The purpose of this study was to evaluate sensory characteristics, and to investigate nutrients and taste compounds in sauce made with shrimp or crab. Shrimp sauce fumed out to have better appearance, color, flavor and texture, and the taste of crab sauce was more excellent. In three kinds of shrimp sauces made with different thickeners, sauces used with rice and roux were evaluated to have a good taste and flavor. The major amino acids were -aminobutyric acid, alanine, ${\alpha}$-aminoadipic acid and citruline in shrimp sauce, and taurine, alanine, ${\alpha}$-aminoadipic acid and citruline in crab sauce. The major fatty acids of both samples were palmitic acid and oleic acid, and also palmitoleic acid and linoleic acid were much detected in shrimp and crab sauce. The content of crude protein was 1.62∼2.44%, and that of crude lipid was 0.92∼1.52% in the two sauces. The major minerals were potassium and sodium in shrimp and crab sauce.

This study optimized the mixing ratios of seafood sauce with blue crab for maximal sensory attributes using a response surface methodology with central composite design. It evaluated sensory appeal, nutritional value, and some rheological properties. The optimal formulation appeared to be 252 g of tomato paste, 78 g of chopped garlic, and 519 g of blue crab block; this ratio resulted in a predicted sensory score of 5.7 (on a 7-point scale) for overall acceptability. Addition of blue crab block increased moisture, ash, and protein contents in various sauces, but fat contents were similar in every sauce. Major free amino acids such as glutamic acid, phospho serine, asparagine, and arginine composed about $60\%$ of the total amino acid content. Standard and optimized sauces were red and light yellow, and those color values were significantly higher than in American-style sauces. Optimal viscosity was half the value of American-style sauces; more blue crab block added to the sauce resulted in lower viscosity. Adding this sauce to seafood dishes will likely aid development of flavoring substances.

The moisture contained in conventionally extracted red crab shell samples was lower than than in samples extracted using high pressure. In contrast, ash content increased as the extraction time increased and displayed no significant variation in high pressure extraction. Extraction time was influential, with lower lightness (L-value) being obtained in samples extracted at high pressure as compared to traditional extraction. However, large variation in a- and b-values resulted from traditional extraction. For both traditional and high pressure extraction increases in pH, salinity and saccharide content were noted with increasing extraction time, but these parameters did not vary substantially in red crab shell extracted at high pressure. The mineral content in samples extracted by high pressure was higher than in traditionally extracted samples. The mineral content increased with time, with marginally higher contents of essential amino acids and flavor enhancing amino acids noted following high pressure extraction. The contents of the flavor enhancing amino acids increased from 30?60 min, thereafter decreasing. Assessment of consumer acceptance revealed that, while traditionally manufactured red crab sauce was popular, sauce manufactured using a 60 min high pressure extraction was preferred. Extending the high pressure extraction time to 75 min produced a less sensory acceptable product, due to higher mineral and protein levels.

An interest in traditional foods is growing in an effort to preserve dietary culture in Korea. Blue crab preserved in soy sauce, one of the Korean traditional foods is especially popular in summer and is produced in the Jeollanam-do province, Korea. However, there has been no report on processing of the blue crab. The objective of this research is to investigate changes of nutritional composition in blue crab preserved in soy sauce. Moisture content was a little higher in FBC (Fresh Blue Crab) than in PBC (Preserved Blue Crab) and ash content was greatly higher in PBC than in FBC. Salt content was 1.50% in FBC and 7.89% in PBC. The amount of free sugars in FBC was very low but was increased after preserved using soy sauce, especially of fructose significantly. After preserved, the pH of blue crab was also increased. The contents of most total amino acids in blue crab were decreased after preserved, but free amino acids were increased. Major total amino acids were glutamic acid, arginine and aspartic acid in two samples and major free amino acids were arginine, proline and alanine. Fatty acid content was decreased after preserved and major fatty acids were palmitic acid (16 : 0), oleic acid (18 : l), eicosapentaenoic acid (20 : 5) and docosahexaenoic acid (22 : 6).

In this study, we evaluated physicochemical properties and sensory characteristics of teriyaki sauce made by using the shell, the byproduct of red snow crab. Moisture content was the highest in fried FRC and the lowest in immersed SOC- while viscosity exhibited contrary tendency. The pH was the highest in dried DRC and the lowest in untreated RAC. Chromaticity was the highest in fried FRC for L, a, and b values altogether. Such result was considered attributable to elution of astaxanthin, a fat-soluble dye protein, which affected chromaticity while it underwent pre-treatment by being fried. Salinity was the highest in fried FRC and lowest in immersed SOC. Available solid contents exhibited contrary tendency. The total free amino acid content was the highest in immersed SOC and the lowest in untreated RAC. Contents of essential amino acids and tasty amino acids, the free amino acids, were the highest in SOC, suggesting that savory taste manifested the most noticeably among specimens treated differently by varying methods. The results of preference test showed that SOC, which showed the highest free amino acid content, also showed the highest preference in terms of outwards appearance, fragrance, taste, texture, and overall items of preference. Those results suggested that the immersion of red snow crab shell increased elution of available solid content and tasty components, influencing the preference of overall taste of teriyaki sauce positively, concerning pre-treatment methods. Based on overall results of the experiment in this study, pre-treatment involving immersion would lead to production of teriyaki with excellent nutrition and sensory features in connection with the use of red snow crab shell for manufacturing teriyaki.

