초록

본 연구에서는 냉동형 간편편이식 콩나물의 제품 개발을 위하여 냉동 콩나물의 품질을 개선하고자 데친 콩나물의 냉동속도 및 해동속도에 따른 콩나물의 물리적 품질 특성을 비교하였다. 본 실험에서는 과열증기 가열장치로 데치기 한 콩나물을 강제송풍식 냉동기나 자연대류식 냉동기에서 냉동한 후, 냉동 저장한 콩나물을 전자레인지(출력강도 0, 400, 800 및 1,000 W)에서 시료의 중심부 온도가 $75^{\circ}C$에 도달할 때까지 해동 및 조리하였다. 분석 결과, 콩나물의 냉동속도는 강제송풍식 냉동을 하는 것이 자연대류식 냉동을 하는 것 보다 4배 정도 빨랐으며, 해동시간은 마이크로 웨이브 세기에 따라 단축되었다. 냉 해동한 콩나물의 수분함량은 자연대류식 냉동을 한 후 1,000 W로 해동한 콩나물의 경우 수분손실이 가장 많은 것으로 나타났다. 콩나물의 탄력성은 모든 조건에서 감소하는 경향을 보였으나, 조직의 경도는 강제송풍식 냉동 후 1,000 W에서 해동한 콩나물만 대조군에 비해 높게 나타났다. 현미경 관찰에서는 콩나물을 냉동하면 관다발과 피층의 세포들이 파괴되는 현상이 나타났으며, 냉동 시간과 해동 시간이 길어질수록 그 정도가 더 심하게 나타났다. 냉 해동 콩나물의 품질변화를 전반적으로 비교하였을 때 냉동 속도가 빠르고, 해동 시 전자레인지의 출력이 높을수록 대조구와 비교하여 가장 변화가 적은 것으로 나타났다. 실험결과, 콩나물의 냉해동 속도는 냉동 콩나물의 물리적 품질 변화에 주요한 영향을 미치며, 이러한 냉해동 조건의 조절을 통하여 냉동 콩나물의 품질이 개선된 가공품의 개발이 가능할 것이다. 또한, 이러한 가공 조건들은 다양한 발아식품의 냉동제품 개발의 가공 요인으로도 적용할 수 있을 것으로 판단된다. 그러나 냉동 콩나물의 품질 개선에 관한 연구는 가공조건에 따른 영양학적 품질에 관한 추가 연구를 통하여 물리적, 영양학적으로 우수한 품질의 가공품 개발이 가능할 것으로 판단된다.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of freezing and thawing rate on the physical properties of soybean sprouts to improve the quality of processed soybean sprouts during distribution and storage. Cooked soybean sprouts were frozen by air-blast freezing (ABF) system at $-45^{\circ}C$ or natural air convection freezing (NCF) system at $-24^{\circ}C$, then thawed using microwave oven by varying output power (0, 400, 800 and 1,000 W) until $75^{\circ}C$. The quality of soybean sprouts was measured by the water content, hardness and springiness. In addition, the internal microstructure of soybean sprouts was observed by optical microscope. For results, water content of soybean sprouts thawed by 1,000 W in a microwave showed the lowest value after natural air convection freezing. Springiness of soybean sprouts thawed by all amounts of output power was decreased in comparison with control. Hardness was increased only in soybean sprouts thawed by 1,000 W after air-blast freezing. However the gaps between springiness and hardness were relatively small with control at 1,000 W thawing, after air-blast freezing. Internal microstructure of the soybean sprouts was more damaged as freezing and thawing time were increased. In conclusion, high freezing and thawing rate might improves the quality of soy bean sprout, and IQF freezing and 1,000 W of microwave thawing appears to be the optimum condition for frozen HMR production. From the results freezing and thawing process parameters might can be use as quality control parameters as various type of sprout products processing.
