  • Salt-fermented fish and fish sauce are very important materials to make Kimchi. They provide good taste and plenty of nutrition to Kimchi during fermentation. However, it is difficult to purchase Korean salt-fermented fish or fish sauce out of Korea. Therefore, to generalize Kimchi for other countries, this research carefully compared the quality differences between Kimchi made with South East Asian fish sauce, which is fairly similar to traditional Korean salt-fermented anchovy extract (Aekjeot) in terms of taste and ingredients, and that made with traditional Korean salt-fermented anchovy extract. To determine quality differences among traditional Korean Kimchies made with different sauces, Korean-made salt-fermented shrimp, salt-fermented shrimp extract, salt-fermented anchovy and salt-fermented anchovy extract were used. Of the four Kimchis, the one made with salt-fermented anchovy extract was chosen as a control sample and compared with those made with three different South-East Asian fish sauces. In the sensory evaluation for acceptance of fish sauces, characteristics of taste, texture and overall acceptance showed significant differences. In the sensory evaluation for differences, characteristics of fish odor and crunchiness showed visible differences. For umami taste, all fish sauces received higher points than Korean salt-fermented anchovy extract (control sample), although the difference was not significant. Sensory evaluation and research results show that Kimchi can become a highly likable food overseas and Kimchi can substitute easily bought South-East Asian fish sauces for Korean salt-fermented fish sauces (Jeotkal).

  • In other to establish the exact determination method of amino nitrogen (AN) in salt-fermented fish sauces, we determined the AN in fish sauces according to the measuring methods and also investigated the main factors influencing on determination method of AN. AN in salt-fermented anchovy sauce increased linearly as fermentation progressed, and was shown the highest amount measuring by the Formol method, followed by the trinitrobenzene sulfonic acid (TNBS) method and the Copper-salt method. AN concentration in anchovy sauces fermented for 12 months was $88.2\%$ and $77.6\%$ for the TNBS method and the Copper-salt method, respectively, on the basis of Formol method. The ratio of AN/total nitrogen (TN) in anchovy sauce fermented for 12 months was higher than that in commercial anchovy sauces. The determination of AN in anchovy sauce by the TNBS method was not affected by salt concentration, and slightly affected by heating. The effect of MSG on AN contents by Copper-salt method was shown higher than those by the Formol method and the TNBS method. The TNBS method was adaptable to measure the content of AN in fish sauce by this study.

  • The historical background of fish fermentation in Asia and other regions of the world is reviewed. The classification of fermented fish products in different regions is attempted with respect to the technology involved. The fermented fish products are largely divided into three groups; (1) high-salt, (2) low-salt, and (3) non-salt fermented. High-salt fermented products contain over 20% of salt and are represented by fish sauce, cured fish and fish paste. Low-salt fermented products contain 6-18% salt and are subdivided into lactic fermented products with added carbohydrate and acid pickling associated with low temperature. Non-salt fermented products are represented by the solid state bonito fermentation and some alkaline fermentation of flat fishes. The local names of the products in different regions are compared and classified accordingly. The microbial and biochemical changes during fish fermentation are considered in relation to the quality of the products, and their wholesomeness is reviewed.

  • This study was conducted to inhibit histamine formation in salt-fermented anchovy Engraulis japonicus fish sauce, by lowering the pH using 1% citric acid as food additive during the initial fermentation stage. The fish sauce samples were prepared with fresh anchovies used immediately after being caught (F), and left at ambient temperature for 4 h, and 24 h with 25% salt, 1% citric acid, and without citric acid for a 6-month fermentation period. The content of ammonia nitrogen, total nitrogen, and glutamic acid in fish sauce was unaffected by the addition of citric acid during the fermentation period. The histamine content of F and 4 h samples were 20.5-30.6 and 77.4-119.3 mg/kg, respectively. The histamine content of F and 4 h samples with 1% citric acid was 4.1-8.7 and 50.4-56.1 mg/kg, respectively. Furthermore, addition of citric acid did not inhibit histamine formation in 24 h sample that had lower freshness quality. Additionally, effective inhibition of histamine is observed during manufacturing of salt-fermented anchovy fish sauce on an industrial scale, suggesting that lowering the initial pH using 1% citric acid does not alter the taste and flavor of the fish sauce.

  • To develop a value-added anchovy Engraulis japonicus sauce, we examined processing conditions and quality characteristics of rapidly fermented, high purity anchovy sauce (RPAS) by adding 30% (w/w) intermediate salt-fermented anchovy material. RPAS had higher total nitrogen and amino nitrogen contents, and lower salinity than traditional anchovy sauce (TAS). The total amino acid contents of RPAS and TAS were 17,626.8 and 12,808.2 mg/100 g, respectively, and the major amino acids were alanine, glutamic acid, lysine, cystine, valine, and leucine. The histamine contents of RPAS and TAS were 12.6 and 25.2 mg/100 g, respectively, and the protease activity levels were 0.851 and 0.595 unit/mg, respectively. These results demonstrate that RPAS was more flavorful, and could shorten the salt-fermentation period by more than half compared to TAS, and can serve as a high-end fish sauce.

  • Soy sauce, a basic ingredient in Asian cuisine, is made of fermented soybeans, salt, water, and barley or wheat flour. The sensory characteristics of soy sauce are not only determined through its main ingredients but also by various flavor compounds produced during the fermentation process. This study was conducted to identify the sensory attributes of five different commercial soy sauce samples that differ in Meju types (traditional Meju or modified Meju) and usage types. Thirty three sensory attributes, including appearance (1), odor (16), flavor (14), and mouthfeel (2) attributes, were generated and evaluated by eight trained panelists. The collected data were analyzed by analysis of variance and principal component analysis. There were significant differences in the intensities of all sensory attributes among the soy sauce samples. Soy sauce made with traditional Meju had high intensity of fermented fish, beany, musty odors and salt, Cheonggukjang, fermented fish flavors. Whereas two soy sauces made with modified Meju were strong in alcohol, sweet, Doenjang, roasted soybean flavors. Two soy sauces for soup made with modified Meju had medium levels of briny, sulfury, fermented odors and bitter, chemical flavors and biting mouthfeel characteristic.

  • Qualities properties of fish sauce made jack mackerel (Trachurns japonicus) at different salt concentrations (25~35%) for 240 days at fermentation temperature ($25{\sim}55^{\circ}C$) were investigated. Total nitrogen content of the fish sauce made jack mackerel at 25% salt concentration after 240 day of fermentation was higher than those of 30%, 35% salt concentration. Total nitrogen content was increased under the same condition as fermentation temperature increased except at $55^{\circ}C$. Amino nitrogen contents at 25% salt concentration after 240 day of fermentation at 35, 45, $55^{\circ}C$ were 949.3, 812.8 and 834.4 mg/100 g, respectively. Those at 25, $55^{\circ}C$ fermentation temperature were 811.2 and 614.8 mg/100 g, respectively. The amino acid nitrogen content at 30 and 35% salt concentration ware lower than 20% salt concentration and that after 240 day of fermentation at $55^{\circ}C$ was lowest. The volatile basic nitrogen content increased during fermentation as fermentation temperature increased. However, increasing salt concentration controlled the formation of volatile basic nitrogen. Histamine content of samples fermented at $25{\sim}55^{\circ}C$ after 240 days were 9~20 mg/kg showing that it was not significantly different among salt concentration. The results indicated that the controlled salt concentration and fermentation temperature could be used as a successful process for fish sauce of jack mackerel as an unused resource.
