Some Chemical Physical Characteristics and Acceptability of Kochoojang from Various starch Sources

전분질 원료를 달리한 고추장의 화학적.물리적 성질과 기호성

Changes in chemical composition, viscosity and color during fermentation of improved Kochoojang from four starch sources (wheat, barley, rice and glutinous rice) were examined. Analyses included measurements of moisture, reducing sugars, amino nitrogen, pH, total acidity, viscosity, color and sensory panel scores for viscosity, color, odor and taste. Changes in chemical composition were similar for all Kochoojang products. Decrease in viscosity was greatest during the first 10 days of fermentation. Hunter tristimulus values decreased gradually during fermentation, and total color difference after 60 days was greatest for rice flour Kochoojang. Sensory evaluation showed that the viscosity of rice flour Kochoojang was less desirable than that of the others. However, no significant differences were found in color, odor and taste of all Kochoojang products. A high negative correlation was observed between Hunter a value and visual preference.

밀가루, 보리쌀, 쌀, 찹쌀을 각각 전분질원료로 사용한 고추장의 숙성중 화학성분, 점도 및 색도의 변화를 조사하고 관능검사를 한 결과, 수분, 환원당, 아미노태 질소, pH 및 적정산도는 네 가지 고추장 모두 그 변화 경향이 비슷하였으며, 점도는 처음 10일 동안에 급격히 감소하였다. 색도는 숙성중 lightness, redness 및 yellowness가 점차로 감소하였는데 60일 후의 total color difference는 쌀고추장이 가장 컸다. 관능검사 결과 점도만 쌀고추장과 다른 고추장 사이에 유의차가 있었고, 색, 향기, 맛은 유의차가 없어 전체적으로 전분질원료에 따른 품질의 차이는 없었으며 Hunter a값은 육안으로 판정한 주관적 평가의 순위와 높은 상관관계를 보였다.
