B: Yes, I do. They are:

2. A: What are dairy products?


B: They are products made from milk like cheese, yogurt, and butter.
3. A: Why do you think a good nutrition is necessary for us?
B. Because if you don’t eat healthy food and consume portions of each food group you

INTRODUCTION
Food is an essential part of our lives. The food industry is the
basic and important to every nation. It is one of the seventeen
national critical sectors of US economy. It plays a crucial role
in public health, food safety, food security, social
development, and nutrition. Product quality, health, and
sanitation issues are major concerns in the food industry.

1. What do you know about beer?

2. What are the most popular beers in your country?

3. What kind are they?

4. Do you know what the process to elaborate them is?

Beer \bi(ə)r\ n 1: an alcoholic beverage usually made from malted


cereal grain (as barley), flavored with hops, and brewed by slow
fermentation. Synonyms: ale, brew, brewski, brown bottle, cold one,
pint, hops, lager, malt, malt liquor, oil, stout, suds, liquid bread. As
defined by Webster’s Ninth New Collegiate Dictionary and
Thesaurus.com.

At one time the words beer and ale were not synonymous. In the days
before hops became ubiquitous, beer referred specifically to a fermented
cereal beverage brewed with hops, while ale was brewed without hops.
Today the most commonly used designations are ale and lager, referring
to beverages brewed with differing strains of yeast. But both ale and
lager are beer.
What is beer made of?

The Bavarian Reinheitsgebot (purity law) of 1516 stated that beer could only be made from
three ingredients, water, barley and hops. Yeast was added in the 19th century after Louis
Pasteur identified it as the agent of fermentation. For the most part beer is still made from only
those four ingredients. But that list is not now and has never been complete. Prior to the
widespread adoption of hops in the fifteenth
century, beer was bittered with an herbal mixture
often called gruit. Besides gruit, a host of other
ingredients have long been a part of the
brewmaster’s toolkit, including other grains, sugars,
fruits and vegetables, and spices.
The Big Four Beer Ingredients

Water – Beer is up to 97% water. It only makes sense then that the quality of the water
would have a significant impact on the quality
of the beer. In fact, because of the chemical processes involved, the mineral content of the
brewing water is important to the brewing process. Certain historical beer styles evolved
in the places they did in large part because of the water. The hard water of Dublin
necessitated the acidity of dark-roasted grains to maintain proper ph, thus the area
produced stouts. It is a good bet that wherever darker beers were brewed, the water was at
least moderately hard. The nearly mineral free water in Plzen, Czechoslovakia allowed
brewers to use very lightly kilned malts to create Pilsner. Today brewers treat their
brewing water to get the specific mineral profile they desire for the beer they are brewing
Grains – Malted Grains are the meat and potatoes of beer. They provide the sugars that
are fermented by yeast to produce alcohol and CO2. They also provide the essential
nutrients yeast need to reproduce. They are the primary source of color and body in beer.
Malted grains are a major contributor to the flavor and aroma profiles of
beer. The malting process is simply a controlled sprouting
and kilning of the grain. The sprouting begins to break
down starches contained in the grain making them
accessible to the brewer and the kilning provides color
and flavor. Grains kilned at higher temperatures or longer
periods of time are darker. Malted barley is by far the
most widely used grain in beer making, but it is not the
only one. Other malted grains commonly used in brewing
include wheat, rye and oats.

Hops – Hops are the spice of beer. They provide bitterness to balance
the sweetness of the malt, as well as flavors and aromas ranging from
citrus and pine to earthy and spicy. Hops are the cone-like flower of a
rapidly growing vine (a bine actually) in the cannabis family. Waxy
yellow lupulin glands hidden within the leaves of the flower contain
the acids and essential oils that give hops their character. Bitterness
comes from alpha acids that must be chemically altered through
boiling in order to be utilized. Hops more than any other brewing
ingredient are subject to the phenomenon of terroir, as different
growing regions produce hops with different flavor and aroma
characteristics. The chief hop growing regions are the Northwestern
US, Southern England, Germany, Czech Republic, and China.

