This study has been designed to stress the thoughts that soups should be offered taking into account customer's preference aimed at leading to eventual customer's satisfaction and the importance that Korean traditional food should take the lead in shifting dining-out industry's paradigm to customer-orientation instead of product-orientation. From August 15 through August 30, 2003, the drawn-up questionnaires were handed out to 500 numbers of adults aged over 20 living in Seoul, metropolitan city of Korea and the finally collected 361 questionnaires from them have been analysed as a subject for this study. It showed that the male respondents(44%) dined out much more frequently than the female respondents(35%) and their rate of 5,000-7,000 Won for a meal was most preferred as their average expenditure at one sitting in the restaurant. When eating Korean food at home or in a restaurant, the majority(5l,3%) of them think the soups(Tang) should be served coupled with their ordered meals. Among soups using flesh and meat as a staple material, they most preferred beef & bone soup(33.2%), followed by beep rib soup(30.4%) and beef soup with seasoned red pepper(l0.8%), and among soups using fish & shell and crustacean as a staple material, most preferred were hot fish soup(20.6%), loach soup(l5.2%) and hot crab soup(11.4%). Among soups using beans as a staple material, they most preferred soybean paste stew(33.2%), uncurdled soybean curd stew(29.4%) and Dambuk stew(l5.8%). Among soups using fowls and birds as a staple material, chicken soup with ginseng(51.9%), plain chicken soup(l8.4%) and chicken soup with red pepper sauce(l2.3%) falls on the most preferred. Among soups using vegetables and seaweeds as a staple material, most preferred are sea mustard soup(25.3%), Kimchi soup(16.8%), soybean paste soup with Chinese cabbage(13.0%) and bean sprout soup(10.1%). The soups(Tang) most preferred in the morning time are those soups whose staple materials are vegetables and seaweeds, such as sea mustard soup, bean sprout soup, Kimchi soup and soybean paste soup with Chinese cabbage while the soups most preferred for the lunch time are beef & bone soup, beep rib soup, chicken soup with ginseng and beef soup with seasoned red pepper while beef soup with seasoned red pepper, beef & bone soup, soybean curd stew and Kimchi soup are most preferred soups for the dinner time. The survey showed that 41 % of the subject preferred chicken soup with ginseng for a food considered good by themselves for their health. The male respondents preferred Bosin-tang(soup of edible-dog meat) than the female counterparts did, while the female respondents preferred chicken soup with ginseng than the male counterparts did. The survey showed that when eating korean traditional food, 70% of the subject are visiting a restaurant where soups are cooked delicious while 61% of the subject think that price does not matter if only food tastes good, which is reflecting that taste of food is a decisive factor in selecting menu rather than its price is. In conclusion, you can say that taste of soup is the most important factor creating steady customer in the restaurant, taking it into account Korean people most prefer their traditional food when dining out.

We examined whether visual perception related to consumption norms could influence food consumption and satiety by using modified soup bowls with elevated bottoms. Twenty-six healthy women (BMI 19.9 $kg/m^2$ Age 24 yr) participated in the study once a week for 2 weeks. The subjects were served beef shank soup in one of two soup bowls (180 g soup in the modified bowl or 250 g soup in the normal bowl). The results showed that subjects who ate from the modified soup bowl consumed less soup (135.3 kcal vs 180.0 kcal, P<0.001) and had lower total energy intake (390.6 kcal vs 438.1 kcal, P<0.01) than those who ate from the normal soup bowl. However, despite consuming fewer calories, satiety levels of those who ate from the modifed soup bowl were not significantly different from those using the normal soup bowl. In conclusion, these results indicate that the modified soup bowl which created a distorted visual perception ot the amount of soup in the bowl leads to decreased soup intake and total energy intake without altering satiety. The reduced amount of soup in the modified soup bowl may also implicitly suggest what might be interpreted as an appropriate amount to consume, and also in essence suggest reduced consumption norm.

The purpose of this study was to examine sodium intakes from soup, stew and noodle in school lunch using sodium content database separately developed for the solid part, liquid part of soup and stew (liquid based dishes) in middle school students. Two hundred fifty two middle school students in Seoul were asked about awareness towards reducing sodium intake and soup/stew intake provided in school lunch in September 2015. Only 68% of students were aware of the 'Day without soup/stew' event and why those events were held. Girls tend to consume more all solid and liquid parts of soups than boys in Miso soup (50.0% vs 36.2%), Bean sprout soup (56.6% vs 44.8%), Seaweed soup (61.8% vs 45.7%), Beef Radish soup (61.8% vs 59.5%), and Korean pasta soup with Kimchi (58.1% vs 46.6%). Average sodium intake from soup/stew/noodle dishes in school lunch was $379.6{\pm}183.9mg$ if behaviors of eating solid or liquid parts were considered and $556.8{\pm}190.6mg$ if behaviors of eating solid or liquid parts were not considered. Based on the results, the difference of sodium intake depends on the consuming behaviors of liquid parts of soup and stew dishes. It is necessary to establish and use a sodium database for each solid part and liquid part separately in soup, stew and noodle dishes to assess more accurate sodium intake. Education on the reduction of sodium intake through proper behaviors is salient in the achievement of a healthy diet.

