Abstract

Purpose: For dissecting the possible benefits and usages of Cheonggukjang, five different beans, soybean, black soybean, red bean, chickpea, and lentil bean, underwent the fermentation process along with Bacillus subtilis. Methods: Resultant Cheonggukjang physicochemical and sensory properties such as pH, amino type nitrogen, slime contents, rheological properties, and sensory strength and consumer acceptance were analyzed. Results: Values of pH were found to be highest in Cheonggukjang made with soybean (SC), followed by Cheonggukjang made with black bean (BSC) and Cheonggukjang made with red bean and soybean mixture (RBSC), and lastly Cheonggukjang made with chickpea (CBC) and lentil bean (LBC). Amino type nitrogen values were shown to be highest in SC with a value of $394.74{\pm}28.80mg%$, subsequently were values taken from RBSC, followed by BSC, CBC, and lastly LBC. Slime contents were the highest in SC with a value of $3.44{\pm}0.36%$, with RBSC, BSC, CBC, and LBC without statistical difference. Total colony count was found to show higher value in BSC, SC, and RBSC, in contrast to the lower values found in CBC and LBC. Color was shown to be lightest in CBC and with darker shades shown that of SC, LBC, RBSC, and BSC in descending order. In rheological properties, hardness, adhesiveness, and viscosity were found to be highest in SC. Sensory strength analysis and sticky appearance were highest in SC, with fermented odor being lowest in CBC and BSC. The strength of sweetness, sourness, and umami taste did not show statistical difference, however, bitterness was shown to be highest in LBC and lowest in CBC, SC, and BSC. In the consumer acceptance test, overall acceptance was highest in SC and CBC. Conclusion: In conclusion, SC was found to be the best bean variety for making Cheonggukjang fermented with Bacillus subtilis, however, CBC may act as an alternative for manufacture of Cheonggukjang resulting in sound consumer acceptance.