Yeast – It is said that brewers make wort (the word for unfermented beer) and yeast makes
beer. Yeast metabolizes the sugars from the grains and produces alcohol and CO 2. Yeast
also produces an assortment of other fermentation by-products such as phenols and esters
that add significant flavor and aroma character to beer ranging from delectable fruitiness to
peppery spice. There are two main types of yeast, typically called ale and lager. Ale yeast
ferment at higher temperatures between 65° F and 75°F. Higher fermentation temperatures
encourage the production of greater amounts of esters and phenols, resulting in beers with
more yeast derived flavor and aroma. Lager yeasts ferment colder, between 45° F and 55°
F. Colder temperatures inhibit the production of the various fermentation by-products
resulting in beers with a “clean” yeast profile. Certain beer styles are fermented with an
assortment of wild yeasts and bacteria that produce a range of funky flavors from sour to
barnyard.
Other Common Beer Ingredients

Unmalted Grains – In addition to the malted grains listed above there are a number of
unmalted adjunct grains that are commonly used in beer. These grains are used to add
flavor, improve mouthfeel, lighten body and color, and to make gluten free beers. The
adjunct grains include corn, rice, wheat, rye, oats, and some lesser used grains like
sorghum. Perhaps the most common example of the use of these grains is the International
Lager style that typically contains up to 30% rice or corn. Others include Oatmeal Stout
(oats) and Belgian Witbier (wheat).

Other sugars – The use of non-grain sugars in beer is probably as old as brewing itself.
While yeast cannot ferment all sugars derived from grain, these other sugars are often fully
fermentable. For this reason they can improve drinkability in very strong beers by
lightening the body without sacrificing the desired alcohol content. This is a common
practice in Strong Belgian Ales and English Barleywines which can become thick and
cloying when made entirely from grain sugars. Non-grain sugars are also used to enhance
beer flavor and color. Common
brewing sugars include brown sugar, cane sugar,
molasses, honey, and the caramelized sugar syrups
employed by Belgian brewers. Some American
craft brewers are experimenting with more exotic
sugars like Thai palm sugar.

Spices – The use of spices in beer goes back to the


days before hops. As mentioned above, before hops
became the preferred bittering agent for beer,
brewers used a mix of herbs and spices
called gruit. Using herbs and spices to add flavor and aromatic qualities continues to be
popular today. Possibly every spice in existence has found its way into beer at some point.
Common spices used in brewing include cinnamon, nutmeg, allspice, coriander, grains of
paradise, ginger, orange peel, heather and anise, just to name a few. Use of spices is
common in holiday ales and winter warmers. Belgian brewers are known for their subtle
use of spice in beers such as Saison and Belgian Witbier which is flavored with coriander
and bitter orange peel.
Fruits and Vegetables – Fruits and vegetables are used in beer to provide flavor, aroma,
color, and fermentable sugars. Fruits like berries, apricots, and cherries are most commonly
used in wheat beers and Belgian sour Lambic beers. However they are sometimes also
used in other styles including porters and stouts. American craft brewers have been
experimenting with a wide variety of vegetables in beer, including pumpkins, sweet
potatoes, beets, and chili peppers.
The Brewing Process

Beer is an industrial product. A brewery is literally a beer factory in which the brewer takes
advantage of and manipulates natural processes to create the perfect growth medium for yeast.
On the surface the brewing process is simple. But it you look a little deeper you find that there
is a complex set of chemical reactions at work in the creation of beer.

Milling – The first step of the process is crushing the malt. This breaks apart the grains,
exposing the starchy ball inside and making it accessible to the brewer. The grains are only
lightly crushed, leaving the hulls intact to serve as a filter bed for the lautering process later
on.

Mashing – Mashing is the process by which the brewer extracts fermentable sugars from
the grain. Basically it consists of steeping the grains in water at temperatures between 140°
and 160° Fahrenheit for a period of sixty to ninety minutes at a thickness similar to
porridge. This activates naturally occurring enzymes in the grain that convert the grain
starches into sugars, like maltose, that yeast can metabolize. This process occurs in a vessel
called a mash tun.

