The addition of jogi, Micropogonias undulates, affects amino acid content in kimchi fermentation.

The effects of jogi (the fish Atlantic croaker, Micropogonias undulatus) on the production of physicochemical components, such as color, organic acids, and amino acids, in kimchi, a traditional fermented vegetable food of Korea, were determined. As fermentation progressed, the color change of jogi-a...

description The effects of jogi (the fish Atlantic croaker, Micropogonias undulatus) on the production of physicochemical components, such as color, organic acids, and amino acids, in kimchi, a traditional fermented vegetable food of Korea, were determined. As fermentation progressed, the color change of jogi-added kimchi increased, but in comparison with that of the control group without jogi-added kimchi, was difficult to distinguish with the naked eye. Reducing sugar decreased in all experimental groups, and as fermentation progressed, kimchi with jogi showed a lower value. Acetic acid, citric acid, lactic acid, and ethanol, were highly produced in both types of kimchi, and above all, the jogi-baechu-kimchi group showed higher acetic acid and lactic acid contents than the control group. The increase and decrease of amino acids were similar in both types of kimchi. However, significantly, immediately after manufacture, the savory components aspartic acid and glutamic acid were detected higher than the control group. Subsequently, the fermentation tended to decrease as it progressed, but the content was higher than that of the control group. The above results show that jogi addition has a greater effect on the contents of amino acid, especially the savory component, than on the physicochemical components.
