the most important group offood crops in the world

Cereal grains

the second most abundant organic substance on Earth

Starch

the three most cultivated cereals in the world

Rice, wheat and corn

used for testing the tenderness of meat

Blending fork

used for scraping off mixtures of butter, sugar, and egg from the sides of the mixing bowl

Rubber scraper

used for handling hot foods

Tongs

used for measuring dry and liquid ingredients.

Measuring cups

used for measuring dryand liquidningredients which require a littleamount.

Measuring spoon

used for cooking meat and fish dishes with gravy and sauce.

Sauce pan and pots

usedfor cooking rice and other food

Kettle and rice cooker

used for tenderizing or cooking meat, chicken, And Other grains or legumes, such as mongo and white beans in lesser time.

Pressure Cooker

used for cooking food by steaming

Steamer

a plastic or metal container with a lid that is used for keeping dry products

Canister

3 sources of starch

Cereal grains, legumes, roots and tubers

3 common source of manufactured corn starch

Tapioca, potato and corn

are starches that have beenaltered physically or chemically

Modified starch

may be separated from grains and tubers by a process called wet milling

Purified starch

long chain-like molecule, sometimes called the linear fraction. fraction of starch contributes gelling characteristics to cooked and cooled starch mixtures

Amylose

rigid to a certain degree and holds a shape when molded.

Gel

has a highly branched, bushy type of structure, very different from the long, string-like molecules of amylose

Amylopectin

contributed by amylopectin

Cohesion or thickening properties

it is a tiny, organized units where in notably seeds and roots of molecules of starch are deposited.

Granules

a tightly packed stratified layers formed around a central spot in the granule, where in amylose and amylopectin molecules are placed together.

Hilum

a crystalline-like pattern usually formed during starch molecules processing.

Maltese

The resistance to flow; increase in thickness or consistency. When the newly gelatinized starch is stirred, more swollen granules break and more starch molecules spill causing increase in viscosity or thickness.

Viscosity

The sum of changes that occur in the first stages of heating starch granules in a moist environment

Gelatinization

is the process in which starch molecules, particularly the amylose fraction, re associate or bond together in an ordered structure after disruption by gelatinization; ultimately a crystalline order appears

Retrogation

Oozing of liquid from gel when cut and allowed to stand

Syneresis

It is the process of forming dextrin.

Dextrinization

are partially hydrolyzed starches that areprepared by dry roasting.

Dextrins

- Starches undergo____duringcookingorprocessing and during storage offood where a chemical reaction inwhich a molecular linkage is brokenand a molecule of water is utilized.

Hydrolosis

its ability to trap oils and fats, which absorb flavoring substances more efficiently.

Flavor carriers

This problem is usually encountered when using acid or acid ingredients such as lemon or vinegar

Thinning of gel

results if there is toomuch liquid in relation to the starch.

Weak gel

can be avoided by temperature control and constant stirring so the starch granules do not settle at the bottom of the cooking pan