Lautering – During lautering the fermentable sugars are rinsed from the grains. As the
sugary liquor from the mash, now called wort, is slowly drained from the bottom of the mash
tun, heated water is pumped in from the top at the same slow rate. As the water flows
through the grains, it raises the temperature to about 170° Fahrenheit, making the sugars
more soluble and easier to remove. As mentioned above, the intact grain hulls form a natural
filter, removing bits of grain and proteins from the wort. In some brewing systems lautering
occurs in the mash tun. In others the entire mash is pumped to a special lauter tun.

Boiling – From the lautering stage, the wort is pumped to the kettle where it is boiled. A
vigorous boil is maintained for sixty minutes or more. During the boil the wort is sterilized
and concentrated to the proper sugar density, haze causing proteins are removed (hot break),
and light caramelization occurs that deepens the flavor and color of the beer. One of the
most important things to occur during the boil is the addition of hops. Hops for bittering are
added early in the boil, while those for flavor and aroma are added later.

Cooling – Following the boil, the wort is pumped through a heat exchanger to cool it as
quickly as possible to fermentation temperature. Rapid cooling minimizes the danger of
bacterial contamination and causes more haze causing proteins to precipitate out of the wort
(cold break).

Fermentation – Yeast is added once the wort has reached the


desired temperature for fermentation. Brewers call the addition of
yeast pitching. Once the yeast has been pitched the wort can
properly be called beer. Fermentation can last a few days or a few
weeks depending of the strain of yeast and the strength of the
beer. During the process the yeast reproduce and then metabolize
the sugars, making C02, alcohol, and a host of other flavorful and
aromatic compounds that add complexity to the beer. During the
height of fermentation the beer is capped by a thick creamy foam
called kreusen. Once the available sugars have been consumed the
yeast cells clump together or floc and fall to the bottom of the
fermenter.

Conditioning – With fermentation complete, the beer is


removed from the yeast and pumped to a conditioning or
bright tank where it is stored at near freezing temperatures that cause most of the remaining
yeast to drop out of suspension. Hops can be added at this point as well, a step known as dry
hopping that lends the beer additional hop flavor and aroma. Once the beer is clear it is ready
to filter and package.

Making beer is easy. Using the proper ingredients and following the steps outlined above will
result in beer. Making good beer is hard. Brewers make choices at every step of the process,
from ingredient selection to determining mash and fermentation temperatures, that all have
significant effects on the quality of the end product. It takes skill, scientific knowledge, and a
certain amount if intuition to put all the pieces together in the production of great lagers and
ales. Brewing really is a craft.

Son muchos los recursos que un estudiante puede utilizar para la adquisición de nuevos
vocablos en inglés. Un uso frecuente es tomar nota y consultar en el diccionario lo cual
es fundamental en el inicio, pero hay mejores formas: las lecciones anteriores presentaban
técnicas muy útiles para el fin que se persigue, el cual es inferir el significado de nuevos
vocablos.

Ahora bien, la utilización de sinónimos es otro recurso valioso, en el momento de aclarar


dudas con relación a significados de palabras. En una determinada lectura por ejemplo, el
escritor utiliza diferentes términos para sustituir otro del que ha hecho referencia
anteriormente. En este caso el uso de términos sustitutos, un recurso normal en la escritura
y la conversación, puede desviar al lector de la comprensión de las ideas que realmente
quiere transmitir, la persona que habla o escribe, pero este mismo medio lo puede llevar a
la comprensión clara y exacta de la lectura.

