Elephant garlic (Allium ampeloprasum var. ampeloprasum), which belongs to the Alliaceae family along with onion and garlic, has a flavor and shape similar to those of normal garlic but is not true garlic. Additionally, its properties are largely unknown, and its processing and product development have not been reported. In this study, we focused on using elephant garlic to produce a new type of vinegar, for which the market is rapidly growing because of its health benefits. First, we evaluated the effects of elephant garlic addition on acetic acid fermentation of rice wine by Acetobacter pasteurianus. In contrast to normal garlic, for which 2% (w/v) addition completely halted fermentation, addition of elephant garlic enabled slow but successful fermentation of ethanol to acetic acid. Metabolite analysis suggested that sulfur-containing volatile compounds were less abundant in elephant garlic than in normal garlic; these volatile compounds may be responsible for inhibiting acetic acid fermentation. After acetic acid fermentation, vinegar with elephant garlic did not have any sulfur-containing volatile compounds, which could positively contribute to the vinegar flavor. Moreover, the amino acid profile of the vinegar suggested that nutritional and sensory properties were more enhanced following addition of elephant garlic. Thus, elephant garlic may have applications in the development of a new vinegar product with improved flavor and quality and potential health benefits.

The effects of high pressure on alliinase and on flavor of garlic (Alliiium sativum L.) were investigated. After pressurized at 150 MPa, 300 MPa, and 500 MPa for 10 min, the activities of purified alliinase were reduced approximately 30%, 80%, and 100%, respectively, while the enzyme activities of pressurized garlic cloves were reduced 0%, 7%, and 100%, respectively. This indicated that the intact garlic has a protective effect against pressure-inactivation of alliinase. Alliinase was more effectively inactivated when high pressure treatment was carried out at high ($>40^{\circ}C$) or low temperature ($>10^{\circ}C$) than ambient temperature. Pressure treated garlic at 500 MPa had little pungency and sulfuryl odor compared to raw garlic indicating that high-pressure processing can be used to produce garlic without pungent flavor.

This study was carried out to investigate the effects of various subsidiary ingredients added to Kimchi on the acceptance and sensory characteristics. In appearance acceptance, Kimchi without red pepper powder rated the worst, while samples without salt-fermented anchovy extracts, garlic, ginger, radish, green onion and onion showed no significant difference(p<0.05) compared with the control, and were all rated highly in acceptance. In flavor, taste and overall acceptance, the sample without garlic rated the worst, indicating that garlic has the greatest effect on the acceptance of Kimchi. Red pepper powder had an effect only on the pungency of Kimchi's flavor characteristics. Salt-fermented anchovy extracts enhanced umami taste, sweetness and saltiness of Kimchi. Garlic also enhanced the general flavor such as sourness, umami taste, sweetness, carbonated flavor and fresh flavor, but inhibited the moldy flavor. Ginger had effects on pungency, fresh flavor of Kimchi, while radish, green onion and onion only had an effect on the fresh flavor of Kimchi. Garlic had significant effects on the moldy flavor and bitterness of Kimchi's sensory characteristics, and the amount of garlic added to Kimchi influenced the sourness, sweetness and fresh flavor, irrespective of the kinds of Kimchi and fermentation temperature.

An attempt was made in this study to analyze flavor compounds and investigate storage stability of essential oil from garlic distillation. Optimum ratio of solvent between pentane and dichloromethane to get essential oil from garlic distillation was 2 to 1. The yield of essential oil was 0.35%(w/w) in ground garlic(${\phi}\;0.8mm$) and 0.07%(w/w) in whole garlic. From garlic essential oil six components : dimethyl sulfide, diallyl sulfide, methyl-1-propenyl disulfide, diallyl disulfide, allyl methyl sulfide and diallyl trisulfide were identified with GC and GC/MS, and diallyl trisulfide, diallyl disulfide and allyl mothyl sulfide were found to be major volatile components. Quality deterioration of garlic essential oil hardly occurred during storage for 60 days, at $5^{\circ}C$ and $25^{\circ}C$.

To enhance the physiological activities and reduce the off-flavor of garlic in kimchi, we manufactured kimchi seasoning replaced with 25~75% black garlic, we evaluated microbiological, physico-chemical and sensory evaluation. The changes of total aerobic and lactic acid bacteria were similar between the control and the kimchi seasoning replaced with black garlic during storage periods. The lightness of the kimchi seasoning replaced with black garlic was lower than that of the control and decrease of lightness was proportional to the concentration of black garlic. The redness and yellowness of the kimchi seasoning replaced with black garlic were decreased to the concentration of added black garlic and changes of the redness in all the samples were slightly increased during storage periods. But the yellowness did not change during storage periods. The changes of pH and acidity did not differ between the control and the samples of replaced with black garlic during storage periods. The sensory parameters including taste and flavor did not differ among treatments during storage periods. But color and overall acceptance of the control and sample replaced with 25% black garlic were higher than those of the samples replaced with 50 and 75% black garlic.

