In this study, processing of dried products of adcidian , Haocynthia roretzi, were investigated, which has been cultured in the south and east coast of Korea in recent years. Raw ascidians were shucked , gutted, soaked and then drained. Seven kinds of dried ascidian meats were prepared : boiled in 5% slat solution for 10 min and hot-air dried (A)-sun dried (B) or hot-air dried (C) after soaking for 1 min in 0.2% NaHSO3 solution , sun dried (D) or hot -air dried (G) after treating for 15 sec in 5% liquid smoke solution, and sun dried (E) or hot -air dried (F) after blanching for 30 sec in boiling 5% salt solution added with 0.2% NaHSO3. The moisture contents, water activity of the products showed little change and VBN gradually increased during storage at 25 $pm$2$^{circ}C$. The TBA and POV values of the liquid smoked dried ascidian (product D, G0 were considerably lower than those of others, In fatty acid composition 22 : 6 , 20 : 5 : 16: 0 and 18 : 1 acid were predominant. Conditions adopted in products D and G had a good antioxidative effect on highly unsatuated fatty acids during the storage. The contents of inosine and AMP of products were higher than those of other nucleotide and their related compounds. Judging from the results of chemical experiments and sensory evaluation, the sample A, D and G were most desirable and they could be preserved more than 120 days at room temperature(25$pm$2$^{circ}C$).