Muchas palabras tienen sinónimos ( otras palabras que significan lo mismo) y


antónimos ( palabras que significan lo opuesto).
Por ejemplo:

Sinónimo: Reduce Diminish / Black Dark


Antónimo: Reduce Increase / Black White
Remain Stay / Beautiful Pretty
Remain Leave / Beautiful Ugly

Chiefly significant from the nutritional standpoint, we find the sugars in the imitation fruit
juice beverages to be prime source of energy. The kind and concentration of sugars in
imitation fruit juice drinks vary. In general, the sugar content of these drinks has a range of
10 to 14%. Sucrose is used as the natural sweetener in most juice type beverages. Sucrose
in both dry and liquid form is suitable. Assuming the quality meets the N.S.D.A.
standards, the sucrose can be from cane or beets.
Liquid invert sugar, 50-50 glucose and fructose, is available and can be used in juice
type beverages. Also, a blend of dextrose and sucrose liquid sugar is acceptable as a
sweetener for some type beverages, that is, if the sweet taste character does not have to
be predominant. Liquid sugar, produced from corn starch to yield a blend of glucose
and fructose up to 90% is suitable for many fruit juice beverages.

Large users of liquid sugar install stationary storage tanks of suitable size, depending on
the quantities used, with permanent piping and pumps for pumping the liquid sugar from
the point of delivery to the storage tank and from the storage tank to the flavor or finished
syrup mixing tanks. 2-The storage tanks are generally provided with ultraviolet lights, fans
and screened air vents to prevent growth and reproduction of yeast and other
microorganisms in the liquid sugar.
3-The storage tanks are designed to give ideal storage conditions for both the 67° Brix
liquid sucrose and 76° Brix liquid invert liquid sugar, or blend of liquid sucrose and
dextrose. 4-The tanks are constructed of mild steel or other suitable materials which will
not contaminate the liquid sugar with any foreign taste, odor, or mineral. 5-The tentative
standards which follow apply to dry granulated sugar only, and are not applicable to liquid
sugars. 6-Furthermore, these standards apply to sugar as produced, immediately prior to
packing

Containers.—For protection of the product, “Bottlers” sugar shall not be packed in
cotton or fabric bags but shall be packed in multi-wall paper bags or equivalent
sanitary package or bulk containers.
Container Identification.—Each container shall be marked or coded to make it
possible for the sugar producer to identify the place of production and date of
packing.
Designation of Type.—Each container shall be marked “Bottlers”.
Ash.—The ash content of “Bottlers” sugar shall not be more than 0.015%.
Color.—The solution color of “Bottlers” sugar shall not be more than 35 reference
basis units.
Sediment.—The sediment content of “Bottlers” sugar shall not be more than shown
on prepared sediment disc available from American Bottlers of Carbonated
Beverages, 1128 Sixteenth Street, N.W., Washington, D.C. upon request.
Taste and Odor.—"Bottlers" sugar shall have no obviously objectionable taste or
odor in either dry form or in ten per cent sugar solution prepared with tasteless,
odorless water.

QUALITY CONTROL

1) Production of imitation fruit juice beverages requires the closest attention to quality
control at every step of the process. This includes incoming raw materials, proper water
treatment, clean and sterile packages, good manufacturing practices, and in-plant quality
control tests. In these days of high volume and high speed manufacturing, the primary
objective of a production manager must be to produce a high quality product.

8
For the purposes of discussion on the subject of quality control of imitation fruit juice
beverages, let us consider three aspects of quality control; (1) advantages of quality control;
(2) requirements for a quality control program; and (3) guidelines on the operation of a
quality control program in a fruit juice drink manufacturing plant.
Managers of fruit juice plants know and are firmly convinced that there are many
advantages in establishing and maintaining an effective quality control program. They
realize and have experienced the functions of a well-balanced quality control system. For
instance, they know that good quality control program in the plant will: (1) protect
production costs by preventing and detecting defects in products packed; (2) protect the
consumer and assure that he gets a quality product with good "eye appeal”, (3) maintain
plant requirements in order to meet local, state and federal good manufacturing practices;
(4) protect and control the use of quality raw materials as water, sugar, acids, preservatives,
flavors, and packages; (5) generate pride and increase morale of production personnel; (6)
assist in product liability problems; (7) improve production efficiency; (8)assist in plant
layout, design and space requirements; (9) improve waste control, (10) aid in plant safety;
(11) minimize company criticism; and (12) assure sales department that produces are what
customers want to buy.

Pre-reading task

1. What do you know about organic food?


2. What do you know about organic food in your city?
3. Do you believe that organic food is more healthy than other kind of food?

