This study examined ways to improve the functional properties of commercial soy sauce using gelatin hydrolysates from the refiner discharge of Alaska pollock, Theragra chalcogramma. The total nitrogen content and pH of gelatin sauce prepared by dissolving the second-step gelatin hydrolysates (15 g), salt (20 g), sugar (5 g), glucose (2.5 g), inosine monophosphate (IMP) (0.5 g), black pepper (0.1 g), caramel powder (0.1 g), ginger powder (0.05 g), garlic powder (0.05 g), vinegar (3 mL), and fructose (3 mL) in water(100 mL) were 1.71% and 5.35, respectively. The results of a sensory evaluation indicated that when preparing blended soy sauce, the optimal blending ratio of gelatin sauce to commercial soy sauce was 20:80 (v/v). Because the total nitrogen content and pH of the blended soy sauce were 1.52% and 5.31, respectively, the blended soy sauce could be sold as a soy sauce. The oxidative property of the blended soy sauce was similar to that of 20 mM ascorbic acid, and its angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) -inhibiting activity was 1.5 mg/mL. The results suggest that the antioxidative and ACE-inhibiting activities of commercial soy sauce can be improved by blending gelatin sauce (20) with commercial soy sauce (80). The total amino acid content of the blended soy sauce was 9,107.3 mg/mL, which was higher than that (8,992.4 mg/100 mL) of commercial soy sauce. However, the taste value of the blended soy sauce was 415.8, which was lower than that (431.2) of commercial soy sauce.

The purpose of this study was to develop an excellent salad dressing using grape seed oil, which contains high levels of unsaturated fatty acids. First, a vinaigrette was made with grape seed oil and vinegar and divided into five portions. Then, five types of mirepoix au maigre ($M_1,M_2,M_3,M_4,M_5$) were made with apple, onion, carrot, garlic, tomato puree, and tomato ketchup by mixing in a main material vessel. The samples were then allowed to ripen for three days. The control group $M_1$ was named $GD_1$, and the experimental groups $M_2,\;M_3,\;M_4,\;and\;M_5$ were named $GD_2,\;GD_3,\;GD_4,\;and\;GD_5$. respectively. To measure receptiveness, a sensory test was conducted using a 7 point category scale. The test concentrated on flavor, taste, color, agreeability, aftertaste, and overall acceptability: the panel consisted of 15 subjects According to the results, $GD_4$ had the best flavor, color and agreeability. The samples with the most preferred taste and aftertaste were $GD_4\;and\;GD_5$. Between $GD_4\;and\;GD_5$, there were no noticeable differences in taste, aftertaste, or overall acceptability, but differences in color and agreeability did exist. Thus, $GD_4$ proved to be the most favorable product. To determine the best complementing vegetables for $GD_4$ yam($VE_1$), broccoli sprouts($VE_2$), mustard leaves($VE_3$), beet leaves($VE_4$), cucumber($VE_5$), and lettuce(VE6) were selected as samples, and a sensory test was conducted. Each vegetable has its own peculiarities. According to the results, $VE_2$ had the nicest vegetable fragrance recording the highest mean value. The vegetable with the most preferred taste, aftertaste, and agreeability were $VE_2\;and\;VE_6$. $VE_1\;and\;VE_6$ had the nicest color and contained the brightest color as well. The highest overall acceptability was awarded to $VE_2\;and\;VE_6$ and there was no remarkable difference between thorn at a level of 0.05. In conclusion, $VE_2\;and\;VE_6$ were the best complementing vegetables with grape seed oil dressing. However, to commercialize such a dressing, many follow-up studies must be conducted.

This study was reviewed the changes in main ingredients, seasonings and cooking methods of Tangpyeongchae in Korean cook books and literatures published from the 1700s to the 1960s. The first published books about Tangpyeongchae were in Kosasibijib and Kyongdojabji, written in 1783 and the late 1700s, respectively. Tangpyeongchae, a representative traditional Korean dish that was royal cuisine offered at ritual events in the Chosun Dynasty, was called Cheongpochae in the royal court. It was a dish made by mixing cheongpomuk (mung bean gel), meat, dropwort, mung bean sprout, egg strips and laver. This dish has been seasoned with vinegar, soy sauce, black pepper, garlic, green onion, red pepper, salt, sugar, sesame oil and sesame salt since the early 1900s. Dropwort, egg strips, laver, pine nut (powder), red pepper powder, and red pepper threads were used as garnishes. Tangpyeongchae was made by mixing cheongpomuk with other ingredients and seasonings until the late 1800s. Since the early 1900s Tangpyeongchae has been seasoned first with other ingredients and then mixed cheongpomuk.
