This study aimed to provide an accurate estimate of sodium intake from jangajji by examining the changes in sodium content according to the type of jangajji and the length of storage period, specifically differentiating between the solid ingredients and the seasoning liquid. It focused on six types of jangajji: chili pepper, perilla leaf, onion, radish, garlic scape, and cucumber. The sodium content in the solid ingredients and the seasoning was measured using a salinometer and ICP-AES. The results indicated that across all types of jangajji, the seasoning liquid consistently contained significantly higher levels of sodium than the solid ingredients. When comparing the sodium content measured by ICP-AES with that from a salinometer, the salinometer readings were significantly lower for both the solid ingredients and the seasoning liquid in all types of jangajji. Additionally, when comparing the sodium content of the solid ingredients with that listed in the nation’s representative nutritional databases, a substantial discrepancy was noted, with some cases potentially overstating the actual sodium intake from jangajji. Overall, this study suggests that an urgent review should be conducted to identify and resolve the causes of such discrepancies and accurately estimate the actual sodium intake from jangajji.
In this study, pH, oBrix, salt concentration, sodium content, color, hardness, and sensory evaluations were measured during storage at low temperatures for 21 days after making tongue sole Jangajji with different types of Gochujang sauces. The pH was higher than those of samples not containing Maesil fermented liquor at all storage periods. The oBrix of the Maesil fermented liquor added samples was higher than that of the samples not added at the early stages of storage. On the other hand, there was no significant difference between the samples with and without Maesil fermented liquor at the later stages of storage. The sodium content was lower than that of the samples not containing Maesil fermented liquor. The lightness (L) was lower in the early stages of storage than those of the Maesil fermented liquor. In the late stage of storage, however, the lightness was higher than those of the samples not containing Maesil fermented liquor. The redness (a) of the GRWO sample group showed the highest value at all storage periods compared to the other sample groups. The yellowness (b) of the GRWO sample group was high at the early stages of storage. On the 21st day of storage, however, the GRW sample group was significantly higher (p<0.01). The hardness results showed that the value of the later storage period was lower than that at the initial storage stage. The sensory evaluation showed that the Maesil fermented liquor reduced the spicy, salty, bitter, and unpleasant taste. As a result of the acceptance test, the GRWO and GRW samples were evaluated as the acceptance group with color, aroma, texture and overall acceptability compared to the brown rice Gochujang sample group.
This study was investigated Quality characteristic of “pickled garlic shoots” manufactured using Vacuum impregnation (VI) and Pressure impregnation (PI) technology. Pickled garlic shoots were manufactured by impregnation solution which concentration were dark soy sauce (39.5 %), apple vinegar (39.5 %), brown sugar (19.8 %), soju (1.2 %). Pressure Impregnation carried out 30 Mpa for 5min or Vacuum Impregnation carried out 360 mmHg for 5min, analyzed treated garlic shoots properties. Impregnation condition were chosen by pre-test (Vacuum Impregnation: 160, 360, 560, 680 mmHg, Pressure Impregnation: 40 MPa, 60 MPa, 80 MPa, 100 MPa). Quality characteristics were pH, Brix, salinity, acidity, color, texture and sensory evaluation. In results of quality characteristics, brix, salinity, sensory evaluation were significantly difference between Pressure Impregnation, Vacuum impregnation and Control. According to sensory evaluation, which parameter were taste, flavor, mouthfeel and overall acceptability, Pressure impregnation were scored highest and Vacuum impregnation were second. In the texture analyze, Hardness of “pickled garlic shoots” which were manufactured using Impregnation technology were 4.3 × 105±784.271 N/m2. This was possible to manufacture “pickled garlic shoots” in a short time which were Universal Design food (UDF) 1 class.
