Effect of Storage Period of Rice on Quality of Rice Added Yogurt

쌀의 저장기간이 쌀 첨가 요구르트의 품질에 미치는 영향

The curd yogurt was prepared from milk added with skim milk powder or three Tongil rices of different storage period. The effect of storage period of rice on acid production by lactic acid bacteria in milk containing rice of 2%(w/v) was investigated. The effect of storage period of rice on quality of curd yogurt(sensory property, viscosity and keeping quality) was also examined. Addition of rice stimulated acid production by lactic acid bacteria more than control(milk yogurt). Storage period of rice did not significantly affect acid production by lactic acid bacteria though stimulating effect of rice on acid production was slightly different among species. Sensory property of curd yogurt added with rice was not significantly affected by storage period of rice. Apparent viscosity of curd yogurt added with rice increased in proportion to storage period of rice. Curd yogurt showed characteristics of thixotropic flow. When curd yogurt added with rice was kept at $5^{\circ}C$ for 15 days, its keeping quality was relatively good and was not markedly affected by storage period of rice.

본 연구에서는 우유에 탈지분유 또는 저장기간이 다른 3종의 통일벼(86년산, 88년산, 89년산)를 각각 2%(w/v) 첨가하고 젖산균(Lactobacillus 4종, Leuconostoc 1종)으로 발효하여 커드상의 요구르트를 만든 후, 저장기간이 다른 쌀의 첨가가 젖산균의 산생성과 커드상 요구르트의 품질(관능성, 점도, 저장성)에 미치는 영향을 조사하였다. 쌀의 첨가로 젖산균의 산생성이 대조군(우유로만 만든 요구르트)보다 촉진되었는데, 젖산균의 종(種)에 따라 다소 차이는 있으나 쌀에 의한 젖산균의 산생성 촉진효과는 쌀의 저장기간에 의하여 현저한 영향을 받지 않았다. 관능검사의 결과를 보면 우유에 첨가된 쌀은 저장기간이 다르더라도 요구르트의 관능성에 현저한 영향을 미치지 않았다. 점도 측정의 결과를 보면 쌀의 저장기간이 경과할수록 쌀 첨가 요구르트의 점도가 증가하였으며, 커드상 요구르트는 thixotropic flow의 특성을 나타냈다. $5^{\circ}C$에서 15일간 보존된 쌀 첨가 요구르트의 저장성은 첨가된 쌀의 저장기간에 관계없이 우수하였다.
