Purpose: This study investigated consumers' perception of food safety and risk from foodborne illness and consumption pattern of meat and processed meat products in Korea. Methods: A quantitative survey was performed by trained interviewers, surveying 1,500 adults who were randomly selected from six major provinces in Korea. Results: Most of the respondents reported foodborne illness risk related to the consumption of raw meat but not related to heated meat and processed meat products. As respondents perceived the risk of food poisoning from raw meat, the purchase and intake decreased (p<0.001). Most of the respondents considered a low possibility of foodborne illness at home. Seventy-seven percent of the respondents thought that bacteria and virus are the main causes of foodborne illness. Improper storage practice (40.7%) and unsafe food material (29.3%) were the main risk factors contributing to foodborne illness. Perception and practice of food safety was significantly different by the residency area. The most preferred meat, processed meat, and processed ground meat products were pork (58%), ham (31.1%), and pork cutlet (40.4%), respectively. The most preferred cooking method was roasting, regardless of the type of meat, but the second preference for cooking method was significantly affected by the type of meat (p<0.001): stir-fried pork, beef with seasoning, fried-chicken and boiled duck. Frequency of eating out was 0.75/day on weekdays and 0.78/day on weekends at the mainly Korean BBQ restaurant. Conclusion: The results of this study could be used to develop science-based education materials for consumer and the specific guideline of risk management of meat and processed meat products.

Quality changes of cooked meat products are dependent upon cooking temperature and heating methods. Pork ham is the most preferred pork dish using pork hams in South Korea although it is not suited to various cooking methods because its low fat content does not provide desirable physiochemical and sensory properties to consumers. Therefore, the objective of this study was to evaluate the effect of four different cooking methods on pork legs by comparing Ocoo, Sous-vide, steaming, and boiling technique at $80^{\circ}C$ and $100^{\circ}C$. Ultimately, the most effective cooking method and temperature to improve the quality of cooked pork hams was investigated. As the results of texture analysis, the samples cooked using Ocoo and Sous-vide methods showed higher springiness and cohesiveness than those using steaming and boiling methods. For the sensory evaluation, participants liked the hardness, juiciness, chewiness, tenderness of the samples using the OC method, resulting in the highest overall acceptance rate. The results of this study showed that using Ocoo or Sous-Vide cooking methods can improve the quality of cooked pork hams in both physicochemical and sensory properties.

To evaluate the effect of different cooking methods on the physicochemical quality and volatile organic compounds (VOC) of dairy beef round, twelve beef round pieces were divided into four groups: raw, boiling, microwave, and sous-vide. The sous-vide group had a higher pH than the boiling or microwave groups. The boiling group exhibited the highest shear force and CIE L^*, followed by the microwave and sous-vide groups (p<0.05). The sous-vide group received higher taste and tenderness scores from panelists (p<0.05) and showed significantly higher levels of aspartic and glutamic acids than the other groups. The sous-vide and microwave groups had the highest oleic acid and polyunsaturated fatty acid levels, respectively. The sous-vide group had significantly higher hypoxanthine and inosine levels than the other groups. However, the microwave group had higher inosine monophosphate levels than the other groups. The sous-vide group had a higher alcohol content, including 1-octen-3-ol, than the other groups. Octanal and nonanal were the most abundant aldehydes in all groups. (R)-(-)-14-methyl-8-hexadecyn-1-ol, p-cresol, and 1-tridecyne were used to distinguish the VOC for each group in the multivariate analysis. Sous-vide could be effective in increasing meat tenderness as well as taste-related free amino acid (aspartic acid and glutamic acid) and fatty acid (oleic acid) levels. Furthermore, specific VOC, including 1-octen-3-ol, 2-ethylhexanal ethylene glycol acetal, and 2-octen-1-ol, (E)-, could be potential markers for distinguishing sous-vide from other cooking methods. Further studies are required to understand the mechanisms underlying the predominant association of these VOC with the sous-vide cooking method.