This study was intended to develop traditional Korean soup recipe which can be used for food service and meet consumers' taste with a focus on clear soup such as clear radish soup, sea mustard soup, dried pollack soup, croaker soup, and backbone soup. The developed sample(S1) showed the highest level of overall preference among consumers. There were significant differences in sensory characteristics of the samples especially between S1 and others. The sensory characteristics of each soup showed a slight difference depending on the kind of soup, however, all items had an effect on overall preference. One of the standardized recipe to make broth was presented as follows: The ingredients for broth consists of the shank or brisket of beef(100 g), water(10 cup), spring onion(20 g), onion(30 g), garlic(10 g), salt(1 teaspoonful), and black pepper power(1/10 teaspoonful). 1) The meat part of shank or brisket is prepared. 2) The unfrozen meat is immersed in cold water for 20 min, whereby blood is extracted from the meat. 3) 10 cups of water are poured into the pan and boiled enough. 4) After water has boiled enough, the lump of meat with blood extracted is cut into 2 or 3 pieces and is boiled in the boiling water by high-intensity heat with the pan lid uncovered, and dirty foam is scooped out while boiling. 5) If the broth begins to be extracted, the intensity of heat is lowered for boiling for one hour or so, and then again boiled for 30 min with spring onion, garlic, onion and the like. If the broth is extracted enough, spring onion, garlic, onion, and others are removed from the pan. the broth is seasoned with salt and black pepper powder, and foam is removed by using fine mesh sieve or gauze. Then, 6 cups of clear broth is obtained finally.

The present study is concerned with the bacteriological examination of retort pouched loach soup and soybean paste soup containing mud snail. It was found that before sterilization, viable cell counts (c.f.u/ml) in their media were for the loach soup 3.80${\times}$106 on TSA, 2.27${\times}$102 Endo agar, 5.20${\times}$102 on SS agar. With the culture media, SDA and TCBS, no microorgarnisms were isolated from the both soups. Sixteen species of microorgarnisms were identified for the unsterilized soups. In the loach soup on TSA, B. pantothenticus was the dominant species, followed by S. dysenteriae, C. sporogenes and some others were also identified, such on TSA, B. marinus was the dominant species, followed by S. aureus, S. saccharolytics and P. tetradius, S. adorifera, E. ictahuri, E. gergoviae, E. coli were also identified. On Endo agar, the two soups showed a similar bacteriological pattern, in which entrobacterium such as E. gergoviae and E. coli were identified. Particularly K. subsp. rhinoscleromatis for the loach soup. On SS agar, S. ficaria and P. prevotii in the loach soup, S. ficaria and P. tetradius in the soybean paste soup were identified respectively. Bacteriological examination was also carried out for the spoiled retort pouched soup in the market, in which thirteen microorgarnisms were isolated and its pattern almost similar to that before sterilzation. They were B. pantothenticus, S. dysenteriae, C. sporogenes, P. gergoviae, E. ictaluri, S. ficaria, K. subsp. rhinoscleromatis in the loach soup and B. marinus, S. aureus, S. saccharolytics, P. tetradius, E. ictaluri, S. ficaria, S. adorifera in the soybean soup.

Optimum preparation conditions for chicken head soup base were determined in terms of the effects of amount of chicken head and cooking time using response surface methodology based on sensory properties. Sensory properties that were evaluated were yellowness, turbidity, bloody, chicken-brothy, organ meat-like, and fat-like flavor. All values of sensory characteristics increased remarkably with an increase in the amount of chicken head and cooking time. The optimum amount of chicken head and cooking time were determined to be 1800 g and 150 minutes, respectively. Chicken head soup base had less fat, free amino acids, nucleotides, and its derivatives, but had significantly more cholesterol, sodium, and iron than whole chicken soup base. In flavor compound analysis, the amount of hexanal of the chicken head soup base, which is related to fat rancidity flavor, was 11-fold higher than that of the whole chicken soup base.
