A survey on the preferences and notion about kimchi and kimchi products was conducted from july to october, 1999 to investigate basic information for increasing the consumption of kimchi for sale. 1,241 subjects of women and men aged 10 to 60 in Kyung-nam area participated in this survey. Most of the subjects made kimchi by themselves at home but this rate of making kimchi at home became lower than past, so increment of consumption of kimchi for sale will be expected in the future. When the people buy kimchi, they considered taste first, and then hygiene, nutrition in order. When they purchase kimchi, more men (69.1%) than women(56%) considered taste, but more women(36.1%) than men(20.6%) considered hygiene first. Subjects aged 30 or older groups considered more the hygiene of kimchi than the subjects of $10{\sim}20$ age groups did.(p<0.05) And people of household income over 3 million wons considered more hygiene than people of below 1 million wons income group did. People liked manufactured kimchi the packed with whole or partly transparent material in order to observe the contents.(p<0.05) They liked better kimchi packed with bottle(46.1%) and vinyl(39.6%) than plastic(14.3%) and this tendency was more in the subjects of women(49.8%) and over 30 age groups.(p<0.05) They prefered $200{\sim}500g$ packing unit of kimchi whether the family size were big or small. Among the processed kimchi products, men liked better a rice covered up with kimchi, a pot stew with kimchi or a soup with kimchi, On the other hand, women liked better a dumplings with kimchi, a grilled food with kimchi, a pizza with kimchi.(p<0.05) Subjects aged 10 to 20 years old liked all kinds of kimchi products, but people aged 40 or older disliked them.(p<0.001)

배추의 윤송(輪送)과 가공상(加工上)의 편의(便宜)를 위하여 염농도별(鹽濃度別) 절임 조건(條件)을 검토(檢討)하였으며, 절임배추로써 만든 김치의 숙성중(熟成中)의 ascorbic acid와riboflavin의 함량변화(含量變化)를 측정한 결과(結果)는 다음과 같이 요약(要約)된다. 1. 생배추를 10, 20 및 25%의 소금물에 각각 24 시간 절였을 때 부피는 62${\sim}$65 %, 무게는 15${\sim}$42%가 감소(減少)하였 다. 2. 각각의 소금물농도로 절인 배추를 10일간 초겨울 외기온도(外氣溫度)에 저장(貯藏)하였을 때 riboflavin 함량(含量)의 감소(滅少)는 없었으나 ascorbic acid 함량(含量)은 1/3도 감소(滅少)하였다. 3. 절임 저장기간(貯藏期間)에 따른 김치 제조(製造)시 절인 즉시 담근 김치는 저장기간(貯藏期間)이 10일째의 것에 비(比)하여 riboflavin 함량변화(含量變化)는 별로 없었으나, ascorbic acid는 저장기간(貯藏期間)이 긴 것일수록 함량(含量)이 낮았다. 4. 김치의 관능검사(官能檢査) 결과(結果), 절임저장배추를 사용(使用)하여 김치를 담그면 제조 첫 날의 맛에는 차이가 없으나 발효기간(醱酵期間)이 길어짐에 따라 맛이 떨어졌다.

김치숙성도를 객관적으로 평가하기 위하여 배추김치, 깍두기, 오이김치 및 호남식 매운김치를 시료로 $25^{\circ}C$와 $4^{\circ}C$ 에서 저장하면서 pH, total acidity, volatile acidity, resazurin value, sensory value, volatile basic nitrogen, Vitamin C와 NaCl를 분석하고 임상용 test봉을 이용하여 glucose와 Nitrite를 정성분석 하였다. 김치숙성도에 따라 pH, Vit.C와 glucose는 감소하고 total 및 volatil acidity, resazurin value와 sensory sauer value는 증가하고 NaCl은 변함이 없었다. Nitrite는 산도가 높아질수록 감소하거나 사라지는 경향으로 나타났다. 김치숙성도에 따라 가장 뚜렷하게 변하는 인자는 pH, total acidity와 resazurin value로서 sensory value와 상관성이 모두 높았다. Resazurin test value는 김치 저장온도와 시료검액 회석농도에 따라 차이가 있었으므로 시료 검액을 2%와 4%로 고정하고 적숙기 핑가기준을 냉장저장 김치에선 각각 2점과 4점, 실온저장 김치에선 2% 검액으로 4점을 기준으로 하면 resazurin test 방법이 김치숙성도 신속검사법으로 활용할 수 있음을 확인할 수 있었다.

This studies were carried out to investigate the physiological characteristics of lactic acid bacteria related to kimchi fermentation. 157 strains of lactic acid bacteria were isolated from home-made kimchi of Taegu district. 144 strains of isolated lactic bacteria showed resistance to artifical gastric juice and bile. Among isolated strains, fifteen strains were selected according to the growth characteristics. The selected strains survived for 24 hours in artifical bile after incubation for 3 hours in artificial gastric jucie (pH 2.5). Especially, three strains such as B-10, K-2, and F-3, showed little viable cell change for 3 hrs incubation in artifical gastric juice. The selected strains showed low viability in artificial gastric juice but high in artifical bile. The selected strains also showed significantly antimicrobial activities to pathogens such as Listeria monocytogenes, Escherichia coli, Bacillus subtili, Staphylococcus aureus and Vibrio parahaemolyticus. The fifteen selected strains were identified as Lactobacillus plantarum, Lactobacillus sake and Leuconostoc mesenteroides.

This study was attempted to standardize preparation methods of Korean foods; Chigae (Stew) such as Deonjang chigae (soybean stew) and Kimchi chigae (Kimchi stew). We followed cooking methods by using cookbooks, food service operation recipes, materials distributed by commercial food restaurants from their own experimental kitchens, and home recipes. Before this recipes were standardized, we thoroughly analyzed and modified them. The total yield and portions were determined together with material weights and procedures. And we evaluated food made by standardized recipes for acceptability, by taste panels from Sookmyung Women＇s University. It concluded that yield volune for doenjang chigae and kimchi chigae after cooking for 10 persons was 3 kg, optimum service temperature was 7$0^{\circ}C$, preparation time was 50 minutes, service volumes by one person was 300 g. This presentantion for the above on food materials and material weights, preparation methods as well as cautions and references are attached in this research paper.

This study was conducted to provide data on awareness and use of traditional foods, suggesting the desirable ways to succeed and develop traditional foods, and the possible direction of policies and applications for food industry. The study also aimed to figure out awareness of traditional food and dietary life behaviors of married women in order to offer or draw attention to new information for better healthy life styles. Five hundred and ten married women in parts of Seoul and Kyongki area were surveyed to figure out their awareness and use of traditional foods including some of fermented foods, such as Kimchi, Doenjang(soybean paste), and Gochujang(hot pepper paste). The results were summarized as follows. First the overall satisfaction degree with traditional foods reached as high as 74.4%. They preferred traditional foods because they are healthy(38.8%), seasonally celebrated(29.9%), and well known for a variety of fermented foods(28%). Second, Kimchi, Doenjang and Gochujang, home-made or factory manufactured in an old-fashioned way, were preferred. Third, the most frequently cooked traditional foods were Kimchi Chigae and Doenjang Chigae. The most preferred cooking methods using Gochujang were Jorim(stewing) and Bokkeum(roasting). These results showed that Kimchi, Doenjang, and Gochujang were still used in cooking by married women in parts of Seoul and kyongki area, which says those are still the traditional foods most of women think as important and essential. The producers of traditional foods have to consider the safety and improvement of taste and quality of ingredients in addition to the convenience in cooking, More researches should be conducted to enhance these aspects and to develop functional foods to satisfy various needs of consumers and to improve their health.
