1
Q

compare enriched vs fortified

it’s abt the needs….

A

= nutr added to meet legal l vl of nutr in food BEFORE processing
e.g milling yt flour: remove bran & germ -> enrich to get the lost nutr

= add not-resent nutr

Q

second step of wheat processing - maturing

maturing: why yellow/ why yt? l

maturing agent- azodicarbonamide, __ ___, __ acid
=> purpose?

A

**mature flour is yellow **due to carotenoids
w/ aging, **whitens **
=> oxidised part of glutenin & gliadin protein forms bond easier -> good bread

labeled unbleached unless using ‘..unless using maturing agent: K bromide, ascorbic acid
=> to recreate aging effect in shorter time -> save $ on storing

Q

compare cake vs pastry flour

A

they’re both soft wheat

cake flour: most refined, has a fine & silky txtre; bleached
pastry flour: has a higher protein content btw cake to AP
ideal of cookies & pastry

21
Q

All Purpose Flour

A

blend of hard & soft wheat bt not ideal for good yeast bread & cakes

22
Q

whole wheat flour: less__- formed
rancid quicker

A

less gluten formed, sharp bran particles glut gluten strands
whole wheat flour:
=> make denser & coarser bread

23
Q

vital wheat gluten

A

3/4 protein, to stregthen dough

24
Q

what is golden rice?

A

GMO-ed w/ gene that has beta-carotene
to combat vitA deficiency; not commerically available

25
Q

corn: grain vs cooking?

hominy / corn meal / grits / flour

A
  • hominy & hominy grits = corn treated w/ alkaline cooking process
  • corn meal = ground corn
  • fine grits = similar to corn meal bt **coarser **
  • corn flour: entire kernel grounded into flour
26
Q

properties of coirn

wheat protein texzture masa floru

A

corn is a non-wheat flour -> no gluten bcs its major protein ZEIN is gluten free
=> has a crumbly txture
corn masa flour makes tortillas

27
Q

3 ways of corn processing
4) corn syrup & glucose

A
  1. stone ground or non-degerming: germ is still there -> shorter shelf life -> rancid quicker
  2. tempering & degerming
  3. alkaline cooked: steep in boiling alkaline solution -> create masa flour
  4. from hydrolysis of cornstarch
28
Q

distinct long grain rice vs med & short grain

A

= more alymose, light & fluffy when cooked
= less, stickier

29
Q

arsenic in rice has 2 forms: ___ & ____
- source
- brown vs yt rice
- regulation

A

organic & inorganic- the latter is toxic
* nat occur in our enviro, H20, air: burning fuels, pesticides
* soem country have a higher lvl of arsenic in their gorund

  • brown contains more vs yt rice bcs the arseninc is concentrated in bran
  • some countries have max amnt of arsenic allowered; in CAD no sucg thing
30
Q

settle the debate: is oat gluten-free?

A

oat is gluten free- contains a glute-like protein called avenin
however it’s grown in gluten enviro so** “gluten-free**” oats grow in dedicated fields & facilities
=> routine test

31
Q

t

tell me abt rye flour

A
  • light & dark
  • glutenin & gliadin -> creates a dense loaf
  • bt mix yt wheat flour to create lighter loaf

=> prone to ergot a type of fungus so must contain less than 8% ergot rye

32
Q

barley & malting

A

malting = to germinate & dry the grians; can hae sprouted barley

used by industry to add amylose lvl in flour

33
Q

triticale

A

mix btw rye and wheat; harder for bread

34
Q

list the pseudo cereal grains

A
  • wild rice: reed water plant NOT rice
  • buckwheat: seed of herbaceous plants
    • quinoa & amaranth
35
Q

other non-wheat florus include

A

1) ancient grains & tuber
2) pulse flour
3) soy floru

36
Q

list the gluten free flour

A

only millet _ sorghum
pseudo cereal grains
other non-wheat flour

37
Q

in general, ___
- groats:
- quick rolled oats: __ -> chop -> steam -> _____
* old fashion **rolled **oats
* steel cut oats:

A

most of the hull removed, only bran & germ left

  • pass through roller -> cut -> steam -> rolled
  • rolled bt not CUT
  • steel cut oats = steel cut groats
38
Q

noodles are made of ___ while pasta are made from _____

A

flour / durum semonlina

39
Q

pasta

A

is yellow due to durum wheat’s carotenoids
when durum is milled,** endosperm** gorund into semolina
protein & starch in semolina maintain pasta’s shape when cooked

40
Q

division of breakfast cereall

A

1_ HOT: oatmeal & cream of wheat
2___ read to eat: flaked, puffed etc

41
Q

American Assoic of Cereal Chemist standarise grain analysis method
what are some examples of tests for flour?

want more loaf vol, amylsoe & bon appetit

A
  1. physical test

milling performance test: hard wheat has more damaged starch -> h20 absorption 0> poor loaf volume
starch properties: amylograph
2. product test: best one!

42
Q

3 ways of mixing

A
  1. muffin method: add L w. dry
  2. pastry method: fat is cut into dry ingre & add (l)
    fat coats starch -> flaky txture
  3. conventional: creaming
43
Q

effect of high altitude baking

add egg, add L, heat l less

A
  • leavening(g) meet less resistance & expand more quickly
    => use less
  • moisture evap quicker: add more (L)
  • L boil @ lower temp
44
Q

effects of glutenin and gliadin

A

80% of flour protein is glutenin & gliadidn
gliadin makes a viscous extensible dough VS glutenin: cohesive, strong ^ springy
crosslink va cov disulfide bond w/ H20

45
Q

what happens if you overmix dough? too much H20?

A

gluiten strands tear, disulfide network is broken
soft sticky dough wont rise

too much H20- -> dilute protein, less gluten dvlopment

45
Q

first 3 methods of leavening

A
  • air: just read folding dough / creaming butter / beat egg
  • steam: occurs to all dessertts in some extent
  • CO2: bioglocial (yeast) or chem (baking soda)
46
Q

fermentation: yeast & bacteria

__- + sugar -> ___ + __ -OH
salt rising bread

A

yeast ferments sugar -> CO2 + ethyl alcohol
salt from sugar (slow fermen) vs added sugar (fast_
salt-rising bread use nat occuring salt-tolerant bacterium from corn meal (i.e sour dough)

47
Q

baking soda in the oven

Na CO3

A

Na bicarbonate + heat -> Na carbonate + CO2 + H20
Na carbonate has a bitter, soapy taste; brown spots unevenly distributed

to avoid bitter taste, add acid: buttermilk, molass, cream of tartar

48
Q

baking powder = ___ + ___

A

if add too much, cell may collapse; too lil, cell may not expand, compact product
starch is there to stabilise everything & prevent premature rxn
