Q

what triggered the formation of free radical in the first step of oxydative rancidity

22
Q

when does the progagation (second step) stop

A

when all of the double bonds have been used

23
Q

last step of oxydative rancidity + what happened

A

termination, no more hydrogens at double bond to react with oxygen

24
Q

examples of antioxydant

A

vit C, vit E (found in vegetable oils), beta-carotene, flavonoids,sulfites, BHA, BHT

25
amount of unsaturated fat to consume every day
30-45 ml
26
fats that we have to limit
hard margarine, lard, shortening, butter
27
oil extraction: advantages of chemical (using solvents)
affordable, better yield so highest profit
28
oil extraction- disadvantages of chemical
lost of many nutrients because of the heat, 25 ppm of the solvent rest in the final product, less quality oil
29
oil extraction- advantages of cold-pressed
highest quality of oils, maintin integrity of oil + compunds in it
30
oil extraction- disadvantages cold-pressed
more expensive, lower yield
31
oil extraction- what is expelled-pressed
higher pressure, therefore more heat generated
32
why waxes are unrefined
because can not support a high heat (very sensitive), so remain pure
33
why it is preferable to cook at high temperature with refined oils
because has higher smoking point
34
advantage of interesterification
modify the physical properties of the fatty acids without production of trans fatty acid
35
difference between fractionation + winterization
the goal of the 2 is to cool down the oil and separated the liquid from the solid (different melting point) but the fractionation is very more sophisticated than the winterization (use flitration)
36
functions of fat
emulsifier, satiety, flavors, texture, heat transfer, shortening, nutrients
37
tips for low fat cooking (4)
choice of equipment, of ingredients, of cooking methods and the preparation
38
replacing fat in baking (5)
applesauce, silken tofu, bananas, beans, shredded zucchini
39
type of fatty acid in coconut oil
lauric (C12) (45%), Decanoic (8%) (C10), Caprylic (C8) (7%), Myrisitic (16%) (C14), Palmitic (16%) (C16) monounsaturated : (C18) Oleic (6,5%)
40
how antioxydant prevent oxydation
1. being oxydize themselves 2. donating their hydrogen to FA 3. sequestring the metals (chelating agent)
41
what do hydrogenation
harden vegetable oils (unsaturated fat become semi-solid or solid oil)
42
explains 2 choices of equipment to lower fat
1. non-stick frying pan | 2. parchement paper: eliminate need for greasing
43
explains 2 choices of cooking methods
1. steaming | 2. grilling, baking, or poaching instead of frying
44
explains 5 choices of ingredients methods
1. low-fat versions 2. leans cut of meat 3. healthier versions (unsaturated oils) 4. versions requiring less 5. low-fat replacement
45
explains 2 preparation to lower fat
1. trim the visible fat off the meat | 2. bake pies with only a bottom crust or top crust
46
which food replace applesauce for fat
in place of oil in cakes, cupcakes and some cookie recipe
47
which food replace mashed bananas for fat
muffins and cookies
48
which food replace shredded zucchinis for fat
lock in moisture in muffins + breads
49
which food replace beans for fat
brownies + other items with a fudge-like texture
50
which food replace silken tofu for fat
cream in recipes
51
4 examples that are unrefined
pigments, odor and flavors, waxes, can also contains heavy metals and pesticides residues
52
5 basic process in refined oils
1. degumming (removal of phosphatides ex lecithin) neutralization (removal of free fatty acids) bleaching (removal of colours) deodorization (removal of odors, flavors and free FFA) winterization (removal of waxes)
53
what is health claim + roles
plant sterols + lowering cholesterol in adults
54
in coconut oil, what is good about lauric acid
good antimicrobial
