermentation rate and specific volume of all. Texture analysis, showed that Fat 0 had the highest hardness of all. According to sensory characteristics, Fat 3 scored the highest points in overall acceptance. Based on these results, the optimum mixture ratio of salt and fat for microwave-irradiated bread was found to be 1.5% salt and 3% fat.
