ABSTRACT
This study was conducted to evaluate the quality of onion juices that had been heat-treated for different times as well as their use as a table sugar substitute in Kimchi. The onions were steamed at 100 ∘C for 30 min and boiled at 90 ∘C for 30, 60, and 120 min. The highest cycloalliin (0.76 mM), free-sugar (sucrose 1.66 g/L, glucose 8.62 g/L, and fructose 7.64 g/L), and malic acid (0.82 g/L) contents were observed in onion boiled at 90 ∘C for 120 min. The possibility of using heat-treated onion juices as an alternative to table sugar in Kimchi was evaluated by comparing the lactic acid bacteria count, pH, acidity, organic acid, and free-sugar in these juices with those in Kimchi prepared using table sugar (control). The total viable bacteria and lactic acid bacteria showed similar growth patterns as in the control. The average pH reduction and increase in titratable acidity (%) in all treated Kimchi samples during fermentation for 4 weeks were 1.18 ± 0.05 and 0.81 ± 0.06, respectively. Kimchi with onion juice heat-treated for 120 min (K120) had the most similar lactic acid and acetic acid contents to that in the control after fermentation for 4 weeks. The highest mannitol level after fermentation for 4 weeks was detected in K120, which showed better sensory qualities compared to the control.
