The Chemical Components of Perilla Leaf(frutescens Britton var. acuta Kudo) by the Making Process and Sensory Evaluation of Jasosuksu

제조과정에 따른 자소엽의 화학적 성분 및 자소숙수의 기호적 특성

The purpose of this study was to analyze the chemical components of Perilla leaf(frutescens Britton var. scuta Kudo) according to the making process, and to examine Hunter's color value and sensory evaluation of Jasosuksu by extraction time. Perilla leaves were prepared in three types; fresh leaf, dried leaf in the shade and roasted leaf after being dried in the shade in order to make Jasosuksu. The results of the research were as follows: Free sugars(sucrose, glucose, fructose) and organic acids(citric acid, tartaric acid, malic acid, succinic acid) were present in the fresh leaf, dried leaf and roasted leaf. $15{\sim}16$ kinds of amino acid including aspartic acid were determined in the fresh leaf, dried leaf and roasted leaf, and the major free amino acids were serine, aspartic acid, and glutamic acid. The major total amino acids of tile fresh leaf, dried leaf and roasted leaf were glutamic acid, histinine, and glycine. The major fatty acids of Perilla leaves were palmitic acid, linolenic acid, and linolenic acid. The content ratio of linolenic acid in fresh leaves was the highest, but that of palmitic acid was lower than that of dried leaves and roasted leaves. L value, a value, and b value of Perilla leaf were the highest in the roasted leaves followed by the order of dried leaves and fresh leaves. L value and b value of Jasosuksu extracted from roasted leaves were higher than Jasosuksu extracted from dried leaves. The preference of color, flavor, sweetness of Jasosuksu extracted from dried leaves was the highest when extraction time was 10 min. at $70^{\circ}C$, but that of Jasosuksu extracted from roasted leaves was the highest when extraction time was 15 min. at $70^{\circ}C$. The preference of color, flavor, taste of Jasosuksu extracted from roasted leaves was higher than that of Jasosuksu extracted from dried leaves.
