발효 과실주 첨가에 따른 육포의 품질 및 관능 특성

In this study, to investigate the effect of fermented fruit wines on quality and sensory characteristics of beef jerky physicochemical properties and sensory evaluation were determined. Acidity of fruit wines were high in order of Kiwifruit wine>Pineapple wine>Red grapes wine>Pear wine. Aw and pH of beef jerky added fruits wine decreased slowly with the extended storage period and these trend were obvious in jerky added kiwifruit wine. Textural characteristics values of all beef jerky samples were increased according to the storage period was prolonged. At 4 weeks of storage, beef jerky-added Kiwifruit wine showed the highest value in chewiness. The L, a, b values of all beef jerky samples showed a tendency to decrease with the extended storage period, and beef jerky-added kiwifruit wine were the highest value in L, a, b, at 4 weeks of storage. TBA values of beef jerky-added kiwifruit wine, Chungju (S) and pear wine (P) were $0.51\;\cal{mg/kg}$, $0.71\;and\;0.78\;\cal{mg/kg}$ respectively. Total plate counts of bacteria of all beef jerky-added fruit wines were lower than those of Control (Con) and increased as storage period was prolonged and beef jerky-added kiwifruit wine were the lowest value $9.0\times10^{5} CFU/g$ at 4 weeks of storage. In the sensory evaluation, beef jerky-added fruit wines showed higher score than those of Control (Con), and All beef jerky samples got high score at 1 week' of storage. Beef jerky-added Kiwifruit wine showed high score in almost sensory items and especially in overall.
