To develop food and organoleptic quality of gochujang 0, 3, 4, and 5% of sweet persimmon powder were added to Korean traditional red pepper paste during fermentation and microbiological and organoleptic characteristics were investigated. The total bacteria count of the gochujang tended to increase slowly until a level of $10^8$ CFU/g with increasing fermentation time. There was no significant difference (p <0.05) between the control and the treatment during fermentation. The number of yeast and mold was $10^4-10^5$ CFU/g during fermentation. Sensory evaluation after 30, 60, and 90 days of fermentation showed that addition of sweet persimmon powder to the gochujang did not affect its color, but the level of sweetness and umami, increased as additional level of sweet persimmon powder increased. In the overall acceptabilty, there was no significant difference (p <0.05) until 30 days of fermentation and the gochujang added with 4% sweet persimmon powder showed the highest organoleptic value. And it showed high score in sweetness, umami and overall acceptability at the end of fermentation. The results indicated that 4% additional level of sweet persimmon powder was the best making gochujang.

This study investigated the antioxidant properties of yangha(Zingiber mioga Rosc) and quality characteristics of kimchi with added yangha during a 21-day fermentation process at $4^{\circ}C$. Yangha was added to salted cabbage at concentrations of 0, 5, 10, and 15% (w/w). The quality characteristics of kimchi with added yangha were determined by measuring pH, salinity, mineral contents, lactic acid bacteria amounts, color value and sensory evaluation. From the results, total phenolic ($3.85{\mu}M$ quercetin equivalent/g) and total flavonoids ($0.49{\mu}M$ quercetin equivalent/g) contents were measured in yangha. The number of lactic acid bacteria of kimchi with added yangha significantly increased with increasing yangha content, especially 10%. The brightness value increased with increasing yangha content. However, the redness tended to decrease by the addition of 10% and 15% yangha. The consumer acceptability score for the kimchi with added 10% yangha ranked significantly higher than that of the other groups in overall acceptability, taste, flavor, and color(p<0.05). From these results, we suggest that yangha may be used as a natural antioxidant and that it is a good food ingredient for increasing the functionality and consumer acceptability of kimchi.

Omija (Schizandra chinensis) extract (OE) was fermented by using Lactobacillus plantarum EJ2014 to produce a beverage fortified with gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA). After 2 days of fermentation in the presence of 2% monosodium glutamate (MSG) and 0.5% yeast extract (YE), the four-fold-diluted OE showed a higher viable cell count ($2.2{\times}10^9CFU/mL$) and lower acidity (1.2%) than that of the unfermented OE. In particular, addition of MSG as a precursor resulted in a small increase in the initial pH. MSG (2%) was completely converted to GABA (0.92%) during lactic acid bacteria fermentation for 3 days. Furthermore, the acidity of the fermented OE decreased from 1.74% to 0.56%. In addition, the original red color of the OE disappeared during LAB fermentation. However, when the fermented OE was mixed with 50% of the original OE, the original red color was recovered, with 19.56 and 13.92 for Hunter L and a values, respectively. The mixture of 50% original OE and 50% fermented OE showed the highest sensory score including the highest overall preference. In conclusion, the OE fortified with GABA and probiotics was produced by fermentation with a static culture, L. plantarum EJ2014.

This study was performed to analyze the processing and quality characteristics of whey Makgeolli prepared with different types of yeast and ratio of the whey content. Lactose content of yeast culture medium containing S. cerevisiae. was 1.36% whereas lactose content of yeast culture containing K. marxianus KCCM 12015 was very little. Yeast culture of both K. marxianus KCCM 35455 and K. marxianus KCCM 50700 did not produce lactose. Until the 10th day, ethanol production ability of S. cerevisiae, K. marxianus KCCM 12015, K. marxianus KCCM 35455, and K. marxianus KCCM were 0.31%, 2.51%, 2.53%, and 2.59%, respectively. Total acids content increased rapidly with the increase in the addition of whey content in the initial 2 days and then decreased during 4~10 days of fermentation. In the aspect of pH, the pH was rapidly decreased in the initial 2 days and then increased until 10th day of fermentation with the increase in whey content. Ethanol content of whey Makgeollis at 10th day of fermentation was the highest in yeast culture containing K. marxianus. From the sensory evaluation, the flavor score of whey Makgeollisin was higher than that of control. The color and taste scores were increased as the increase in the addition of whey. The comprehensive preference indicated that Makgeolli prepared with 100% whey was the best among other samples.

To investigate the effect of a solar salt on Kimchi fermentation, Chinese cabbages were brined with four-years aged solar salt (FS), one-year aged solar salt (OS), and purified salt (PS). The Kimchi was fermented at $7^{\circ}C$ for 33 days. The changes in pH and acidity of the Kimch brined with PS was slower than those of Kimchis brined with FS and OS. In the Kimchis with FS and OS, lactic acid bacteria (LAB) counts increased from 7.10~7.22 log CFU/mL at 0 day to 9.26~9.42 log CFU/mL at 12 days, after which counts slightly decreased to 8.04~8.75 log CFU/mL by 33 days of fermentation. The LAB counts of the kimchi with PS slowly increased from 7.24 log CFU/mL at 0 day to 8.99 log CFU/mL at 27 days, after then which counts sharply decreased to 7.92 log CFU/mL by 33 days of fermentation. Yellowness (b) color values of the kimchi with PS (59.10) was higher than the Kimchi with FS (53.68) and the Kimchi with OS (53.77). Hardness of the Kimchi with FS was more firm than the other Kimchis after 33 days storage. Sensory evaluation of the Kimchi with FS showed higher score than that of the other Kimchis.
