This study investigated the spicy hot flavor related quality characteristics of cucumber salad prepared using spicy hot flavor graded gochujang that had been stored for 60 and 120 days. The results showed that the pH of both the 60-day and 120-day fermented gochujang was significantly higher in the cap-200 sample (p<0.001). In contrast to the results on pH, the acidity of both the 60-day and 120-day fermented gochujang was found significantly lower in the cap-200 sample (p<0.001). Measurements of salinity were found to be significantly lower in the sample with higher capsaicin content than in the sample with lower capsaicin content. The sugar content was found to be generally higher in the sample with the 120-day fermented gochujang than that with the 60-day fermented gochujang. Lightness (L) was higher in the sample with a lower capsaicin content than in the sample with a higher capsaicin content. The redness (a) was found to be significantly higher in the cap-200 sample than in other samples (p<0.001). The values of the L, a, and b tended to be lower in the sample with the 60-day fermented gochujang than in the sample with the 120-day fermented gochujang. The hardness of the cucumber salad was found to be lowest in the 120-day fermented sample with the cap-200 gochujang, which had the highest capsaicin content (p<0.05). The results of the sensory evaluation of the cucumber salads showed that the spiciness was stronger with the higher capsaicin content (p<0.001), and approximately one-level higher than the spiciness rating of hot pepper. The results of a key ingredient analysis showed that the sample with high capsaicin content was classified as having a relatively hot spicy aroma and flavor, and strong stinging pain, and the sample with the low capsaicin content was classified as having a salty aroma and a dark appearance.

This study was conducted to evaluate the consumers' preferences and perceptions on the salad and its dressings, via a total of 401 subjects in the Taegu area on the basis of 5-point Likert scale. Anthropometric data included the total subjects consisted of 66 females and 335 males: categorized by age, 20's (103), 30's (135). 40's (83), over 50's (80), The average size of family was 4.2 persons. According to BMI, 64.8% of the subjects belonged to the normal group. The age group that liked salad most was the 20's group, which was also the group that ate salad most frequently. The salad was perceived as food item which is convenient to eat(3.83), healthy(3.63), easy to prepare(3.73) and delicious(3.61) but rarely as a expensive item(2.44). The ingredients, used for salad preparation included fruits and vegetables(3.19) such as tomato and cucumber. Among the salad dressings, the fruit dressing was preferred the most(4.59), while the mayonnaise the least(3.59). The mayonnaise was perceived as an item with highest calories(4.1), and hardly perceived as a luxury item(2.78). The preference for the fruits dressing was highly correlated with the degree of education(p<0.05), age(p<0.001) and BMI(p<0.001). The higher the degree of education, the lower the level of age group, and the lower the BMI, the higher preference for the fruit salad dressing was demonstrated.

This study was performed to predict the multiplication growth patterns of Salmonella typhimurium according to the holding methods and times in cooked foods served at foodservice institutions. When simmered pork in soy sauce and ham and cucumber salad were inoculated with S. typhimurium (7.00 logCFU/g) and tested according to holding methods and times, room temperature holding showed a continuous increase in S. typhimurium count as time passed, whereas 80$^{\circ}C$ heating table sharply reduced the count to 4.00 (logCFU/g) after 2hrs of holding and to zero after 6hrs, which suggested that all S. typhimurium were destroyed. However, 5$^{\circ}C$ refrigerator holding showed a count increase, although it wasis still lower than that at room temperature and at 10$^{\circ}C$ cold table holding, which suggested that S. typhimurium is comparatively resistive to low temperature.

