The purpose of this study was to determine the organoleptic characterisitcs of cauliflower pickles made in various compounding ratio according to central conposite design for optimum organoleptic characteristics of the cauliflower pickles.
The optimum mixing condition of cauliflower pickles were optimized, using central composite design with 3 variables and 3 levels, by response surface methodology. The various kinds of cauliflower pickle were made in various compounding ratio of vinegar, salt and sucrose - critical ingredients of pickle recipe - and were presented to reliable panels, who graded the subjects in 7 degrees for 4 items : color, lavor, hardness and overall quality.
The optimum mixing conditions of cauliflower pickle were 603.50g of vinegar, 80.13g of salt and 251.079 of sucrose in the maximum point of overall quality.
