Dairy And Bread Flashcards
Milk is heated to destroy bacteria
Pasteurization
Dairy products are used for
Cooking and drinking
Heat milk to higher temp than pasteurization to increase shelf life
Ultra-high temperature processing
Process used to break milk fat into tiny pieces that remain uniform throughout the milk
Homogenization
Adding vitamins (D)
Fortifying
Fat portion of milk
Milk fat or butter fat
Contains the most vitamins, minerals, protein, and sugar
Milk solid
Natural sugar found in milk
Lactose
Body can’t break down lactose in milk
Lactose intolerant
Percentage of fat in whole milk; skim milk
3.25%;0.5%
Heavy whipping cream; light whipping cream
Most fat; medium fat (hold air used for desserts)
Light cream or coffee creamer
Less fat (table or cooking)
Half and half
Half milk and half cream
Cultured dairy products
Helpful bacteria is added to produce lactic acid that causes thick texture and tangy flavor (yogurt, buttermilk, sour cream)
Evaporated milk
Some water is removed from milk
Sweetened milk
Some water is removed from milk and sugar is added
Butter
Churned (mixed more than whipped cream), pasteurized, and cultured cream
Sweet butter; whipped butter
Made without salt (more perishable); add air (easier to spread)
Nondairy products
Performance like dairy without the dairy (coffee whitener, cool whip, margarine)
Cost of dairy products is influenced by
Brand, fat content, size, form ,and place of purchase
Sealed ultra-high temp processed milk can be stored for
6 months
Large ice crystals can damage
Texture and flavor of refrozen desserts
Three cooking techniques to prevent scum
Stir, cover, beat with whisk
Scum
Solid layer that forms in the surface of milk when heating
What causes milk to boil over
Pressure built beneath scum
Coagulated proteins caused by overheating incorrectly and adding acid to milk
Curdling
A starch thickening milk product, base to sauce
White sauce
Thickness of white sauce is determined by
Starch and milk
Cooked paste of fat and flour, used to thicken white sauce
Roux
Steps in making white sauce from roux
Melt fat in low heat, stir in flour and seasonings to make paste, stir in milk, and stir constantly over medium heat until thickened
Mixture of liquid and starch that is blended until smooth - shake or blend
Slurry
Steps for making white sauce from slurry
Combine fat free milk, flour, and seasoning, blend or mix until smooth, cook in heavy sauce pan over medium heat, and stir gently until boil then for a minute longer (prevent starch taste)
Cooking produces for smooth white sauce
Gentle stirring, use moderate heat, use cold milk and thoroughly blended dough
Cheese is made by
Separating the milk curds (solid part) from the whey (liquid part)
Cheese is ready as soon as the whey is removed
Un ripened cheese (ricotta, sour cream, cream cheese)
Ripened cheese is made by adding controlled amounts of
Bacteria, mold, yeast, or enzymes to milk then stored at specific temp to develop flavor and texture (cheddar, mozzarella, Swiss)
Process cheese is made from
A blend of ripened and un ripened cheese
Imitation cheese is
A large portion of milk fat is replaced with vegetable oil
When cooking with other ingredients use
Ripened cheese
Cheese cooked at high temps for too long will cause
Toughness, rubbery texture, and the fat may separate
The body’s number one mineral in quantity
Calcium
Excess calcium is stored in
Long bones
Functions of calcium
Combines with phosphorus to build strong bones and teeth, helps blood clot, keeps heart and nerve working, helps regulate other minerals
Other sources of calcium
Whole fish, leafy greens, and broccoli
Osteoporosis
Low bone mass (brittle and porous)
Functions of phosphorous
Combines with calcium to build strong bones and teeth, aids in storing and release of energy (catalyst), helps balance alkalis and acids in blood, helps body use other nutrients
Sources of phosphorus
Meat, poultry, fish, eggs
Vitamin D…soluble
Fat soluble
Functions of vitamin D
Growth and mineralization of bones and teeth, helps body use calcium and phosphorous
Vitamin D is found in
Eggs, liver, fatty fish (salmon)