Look at the reading:

Are organic foods really more nutritious than non-organic foods? Read about this issue in
the reading practice exercise below. You can find the meaning of the words in bold in the
vocabulary list under the text, and you can check your understanding by doing the Organic
Foods Comprehension Quiz.
Organic food is very popular these days. It can also be very expensive. Some organic food
costs twice as much as non-organic food. Parents of young children, and even some pet
owners, will pay high prices for organic food if they think it's healthier. But many others
think organic food is just a waste of money.
There is one main difference between organic and non-organic food. Organic farms do not
use agricultural chemicals such as pesticides that stop insects from damaging crops. In
many countries foods that claim to be organic must have special labels that guarantee
they're grown organically.
Some people think organic also means "locally grown", and originally this was true. But
over time organic farming has become big business, with many organic foods now being

10
grown by large agricultural companies that sell their products far from where they're
grown. Processed food made with organic ingredients has also become more popular. At
first, only small companies produced these products. But as demand overtook supply, big
food companies that had been selling non-organic products for many years also began
selling organic products. Small organic food companies found it difficult to compete with
these big companies, and many didn't stay in business much longer.

Is organic food safer and more nutritious? This is an important part of the debate. Many
farmers and consumers believe it is. They think agricultural chemicals can cause serious
illnesses like cancer, but there isn't much evidence proving this is true. However recent
studies have shown that eating organically-grown produce reduces your chances of
developing heart disease. Many doctors think it's more important to stop dangerous bacteria
from contaminating foods. These bacteria can contaminate both organic and non-organic
fruit and vegetables, and doctors recommend washing produce carefully before eating it.
Meat, fish and chicken can also become contaminated, so washing your hands
before handling these foods is also very important. Many doctors also believe we should
reduce the amount of sugar in our diets, and there is a lot of evidence to support this idea.
They recommend carefully checking the list of ingredients on processed food and drinks for
all the words that really mean sugar, like glucose, sucrose and fructose. And they remind us
that the aim of most big food companies is to make lots of money, even if they damage our
health while doing so. This means processed foods that are called "organic" can also be
very unhealthy if they contain lots of sugar.

Most people agree that naturally grown food tastes better. Is tastier food worth the extra
money? That's a matter of opinion. Whether organic food is healthier or not is still not
clear, so more research is needed. However, consumers of organic food often say "better
safe than sorry" when it comes to what we eat.

What Happens to Your Body When You Eat Fruit and Vegetables

Most mothers aim to get as much good food into their children as they can. Of course what
you consider as good food largely depends upon what you have been taught, and where
your information has come from.
My mother was interested in health and nutrition. Every single day of the year, rain or shine
or snow, we had a salad at lunchtime. This used to greatly surprise my school friends, for
whom salads belonged to Summer time only.
However, in our mid-teens these same friends were asking why I didn't have any spots,
with more than a hint of envy. Your diet will always display itself on your skin!

Multi nutrients packaged by nature


Fruit and vegetables contain a wide range of vitamins, minerals, essential fatty acids and
antioxidants. Provided that the fruit and vegetables you eat are grown in organic conditions
you can obtain a range of these vitamins and minerals from them.
Nature presents these in single foods where they work together for the best possible result.
You will never find that a fruit or vegetable only has one beneficial vitamin or mineral,

23
they may have more of one, but will also contain others. Instead of generalizing about this,
two actual examples are:
Bananas: these are high in potassium but they also contain 10 other minerals, and 14
vitamins.
Sweet potatoes: these are high in beta carotene or vitamin A, and vitamin C, yet also have
some B vitamins and the minerals calcium and potassium.
Eating a variety of fruit and vegetables will give you a selection of these nutrients.

