The effect of various levels of perilla seed powder on physicochemical, microbiological, and sensory characteristics of Puchukimchi during fermentation was investigated. Puchukimchi is a kind of korean kimchi made with Leek (Allium odorum L.). In a laboratory model of Puchukimchi made with various levels (0, 1, 2, 3, 5%) of perilla seed powder fermentated at 10$^{\circ}C$ up to 45 days. As a fermentation progressed, the initial high decrease in pH has been retarded in all the treatments, of which the delaying extent was noted from Puchukimchi made with perilla seed powder. The pH dropped with accumulation of total acidity. The total vitamin C content increased sharply at the palatable period of Puchukimchi during initial fermentation and then, especially from the 8th-day, gradually decreased later following sigmoidal changing pattern. And the total vitamin C content was the highest in the Puchukimchi made with 5% perilla seed powder. The lactic acid bacteria count increased remarkably and then decreased gradually after optimum ripening period, i.e., the palatable period of Puchukimchi during fermentation. During the early stage of fermentation, sensory evaluation showed the higher scores on the overall taste of Puchukimchi made with 3, 5% on the 2nd-day, 1, 2% on the 5th-day of fermentation. However, the trend of acceptability has been reversed by the Puchukimchi made with little amount of perilla seed powder, more notably 2% at the later stage of fermentation.

This study was undertaden to investigate the effect of salted anchovy during Puchukimchi fermentation, Puchukimchi is a kind of Korean kimchi made with Puchu(Allium odorum L.). For this purpose, the Puchukimchi with 10%, 15% and 30% salted anchovy was investigated by measuring physicochemical, microbiological and sensory characteristics during fermentation at 5$\pm$2$^{\circ}C$ up to 60 days, In the palatable period, pH was remarkably decreased to the range of 4.8-5.16 and total acidity was increased 2-3 times more than that of initial period. Reducing sugar contents in Puchukimchi increased up to 22days and remarkably decreased. The changing pattern of vitamin C drawed sigmoidal curve, invreasing significantly in the palatable period. The content of lactic acid was a little in the initial fermentation period but increased 3-13 times more than that of the initial fermentation period in the palatable period. The content of malic acid and citric acid were decreased as the fermentation progressed. The contents of Ca, Mg and K was gradually decreased and Na was increased as the fermentation progressed in the same period. There were similiar changes in the number of lactic acid bacteria and total cell number. The score of overall taste, overall acceptability in evaluation during fermentation was high in order of 15%, 10%, 30% level of salt fermented anchovy.

The effect of glutinous rice paste on the physicochemical, microbiological, and sensory characteristics of Puchukimchi during fermentation was investigated. Puchukimchi is a kind of korean kimchi made with Leek (Allium odorum L.). Puchukimchi made with various concentrations (0.0, 0.5, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0%) of glutinous rice paste were fermentated at 10$^{\circ}C$ up to 45 days. As a fermentation progressed, pH decreased in all of the treatments, while total acidity increased. By increasing the concentrtion of glutinous rice paste added, an increase of total acidity was noted from Puchukimchi. The reducing sugar content in most samples was decreased during fermentation, however, 1.0% treatment showed a relatively slow decrease. The total vitamin C content increased sharply at the 2nd-day of fermentation and then, gradually decreased especially from the 8th-day following a sigmoidal changing pattern. The total vitamin C content was the highest in Puchukimchi made with 1.0% glutinous rice paste. The counts of lactic acid bacteria increased remarkably and then decreased gradually after optimum ripening period, i.e., the palatable period of Puchukimchi during fermentation.

The properties of Puchu(Allium odorum L.)kimchi prepared with different methods were investigated by measuring organoleptic and microbiological properties up to 43 days at 10$\^{C}$ right after preparation. Five conditions of making Puchukimchi included: the addition of salt (treatment A), soybean sauce (treatment B), soybean sauce and perilla seed powder (treatment C), anchovy sauce (treatment D), anchovy sauce and glutinous rice paste(treatment E). Sensory evaluation showed high scores in the appearance, smell, sour taste, good taste, savory taste, texture, and overall acceptability of Puchukimchi prepared with soybean sauce(treatment B). However, treatment C had the best score in good taste. In the intial stage of fermentation, treatment C had higher total microbial counts than others, but in the final stage, treatment E had higher counts than others. Treatment A had less total microbial counts than others throughout the fermentation. The maximum numbers of lactic acid bacteria in other treatments were in the order of treatments A>B>D. In the final stage of fermentation, treatment B had the least number of lactic acid bacteria composed of Pediococcus, Streptococcus, Leuconostoc and Lactobacillus. Streptococcus reached the maximum level at the 8 th day of fermentation, and the number of Lactobacillus was increased with the lapse of fermentation time. It was shown that fermentation patterns of Puchukimchi were influenced by the preparation methods used.

Puchu (Allium odorum L.) Kimchi was prepared in 5 different conditions and the color(chlorophyll and carotenoids) and textural properties were measured during fermentation up to 43 days at 10$^{\circ}C$. The 5 preparation conditions which varied depending upon the sub-ingredients were as follows: to add salt (treatment A), soybean sauce(treatment B), soybean sauce and perilla seed powder (treatment C), anchovy sauce(treatment D), and anchovy sauce and glutinous rice paste(treatment E). Residual contents of chlorophyll and carotenoid decreased with the lapse of fermentation time, especially in treatments D and E. Value“a”indicating the degree of greenness in Hunter's color value decreased with the lapse of fermentation time, especially in treatment E. The contents of total soluble pectin and total soluble solid increased during fermentation.
