Abstract
Effective methods for extraction of hot taste component in red (capsaicin) and black (piperine) peppers and simultaneous HPLC analysis were established to estimate level of peppers used. Capsaicin and pipeline contents of red and black peppers were 48.75-87.58 and 2900-5520 mg/100 g, respectively, Contents of capsaicin and pipeline in ramen soup base were $2.47{\pm}1.49mg/100g$ and $46.20{\pm}16.10mg/100g$, and estimated levels of red and black peppers were $4.02{\pm}2.37%$ and $1.23{\pm}0.43%$, respectively, In bowl ramens contents of capsaicin and pipeline were $2.02{\pm}1.18mg/100g$ and $41.98{\pm}23.12mg/100g$, and estimated levels of red and black peppers were $3.28{\pm}1.92%$ and $1.09{\pm}0.60%$, respectively. Capsaicin and piperine contents of hot ramens were $4.83{\pm}2.69 mg/100 g$ and $69.49{\pm}20.03mg/100g$, and estimated levels of red and black peppers were $8.62{\pm}4.42%$ and $1.79{\pm}0.58%$, respectively. In bibimmen, capsaicin content was $14.29{\pm}5.72mg/100g$, and piperine was not detected, an indication that only red pepper was used as hot condiment.
