Abstract
As one of the research series for the industrialization of sikhae, this study was evaluated the taste compounds present in different temperature conditions, , and alternating temperature (stored at after 10 days fermentation at ), respectively. The changes in proximate compositions were negligible but the amounts of total sugar decreased during fermentation. The pH of sikhae products except the product fermented at , decreased during fermentation and was maintained at the rage of 3.8~4.4 after 10 days. The values of acidity, VBN and amino-N gradually increased with fermentation times and with increasing temperature condition in all products. Three organic acids (lactic, citric and malic acid) were disclosed as key compounds affecting the sourness in Alaska pollack sikhae. The result of taste value revealed that 6 amino acids having sweet and umami taste (aspartic acid, glutamic acid, alanine and lysine) and bitter taste (valine and methionine) as major amino acids affecting the taste of sikhae products, and increased with fermentation times. Hypoxanthine was the main component in ATP related compounds. Amino-N was comprised more over 50% of the Ex-N in sikhae products, and followed by total creatinine-N, TMAO-N and TMA-N in that order.