Effects of pH (1.8-10.2) and time (56 sec-15 min 4 sec) at high hydrostatic pressure (500 MPa) on the reduction of volatile compounds in garlic were studied. Volatile components of garlic were obtained from the headspace, analyzed, and identified by gas chromatography (GC)-mass spectrometry and an electronic nose. Nineteen sulfur compounds were identified as major compounds in garlic, and furan, aldehydes, alcohols, and ketones were also detected. Off-flavor compounds were more effectively reduced under strong acidic conditions. As the residence time at 500 MPa increased from 56 sec to 15 min 4 sec, the total amount of volatile compounds decreased significantly. The total amount of sulfur compounds decreased about 70% compared to those of raw garlic when the garlic was soaked in buffer (pH 6.0) and treated at 500 MPa for 15 min 4 sec. A principal component analysis showed that the off-flavors of garlic were reduced by the operating time of high hydrostatic pressure as well as pH treatment. The correlation coefficient of the results between GC and the electronic nose analysis was 0.9620. Therefore, pH and high hydrostatic pressure treatment could be used as an efficient method for reducing of garlic off-flavor.

This study was carried on the garlic-seasoning oil production by autoclaving method and evaporating method in order to research a developed method. The raw, flake, extract states of garlic was added 40%(w/w) of total amounts to corn salad oil. All samples treated with various conditions analyzed the volatile flavor components(VFC) during incubating ($40{\pm}2^{\circ}C$) and heating ($185{\pm}2^{\circ}C$). In the garlicseasoning oils, the contents of propane, pentane, methyl allyl trisulfide and diallyl trisulfide as the major VFC were decreased while the contents of propenal and hexanal increased according to the storage and heat treatment. The order of flavor contents among garlic states were raw>extract>flake, but flavor stability were raw>flake>extract states during storage, while flake>raw>extract states in heat treatment. VFC in garlic-seasoning oil made by evaporating method were about 66.1% level of those made by autoclaving method, but the changing tendency of their content during storage and heat treatment were shown to be similar. According to those results, autoclaving method and evaporating method were thought to the rational method in preparation of garlic-seasoning oil.

This study was conducted to analyze the quality characteristics of kimchi in terms of garlic content (0~4.5%). Kimchi was made at $4^{\circ}C$ for 8 weeks, and pH, acidity, organic acid content, free sugar content, microbial counts, flavor pattern, and sensory characteristics were measured. The results show that kimchi containing garlic had a higher pH and lower acidity during fermentation than control kimchi without garlic. Principal component analysis enabled differentiation of the flavor pattern of kimchi according to fermentation period and garlic content. Addition of garlic to kimchi significantly decreased the numbers of total bacteria and lactic acid bacteria for 2 weeks after production. The numbers of total bacteria and lactic acid bacteria increased rapidly up to 2 weeks during fermentation and thereafter decreased gradually. Coliform counts were higher in the control than in kimchi containing garlic, whereas there was no detection after 4 weeks. Yeast and mold counts decreased significantly with increasing garlic content during the initial fermentation stage. Counts could not be detected in kimchi containing garlic. After 4 weeks, counts could not be detected in kimchi without garlic. Among kimchi with different garlic contents, fermentation was slower in kimchi with high garlic content; scores for off-odor and off-note taste were lower as well.

This study was carried out to establish the manufacturing formulation of tea-bag type garlic tea. In order to eliminate of garlic-specific odor and taste, the masking effect of various additives against garlic flavor was determined with sensory evaluation. Leaves of green tea, arrowroot and Solomon's seal were screened as highly effective auxiliary ingredients in garlic tea. When two materials among the selected three auxiliary materials were mixed the same percentage, overall flavor of garlic tea synergistically was enhanced. The optimum concentration of garlic powder and stevioside as a sweetener were 20∼30％ and 1％, respectively. Therefore, three types formulation of garlic tea was establish. When the color, turbidity and total solid concentration of three formulated garlic teas were compared with those of commercially available formulated green tea containing unpolished rice, the latter was more yellowish color and the former was more superior to turbidity and total solid concentration.

This study investigated the quality and sensory properties of Tteokgalbi containing various amounts of roasted garlic powder by measuring the proximate composition, color, pH, cooking yield, electronic tongue, and sensory evaluation. Samples containing 3% and 5% roasted garlic powder had lower moisture content than the control group (p<0.05), however, protein content was higher (p<0.05). The redness of samples containing 3% and 5% roasted garlic powder was significantly higher compared to the control (p<0.05). pH decreased significantly with increasing amounts of roasted garlic powder (p<0.05). Cooking yield exhibited an upward trend with increasing levels of roasted garlic powder. The intensity scales of saltiness, sourness, and umami of samples containing roasted garlic powder were stronger than those of the control. Samples containing 3% roasted garlic powder scored the highest flavor and overall acceptability. These results indicate that adding 3% roasted garlic powder can enhance the quality and sensory properties of pork Tteokgalbi.
