Q

Primary processing

A

Primary processing is food processed before it can be eaten

22
Q

Secondary processing

A

Secondary processing uses products like flour and converts into more complex foods

23
Q

.

A
24
Q

Food is processed to

A

-Make it safe to eat
-make it enjoyable to eat
-preserve it and slow down spoilage
-make it easier to prepare and serve
-maintain its consistency
-add variety to the diet
-make it available out of season
-reduce time spent on meal preparation at home

25
Q

Food production has three parts

A

Input
Process
Output

26
Q

Input

A

The different ingredients, materials, machinery and items that go into the system

27
Q

Process

A

The different things that happen to the input that change it into the output

28
Q

Output

A

The finished food product

29
Q

Food supply chain

A

The point at which food leaves the farm, to the time it reaches the fork and goes through several different processes

30
Q

The food supply

A

Agricultural sector-farms or fisheries

Manufacturing sector-factories/processing

Distribution sector-lorries/shops

31
Q

Primary processing of milk

A

Cows are milked at least twice a day

Milk is stored a 4*c and transported for processing at a dairy

Milk is heated very high for a short time and to destroy pathogens bacteria

The pasteurised milk is separated into cream and liquid components

Cream and liquid components are reblended and amount of cream added depends on the type of milk being produced

Have an even consistency and homogenisation takes place involves the milk being pushed through a hole at pressure

so that large fat molecules are broken down and dispersed evenly

32
Q

Primary processing of wheat

A

Wheat is grown in a field

The harvesting process removes the wheat grains from the wheat

The harvested wheat grains are stored until they’re needed for use

Then transported to a mill

The wheat is cleaned and conditioned to soften the outer bran layer

Flour is milled using a range of rollers and sieves

The bran, wheatgerm and endosperm are separated and blended into different types of flour

33
Q

Wheat

A

Whole meal flour uses all parts of the grain

Brown flour contains about 85% of the original grain, some bran and germ removed

White flour is made from endosperm only

34
Q

Secondary processing of milk into cheese

A

Specific bacteria are used to thicken milk:

-rennet is added to milk (an enzyme used to separate milk into curds and whey)

-curds (solid) are cut and whey (liquid) is released and drained from curds

-cheddar is made by cutting blocks of curd and placing them on top of eachother

-salt is added once the curd is milled into crumbs to add flavour and prolong shelf life

-cheeses is shaped by processing the curd into moulds which removes more whey, resulting in a firm textured cheese

35
Q

Content Command

A

Use of a debt card. Evaluate

Personal hygiene Analyse
and food supply

Rate of fat in the diet. Discuss

36
Q

Fruit and vegetables pre portions

A

A portion is 80g or any of these:

3 heaped tablespoons of vegetables

A dessert bowl of salad

30g of dried fruit
