Abstract

Cold air drying was conducted on steamed chestnut-sweet potato to improve its quality, convenience, and preference as snack. Steamed sweet potato was dried from 10 to $25^{\circ}C$ for 48 hours, and moisture contents, colors, texture, and taste were evaluated. The lowest moisture content was 4.53% at $25^{\circ}C$. Lightness decreased while other color values (a, b, and ${\Delta}$E) increased with increasing drying temperature and drying time. Reducing sugar and soluble solid contents ranged from 93.22~190.35 mg/g and 17~60 $^{\circ}Brix$, respectively. The highest hardness of chestnut-sweet potato was 25.13 kgf/$cm^2$, and springiness and cohesiveness were 88.60, and 94.87%, respectively, when dried at $25^{\circ}C$ for 48 hours. Sensory evaluation score was highest at $20^{\circ}C$ for 24 hours. The optimum drying conditions were determined to be $19^{\circ}C$ and 39.5 hours by RSM(response surface methodology).

본 연구는 증절간 고구마 제조를 위하여 냉풍 건조 방법을 이용하여 건조 조건별 증절간 건조 고구마의 건조 특성, 물성 및 관능적 특성을 연구하였다. 건조 시 수분함량은 $25^{\circ}C$ 48시간에서 4.53%로 가장 낮은 수치를 보였고, 색차에서 건조 온도가 낮을수록, 건조 시간이 짧을수록 L값이 높아졌으며 a, b, ${\Delta}$E값은 건조 온도가 높을수록 건조 시간이 길어짐에 따라 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 가용성 고형분은 건조 조건별로 17~60.33 $^{\circ}Brix$의 범위를 나타내었고, 환원당은 93.22~190.35 mg/g 범위를 나타내었으며, 물성 측정에서 경도는 $25^{\circ}C$ 48시간 25.13 kgf /$cm^2$ 가장 높은 수치를 나타내었으며, 탄성과 응집성은 88.60, 94.87%로 가장 높은 수치를 나타내었다. 관능 평가에서 밤고구마는 $20^{\circ}C$ 40시간에서 색, 향미, 맛, 조직감, 전반적인 기호도에서 가장 높은 평가치를 나타내었으며, 이때 수분함량 10~13% 내외로서 미생물의 증식을 억제할 수 있는 수분함량의 범위이며, 저장성의 향상도 기대할 수 있을 것으로 생각된다. 반응표면분석을 통한 증절간 고구마의 최적 건조 조건을 예측한 결과, 건조 온도 $19^{\circ}C$, 건조시간 39.5 hr으로 예측되었다.
