Abstract

This study was aimed at evaluating a proper mixing ratio of making Beaknyuncho(Opuntia ficus-indica var. saboten) Sulgidduk with different types of extraction, a fruit and a stem of Beaknyuncho, and by different making methods. As a result, moisture content was the highest(43.22%) in FP1 and the lowest(38.55%) in SJ60. The low lightness and yellowness are increased with more powder and juice of both fruit and stem added. The mechanical characteristics, hardness, adhesiveness and gumminess were increased as powder and juice were added. And cohesiveness and springiness were decreased. The identification test showed that a sample containing stem juice was the most preferable for taste, chewiness, moistness and after-taste. The preference test showed that a sample containing stem juice was the most preferable for color, texture and overall quality and a sample containing stem powder was preferable for flavor and taste. Both SJ60 mixed with 60% Beaknyuncho stem juice and FP3 mixed with 3% fruit powder proved to be the most desirable in both sensory evaluation and texture characteristics.
