본 연구는 연근가루 첨가량을 달리하여 청포묵을 제조한 후 $4^{circ}C$에서 5일간 저장하면서 품질 특성을 조사하였다. 연근가루를 첨가한 청포묵의 수분 함량은 86.78~88.88%이었다. L값은 연근가루 첨가량이 증가할수록 감소하였으나 a값과 b값은 유의하게 증가하였다(p<0.05). 관능검사 결과, 색과 맛은 연근가루 첨가량이 증가할수록 감소하였다. 향미와 광택은 시료간에 유의적인 차이는 없었다. 그리고 투명도와 탄력성은 무첨가군과 연근가루 5% 첨가할 때 가장 높았다. 단단한 정도는 연근가루 첨가량이 증가할수록 유의하게 감소하였다(p<0.05). 전반적인 수용도는 무첨가군과 연근가루 5% 첨가할 때 가장 높은 평가를 받았다. 조직감은 경도, 검성, 씹힘성은 저장 1일째에 유의하게 급격히 감소하였다(p<0.05). 응집성은 연근가루 첨가량에 따라 시료간에 유의적인 차이는 없었다. 부착성은 무첨가군과 연근가루 5, 10, 15%간에는 유의적인 차이는 없었다. 이수율은 저장 기간 동안 증가하였다. 이상의 결과로 연근가루를 첨가한 청포묵을 제조할 때 녹두전분 19 g, 연근가루 1 g, 소금 0.1 g, 물 160 mL를 첨가하는 것이 가장 바람직하겠다.
This study investigates the quality characteristics of mung bean starch Jelly by addition of different ratios of white lotus(Nelumbo nucifera) root powder during 5 days of storage at $4^{circ}C$. The moisture content of the samples ranged from 86.78 to 88.88%. The L value of the samples decreased as the amount of white lotus root powder increased; however, the a value and b value were significantly(p<0.05) increased. For the sensory evaluation, color and taste were decreased as the amount of white lotus root powder increased. Flavor and shine were not significantly different among the samples. And clarity and elasticity were highest in the sample with no powder and 5% of white lotus root powder. Hardness was decreased(p<0.05) as the amount of white lotus root powder increased. Overall acceptability was highest when using 0% and 5%. Texture profiles of hardness decreased as the amount of white lotus root powder increased. Hardness, gumminess, chewiness were found to drop significantly(p<0.05) after one day of storage. Cohesiveness was not significantly different among the samples according to the amounts of white lotus root powder. Adhesiveness was not significantly different in 0, 5, 10, and 15% of white lotus root powder. Syneresis was increased during the storage period. From the result, the most advisable mixture ratio of mung bean starch jelly with white lotus root powder was 19 g of mung bean starch, 1g of white lotus root, 0.1 g of salt and 160 mL of water.
