This study was conducted to optimize processing of functional seasoning sauce for instant noodles (SSIN) using response surface methodology (RSM), and to compare the functional properties of commercial SSIN. Central composite designs were adopted in the SSIN processing for ingredient formula optimization. Concentrations of sea tangle ($X_1$), traditional soy sauce ($X_2$), yeast extract ($X_3$) and Ecklonia cava extract (ECE) ($X_4$) were chosen as independent variables. The dependent variables were glutamic acid content ($Y_1$), score of sensory evaluation ($Y_2$), and antioxidative activity ($Y_3$). We found the optimal conditions to be $X_1$=3.91%, $X_2$=20.57%, $X_3$=3.04% and $X_4$=3.78%. The predicted values of the multiple response optimal conditions were $Y_1$=124.0 mg/100 g, $Y_2$=7.6 and $Y_3$=1.95. The antioxidative activity (PF, PF=oil induction period with sauce/oil induction period with distilled water) and ACE inhibitory activity of ECE-added SSIN were 1.98 and 29.0%, respectively, which were significantly higher than those of commercial SSIN (1.09 and 4.4%, respectively).

To develop a highly value-added product from extract from small and damaged sea mussels Mytilus edulis, we prepared two types of sea mussel sauce (MS): bottled (BMS) and retort pouched (RMS). We investigated the processing conditions, quality metrics and flavor compounds in each type of sauce. We found that the most appropriate base formulation for both BMS and RMS consisted of 40.0% SME (Brix $30^{\circ}$), 15.0% sugar, 6.0% salt, 4.0% monosodium glutamate, 4.0% soy sauce, 3.5% starch, 3.0% yeast extract, 3.5% wheat flour and 21.0% water. The crude protein, salinity, volatile basic nitrogen and amino-nitrogen content of the BMS and RMS were 8.7% and 8.8%, 9.3% and 9.2%, 24.9 and 31.4 mg/100 g, and 468.5 and 455.1 mg/100 g, respectively. For comparison, the ranges of these values in commercial oyster sauces (COS) are 4.7-7.5%, 10.7-12.0%, 8.2-12.5 mg/100 g, and 225.7-448.2 mg/100 g, respectively. The total free amino acid content of RMS and Premium COS was 7,215.7 and 6,160.7 mg/100 g, respectively, and the main free amino acids were glutamic acid, taurine, glycine, alanine, arginine, proline and lysine. These results demonstrate that BMS and RMS have favorable organoleptic qualities and good storage stability compared to COS, and are suitable for commercialization as high-flavor seasoning sauces.

This study was conducted to optimize the processing conditions of seasoned broughton's ribbed ark Scapharca broughtonii products (S-BRA-P) using response surface methodology (RSM). The concentrated oyster extract content (X₁, w/w), amino-based seasoning powder content (X₂, w/w), and enzyme-treated stevia content (X₃, w/w) were selected as independent variables, and amino nitrogen (Y₁) and overall acceptance in a sensory evaluation (Y₂) were selected as dependent variables. The optimal conditions of X₁, X₂, and X₃ were 97.5%, 20.0%, and 0.9%, respectively, and the predicted values of the multiple response optimal conditions were Y₁ (1,030 mg/100 g) and Y₂ (8.3). Under the optimum conditions, the experimental values of Y₁ and Y₂ were 1,034 ± 6.0 mg/100 g and 8.5 ± 0.4, respectively, which was no significant difference from the predicted values (P<0.05). In conclusion, the optimized models of X₁, X₂, and X₃ for the preparation of soy sauce-based sauce were suitably fitted. The optimum amount of seasoning sauce was 13% for the preparation of S-BRA-P. The S-BRA-P, which was prepared by adding the seasoning sauce and the other subsidiary material [finely chopped spring onion (3.8%) and cheongyang hot pepper (4.6%)], had a superior taste, color, and odor.

Three types of Korean style fried rice sauce, 'Kimchi-tomato sauce', 'Doenjang butter sauce', and 'Seafood sauce' were developed in this study. Physicochemical properties such as pH, soluble solid content, acidity, salinity, and texture of sauces were analyzed after application of three different sterilization conditions ($110^{\circ}C/50min$, $115^{\circ}C/30min$, and $121^{\circ}C/20min$). However, no trend was observed in physicochemical properties of each sauce by sterilization conditions. The lightness (L-value) of doenjang butter sauce was higher than the other two sauces. Redness (a-value) and yellowness (b-value) of doenjang butter sauce and seafood sauce were greater than those of kimchi-tomato sauce due to different ingredients. Total viable cells were not detected under all sterilization conditions of the three types of sauce. The sensory evaluation results showed that $121^{\circ}C/20min$ of sterilization scored better than $110^{\circ}C/50min$ or $115^{\circ}C/30min$ sterilization in terms of overall preference of kimchi-tomato sauce and doenjang butter sauce. Overall, the preference of the three types of sauce showed that seafood sauce was best, followed by doenjang butter sauce and kimchi-tomato sauce.

