The evaluated physicochemical and sensory properties of freeze-dried Shingo pears(Pyus pyritolia Niitaka), cultivated at Cheonan city, prepared using different sugar concentration of blanching solution we evaluated. Sliced Shingo pears(5 ㎜ and 7 ㎜ thickness) were blanched in sugar solution(0, 3, 5, 7, 10%) and freeze-dried to make dried fruits snack. The firmness of the pear snack sliced in 7 ㎜ portions was greater than the pear snacks sliced in 5mm pieces. However in sensory evaluation, pear snacks sliced in 5 ㎜ portions showed higher scores. pH and titratable acidity showed no significant difference in the blanching process. Concentration of total phenollic compound in fresh pear was 3.7 ㎎% but freeze-dried pear snacks showed higher values at 15 ㎎%. Sensory evaluation tests showed that the scores for texture decreased as the thickness of the snack and sugar concentration of blanching solution increased; however the score increased(p<0.05). Color intensity and overall acceptability scores were highest in pear snacks sliced in 7 ㎜ pieces and blanched with 7% sugar solution.
