Test two Flashcards
What is the main protein in milk
80% casein,
What is the composition of milk
87% water, 3.4 protein, 3.7 fat, 4.8 carb, 0.8 ash
what is the carbohydrate of milk
lactose
which protein is coagulated by acid
casein
which protein is coagulated by rennet
casein
what is rennet
curdled milk from the stomach of an unweaned calf, used in the curdling milk for cheese.
what dairy products are lactose intolerant individulals able to eat
yogurt, fermented milk product and some cheeses
2% milk is called
reduced fat
1% milk is called
low fat milk
.5% milk Is called
skim milk
how much fat does whole milk contain
3.25 %
whole milk and all reduced fat milks must contain at least
8.25% milk solids -not-fat
which concentrated milk can be diluted 1:1 and used in the place of fresh milk
evaporated milk
why do concentrated milks discolor
both can develop a light brown because due to the reaction of sugar and protein which is known as the maillard reaction
Cultured milk products
buttermilk, acidophilus milk and yogurt
what can you use in the place of buttermilk in a recipe
one tbsp. of white vinegar or lemon juice to 1 cup of milk and letting the mixture stand for then minutes
pasteurization
kills pathogens, milk is not sterile
what is the difference between pasteurized and UHT milk
pasteurized is not sterile and must be refrigerated.
UHT milk is sterile
homogenization
breaks up fat globules and prevents a cream layer forming
factors affecting volume and stability of whipped cream
cream should be chilled before whipping
it should have a fat content of at least 30%
if it is warm and or is over-whipped it may turn to butter
best ways to heat/cook with milk
low temp don’t scorch whey proteins or curdle caseins.
Whey proteins will denature when heated and form a skin on the bottom sides of the pan, Continued heating may cause the whey protein to react with the lactose to form a brown color and the film will scorch
what are examples of each of the different types of chesses
very hard ripened ex is romano or parmesan,
hard ripened - cheddar, swiss
semi-soft ripened (with bacteria) -brick and muenster
semi-soft ripened (with mold)- blue, forfonzola, stilton and Roquefort
Soft ripened (surface ripened with mold) -brie, camembert
Soft unripened -cottage, cream ricotta and feta
which cheese is made with whey
ricotta
which cheeses are coagulated with acid
cheeses that are not aged
which has more calcium and acid cheese or a rennet cheese. WHy
rennet cheeses, about one fourth or on half of the calcium in milk is lost in the whey during the production of acid chees
what factors affect cooking quality of cheese.
fat and water conents
presence of emulsifying agents
extent of ripening
aged cheeses are better for cooking than mild cheeses, because the protein is broken down further
Processed cheeses are food for cooking because they contain emulsifiers
