Q

key temperatures for bacterial growth?

A

The key temperatures for bacterial growth are: -19 degree celsius for freezing. For chilling it should be no less than 8 degrees celsius. Danger zone is 4-60 degree celsius. 37 degrees celsius for serving food. For boiling bacterial growth food the temperature needs to be at 65 degree celsius.

Q

How do ripening enzymes change fruit and veg properties?

A

They are able to change the colour for example when you cut an apple nd let it exposed to the air it will make it turn brown.
The way that lemon juice would preserve the salad is it will stop the enzymes from ripening the fruit and will stop the browning.
Yeast spoils fruit as it will break down the sugar in it and turn it into carbon dioxide.

Q

What are the 5 reasons to cook food?

A

The 5 reasons to cook food are make it safe to eat, improve shelf life, develop flavours, improve texture and have varied diets.

82
Q

Why do we need to make sure foods are safe to eat?

A

Lots of food contains bacteria, these bacteria are killed if cooked at a high temperature for a long time. some have harmful toxins that are destroyed when cooked.

83
Q

How does cooking food improve shelf life?

A

bacteria is destroyed so doesn’t go off as quickly,

84
Q

why does cooking develop flavours?

A

Chemical reactions take place altering flavour of foods, cooking can allow flavours of different foods to combine

85
Q

how does cooking improve textures?

A

Easier to chew, swallow and digest, foods become softer as molecules soften, meats become more tender as proteins denature

86
Q

how can cooking food create variety?

A

Different ways to cook can make foods taste differently, like roast chicken, chicken soup, stewed chicken, fried chicken.

87
Q

What are the 3 ways heat can be transferred when cooking?

A

The three ways heat can be transferred during cooking are conduction, convection and radiation

88
Q

How does conduction work?

A

transfer of heat energy through particles, particles held tightly together and pass energy when they bump into each other, so when a pan is put on the hob particles start to vibrate when water boils, when the particles collide they pass extra heat energy over, this continues till the heat passes all through the pan, (metals conduction are good hence why pans are made of metal.

89
Q

How does convection work?

A

convection is transfer of heat through gases and liquids, warmer liquid rises above colder surroundings, warm air rises cold sinks, this process repeats, creates a circulation of heat,

90
Q

How does radiation work?

A

Has no direct contact with the food,, used by grills and toasters, they emit radiation waves, when they reach the food they get absorbed and heated up, microwaves use radiation to heat up fat, sugar and water molecules in food.

91
Q

What are 6 ways of using water to cook?

A

Braising, simmering, poaching, blanching, steaming and boiling.

92
Q

What does frying use to cook food?

A

Oil or hot fat cooking styles, deep fat frying, stir-frying and shallow frying

93
Q

what sort of heat does baking use to cook food?

A

Dry Heat

94
Q

Why is fat used during roasting?

A

to help brown more easily and keep it moist

95
Q

What are disadvantages of roasting?

A

Isn’t that healthy as extra fat is added, takes a long time and uses a lot of energy.

96
Q

What are advantages of roasting?

A

extra fat and high temperatures help brown and crisp food, fat from roasted meat can be used to cook other foods, can be tasty and moist, SOME roasts (not chicken) can have a rare centre people find this a scran

97
Q

What is dry frying?

A

Drying food without fat or oil, the food has direct contact with the pan, (works as fats inside food melt into pan while cooking)

98
Q

Advantages of dry frying?

A

No extra fats or oils added, relatively healthier, can be used to give foods like nuts seeds and spices a more distinct aroma.

99
Q

Disadvantages of dry frying?

A

Takes longer than frying as lower temperatures used at the start, can only be used for a small amount of foods.

100
Q

How can proteins denature?

A

physical agitation (like whisking or beating) changes in temperature like increased heat, acids like lemon juices or marinades.

101
Q

How can proteins denature?

A

physical agitation (like whisking or beating) changes in temperature like increased heat, acids like lemon juices or marinades.

102
Q

What happens to protein molecules after being denatured?

A

they coagulate

103
Q

What does coagulation do to food?

A

changes the appearance and texture

104
Q

At what temperature do starch molecules burst open?

A

62 degrees - 80 degrees (gelatinisation isn’t completed until 100 degrees)

105
Q

What is the process called when starch is exposed to dry heat?

A

Dextrinisation

106
Q

what happens to sugar when it is heated and why?

A

It caramelises, as they break down so turn brown and change flavour, three main stages, very sweet and runny, smooth caramel to hard sweet like texture.

107
Q

What is aeration and give ways food can be aerated?

A

Aeration are beating sugar and butter together and air gets trapped in the mixture

108
Q

Talk about shortening?

114
Q

What are the two types of raising agents?

A

chemical and biological

115
Q

Talk about chemical raising agents?

A

when heated the bicarbonate soda breaks down releasing carbon dioxide so the cake will rise, has a horrible taste and is gotten rid of when heated as the substance is neutralised.

117
Q

Talk about biological raising agents?

A

yeast is a biological dough, micro organism that causes fermentation, stops during baking as the yeast gets killed due to the temperatures

118
Q

Why do we add steam to a mixture?

A

it raises up the mixture used in foods like batters, puff pastries and choux pastries

119
Q

What is a high risk food?

Q

examples of high risk foods?

A

cooked meat, fish and poultry, dairy products, gravies, stocks and sauces, shellfish and cooked rice.

Q

what are 2 ways to stop an enzyme from working?

A

put in acids as changes pH stops enzymic browning.
