Abstract

For standardization of quality and reduction of salt concentration of pickles manufactured in Folk Villages of Sunchang Region, the physicochemical characteristics of 90 pickles of 10 items were compared. Persimmon, garlic, cucumber, radish, Codonopsis lanceolata L., and Japanese apricot pickles were mixed with kochujang, perilla leaf pickle was mixed with soybean paste, cucumber pickle in wine cake was mixed with wine cake, and red pepper was mixed with soybean paste or soy sauce. Moisture contents, pH, and titratable acidities of pickles were various depend upon characteristics of materials. Sugar contents of pickles test,34 were ranged from $22.10{\pm}3.04$ (red pepper pickled with soy sauce) to $55.53{\pm}7.67\;^oBrix$ (garlic pickle), and sugar contents of pickles mixed with kochujang were higher than those of soybean paste or soy sauce. Salt concentration of pickles were ranged from $3.56{\pm}1.11$ (Japanese apricot) to $9.15{\pm}6.35%$ (red pepper pickled with soy sauce), and salt concentration of pickle mixed with soy sauce was the highest among the pickles tested. Total aerobic counts of pickles tested were similarly ranged from $5.62{\pm}0.10$ (red pepper pickled with soy sauce) to $6.83{\pm}0.55$ log CFU/g (perilla leaf pickled with soybean paste). These results indicate salt concentration and quality of pickles manufactured in Folk Villages of Sunchang region must be lowered and standardized, respectively.

전북 순창지역의 고추장민속마을에서 생산한 장아찌 제품의 품질을 균일화하기 위한 기초 연구로서 10품목의 장아찌 제품 90종을 수집하여 이화학적 특성을 비교하였다. 감, 마늘, 오이, 무, 더덕, 매실장아찌는 고추장으로 버무렸으며, 깻잎장아찌는 된장으로, 울외장아찌는 주박으로, 고추장아찌는 된장과 간장으로 버무렸다. 장아찌 제품의 수분 함량, pH 및 총산함량은 원료의 특성에 따라 차이가 있었다. 당도는 $22.10{\pm}3.04$(간장고추) - $55.53{\pm}7.67$(마늘장아찌) $^oBrix$로서 비교적 높았으며, 고추장으로 절임한 경우가 된장이나 간장 절임보다 높았다. 염도는 $3.56{\pm}1.11$(매실장아찌) - $9.15{\pm}6.35%$(간장고추)로서 매우 높았으며, 간장으로 절임한 제품에서 높았다. 경도는 제품에 따른 차이가 매우 컸으며, 총균수는 $5.62{\pm}0.10$(간장고추) - $6.83{\pm}0.55$ log CFU/g(된장깻잎)로서 비슷하였다. 결론적으로, 제품의 품질 균일화와 함께 염도가 높은 장아찌 제품들의 염도를 낮추는 제조 방법에 대한 연구의 필요성이 제기되었다.
