Abstract

This study investigated the possibility of usage of freeze-dried ingredients for the preparation of Nabak kimchi. The quality characteristics of Nabak kimchi using freeze-dried ingredients (radish, kimchi cabbage, green onion, garlic and ginger) were monitored during storage at $4^{\circ}C$. The initial pH of Nabak kimchi was 5.76~5.93, however, it decreased significantly over increasing storage periods (p<0.05). The titratable acidity of Nabak kimchi increased during storage, reaching 0.43~1.08%. Among the freeze-dried samples, those treated with freeze-dried radish and minor ingredients showed lower titratable acidity than that of the control. The initial number of total aerobic and lactic acid bacteria were 5.57~6.25, and 5.52~6.24 log CFU/g, respectively. After 28 days, the population of total aerobic and lactic acid bacteria in the raw ingredients and freeze-dried minor ingredients was less than 8.0 log CFU/g, but more than 9.0 log CFU/g in other samples. Yeasts and molds in Nabak kimchi were detected up to 2~3 log CFU/g, but coliforms were not detected in all samples during storage. The score of firmness and overall acceptability in the control, raw ingredients and freeze-dried minor ingredients were significantly higher than others (p<0.05). These results indicated that freeze-dried ingredients, such as green onion, garlic, and ginger, can be used in kimchi and would delay microbial growth and extend the shelf-life of kimchi without any deduction of sensory quality.

동결건조된 원부재료(무, 배추, 쪽파, 마늘, 생강)를 이용하여 나박김치를 제조한 다음 $4^{\circ}C$에서 28일간 저장하며 이화학적 및 미생물학적 특성과 관능적 특성을 분석하였다. 나박김치의 제조 직후 pH는 5.76~5.93이었으며, 저장기간이 증가함에 따라 감소하였다. 산도는 저장기간이 경과 할수록 증가하였으며, 저장 28일차에 동결건조한 무 및 부재료 처리구(D)의 산도가 0.43%로 나타나 동결건조 원부재료 처리구(C), 생 원재료 및 동결건조 부재료 처리구(B)와 유의적인 차이가 확인되었다(p<0.05). 배추 및 무의 조직감은 나박김치의 저장기간 동안 동결건조한 시료에서 대조구(생원료)에 비해 유의적으로 낮게 나타났으며, 배추의 경우 저장기간이 증가함에 따라 조직감도 점차 증가하는 경향을 나타내었다(p<0.05). 나박김치의 제조 직후 일반세균 및 젖산균수는 생원료로 제조한 대조구에서 약 1 log CFU/g 수준 높게 확인되었으며, 그 차이는 저장 21일까지 유지되다가 저장 28일차에 동결건조한 무 및 부재료 처리구(7 log CFU/g)를 제외하고 모든 시료에서 약 8 log CFU/g 수준으로 나타났다. 효모 및 곰팡이수는 저장기간 동안 모든 시료에서 2~3 log CFU/g 수준을 유지하였으며, 대장균군의 경우 대조구 및 생원재료와 동결건조한 부재료 처리구를 제외한 모든 처리구에서 저장기간 동안 검출되지 않았다. 관능검사 결과, 생원재료를 사용한 대조구에 비해 동결 건조처리구에서 전반적으로 낮은 점수를 나타내 동결건조한 주재료는 나박김치의 관능적 품질이 저하시키지만 부재료(쪽파, 마늘, 생강)는 관능적 품질에 영향을 미치지 않는 것으로 나타나지 않았다. 따라서 동결건조된 부재료의 첨가는 미생물수가 감소될 뿐만 아니라 김치의 조직감과 관능적 품질을 저하시키지 않으므로 다양한 김치 제조 시 활용 가능성이 높으며 더불어 김치의 저장성을 연장하는 효과를 기대할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다.
