|
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 |