Fruit and vegetables quench thirst


The 'water' that we obtain from fruit and vegetables is life giving. Why? Because it cleanses
our bodies inside in a way that normal water does not. Harvey Diamond writes of this in his
book, 'Fit for Life,' which was written as a way to lose weight.
Yet it is far more than a weight loss plan, because it offers the way to balance your body
internally, using the principles of healthy living, Harvey explains that high water content
foods are the only ones that will cleanse and feed you. Only fruit and vegetables fall into
this category – any other food is a concentrated food, for example grains, meat, dairy and
legumes.
Just consider how important this is to the healthy function of your body. When you take in
plenty of natural water in fruit and vegetables, it is having an effect on your cells. It is
passing on all the information your cells need to reproduce perfectly, and to keep your body
in top condition. This is not to say that you do not need to drink water, but rather, that this
alone will not cleanse and nourish in the way that fruit and vegetables do.

How to eat more fruit and vegetables


Of course to keep the most life giving nutrients, it is important to not cook your vegetables
or fruit to death! The more of these that can be eaten raw (or steamed) the better it is.
Nature gives them to us as a complete food, as often some of the most important nutrients
are just under the skin, so by peeling vegetables that only need scrubbing clean, you lose
these.
If they are to be cooked, use coconut oil, as this is the only oil that does not spoil at high
temperatures.

24
Eating seasonally and locally also means that you are getting the best quality, as the foods
will not have been transported far. The closer to the vegetable garden your plate is, the
fresher your food will be.
Fruit must be eaten ripe, not over or under ripe for the most benefit. If you have even tried
to catch a pear like this, you will know it is not as simple as it sounds!
Also it is best to eat fruit before and not after other foods.
Two of the easiest ways to get plenty of fruit and vegetables in your diet is to juice them
and /or make smoothies – dairy free for best health giving results. Rather than looking to
common standard recommendations of 5 per day, your daily consumption needs to be at
least 50% of your complete food intake, leaning towards more vegetables than fruit.
Your body will thank you for eating more fruit and vegetables, and as it adjusts to this you
will thank your body – for all the energy and vitality you have.

INCIDENCIAS ESTRUCTURALES QUE DIFICULTAN LA PERTINENCIA DE
UN VOCABLO

REGLAS DE SPELLING
Las siguientes son algunas de las reglas que se deben aprender porque se aplican a
muchas palabras y no se consiguen en el diccionario.
REGLA 1
Cuando una palabra de una sola silaba termina en consonante presidida de una vocal,
doble la consonante y agregue el sufijo Por ejemplo:

Run + ing = Running


Sad + est = saddest
Fat + er = fatter
Cut + able = cuttable
Bat + ed = batted

REGLA 2
Cuando una palabra es multisílaba y termina en consonante presidida por una vocal, y es
acentuada fonéticamente en la silaba final, se duplica la consonante y se agrega el
sufijo.Por ejemplo:

Begin + ing = beginning


Ocuur + ence = occurrence
Prefer + ed = preferred

REGLA 3
A. Si una palabra termina en “e” silenciosa, es decir, no se pronuncia, elimine la “e” y
agregue el sufijo que empieza con una vocal. Por ejemplo:

30
Take + ing = taking
Write + ing = writing
Desire + able = desirable
Relieve + able = beliable

B. Cuando una palabra termina en “e” muda, es decir no se pronuncia, no elimine la “e”
cuando el sufijo empieza con consonante. Por ejemplo:
State + ment = statement
Like + ness = likeness
Use + full = usefull

C. Cuando una palabra termina “ce” o “ge” no se elimina para mantener el sonido suave
de “c” o “g” antes de sufijos que empiezan con “a”, “e” u “o”. Por ejemplo:

Charge + able = chargeable


Noticce + able = noticeable
courage + ous = courageous

REGLA 4
A. Las palabra que terminan en “y” presidida por una consonante, cambie la “y” por “i”
antes de agregar el sufijo, excepto aquellas que empiezan con “e”. Por ejemplo:
Happy + est = happiest
Beauty + full = beautifull
Hurry + ed = hurried
Sky + es = skies
Carry + ed = carried
Theory + es = theories

B. Las palabras que terminan en “y” presidida por una vocal, mantenga la “y” antes de
agregar un sufijo.Por ejemplo:

31
Gay + est = gayest
boy + ish = boyish
enjoy + ing = enjoying
play + s = plays

EXCEPCIONES:

Day + ly= daily


Pay + ed = paid
Say + ed = said
Lay + ed = laid

In a live animal, these protein filaments make
muscles contract and relax. Both actions require
enormous amounts of energy, which they get from
the energy-carrying molecule ATP (adenosine
triphosphate). The most efficient generation of
ATP requires oxygen, which muscles get from
circulating blood.

