Quality and sensory characteristics of tofu prepared with concentrated to 8 oBrix deep ground sea-like water (SW) were investigated to check the availability for coagulants. The tofu was coagulated with three kinds of commercially coagulant, such as MgCl2, CaSO4 and glucono-δ-lactone. Different amounts of SW and soybean milk were added: SW-20 g/L, SW-25 g/L and SW-30 g/L. The moisture content and pH were significantly lower in which preparation with glucono-δ-lactone coagulated tofu, and others has not significantly difference each other. The mineral contents in the coagulant influenced the mineral content of the tofu, which contained larger quantities of major minerals. However, the mineral content of the tofu was not affected of the mineral concentration in the coagulant. The L and b values of the tofu prepared with SW were not significantly different. The hardness of the tofu prepared with the commercial coagulants was significantly lower than that of the tofu produced with the SW. The sensory property was lower when the hardness was lower and higher. In conclusion, the quality characteristics of SW-prepared tofu were not significantly different from those of the tofu prepared with the commercial coagulants, but the texture and the taste of the SW-prepared tofu were excellent.

The principal objective of this study was to determine the quality characteristics of a tofu (soybean curd) with added Lagocephalus lunaris powder (LLP). The moisture, crude ash, crude protein, and crude lipid contents of the used LLP were 6.20%, 1.04%, 74.55%, and 1.20%, respectively. The yield and turbidity of tofu increased according to the increase in the quantity of LLP, whereas the pH decreased with the increase in LLP. The L value decreased as the amount of LLP in the formulation increased, whereas the a and b values of the tofu increased. Furthermore, the hardness, chewiness, and brittleness significantly increased as the level of LLP increased. In terms of overall acceptability, the preferred tofu samples contained 0.5% LLP. These results suggest that the LLP can be applied to tofu (soybean curd) in order to achieve high quality and functionality.

떫은감 분말 첨가 두부의 수율, 품질 및 저장성에 응고제의 종류(magnesium chloride, calcium chloride, calcium sulfate, glucono--lactone)가 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. Glucono--lactone으로 응고시킨 두부가 가장 높은 수율, hardness, chewness, crispness, overall acceptability 및 가장 낮은 L값, b값, pH, 침지저장액 탁도, 총균수를

A new soybean variety, “Daol” was developed at the National Yeongnam Agricultural Experiment Station in 2002. It was selected from the cross Keunol//Josaengbaekjo/Keunol. The preliminary, advanced, and regional yield trials for evaluation and selection of

본 실험에서는 가공 두부를 천연항균소재인 자몽종자추출 물의 유도체에 침지 처리한 후 꺼내어 상온에서 저장하면서 가공 두부의 품질(총균수, 수분 함량, 조지방의 함량, 조단백의 함량, 표면색도)변화에 미치는 영향을 무처리 대조구와 비교하면서 조사하였다. 천연항균소재의 희석액에 침지처리한 가공두부는 대조구에 비하여 수분함량, 조단백 및 조지방 함량이 높게 나타났으며, 총균수는 천연항균소재 처리구의 증가폭이 무처리 대조구에 비해 감소하는 경향으로 나타
