This study aimed to investigate the effects of process conditions on the quality characteristics of beef-bone broth inan attempt to improve the quality of ready-to-eat Gom-Tang. Cow soup bone (500g) was heated in water(1,500mL) at 121oC for 3 h to 15 h using an autoclave. In an examination of the physical characteristics of thebeef-bone broth, samples extracted after 3 h and 5 h were able to form a weak gel, whereas samples extracted atlater times appeared to lose their gel forming capability. Regardless of physical characteristics, crude protein andtotal amino acid content increased as the extraction time increased. The content ratio of glycine to crude protein of3.9 appears to be the limit for gel formation. The size distribution of microparticles and turbidity from floc forma-tion in the beef-bone broth were affected by the kind of salt present. Refined-salt produced smaller particle sizesand better turbidity compared with sea salt. Also, the particle size and the formation of aggregates increased withcalcium concentration. The optimum concentration of calcium was found to be less than 0.04%. Our results indicatethat control of extraction time and additives can enhance the quality of beef-bone broth.
