What’s In
Preparing vegetables can be threatening for some people because they come in
all kinds of shapes and sizes, and have different flavours and textures. However, after
cooking them once or twice, and getting the feel of how to treat them, one will be able to
figure out the cooking methods or flavourings that suit them best.
Vegetables are cooked to improve their color, texture, and flavour. For the
reason that there are vast varieties, the cooking methods will also vary depending on
the preferred result. In professional food service production, vegetables are often
blanched or par cooked in boiling salted water as a mise en place step, and finished by
other cooking methods such as sautéing, frying, or roasting.
What’s New
Direction: Using the table below, give an example of the nine classification
of vegetables.
What Is It
The nutrient content, the taste and the texture of vegetable plants is affected the
way they are handled and cooked. With this reason, it is of utmost importance for
vegetables to be always washed before cooking or serving them raw.
Vegetables has to be prepared before they are served or used as an ingredient
in a cooked dish. Prior to preparation, you need to identify the various kinds of
vegetables and different tools and equipment needed in the preparation of vegetables
since it is an important factor to consider in the preparation of vegetables.
Classification of vegetables
Vegetables is a category of food which can be obtained from any part of plant
which is edible. The edible parts can be stem, leaves, flowers, roots, tubers and
sometimes fruits.
1. Stem Vegetables
It is an edible part of the plant which shoots from the roots or bulb and it always
grows above the ground unlike roots or bulb. Examples are Artichoke, Asparagus,
Celery, Fennel, Bamboo, and Shoots.
2. Leaves Vegetables
Vegetables that are leafy belong in this category such as spinach, cabbage,
water cress, lettuce, bok choy, gai lan, choy sum, brussels sprouts, witloof, silverbeet,
radicchio, kale, collard leaves, Swiss chard, mustard leaves, and fenugreek leaves .
3. Flower Vegetables
Plants that has flowers is used as vegetables in the culinary world. They are
seasonal and abundant during a particular season of the year. Such plants are only
grown for their flower buds. Examples of these are cauliflower, broccoli, courgette
flowers, squash blossoms, artichoke, agati (dok kae, Thailand), banana flower, and
lotus.
4
4. Stalk or Bulb Vegetables
This is the part of the plant which grows just below the ground and is the portion
which is in between the stem and the root, the root actually comes out from the bottom
of the bulb. Bulbs are generally in layers of skin and they are very strong in flavour .
Examples are onion, garlic, spring onion, leek, kohlrabi, fennel and shallots.
This category include legumes which is used as food, it is actually the fruit of the
plant of which the seed is eaten, sometimes its peeled like green peas. Some example
are mungbean, garbanzos, coepea, kidney bean, soy bean and white bean.
6. Root Vegetables
This category includes plants of which roots are edible and is used as
vegetables. Usually long, round, and swollen taproot. Some examples of root
vegetables are beet, carrot, radish, horseradish, turnip, celeriac, daikon, enset, jicama,
konjac, maca, arrowroot, Chinese water chestnut, taro, and etc.
7. Tuber Vegetables
In this group are those plants in which the roots are modified and enlarged into a
swollen structure that is full of nutrients. They are usually located at the end of the plant
root attached as a lump of rock, e.g. potato. These vegetables are potato, cassava,
sweet potato, taro, Jerusalem artichoke, yam, yacon, kumara, etc.
8. Fruit Vegetable
The vegetables that bear fruits are under this category. But there are plants that
bear sweet and fleshy fruit that are eaten raw and plants of which grains or seed of their
fruit are used, do not fall in this category . Examples are beans, legumes, tomatoes,
avocado, bitter gourd, eggplant, caigua or bottle gourd, bell peppers, ackee, African
eggplant, ash gourd or winter melon, chayote and other plants.
9. Fungi Vegetables
Commonly known as mushrooms, and various types are available of which some
are edible and some are poisonous. Some examples are button mushroom, enoki,
oyster, shitake, truffles, portabello, boletus, chanterelles, grifola fondosa, morchella,
shimeji, straw mushroom, porcini, morel, etc.

2. Soaking
Do not soak vegetables for long periods to prevent flavor and nutrient loss.
Cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower may be soaked for 30 minutes in cold salted
water to eliminate insects.
6
Limp vegetables can be soaked briefly in cold water to restore crispness.

Serving
Fresh produce should be placed unrefrigerated on the table not longer than
two hours.
Use a cooler with ice or ice gel packs to transport or store cut fresh
vegetables at picnics or other summer events. Keep raw meats in a separate
cooler.
1. Sugar – Fructose – This is the natural sugar that provides the sweetness in
vegetables.
2. Glutamic Acid – This forms a product called monosodium glutamate when combined
with salt and is found in large amount from young and fresh vegetables
7
3. Sulfur compounds – It give the strong flavor and odor of some vegetables like onions,
leeks, garlic, chives, cabbage and broccoli.
1. Chlorophyll – a fat soluble compound responsible for the green color of plants. When
combined with acid, it forms pheophytin which produces an olive green color. When
combine with alkali, it forms chlorophyllins which produces a more intense green color.
The addition of baking soda when cooking that results to brighter green color, is an
example.
3. Flavonoids
Anthoxanthin – responsible for the yellow pigments
Anthocyanins – responsible for red and blue to violet pigments (beets)
tube, eggplants
What is a Standardized Recipe?
8
Benefits of Standardized Recipes
Standardized recipes offer a means to establish consistency in the quality of all
foods being made, in menu planning, and food and labor costs.
Understanding how to properly use standardized recipes guarantees that the
food being prepared is the same regardless of who does the cooking. The food should
be the same in taste, texture, yield, appearance, nutritional value, and cost. Following
the correct portion sizes listed on a standardized recipe helps to prevent running out of
food and also controls the amount of food wasted. Special Dietary
Needs/Accommodations The use of standardized recipes is also an easy way to keep
track of special dietary needs and/or accommodations of the children served.
Following a standardized recipe ensures that people on varying diets are
receiving the correct type and amount of food to meet their documented dietary needs
and restrictions. For children with food allergies, serving foods prepared from a
standardized recipe offers assurance to the child and to the parent that an additional
ingredient that may contain a major food allergen has not been added to the final
product.
If a cook strays from the standardized recipe by incorporating additional
ingredients, the product quality and portion sizes change, the cost increases, and the
potential of unknowingly serving an allergic child an allergen increases. This is a risk
that no one wants to knowingly take.
9
9. Cooking Temperatures and Time – This is the appropriate temperature and
amount of time needed for the highest quality product.
10. Food Safety Guidelines – Includes procedures designed to ensure the
safety the food being produced throughout the preparation and serving.
( i.e. cooking to proper internal temperatures, cross contamination)
11. Food Costs – This is the figured cost of one serving.
12. Nutrient Analysis Data – This is a listing of the nutrients per serving
(i.e. calories, protein, fat, carbohydrates, etc.)
