The principal objective of this study was to conduct a physiological evaluation of Korea Ginseng, Deoduk and Doragi pickles. Prior to the processing of the 3 kinds of pickles, total phenolic acid contents, lecithin oxidation inhibitory effect, SOD -linked activity and hydroxyl radical scavenging activity of Korea Ginseng, Deoduk and Doragi water extracts were assessed. After the processing of 3 kinds of pickles, we conduct a sensory evaluation and color values assessment. The total phenolic acid contents of Korea Ginseng, Deoduk and Doragi water extracts were $1.66{\sim}1.70mg/m{\ell}$, levels which were similar to that of tocopherol($1.81mg/m{\ell}$) but significantly lower than that of BHT($4.06mg/m{\ell}$)(p<0.05). The lecithin oxidation inhibitory effects of the Ginseng extract(98.86%) were similar to those of BHT(98.90%), but were significantly higher than those of Deoduk(35.70%), Doragi(78.07%) and tocopherol(65.91%). SOD-linked activity of Korea Ginseng water extract (42.58%) was similar to those of BHT(47.86%) and tocopherol(50.47%), but significantly higher than those of Deoduk (17.98%) and Doragi(20.75%). The hydroxyl radical scavenging activity of the Ginseng water extract(87.85%) was similar to that of BHT(8.58%), but significantly higher than that of Deoduk(79.51%), Doragi(77.62%) and tocopherol(78.95%). In the results of our sensory evaluations of the 3 kinds of pickles, the Ginseng pickle evidenced significantly lower acceptance scores in taste, color, flavor, texture, and overall quality. The luminance of the Ginseng pickle was significantly higher than the Deoduk pickles, the value of the Doragi pickle was significantly higher than those of the Ginseng and Deoduk pickles, and the b value of the Deoduk pickle was significantly higher than that of the Ginseng pickle.

The principal objective of this study was to conduct a physiological evaluation of Korean Ginseng pickles with added Chija and Omija pigment. Prior to the processing of 3 different colors of pickles, SOD-liked activity, hydroxyl radical scavenging activity, total phenolic acid contents, and lecithin oxidation inhibitory effects of Korean Ginseng, Chija and Omija water extracts were assessed. After processing the 3 colors of pickles, sensory evaluation and color values were conducted. SOD-liked activity of Korean Ginseng(42.58%) and Chija(41.88%) water extracts were similar to those of tocopherol(54.62%), but were significantly higher than those of Omija(29.01%). The hydroxyl radical scavenging activity of Ginseng water extract(87.85%) was similar to that of BHT(83.13%) and tocopherol(71.57%), but were significantly higher than those of Chija(68.01%) and Omija(37.15%). The total phenolic acid contents of Korean Ginseng, Chija, and Omija water extracts were measured at $1.01{\sim}1.66\;mg/m{\ell}$, levels similar to those of tocopherol($1.26\;mg/m{\ell}$) but significantly lower than that of BHT($3.89\;mg/m{\ell}$)(p<0.05). The lecithin oxidation inhibitory effects of Ginseng water extract(98.86%) was similar to that of BHT(92.82%) and tocopherol(89.13%), but was significantly higher than that of Chija(64.28%) and Omija (53.34%). With regard to the results of sensory evaluation for the 3 colors of Ginseng pickles, the color and overall quality of P2 were significantly higher than those of P1 and P3(p<0.05). With regard to luminance, P1 scored significantly higher than P2 and P3(p<0.05). The a value of P3 was significantly higher than that of P1 and P2, and the b values of P2 were significantly higher than those of P1 and P3.

The purpose of this study is to investigate the quality and sensory characteristics of ginseng Jeolim, or ginseng pickles. The moisture contents of ginseng pickles decreased significantly with increase in soy sauce and in storage period. The L-value of pickle solution decreased significantly with increase in soy sauce and in storage period while its a-value and b-value increased significantly with increase in soy sauce and in storage period. The salinity and sugar contents of pickle solution increased significantly with increase in soy sauce; however, they decreased with increase in storage period. The pH of pickle solution decreased significantly with increase in soy sauce and in storage period. As the results of acceptance test, apparence, flavor, taste, texture, and overall acceptance were higher in C3. In conclusion, ginseng Jeolim showed great preference with adding soy sauce, and the preference has increased with 20% of soy sauce added and 14 day storage period.

Western countries came to Asia aggressively in the early 1900s. Westerners who came to Korea at that time also had a various jobs with diplomats, missionaries, doctors, and so on. Korean diet was curious and shocking to foreigners in the early 1990s, so they made a record of the Korean diet. They thought Korea was peaceful, attractive and rich to eat. Koreans ate mainly rice and kimchi, a variety of grains, vegetables and bibimbap. Korea had a variety of meat and fish, seaweed, and herbs(ginseng). Foreigners said Koreans were greedy for food and ate a lot. Koreans ate basically a bowl of rice(bap), a bowl of soup(kuk), kimchi, soy sauce and other dishes. If Koreans wanted to set a table in abundance, they have meat soup(kuk) with meat and additional fish like as raw fish, dried fish, and boiled or fried fish. Korean people had a jangdokdae with Ongki(Earthen jar) where soy sauce(kanjang), soybean paste(doenjang), red pepper paste(kochujang), pickles (jang-achi) have been fermented. Foreigners felt the smell of lacquer tree and kimchi hung in the air from Korean people. While they were compared it to the smell of western rim cheese burger, they said Korea was a country with nasty smell in the feet. By the records of foreigners in the early 1900s, Korean's diets and image were appeared objectively.
