Sensory and Physicochemical characteristics and Storage time of Daechu-Injeulmi added with various levels of jujube powder

대추가루를 첨가한 대추인절미의 관능적, 이화학적 특성과 저장성 연구

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of addition of jujube on lnjeulmi in storage. Jujube powder was added to lnjeulmi made from the steamed glutinous rice, glutinous rice flour and brown glutinous rice flour. As a result of the sensory evaluation, the more jujube is added, the stronger sweetness and the more bitterness is shown. The sweetness and bitterness, made from brown glutinous rice, of Deachu-Injeulmi added jujube powder is the highest, and the more jujubes are tasted. Tenderness and moistness of Deachu-Injeulmi is decreased in the order of Deachu-Injeulmi made from glutinous rice, brown glutinous rice, glutinous rice flour, tenderness and moistness is increased with less amount of jujube. Chewiness of Deachu-Injeulmi made brown glutinous rice flour is the highest and Deachu-Injeulmi made from glutinous rice is the most rough. Moisture content is decreased in the order of Daechu-Injeulmi from glutinous rice, glutinous rice flour, brown glutinous rice flour. The reducing sugar content about storage period of Daechu-Injeulmi is decreased in the order of glutinous rice, glutinous rice flour, brown glutinous rice flour, and it is dramatically reduced until 48 hours of storage. However, it is increased a little bit after 72 hours. The changes in degree of gelatinization by storage period is that it is rapidly reduced until 24 hours, and it is decreased in the order of glutinous rice, glutinous rice flour, brown glutinous rice flour. That is to say, the more jujube powder is added, the less change there is. Springiness and cohesiveness is decreased during storage. Chewiness and gumminess is higher with more jujube, and it is increased until 24hour of storage period, then it is decreased after 48 hours. Hardness of Daechu-Injeulmi made from glutinous rice flour is the highest and the more jujube is added. Hardness of Daechu-Injeulmi added jujube powder is decreased in the order of Daechu-Injeulmi of 2.5%, 10% and 7.5%. The more jujube is added, the less change of the hardness by the storage period Daechu-Injeulmi is observed, thus the speed of the retrogradation is getting slower.
