22
Q

Gross weight

A

Total weight of all ingredients

23
Q

Weight of 1 piece

A

gross weight / number of pieces (yield)

24
Q

Number of Pieces (yield)

A

Gross weight / weight of 1 piece

25
Yield change
want (need) / have = factor that you are multiplying or dividing the recipe by
26
Creaming method
cream butter and sugar | - for doughs and cakes
27
cut in butter or flake
cut cold butter into small cubes | - want to see pieces of butter
28
Chemical leavening
baking soda / powder
29
Baking soda attributes
sodium bicarbonate + alkaline - needs to be activated with an acid - mix with liquid to release carbon dioxide for it to rise
30
Baking powder
``` sodium bicarbonate + acid + starch - just needs liquid - not clumpy because of starch double acting baking powder - also reacts to heat ```
31
Reduction
large amount of fruit, boil in water, strain the fruit and then reduce fruit more to get concentration
32
Hydro- colloiods
thickening agents (water + structure)
33
Gelatin
Derived from animals, blocks of gel (soft, elastic, chewy)
34
Pectin
apple pectin or yellow pectin Puree (high solid content) NH (used for liquids) low solid content
35
Emulsion
water and fat forced together | - mayo, buttercream
36
pasteurization
slows spoilage -kills harmful microbes 144 F for 1/2 hour
37
HTST
high temp, short time pasteurization | 161 F for 16 seconds
38
UHT
ultra-pasteurized, 280 F for2 seconds - shelf stable
39
homogenization
a process by which the fat droplets from milk are emulsified and the cream does not separate
40
Sugar stages
When heating sugar, it goes through multiple stages as it heats. As it gets hotter, the consistency and color changes. The caramelization process begins at 320 degrees.
41
Bloom
hydrating the gelatin before adding it to a hot mixture
42
Amorphous
fluid rather than a solid substance
43
Functions of sugar
- sweetener, flavor enhancer - interacts with proteins and starch during cooking and baking - tenderizes, by absorbing water and inhibiting gluten development - incorporates air during creaming process - caramelizes - stabilizes egg foams - feeds yeast during fermentation - delays coagulation of egg proteins in custard - regulates gelling in preserves - binds water - lengthens shelf life - crystallization and recrystallization of confections - regulates texture of ice cream, sorbets, and frozen desserts by lowering the freezing point
44
Rondeaux
large shallow pot with two handles | - poach pears in them
45
nappage
apricot glaze | - brush on fruit tarts, as gelatin in it, glazes fruit
46
Pate de fruit
fruit puree is reduced with sugar, pectin is added, it is then cooled and cut into little squares and coated with sugar
47
FAT TOM
Food acid - more acid, less likely to spoil Time - not leaving things out etc Temperature - not staying in the danger zone too long Oxygen - not letting things dry out Moisture - make sure things are sealed and covered properly The concerns you have when trying to run a clean kitchen
48
Pathogen
bacteria that can make you sick
49
Danger Zone
40-140 degrees | Food should not be left in this range for an extended amount of time
50
How to prevent a food borne illness
pay attention to FAT TOM, wear gloves and change them often, have good personal hygiene, wash your hands often, sanitizer buckets at every station, clean surfaces often