This study was conducted to investigate the validity of using a cameraphone for a dietary intake survey method. The subjects were 28 female college students. After eating a standard lunch meal which consisted of plain rice, seaweed soup, bulgogi, cucumber salad, roasted anchovy and kimchi, the quantity of dietary intake, calorie intake & nutrients intake were analyzed by weighed method, diet record method and cameraphone method by dietitian with k without cameraphone analysis training. There were no significant differences in the quantity of 6 foods intake between weighted method and cameraphone method by dietitians with camera phone analysis training. However, the quantity of seaweed soup, bulgogi & cucumber salad intake analyzed by diet record method was significantly lower than the weighed method. And the quantity of seaweed soup, bulgogi, cucumber salad, roasted anchovy and kimchi intake analyzed by the cameraphone method by dietitians without cameraphone analysis training was significantly lower than the weighed method. There were no significant differences in the calorie intake and nutrients intake between the weighted method and camera phone method by dietitians with camera-phone analysis training. However, protein, calcium, iron, phosphorous, Vitamin A, Vitamin $B_2$, Vitamin E and cholesterol intake analyzed by diet record method was significantly lower than the weighed method. And fat and Vitamin $B_2$ intake analyzed by the camera phone method by dietitians without cameraphone analysis training was significantly lower than the weighed method. Therefore, this study suggests that the use of the camerephone may be a valid and convenient method fur evaluating a dietary intake survey. However, systematic and standard education is necessary about the size and volume of dishes and angle of photo for more accurate results.

The issue of safety and quality of cooked food served at foodservice institutions has brought more attention to food scientists because the foodservice system is growing and becoming more popular in Korea. In order to control the quality and safety of cooked foods, the production and holding methods of foods should be carefully studied and the implications considered by the foodservice industry. Therefore, studies on microbiological, nutritional, physicochemical and sensory quality are essential in this area. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the chemical and microbial qualities of salads during holding. Several holding temperatures in the range of 5∼26$^{\circ}C$ were used for holding. Chicken salad and ham ＆ cucumber salad exceeded the standard after 30min of room temperature holding after preparation. Quality deterioration increased at higher holding temperatures, which suggested that refrigerator holding is the most desirable.

The purpose of this study was to evaluate the microbiological quality of non-heat-processed foods and the effects of HACCP implementation. Here, cabbage salad and cucumber&onion salad were selected and we investigated HA(Hazard Analysis) by checking microbiological quality, time and temperature, pH, and water activity at each processing stage. Thus, the receiving of spices and dressings, washing and sterilizing, cutting, cooking, and serving stages were all considered CCPs. Before implementing HACCP, microbial analysis showed that standard plate counts and coliform counts were higher than standard levels in most of the raw ingredients of each menu, as well as during the production process. The microbiological quality of the utensils and employee's hands used during cooking indicated levels requiring direct management. Evaluations of falling bacteria-in the foodservice establishment work areas ranged from $2{\sim}12CFU/plate$. However, after HACCP implementation, microbiological levels improved to standard levels fly sanitation education. Also, the number of falling bacteria were lower than before implementing HACCP. Therefore, it is essential the foodservice operations make efforts to implement HACCP, so that microbiological hazard levels are lowered and hygienic status improved.

This study was conducted to illustrate standard menu items available in the school foodservice industry, and to establish higher nutritional standards in this industry. We reviewed menu items from 125 middle and high schools from the Seoul area for three months. These menus were then classified into 12 representative menu items, as follows: beef seeweed soup, egg soup, sliced rice rod soup, spaghetti, sauted squid with hot sauce, fish cutlet, simmered pork-egg in soy sauce, sweet and sour meat, sauted pork, acorn starch jelly salad, cucumber salad. And standard recipes of these 12 representative menu items were established, based on a survey from 150 dietitians who completed a questionnaire of 97 questions. According to the survey results, 89% of the dietitians answered positively('yes') about the necessity of establishing standard recipes for the school foodservice industry. 69% of the dietitians were educated standard recipes for the school foodservice, 91% will use standard recipes for the school foodservice Moreover, we discovered there was a consensus on what type of menu items should be included on the menus; demographic factors only affected a small range of recommended items. In order to confirm real application of resulted standard recipe, it is required to conduct quantity food production at real foodservice and study on more suitable standard recipe.