The purpose of this study was to investigate the perception and utilization of salted seafood in Korean women. We also asked them about their opinions on how to increase the production range of popular salted seafood. Data were collected from 1,137 women and were analyzed with SAS 9.1 program. Women aged between 40 and 59 had higher positive perception of salted seafood than women aged between 20 and 39. The older age group (i.e. 40 to 59) believed that the production of salted seafood, such as like as Kimchi and soy sauce, should be globalized because of their taste and nutritional value. However, the younger age group (i.e. 20 to 39) had negative perceptions of salted seafood because of their unhygienic production and excess amount of salt. Women aged 50 and over used salted seafood frequently as a side dish or seasoning to make Kimchi, stew, or soup. The younger age group preferred to purchase a small package (200g or less) of salted seafoods from the grocery store instead of preparing it themselves. When purchasing salted seafood, they considered the taste, manufacturer, and expiration date. Finally, all interviewees agreed on the importance of salted seafood as part of traditional Korean cuisine, and wanted to see further local development. However, manufacturing and packaging processes need to be standardized, and hygiene and nutritional contents should be improved in order to achieve good quality local production. To succeed and develop high quality salted seafood, younger consumers need to be enticed with better nutritional value, taste, and hygienic production. Furthermore, the production range of popular salted seafood needs to be expanded beyond Kimchi and Soy Sauce. Hence new recipes are needed.

This study was investigated for the purpose of obtaining basic data for application to the canning process of salt-fermented anchovy Engraulis japonica fillet using tomato paste. The salt fermented anchovy fillet was prepared by fermenting anchovy fillet with salt 15% at $5^{\circ}C$ for 15 days and then cold air drying the salt-fermented anchovy fillet for 1 h at $16{\pm}1^{\circ}C$. The dried salt-fermented anchovy fillet 85 g was filled with 60 g of tomato paste sauce (tomato paste 42%, gum guar 1.0%, salt 2.0%, starch syrup 2.0%, cooking wine 1%, water 52%) and seamed by vacuum seamer in 301-3 can, then sterilized at Fo 9 and 11 min in a steam system retort at $121^{\circ}C$, respectively. The factors such as chemical composition, pH, total volatile basic nitrogen (TVB-N), amino-N, color value (L, a, b), texture profile, thiobarbituric acid (TBA) value, sensory evaluation and viable bacterial count of the canned salt-fermented anchovy fillet were measured. Texture value of the product sterilized at Fo 11 min was higher than at Fo 9 min condition. In both sterilized cans, the viable bacterial counts were not detected. There was no remarkable difference in physicochemical between sterilization conditions. As a result of sensory evaluation, most sensory evaluation inspector judged that it was difficult to distinguish the sensory difference of both products sterilized at Fo 9 min and at 11 min. The results showed that sterilization of Fo 9 min was more desirable than that of Fo 11 min to prepare canned salt-fermented anchovy fillet using tomato paste sauce, because this condition is more economical.

This study investigated the preparation of seasoned anchovy sauce (SAS) and its functional characteristics by using aminopeptidase active fractions (AAFs) derived from squid Todarodes pacificus hepatopancreas as a bitter taste improver. As the base of the SAS, a hydrolysate (AAAH) prepared by continuously treating raw anchovies with Alcalase-AAF was used. The high-performance liquid chromatography profile of the AAAH suggested that the action of AAFs decreased the hydrophobicity of the N-terminal peptide related to bitterness in the protein hydrolysates. SAS was prepared by blending with the AAAH and other ingredients. The crude protein (2.5%), carbohydrates (18.4%), amino acid-nitrogen (1,325.1 mg/100 mL), and total free and released amino acids (FRAAs, 700.2 mg/100 mL) of SAS were higher than those of commercial anchovy sauce (CAS). Sensory evaluation revealed that SAS was superior to CAS in flavor, color, and taste. The main FRAAs of SAS were glycine (16.8%), alanine (13.2%), glutamic acid (7.8%), and leucine (7.3%). The amino acids that had a major influence on the taste according to the SAS taste values were glutamic acid, aspartic acid, alanine, and histidine. The angiotensin-converting enzyme inhibitory (2.21 mg/mL) and antioxidant activities (3.58 mg/mL) of SAS were superior to those of CAS.