This study performed recognition and preference tests on hometown foods given to University students in NaePo province, which is in the northwest area of Chungnam, Korea. The results indicated that female students and people who majored in food science were less interested in hometown foods than male students or who are not majors in food science. Moreover, they preferred Korean-style foods to food from other countries. Mass media has aroused interest in hometown foods. However, hometown foods require standard recipes certain levers of autonomy for the population. Hometown foods are valuable and should be handed down the next generation through publicity. For example, Kkotgetang(blue crab soup) was the best known hometown foods followed by kkotgegang(fermented blue crab with sauce), saeujeot(salted and fermented shrimp), eorigul jeot(salted and fermented oyster with red pepper) in that orders. The most preferred food was kkokgetang(blue crab soup) followed by kkotgegang(fermented blue crab with sauce).

We explored preprocessing-mediated quality changes in red snow crab fish sauce. A control (C) group and groups treated with autolysis (A), boiling (B), enzymatic hydrolysis (E), and addition of Aspergillus oryzae (K) were formed. The titratable acidity of the K group increased with storage time, whereas that of groups C, A, B, and E decreased. The total and amino nitrogen contents initially increased on storage of all samples, but decreased in later periods. The total plate count (TPC) of the K group was initially 5.26 log CFU/mL and increased to 7.28 log CFU/mL at 3 months of storage. The TPCs of the C, A, B, and E groups were initially <5.00 log CFU/mL and decreased with storage. The lactic acid bacteria count of the K group was initially 4.80 log CFU/mL and increased until month 5 to approximately 6.06 log CFU/mL. The K group scored higher in terms of sensory attributes than the other groups and maintained marketable scores for all relevant properties (color, flavor, off-odor, and overall acceptance). Furthermore, the free amino acid content of the K group was the highest among all groups at approximately 3,000 mg per 100 g. These results suggest that K treatment may be beneficial in the preparation of fermented fish sauce.

This study investigated changes in the quality of fermented red snow crab Chionoecetes japonicus sauce with or without Aspergillus kawachii koji and added salt. Samples were divided into four groups depending on whether koji was added and the amount of salt: RC15, 15% added salt, no koji; RC20, 20% added salt, no koji; RK15, 15% salt plus 10% koji; and RK20, 20% salt plus 10% koji. The samples were fermented at 20±2℃ for 4 months. During the fermentation period, the moisture contents of the four types of sauce decreased while the crude ash and protein contents increased. The pH of the RK groups decreased and was lower than in the RC groups. The acidity of the RK groups increased and was higher than in the RC groups. Both the total nitrogen (TN) and amino nitrogen (AN) levels increased continuously and were higher in the RK groups than in the RC groups. The volatile basic nitrogen (VBN) content increased rapidly and was higher in the RC groups than in the RK groups. The color did not differ significantly among the four groups. The viable cell counts in the four groups increased and no coliforms were detected. The total free amino acid and glutamic acid contents were highest in the RK15 group and the main amino acids in RK15 were aspartic acid, glutamic acid, alanine, leucine, phenylalanine, and lysine. Overall acceptance was significantly higher for the RK groups than the RC groups and RK15 ranked highest among the four sauces. These results suggest that Aspergillus kawachii koji is beneficial for processing fish sauce made using red snow crab.

This study aims to provide basic data about the diversification and the development of sauces by making four kinds of Teriyaki sauce, and the findings are as follows. The satisfaction with Teriyaki sauce by age and cooking career and groups showed a significant difference in several items. According to the result of the preference analysis on professors and teachers, the preference for health/nutrition showed a significant difference; also, the result of the preference analysis on Teriyaki sauce ingredients among the culinary students showed a significant difference in awareness and health/nutrition. In addition, the result of the preference analysis on Teriyaki sauce ingredients among college students showed a significant difference in the order of taste, awareness, price, and health/nutrition. Lastly, the result of the preference analysis on Teriyaki sauce ingredients among all groups showed a significant difference in the order of awareness, price and health/nutrition. As the mindset that main ingredient of Teriyaki sauce is eel bone prevails and the sauce made by crab shells is highly preferred, sauces added with sea food products are considered to be possibly developed. The follow-up study will have to deal with a manufacturing method of sauce with high nutrition and economy efficiency resulting from cheap manufacturing unit price by making Teriyaki sauce with inedible but nutritions sea food products.
