This study was conducted to develop low-sodium Korean food recipes and evaluate consumer acceptability of low-sodium Korean food. A total of 137 consumers assessed the overall acceptability based on a 9-point scale. Statistical analyses were performed using the SPSS package program (ver 20.0). The results of this study are summarized as follows: According to the results of the consumer preference evaluation of low-sodium Korean food, overall acceptability of all menus was over five out of nine points (overall average 6.25). Overall acceptability was highest for grilled beef ribs (7.88), followed by bulgogi (7.63), sauteed dry anchovy (7.46), and simmered beef in soy sauce (7.45). On the other hand, overall acceptability was lowest in blanched and seasoned spinach (5.04). According to the results of Pearson's correlation analysis, overall acceptability was positively related with menu preference of 27 menus, including seasoned and simmered chicken (P less than 0.001), fiddledhead namul (P less than 0.001), and grazed lotus roots and burdock (P less than 0.001). To sum up, overall acceptability of all items used in the consumer preference evaluation was more than five points out of nine. Therefore, low-sodium recipe for Korean food can be effectively applied in commercial or non-commercial foodservice cafeterias.
