To industrialize the Korean traditional Kochujang, we investigated the process and changes of chemical components of glutineous rice Kochujang and barley Kochujang, which are our major traditional Kochujangs. We prepared traditional glutineous rice Kochujang and barley one in Sunchang and Keosan, respectively. To establish the optimal aging time, we investigated changes of the chemical components and sensory evaluation of the Kochujang during fermentation of 180 days. Changes of chemical components of glutineous rice Kochujang were similar to those of barley Kochujang. The results of sensory evaluation on color, flavor, taste, texture and overall acceptibility indicated that glutineous rice Kochujang was preferred to barley one, and the highest score was obtained at the aging of $90{\sim}120$ days for both Kochujangs. However, we established that the optimal aging time was 150 days by considering changes of permissible chemical components and the results of sensory evaluation at the same time.

This study was to improve the quality of Kochuzang and utilize red pepper seed. Kochuzang were prepared with the addition of red pepper seed and garlic (2％), compared the changes in the various chemical components and enzyme activity during the aging period of Kochuzang, and also organoleptic values of the products. Enzyme activities of liquefying and saccharogenic amylase, protease and lipase were increased by addition of garlic pulp and the suvival activities of enzyme except liquefying amylase were lasted high the late period of aging. Also the addition of red pepper seed was effective in maintaining the enzyme activities Change of titration acidity and pH of kochuzang were little when red pepper seed was added, but in case of a garlic additive it showed no difference at the late period of aging. Total nitrogen and amino nitrogen were increased by the addition of red pepper seed or garlic until the late period of aging, and ammonia nitrogen also increased during the middle period of againg, but showed no difference at the late period. Alcohol content was decreased by the addition of garlic or red pepper seed. but crude lipid was increased by the audition of red pepper seed. but crude lipid was increased by the addition of red pepper seed. Generally, taste, flavor and color of garlic added group were superior to the non-garlic added group for the products which aged for 10 weeks. Therefore, The quality of Barley Kochuazng may be improved by adding 2％ garlic to the whole red pepper.

Germination conditions were evaluated to obtain barley containing a high content of gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), and quality characteristics of saccharified materials manufactured using germinated barley were investigated. Water absorption content of barley increased but pH of the steeping solution decreased with increasing steeping time at all steeping temperatures. The changes in water absorption content and pH were highest at a steeping temperature of $25^{\circ}C$. The highest GABA content was obtained at a steeping condition of $25^{\circ}C$ for 20 h. The highest GABA content was obtained for a germination condition of $5^{\circ}C$ for 36 h after steeping, resulting in an increase of 7.4 times more GABA contents than that in raw material. The pH of saccarified materials decreased but titratable acidity, amino type nitrogen content, and ammonia type nitrogen content increased during the saccharification period. GABA content of saccarified materials increased with increasing saccharification period, resulting in the highest GABA content from saccarified materials containing germinated barley.

Physicochemical characteristics of traditional kochujang fermented for 6 months and commercial kochujang were compared. Tested kochujang included 18 kinds of Sunchang kochujang prepared with glutinous rice, 10 kinds of Boeun kochujang prepared with barley and 17 kinds of Sachun kochujang prepared with wheat, and 10 kinds of commercial kochujang. Major free sugar was found to be glucose both in traditional and commercial kochujang. Fructose, maltose, and sucrose were also detected in small amounts. The contents of free sugars in traditional kochujang was approximately one fourth of those presented in commercial kochujang. Commercial kochujang showed the highest level of total free amino acids followed in decreasing order by Sachun, Sunchang, and Boeun kochujang. The most abundant free amino acid was serine in Sunchang kochujang and aspartic acid both in Boeun and Sachun kochujang. On the other hand, glutamic acid was the most abundant amino acid in commercial kochujang. Volatile organic acids in various kochujang were determined and acetic, propionic, butyric, and 3-methyl butanoic acids were found in traditional kochujang. However, 3-methyl butanoic arid was not found in commercial kochujang. The most abundant volatile acid was acetic acid in both tradtional and commercial kochujang. Analysis of non-volatile organic acids showed that large amounts of lactic, oxalic, and succinic acids were found in traditional and commercial kochujang. In addition to these, small amounts of itaconic, malic, malonic, and pyroglutamic acids were found in commercial kochujang.

Free sugars of Kochujang which were prepared with different starch sources, i.e., glutinous rice, polished barley, wheat flour and sweet potato, were investigated for three months of aging. Glucose was found in all tested samples during aging period and the content increased with time, particularly higher for glutinous rice while lower for sweet potato. Fructose also was found through aging period, its content increased for a month and decreased later. The data showed higher fructose content in the order of sources of sweet potato, wheat flour, polished barley and glutious rice. Maltose and sucrose were detected only at the beginning of aging period and the content were less than 3.5% for maltose in all of samples and than 0.4% for sucrose with glutinous rice and wheat flour. Trace amount of rhamnose was detected in the Kochujang made from polished barley.

This study investigated the changes in physicochemical characteristics after 120 days of aging Korean red pepper paste, 'Kochujang', made of minor cereals in substitution for glutinous rice which has been conventionally used as starch source. The cereals used were waxy job's tears, proso millet, sorghum, barley and foxtail millet, Glutinous rice with barley was used as controls. The items determined were water activity, pH, content of amino nitrogen, chromaticity and sensory test. 1. The water activities(Aw) of Kochujang samples were in range of $0.72{\sim}0.82$ at the beginning of fermentation, with Aw barley paste bing the lowest, and Aw of sorghum paste bing the highest. Then Aw were slowly decreased to the range of $0.49{\sim}0.50$ during 120 days of fermentation 2. The pH of the pastes was in range of $4.94{\sim}5.02$ at the initial time of fermentation, and decreased steadily to 4.32{\sim}4.73 at the end. 3. The content of amino nitrogen was in range of $330.9{\sim}340.7\;mg%$ at the early time of fermentation. The highest content, $351{\sim}381\;mg%$, was observed at the 90th day of aging of glutinous rice paste, 105th day of job's tears paste, 75th day each of barley and proso millet, and 60th day each of sorghum and foxtail millet. 4. The Hunter tristimulus values (L, a, b) of all pastes were gradually decreased during fermentation. The value of barley paste was lowest among the pastes. 5. The texture of barley paste in sensory test showed significant difference with other pastes, whereas there were no differences in color, odor, taste and sensory qualities.

In an attempt to study the possibility of substituting sweet potato for cereals as raw materials for Kochujang, three kinds of Kochujang were made from barley, sweet potato or 50% barley and 50% sweet potato, The results of component variation during the ripening and the effect of temperature on the aging in the harvesting season of sweet potato were as follows: 1) Kochujang is, usually, manufactured in May, but no difference was observed in aging condition when it was manufactured in September, the season of sweet potato harvest, since the inner temperature of the product was around $20^{\circ}C$. 2) The total reducing sugar content and maturity reached maximum after $40{\sim}50\;days$ of fermentation in the three treatments and crude fat content tended to be slightly decreased during fermentation. 3) Lightness in color of the three kinds of Kochujang decreased by exposure to sunlight. Sweetpotato Kochujang showed a stronger tendency to increase the redness as compared with the rest. 4) Sensory evaluation showed that sweet potato Kochujang was less acceptable than barley Kochujang due to disagreeable flavor of sweet potato but mixed Kochujang showed little difference, as compared with barley Kochujang.
