Curd

If More Acid were Added, Would the Mass of the Curd Increase? Purpose The purpose of the lab was to find out if the mass of the curd would increase if more acid were to be added to the milk. Background Information The major proteins found in milk, casein and whey, are great at providing all the important amino acids. The only difference between the two is that whey is a quick digesting protein and casein is slow digesting. Whey is beneficial because it provides fast amino acids, resulting in…

products will start to form curds. The lab groups were instructed to perform the qualitative tests at this time so they can identify positive test results later in the experiment. The lab groups were also instructed to not throw anything away during this experiment due to the fact that some parts of the experiment may need to be…

Patricia Curd believes the Pre-Socratic are the basis of scientific inquiry. According to Curd in her book, A Presoctatics Reader, “Thales…stands at the beginning of rational inquiry and critical thought about the world and the place of human beings in it that continues to the present day” (1). We see on the first page alone, where this quote was derived, that Curd already gives us a template to which we can compare and contrast the ideas of philosophers of the past to the present. Curd…

their primary explanation. While philosophers approached this task in differing manners and provided differing explanations, they all attempted in their own way to explain the world. Thales, one of the presocratic philosophers, that all was water (Curd 2001 p. 14). Other presocratic…

and mozzarella. The lady at the dairy recommended I start with the ricotta because it’s the easiest. You simply mix the lemon juice and salt into the milk and slowly bring the milk up to 185-195℉, stirring frequently to prevent scorching. When the curds separate from the whey, you drain the mixture through the muslin for about 30 minutes. Ta-Da! Ricotta! Oh my goodness, soooo much richer and creamier than the stuff in the grocery…

Yunnan province. Making varieties of tofu, such as the hairy tofu has also become an art as it requires the mastery of microorganisms. For the Mongolian nomads in Northern China, milk tea and curd has become an essential part of their breakfast as they provide vital nutrients and minerals. Turning milk to curd is also helpful to preserve it over a long time, especially during the winter season. Despite its heavy…

OBJECTIVE For the first week of the lab, the objectives were to isolate and test for the presence of major components of milk, including proteins, carbohydrates, fats, vitamins, and minerals and to determine the presence of the various components of milk in the various fractions using qualitative tests for these substances. For the second week of the lab, the there were three objectives that related to the procedure: to determine the calcium concentration of milk using the technique of…

hot and sour soup, wonton soup, chicken sizzling rice soup, and shrimp sizzling rice soup. Their vegetables menu consists of veggies similar to ours, mixed vegetables, snow pea pods with water chestnuts, Yu-hsiang Broccoli, and family style bean curd. They have one main food grown and produced in China that basically everyone plants or has something to do with every season. It also is their main income food from China. They grow rice frequently…

We woke up on June 3rd and hit the road again. We were going to try and make it as far as we could today. We made plans to meet up with my dad, grandma, aunt, and brother in Minneapolis, or somewhere close to, for lunch. My dad had been in Minneapolis the previous days, and wanted to see me before I was gone. We met up at a restaurant called Doolittles. It was fancier than we thought it was going to be. We had lunch, and it was time to leave. I gave my dad a hug and started to tear up. I had…

explain a matter with the aid of concerned laws, such as Newton’s laws to explain why a cannon ball goes in a parabola rather than a circle. Hence, a scientific explanation must appeal to law and must show that what is being explained had to occur (Curd and Cover: 40). Predictions: when an explanation has been given by using laws, there is always a room for prediction. We can predict either, what will happen in the future, or what did happen in the…