Muscle fibers, or cells


ATP powers muscle contraction
After an animal is slaughtered, blood circulation
stops, and muscles exhaust their oxygen supply.
Meat is mostly the muscle tissue of an animal. Muscle can no longer use oxygen to generate ATP
Most animal muscle is roughly 75% water, and turn to anaerobic glycolysis, a process that

assorted proteins. Muscles are made of bundles ATP from glycogen, a sugar stored in muscle.
of cells called fibers.Each cell is crammed with
filaments made of two proteins: actin and The breakdown of glycogen produces enough
myosin energy to contract the muscles, and also produces
lactic acid. With no blood flow to carry the lactic
acid away, the acid builds up in the muscle tissue.
If the acid content is too high, the meat loses its
water-binding ability and becomes pale and
watery. If the acid is too low, the meat will be
tough and dry.

33
Lactic acid buildup also releases calcium, which causes
muscle contraction. As glycogen supplies are depleted,
ATP regeneration stops, and the actin and myosin
remain locked in a permanent contraction called rigor
mortis.
Freezing the carcass too soon after death keeps the
proteins all bunched together, resulting in very tough
meat.
Beef muscle fibers with blowup of
a coiled protein Aging allows enzymes in the muscle cells to break
down the overlapping proteins, which makes the meat
, before cooking tender.
Individual protein molecules in raw meat are wound-up
in coils, which are formed and held together by bonds.
When meat is heated, the bonds break and the protein
molecule unwinds. Heat also shrinks the muscle fibers
both in diameter and in length as water is squeezed out
and the protein molecules recombine, or coagulate.
Because the natural structure of the protein changes,
this process of breaking, unwinding, and coagulating is
Alanine, a simple amino acid
called denaturing.

Most of meat's flavor develops when it is cooked. The


amount of fat in meat influences its flavor, as does a
process called the Maillard reaction. Flavor can also
be added to meat through brining and marinating.

The Maillard reaction occurs when the denatured


proteins on the surface of the meat recombine with the
sugars present. The combination creates the "meaty"
flavor and changes the color. For this reason, it is also
called the browning reaction. The Maillard reaction
occurs most readily at around 300° F to 500° F. When
meat is cooked, the outside reaches a higher
A glucose molecule
temperature than the inside, triggering the Maillard
reaction and creating the strongest flavors on the
surface. In the early twentieth century, Louis-Camille
Maillard happened upon what came to be known as
the Maillard reaction when he was trying to figure out
how amino acids linked up to form proteins. He
discovered that when he heated sugars and amino

a lower concentration of a solution to
a higher concentration through a semi
permeable membrane.

34
Fat, an energy source stored in animal muscles, also contributes to the flavor of meat.
Water is the most prevalent component of meat, and most of the flavor-carrying, or aroma,
molecules are hydrophobic (repelled by water). These molecules dissolve in fat. Meat's fat
content varies from animal to animal, and within each animal, it varies from part to part.
Muscles that are used often consume the stored-up fat, and so the meat from these areas
doesn’t have much fat.

Areas that aren't used as much don't use as much energy, so there is fatter in these cuts. The
animal's age also plays a role in how much fat is in the meat. The older the animal, the
more time it has had to build up fat-pocket energy reserves in its muscles.

Marinades are usually made up of three components: acid, oil, and herbs. The acid helps to
partially denature the meat's proteins, opening up "tunnels" in the meat structure where
flavor can seep in. But marinades mostly penetrate only the surface. Marinades work best
on meats such as chicken breast and fish, because the muscle structure is not as dense as it
is in steak. For denser meat, marinades work best when the meat is cut into smaller pieces
so the marinade can penetrate a larger surface area. However, if marinades are left on too
long, the acids can "cook" the surface, causing the meat to dry out. Some meats, such as
pork and steak, can marinate for hours. Other less dense cuts of meat, such as chicken
breast and most fish, only need to stay in a marinade for a short time.

