IV D Food production & systems Flashcards
what is a production schedule?
what to do when- assigning tasks by hour of the day to employees
standardized recipes and a production schedule are _____ control procedures***
food production
what are standardized recipes?
produces KNOWN QUANTITY of food of desired quality; TESTED & ADAPTED
2 ways for quantity control of food?***
1) proper FORECASTING
2) CONTROL PORTION SIZES (use correct tools)
as the scoop size # increases, the serving size _______***
DECREASES - inverse relationship
how to determine number of OUNCES in a scoop?***
32 / disher #
what does a scoop number indicate?
number of scoops from a quart (32 ounces)
60 scoop is?**
1 T –> use for GARNISH, DECORATION
8 scoop is?
1/2 cup (4 ounces)
16 scoop is?
1/4 cup (2 ounces)
Gantt and PERT are what?**
tools of PRODUCTION CONTROL
what is a Gantt progress chart?***
concerned with TIME of production, not cost!
how to read a Gantt progress chart- what do opening and closing of brackets show?***
scheduled start and completion of activity [ ]
how to read a Gantt progress chart- what does a heavy line connecting brackets mean?***
CURRENTLY COMPLETED PORTION
how to read a Gantt progress chart- what does a carat mean?***
carat above chart = CURRENT TIME
carats in the Gantt progress chart***
- everything to the left of the carat should be completed (aka full line through)
- if a line is not completed to the left of the carat, bad progress
what does PERT stand for?***
program evaluation and review technique
what does PERT show?***
what activities must wait for completion of other tasks and what tasks can be performed concurrently
PERT- what 2 things can you calculate?***
1) time to complete a project
2) critical path
PERT- what is a critical path?***
LONGEST PATHWAY THROUGH- determines the MINIMUM TIME for COMPLETION (if there is a concurrent task, choose the one that takes longer to be in the critical path, don’t add them together)

qualitative food quality criteria is?***
SUBJECTIVE, opinion
what type of measurements does qualitative food criteria use?***
ORGANOLEPTIC measurements (sense organs) for sensory analysis
analytical vs. affective tests
- analytical = differences or similarities, qualities
- affective = preference or acceptance
what is a difference or discrimination test?
recognizing small differences between samples
paired comparison test
2 samples side by side to compare; trained panelists
triangle test
3 samples presents, 2 are alike; used to test difference between old and new products; trained panelists
ranking or scaling test
rank samples in order of preference; used with untrained panelists
hedonic rating
scale or smiley faces (type of affective test)
flavor profile method*****
descriptive flavor analysis profile; TRAINED PANEL analyzes in GREAT DETAIL
what are objective measurements of food quality?*****
PHYSICAL measurements (objective…physical)
types of objective measurements of food quality*****
1) penetrometer
2) viscosimeter
3) line-spread test
4) specific gravity
5) counting & measuring lumps in a sauce
penetrometer***
tenderness, firmness; baked custards
