Abstract

This study was carried out to investigate commercialization of Kimchi made of cabbage (Brassica oleracea var. capitata L.) using pre-fermentation conditions. The pre-fermentation conditions were 0, 18, 24, and 28 h at $20^{\circ}C$, and then the samples were stored at $10^{\circ}C$ to assess changes in quality characteristics. A comparison of the quality characteristics during storage showed that PF24 (pre-fermented cabbage Kimchi during 24 h at $20^{\circ}C$) and PF28 (pre-fermented cabbage Kimchi during 28 h at $20^{\circ}C$) had pH 4.47 and pH 4.23 on the second day of storage, respectively. It was possible to shorten the fermentation time to less than that of PF0 (not pre-fermented cabbage Kimchi at $20^{\circ}C$), by approximately 3 days. Total acidity was 0.26 to 0.29% immediately after making the Kimchi. However, PF0, PF18 (pre-fermented cabbage Kimchi during 18 h at $20^{\circ}C$), PF24 and PF28 became well-fermented when they were stored for 8~14 days, 3~10 days or 2~3 days. The number of lactic acid bacteria increased with the passage of time in all treatment groups regardless of fermentation conditions. However, the longer pre-fermentation time became, the faster the number of lactic acid bacteria increased. Most samples showed similar results late in the storage period; 7.2~7.4 log CFU/mL. PF0 had the greatest volume change 2.1 times increase late in the storage period. The sensory evaluation showed significant differences for flavor, taste, and overall acceptability after a partial storage period. PF28 stored for 2~3 days showed excellent flavor, and PF24 and PF28 stored for 2~3 days showed the highest scores of 6.27 to 6.67. The PF24 and PF28 treated samples were appropriate for commercializing small packed cabbage Kimchi and for alleviating the expansion problem of the packing material. However, because mass commercial production requires a large number of samples to be used at once, the results should be assessed for industrial product development in the future.

본 연구는 소포장 양배추 김치의 품질특성에 미치는 전 발효조건의 영향을 살펴보고자 하였다. 양배추 김치 제조 후 $20^{\circ}C$에서 0, 18, 24, 28시간동안 전 발효기간을 거친 후 소포장한 양배추 김치를 각각 PF0, PF18, PF24, PF28이라 하고 $10^{\circ}C$ 저장기간 중 품질특성을 비교한 결과, PF24와 PF28의 pH은 저장 2일째에 pH 4.47과 pH 4.23을 나타내어 전 발효시키지 않았던 PF0보다 3일정도 숙성시간을 단축할 수 있었다. 총산도는 담금 직후 0.26-0.29%였으나 PF0의 경우 저장 8-14일, PF18은 3-10일, PF24와 PF28은 비슷하게 2-3일 저장 시에 잘 익은 김치가 되었다. 염도는 각 처리구와 시기별 큰 차이를 보이지 않았으나 전배양시간이 길었던 PF24와 PF28은 저장후기에 약간 증가하는 경향을 보였다. 젖산균은 전 발효조건과 상관없이 모든 처리구에서 시간이 지날수록 젖산균 수가 증가하였다. 그러나 전 발효시간을 길게 한 것일수록 젖산균수가 증가하는 속도는 더 빠르게 나타났으며 저장 후기에는 대부분 7.2-7.4 log CFU/mL로 비슷한 수준을 나타냈다. 전 발효에 따른 소포장 양배추 김치의 체적변화는 전 발효를 시키지 않았던 PF0가 저장 후기에 2.1배증가로 가장 큰 변화를 보였고 전 발효를 시켰던 시험군은 1.5-1.8배로 PF0보다 낮은 수준을 나타냈다. 관능특성은 전 발효 유무나 시간에 대한 색이나 질감의 유의적 차이는 없었으나 그 외 향, 맛, 종합적 기호도에서 일부 저장기간에 유의적 차이를 나타냈다. 향은 저장 2일과 3일에 PF28에서 우수하게 나타났고 맛은 PF24와 PF28에서 2-3일 저장했을 때 6.27-6.67로 높은 점수를 보였다. 연구결과를 종합하면, 잘 익은 소포장 양배추 김치를 상품화하고 포장재 팽창문제를 완화하는 조건으로 PF24나 PF28가 적절하다고 판단되나, 상업적 생산을 위한 대량생산은 한 번에 처리하는 시료의 양이 많기 때문에 향후 제품개발을 위해서 산업현장에서의 검토가 이루어져야 할 것이다.
