Improved Quality Characteristics of Yanggaeng Supplemented with Licorice Powder
The feasibility of incorporating licorice powder (LP) as a value-added food ingredient into convenient food products was investigated using yanggaeng as a model system. LP was incorporated into yanggaeng at amounts of 0, 2, 4, 6, and 8% (w/w) based on total weight of cooked white beans and LP. pH level decreased while moisture content and soluble solid content increased significantly with increasing levels of LP (P<0.05). In terms of color, lightness decreased while redness and yellowness increased significantly (P<0.05) with increasing levels of LP. Hardness also decreased significantly with higher amount of LP in the formulation (P<0.05). 2,2’-azino-bis-3-ethylbenzthiazoline-6-sulphonic acid (ABTS) and 1,1-diphenyl-1-picrylhydrazyl (DPPH) radical scavenging activities were significantly elevated by LP addition, and they increased significantly as LP concentration increased in the formulation (P<0.05). Finally, consumer acceptance test indicated that the highest levels of LP incorporation (8%) had an adverse effect on general consumer preferences. In contrast, yanggaeng with moderate levels of LP (2%) is recommended based on its overall scores to take advantage of the antioxidant properties of LP without sacrificing consumer acceptability.
