Abstract

This study investigated the effectsof whiteness and packing conditions on the quality characteristics of milled rice during storage at $25^{\circ}C$. Three kinds of packing materials (kraft paper sealed polyethylene and perforated polyethylene) were used to pack milled rice of different whiteness grades (36, 38, 40 and 42). The moisture content and weight of milled rice packed in kraft paper dropped very rapidly compared to values from milled rice packed in polyethylene because of high gas exchange through the paper. On the other hand, the increase in fat acidity of milled rice packed in kraft paper was less than that of milled rice packed in polyethylene because the moisture content of paper-packed rice fell rapidly. The overall quality of cooked rice rose with whiteness, and dropped with extended storage. The overall eating quality of milled rice paced in perforated polyethylene was bestwhen rice was prepared for the table after 8 weeks of storage.

본 연구에서는 백도 및 포장조건에 따른 저장 중 쌀의 품질특성을 구명하기 위하여 백도36, 38, 40 및 42의 4수준과 지대포장, 밀폐 PE포장 및 타공 PE포장의 포장조건 3수준에 대하여 8주간 저장하면서 품질 및 관능검사를 실시하였다. 지대포장과 타공 PE포장, 밀폐 PE포장 등 통기성이 높은 순서로 저장기간에 따라 함수율 및 중량감소가 심하였으며, 동할율도 많이 증가였으며, 지방산가 증가는 적었다. 또한, 백도별로는 함수율, 중량변화 및 동할율에서는 큰 차이가 없는 반면, 초기 백도가 낮을수록 저장기간에 따라 지방산가의 증가가 심하였다. 관능검사 결과, 백도가 높을수록 초기, 저장 4주, 8주후에도 전반적인 품질이 우수하였으며, 포장조건에 따라서는 타공 PE포장, 밀폐 PE포장, 지대포장순서이었다.
