Manufacturing method and ingredient ratio for young radish kimchi (yulmoo kimchi) and young radish watery kimchi (yulmoo mool-kimchi) were standardized from literatures. Ingredients having frequency of use greater than 50% were only used in the standardization process. Green onion, red pepper, red pepper powder, garlic, ginger, and anchovy juice were included in young radish kimchi. Green pepper, red pepper, garlic, ginger, and starch were included in young radish watery kimchi. The standardized ingredients ratio of young radish kimchi (yulmoo kimchi) on young radish 100 g was as follows: green onion 8.0$\pm$3.8, crushed garlic 2.9$\pm$1.3, crushed ginger 1.6$\pm$0.7, red pepper 7.0$\pm$1.7, red pepper powder 4.2$\pm$1.2, and anchovy juice 3.7$\pm$0.5. The standardized ingredients ratio of young radish watery kimchi (yulmoo mool-kimchi) on added water 100 mL was as follows: young radish 50.6:$\pm$10.8, crushed garlic 3.0$\pm$0.7, crushed ginger $1.5\pm$0, green onion 3.3$\pm$1.3, green pepper 3.3$\pm$1.9, red pepper 2.4$\pm$1.3, and starch $1.5\pm$0.6.

Effects of freeze-drying on microbiological and sensory characteristics of yulmoo-kimchi (leaf radish kimchi) were investigated. Freeze-dried yulmoo-kimchi was stored at 0, 10 or $25^{\circ}C$ for 60 days and rehydrated with water. Optimum rehydration time of freeze-dried yulmoo-kimchi was 2 hr. Number of lactic acid bacteria of freeze-dried, 10 days-stored, rehydrated yulmoo-kimchi decreased significantly (p<0.05) in comparison with that of reference sample (non-freeze-dried yulmoo-kimchi), while no significant changes were observed after 10 days. As storage temperature increased, number of lactic acid bacteria of 10 days-stored samples decreased. pH value slightly increased by freeze-drying, while it decreased gradually during 60 days of storage. Sensory properties of freeze-dried/rehydrated sample were slightly inferior to those of reference sample, but those were relatively good when the sample was evaluated solely. Overall acceptability of freeze-dried, $0^{\circ}C$-stored, rehydrated sample was significantly inferior to reference sample (p<0.05) and it gradually decreased as storage temperature increased. Between storage periods of 10 through 60 days, sensory properties of 0 and $10^{\circ}C$-stored sample slightly decreased, while those of $25^{\circ}C$-stored sample decreased markedly.

This study compared and analyzed the physiochemical and quality characteristics of young radish kimchi made with YR-FNC or YR-GC cultivated by organic farming as well as kimchi made with young radish cultivated by chemical composting/general farming (YR-Control). YR-Control showed higher contents of water and crude protein than YR-FNC and YR-GC kimchi but lower contents of crude ash, dietary fiber, and vitamin C. YR-FNC and YR-GC kimchi also showed higher contents of P and Cu than YR-Control but lower contents of N, K, Ca, Mg, Fe, and Zn. YR-Control fermentation progressed faster than that of YR-FNC or YR-GC after 24 days, and YR-Control more rapidly reached an appropriate pH. On the other hand, YR-FNC and YR-GC kimchi fermentation progressed slow and did not reach a pH level below 5.3. For period of fermentation, YR-Control and YR-FNC kimchi showed no significant difference in reducing sugar content, whereas that of YR-GC kimchi decreased significantly after 24 days of fermentation (P<0.002). YR-FNC and YR-GC kimchi showed 1.5~3 times higher total polyphenol and flavonoid contents than YR-Control at the beginning of fermentation, whereas YR-Control and YR-FNC kimchi showed a significant increase in total polyphenol and flavonoid contents during the fermentation period. By day 7 of fermentation, YR-FNC kimchi showed higher contents of lactic acid bacteria and total microbes than YR-Control. In the sensory evaluation, YR-FNC and YR-GC kimchi showed higher preference values than YR-Control. Therefore, kimchi made from young radish cultivated by organic farming has a longer freshness period than control kimchi and is characterized by excellent sensory quality, increased physiological contents, and improved beneficial health effects.

Yulmoo Mul-kimchi was prepared by fermentation of the mixture of 1 part of leafy radish and 2.75 parts of water. It is thought that during the kimchi fermentation both the biosynthesis and destruction of ascorbic acid occurred at the same time. So the ascorbic acid content in Kimchi broth was strongly influenced by the environment of the processing period. In the present studies, an attempt had been made to elucidate the effect of water quality on the content of ascorbic acid and the population change of microorganism during Mul-kimchi fermentation. Five kinds of water such as tap water, an underground water, one commercially available processed water, distilled water and triply distilled water were examined. Nevertheless there were no differences in the population of microorganism and the pattern of acid formation among the five different kind of waters, a large variation of ascorbic acid content was observed. The ascorbic acid content of Kimchi prepared with triply distilled water showed the highest of 7.2 mg% in contrast to 3.37 mg% in tap water kimchi, and 5.72 mg% in the kimchi using underground water which has relatively high concentration of Ca. These results suggested that pure water free of metal ions might prevent the destruction of ascorbic acid during the fermentation. The considerable amount of ascorbic acid in the Kimchi with underground water might be due to Ca ion in the water.
