In this study, physio-chemical, mechanical, and sensory characteristics of Tofu containing 0, 0.5, 1.0, and 2.0% Adenophora remotiflora powder were examined. In addition, we examined the potential of utilizing Adenophora remotiflora powder as a functional food material by estimating total phenol contents, electron-donating abilities, and hydroxyl radical scavenging activities of the hot water and ethanol extracts of Adenophora remotiflora powder in the range from 0~2.0%. The total phenol content of the ethanol extracts of Adenophora remotiflora powder was 487.93μg/mL while the that of the water extract of Adenophora remotiflora powder was 403.70μ/mL. The electron-donating abilities of the ethanol and water extracts of Adenophora remotiflora powder were 75.37 and 86.10%, respectively. The hydroxyl radical scavenging activities of the ethanol and water extracts of Adenophora remotiflora powder were 65.50 and 66.22%, respectively. We also evaluated the quality characteristics of Tofu containing Adenophora remotiflora powder. In the case of color values, as the level of Adenophora remotiflora powder increased, the values of L (lightness) and a (redness) decreased, whereas that of b (yellowness) increased. In the case of mechanical properties, as the level of Adenophora remotiflora powder increased, hardness, gumminess, and chewiness values increased (p〈0.05), whereas springiness and cohesiveness values decreased (p〈0.05). In the case of sensory evaluation, MPT1.0 scored significantly higher in color, flavor, tenderness, texture, and overall quality. To sum up, Tofu containing 1% Adenophora remotiflora powder showed the highest overall preference.