Brining meat (that is, putting meat into a salt-water solution) adds moisture to the meat
through osmosis. Osmosis happens when water flows from a lower concentration of a
solution to a higher concentration through a semi permeable membrane. In meat, this
membrane is the plasma membrane that surrounds the individual cells. When meat is placed
in brine, the meat's cell fluids are less concentrated than the salt water in the brining
solution. Water flows out of the cells in the meat and salt flows in. The salt then dissolves
some of the fiber proteins, and the meat's cell fluids become more concentrated, thus
drawing water back in. Brining adds salt and water to the cells so that when the meat is
cooked and water is squeezed out, there is still water left in the cells because water was
added before cooking.

Cattle that are bred for consumption are often fed large amounts of food in
order to increase the amount of fat that normally occurs. The fatter in a piece
of beef, the more "marbled" its appearance; that is, the more white streaks of
fat there are. Marbled steaks are considered to be some of the most flavorful
beef cuts.

As a result of the health risks that may be associated with consuming too
much red meat, pork is now a popular alternative to beef. Pigs that are
slaughtered are, for the most part, fairly young, and their muscles haven't
built up energy reserves. There are some pork cuts that are naturally fatty, such as bacon,
but breeders are now using techniques to produce leaner pork. The result is that many pork
cuts now have about the same amount of fat as the white meat in chicken.

35
With fish, it's a different story. The fat in fish comes from the oils distributed throughout
their flesh; it isn't stored in pockets as it is in beef and pork. These oils have subtle flavors
in and of themselves, and they contribute to the flavor of the fish.

There are basically two types of meat: dark and white.


Red or dark meat is made up of muscles with fibers
Beef that are called slow-twitch. These muscles are used for
extended periods of activity, such as standing or
walking, and need a consistent energy source. The
protein myoglobin stores oxygen in muscle cells,
which use oxygen to extract the energy needed for
constant activity. Myoglobin is a richly pigmented
protein. The more myoglobin there is in the cells, the
redder, or darker, the meat.

Pork
When dark meat is cooked, myoglobin's color changes
depending on what the meat's interior temperature is.
Rare beef is cooked to 140° F, and myoglobin's red
color remains unchanged. Above 140° F, myoglobin
loses its ability to bind oxygen, and the iron atom at
the center of its molecular structure loses an electron.
This process forms a tan-colored compound called
hemichrome, which gives medium-done meat its color.
When the interior of the meat reaches 170° F,
hemichrome levels rise, and the myoglobin becomes
metmyoglobin, which gives well-done meat its brown-

gray shade.

White meat is made up of muscles with fibers that are


called fast-twitch. Fast-twitch muscles are used for
quick bursts of activity, such as fleeing from danger.
These muscles get energy from glycogen, which is

quality when it is raw. When it's cooked, the proteins denature and recombine, or
coagulate, and the meat becomes opaque and whitish.

Cows and pigs are both sources of dark meat, though pig is often called "the other white
meat." Pigs' muscles do contain myoglobin, but the concentration is not as heavy as it is in
beef. Chickens have a mixture of both dark and white meat, and fish is mainly white meat.
Different types of meat require different cooking times. The best way to determine if meat
is done is to use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. Beef can be cooked

36
to a variety of temperatures: rare (140° F), medium (160° F), and well-done (170° F). Pork,
chicken, and fish have less leeway. It's recommended that pork be cooked to 170° F,
chicken to 180° F, and fish to 165° F.

Vegetables, cereals and milk products are important in our nutrition
because they provide us important nutrients for our body like proteins,
carbohydrates and vitamins. Also, there are other important products as
necessary as the others. They are fruits, meat, sugar, drinks.
All of them are necessary for the normal functioning of our organism
and we must include them every day in our meals.

As in the model, write a composition about what do you think about the importance of
a good nutrition in our health.
