-
2 types of emulsion
- oil in water: oil droplets thoughout water most are this type, milk,cream eggs, yolk
- water in oil: water dispersed throughout oil less common food emulsions, butter margarine
-
3 parts to an emulsion
- dispersed or dicontinuous phase usually oil
- dispersion or continuous phase most likely water based
- emulsifier a stabilizer that keeps on phase dispersed in the other
-
emulsifier
a stabilizer that keeps one phase dispersed in the other
-
mono-diglycerides
most commoly used increase emulsion stability dough strenght ,volume, texture, and tolerance of ingredients to processing
-
phospholipids
- lecithin from egg yolks
- milk protein , soy protein , gelatin
-
temporary emulsions
- least viscous and stable
- seperates out when left alone
- oil and vinegar
-
semi permeanent emulsions
- intermediat viscosity
- tendency to separate decreased with stabilizers
- italian dressing
-
permanent emuslions
- very viscous and stable
- vegetable oil, egg yolk , or lemon
-
melting point
- depends of degree of saturation
- cis-trans configuration
-
plasicity
ability to hold shape but still be molded under light pressure
-
solubility
- fats are not soluble in water
- will dissolve in organic compounds
-
flavor
absorb fat soluble flavor compounds from other foods
-
texture
- smooth rich mouthfeel , tenderness volume
- lubricating action moistens food
-
appearance
- appearance of food is improve by pigments in natural fat
- milk would be chalky white or bluish
- fat gives butter attractive color
-
satiety
- induces a sence of fullness
- delays onset of hunger pangs longe to digest and delays stomach emptying
-
butter
- made from the cream of unhomogenized milk
- 80% milk fat
-
marganine
- same calore content as butter but fat souces differ and low fat version ar available
- soy bean, corn, safflower,canola. partially hydrogenated oils
- whipped
- light
-
shortenings
- plant oils that have been hydrogenated to make solid and pliable
- soy bean major source
-
oils
- derived from a variety od seeds, fruits, nuts
- vegetable oil
- fruit oil
- nut oil
-
extraction of oils
- cold pressed: seeds mechanically pressed against a press
- expeller pressed: squeezing seeds at very high temp
- Chemical solvents: removing oils with solvent
-
Refining
- removes impurites that can adversely affect flavor color smoke point , shelf life
- oil is 99.5 pure
- 5 steps
- degumming
- neutralizing
- washing and drying
- bleaching
- deoderizing
-
unrefined oils
strong aroma and flavor, low smoking point, hogh nutrietn contetn prone to rancidity
-
refined oils
neutral , low aroma , blend flavored hogh smoke point
-
olive oil
hogh unsaturated fat content lower is better reduces rick of cornary disease
-
tropical oils
- coconut palm
- longer shelf life higher saturated fat, less pronte to rancidity linke to heart disease
-
lard
- fat from swine major shortening used in early 1900s
- primarly saturated must be reduced
-
tallow
- from beef cattle or sheep
- primarly saturated must be reduced
-
suet
- solid fat around kidneys and loin of beef and sheep
- primarly saturated
- must be reduced
-
fat substitutes
- physically resemble fats
- lipid based
- replace fat on a weight to weight basis
- dubplicat funitonal properties of fat
-
fat mimetics
- water soluble
- protein or carbs based
- imitatie mouthfeel of fat
-
fat analogs
- have the characteristics of fat
- fewer calores
- altered digestibility
-
fat extenders
- optimize fat functionality
- less fat is required
-
fat replacers
- made from a range of ingredients including
- synthetic fat
- micropratculated protein
- startch f\
- fiber
- dried gruit puree
-
CHO based fat replacers
- most replaces based on carbohydrates
- fiber, gums, pectin. cellulose. staches. wate.
- more than half calores
- higher in sugar
- opacity of fat
- fruits
-
protein based replacers
- fewer calories than fat
- milk whey or egg protein
- somplesse
-
lipid based replacers
- created through chemical midification of fat, fewer calores thatn fat
- involve inhibiting absorption
- shortening the lenght of the fat
- fat extenders using water
- olestra
- undigested
- prevents absorption of vitamina A&E diarrhea cramps gas
-
heat transfer
- few fat replacers can reproduce heat transfer the way fat does
- frying saueting
- stir gry
- pan
- deep
-
frying car
- understand optimal frying tmep
- uses recommended equip
-
cna any fat be used for frying
- not all fat hogh temp of 350-450f
- 100% fat
- vegerable , hydrogenated shortening
-
controlling temp of frying
- avoid too low temp
- excessif fat
- perfect browning
-
recommended equipment
- staniless stell
- iron copper alloys increase rancidity
- clean hoods
- reduce surface area = higher smoking point
- narrow containers
-
optimal frying conditions
- avoid water
- avoid particles
- cool frying fat immediatly
- store in air tight
- discard used frying fat when oil darker and viscous
-
storage
- depend o butter and margarine
- regreigerate
- shortening and oils
- room temp
-
rancidity
- chemical deterioration of a fats causing off flavor or odors
- hydolytic: rancidity caused by esposure to water
- oxidative: exposure to oxygen in air
- hoghe degrees of unsaturatin incrases chance
- add vitamin e and ce lcithn to avoid rancidity
