To develop functionally and nutritionally improved tofu, the effects of partial (0.2~0.8%) replacement with licorice powder (LP) on the quality characteristics of tofu were investigated. The pH and turbidity values decreased upon addition of increasing amounts of LP (P<0.05). The yield of LP-supplemented tofu was higher than that of the control tofu, and it increased as the concentration of LP ...
