Abstract

This study was conducted to evaluate the quality characteristics of mugwort-tofu prepared by purified salt (A1), sun-dried salt (A2), bamboo salt (A3), and deep ground water salt (A4) in addition to CaCl₂ as coagulants. Addition of various salts with CaCl₂ increased yield of the tofu resulting in high content of lipid, protein and mineral contents of mugwort-tofu. Sun-dried salt was most effective in yield of the tofu among tested salts. It was also most efficient in increasing protein, and lipid contents of the tofu. The amounts of Ca, K, Mg, and Na were highest in mugwort-tofu prepared with sun-dried salt, while they were lowest in the tofu with deep ground water salt. The texture analysis showed the tofu prepared with various salts generally increased the hardness and gumminess of the tofu significantly. The sensory evaluation of the tofu with various salts demonstrated that the saltiness, tastiness, chewiness, and overall acceptance were enhanced significantly. Among tested salts, bamboo salt showed the highest overall acceptance in mugwort-tofu, followed by deep ground water salt, purified salt, and sun-dried salt.
