Abstract

The purpose of this study was to obtain basic data necessary for making a nuruk salt by comparing and analyzing the ingredients of various nuruk salts, and to select a nuruk salt that meets the users' needs. We selected the types of nuruk as the ihwaguk, miinguk, baekguk, and koji to identify the characteristics of the nuruk, and then analyzed the chemical characteristics after manufacturing the nuruk salts under the same conditions of fermentation, such as material ratio and temperature. In the manufacture of nuruk salt, the pH level dropped from 6.2~6.5 before fermentation to 6.1~6.2 three days after fermentation. The Acidity increased from 0.16~0.18 before fermentation to 0.22~0.25 after fermentation and there was no difference between the nuruk. The sugar content has risen since fermentation, and nuruk salt made by koji showed the largest increase in the sugar content. The salinity of the nuruk salt was raised to 37~44 after fermentation from 30~32 before fermentation and indicated largest increase in nuruk salt made by koji. Organic acids of nuruk salt were detected in the order of acetic acid, oxalic acid, malic acid, lactic acid, and citric acid. The oxalic acid of the baekguk salt was found to be 0.77 mg/mL, 2.3 times more of the koji, and the succinic acid was also found to be the highest with 1.19 mg/mL. Malic acid, lactic acid, acetic acid, and citric acid were found to have the highest amount of koji salt at 0.29 mg/mL, 1.48 mg/mL, and 0.12mg/mL, respectively, making it a better taste to be soft than other nuruk salt.

본 연구는 각종 누룩으로 제조한 누룩소금들의 성분을 비교분석하여 누룩소금 제조시 필요한 기초자료를 확보하고 사용자의 요구에 맞는 누룩소금을 선택할 수 있도록 하는 것을 목적으로 하였다. 누룩종류로 이화국, 미인국, 백국, 입국을 선정하여 누룩을 제조한 후 특성을 파악하였고, 재료비율과 온도 등 동일한 발효조건하에 누룩소금을 제조 후 이화학적 특성을 분석하였다. 누룩소금 제조 시 pH는 발효전 6.2-6.5에서 발효 3일후 6.1-6.2로 떨어진 다음 이후에는 약간 높아졌다. 총산은 발효전 0.16-0.18에서 발효후 0.22-0.25로 증가하였으며 누룩 간 차이는 없었다. 당도는 발효 후 높아졌으며 입국으로 만든 누룩소금이 가장 큰 당도 증가를 보였다. 누룩소금의 염도는 발효 전 30-32에서 발효 후 37-44로 높아졌으며 입국의 증가폭이 가장 컸다. 누룩소금의 유기산은 acetic acid, oxalic acid, malic acid, lactic acid, citric acid 순으로 많이 검출되었다. 백국소금의 oxalic acid는 0.77 mg/mL으로 입국소금의 2.3배 많았고, succinic acid도 1.19 mg/mL로 백국소금이 가장 많은 것으로 나타났다. 한편 malic acid, lactic acid, acetic acid 및 citric acid는 각각 0.29 mg/mL, 1.48 mg/mL, 0.12 mg/mL로 입국소금이 가장 많은 것으로 나타나 입국으로 제조한 누룩소금이 다른 누룩으로 제조한 누룩소금 보다 부드러운 감칠맛이 더 좋은 것으로 나타났다.