The purpose of this study was to investigate satisfaction and preference for current military meal service and food behaviors and food habits of some military personnel in Chunchen and Wonju of the Kwangwon area. The results are as follows. In the anthropometric survey, average height of the subjects was 175.03 $\pm$ 5.30 cm, average weight was 69.15 $\pm$ 7.74 kg. As a result of surveying satisfaction in the current food service, an item high in satisfaction was adequacy of serving hours, whereas an item of low satisfaction was diversity of menu. The item of food service improvement needs of the subjects were in order more variety of menu, nutrition, preference, sanitation, cooking method. As a result of surveying eating behavior of the subjects, most items were high medium response. They preferred soju and relish and also they liked the bokkum cooking method. As a result of surveying food habits of the subjects, items of good habits were regularity of meals, marginal meals, diversity of food intake, dairy and dairy products, avoiding too exciting meals and natural food diet; whereas, items of bad habits were fast food intake, alcohol, smoking, carbonated and caffeine beverages, skipping breakfast. snacks, fatty food intake, yellow or green vegetable intake and fruit and seaweed intake. Following is the result of a survey on the preference of meals by cooking method serving the current military meal service. They liked one-dish meals such as Bokkeumbap, Bibimbap, Tteokguk, whereas, they disliked curryrice, Jajangbap. In case of soup, they liked soup made from meat better than vegetable soup or soup made with fish. Also they liked pot stem better than soup. Generally they liked meals containing meat in most cooking methods. These results suggest that continuous and practical nutrition education to change food habits in military life are necessary to Prevent chronic disease with increasing age.

This study was carried out to investigate the effect of curing method(tumbling and immersion) and curing time (10 min to 48 hrs) on pH, color, product yield, cooking yield, water holding capacity, shear force, and sensory evaluation of cured pork meat with soy sauce. Curing method had an effective on color of cured meat(before cooking), Meats were tumbled for 30 min, followed by 24 hr and 48 hr delay period showed higher lightness than meat immersed for 24 and 48 hrs, respectively. Tumbling processing improved product yield and cooking yield as compared to immersion counterpart. Therefore, tumbled meat had significantly greater product yield(p <0.05) during working time for 30 min. Increasing curing time improved water holding capacity and tenderness. Although curing time had no influence on sensory evaluation, tumbling processing improved sensory evaluation of texture, juiciness, and overall acceptability fer cured pork meat with soy sauce, as compared to immersion counterpart.

This study was performed to provide basic data on sous-vided beef sirloin by comparing its water content, color, brightness, number of microorganism, mechanical quality characteristic test, and sensory test with a control group that was cooked using a traditional preparation method. There were no significant pH difference but water content, brightness, yellowness, and springiness were higher for the sous-vided beef sirloin, however, the sous-vided beef sirloin had less redness, hardness, and number of microorganism. Although sous-vided beef sirloin required a longer cooking time, it was softer and had a higher springiness. Generally, the sous-vided beef sirloin had a showed longer storage period and better evaluation than traditionally cooked beef sirloin in the sensory test. As a result, sous-vided beef sirloin is expected to have several merits over traditional preparation methods.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the Jorim of meat and poultry in Korean modern cookbooks. Jorim is a traditional Korean method of braising meat and poultry with soy sauce or gochujang. This study evaluated jorim in 10 books published in Korea from the end of 1800 to 1987 and to develop cooking models of beef jorim, pork jorim, and chicken jorim. The main ingredients in the jorim were beef, pork, chicken and pheasant. Other ingredients in the jorim included pine nuts, beef, eggs, radishes, bean sprouts, onions, bamboo shoots and pepper. In Sieuijeanseo, which was published at the end of the nineteenth century, the method called for braising meat directly in soy sauce. However, other modern cookbooks suggested boiling the meat prior to braising. Despite jorim being a popular sub-dish in Korea, there has been a decrease in the varieties available.
