The following wha 1.0 2.0 3.0 40 LAG MANUAL - PLANT PRODUCTS TECHNOLOGY J | 1 PRACTICAL: 4 TITLE: INTRODUCTION TO FOOD PROCESSING LESSON LEARNING OUTCOME AL the end of the session, students should be able to: 3.1 Differentiate between TRUE formulation and PROCESSOR'S formulation, 3.2 Convert TRUE formulation to PROCESSOR'S formulation and vice versa 3.3. Calculate and prepare solutions commonly used in food processing. 3.4 Determine pH and Brix of the given solutions. INTRODUCTION Products formulations can be written in either true % or processor's %. For the true %, _tolal ingredients is 100%. While for the processor's %, tolal ingredients is more than 100%. Usually the main ingredient is written as 100% in the processor's %. For a better understanding, refer to Table 1 that presents the formulation of sweet buns written in True and the Processor’s %, followed by the calculation to convert True % to Processors % and vice versa, Table 1: Formulation of simple sweet buns High protein flour Water Yeast Sugar Salt Butter To convert True % to Pocessor’s % Processor’s % = TRUE % for ingredient X 100% TRUE % for main ingredient Example: 2.88% x 100 = 5% 57.84% To convert Processor’s % to True # x 100 True % = Processor’s % for ingredient Total processor's. LAB MANUAL - PLANT PRODUCTS TECHNOLOGY 1 | 2 Example: 5% _ x 100 = 2.88% % Tr Preparation of solution A. Solution (%) The basis for solution (%) is equivalent to. weight of solute or substance in 100 ml. Total volume is 100 mi. 50% sugar solution is prepared by dissolving 60 9 sugar in woter or quid and made Lp t0.a final volume of 100 mil. Gan you see the difference if you dissolve 60 g sugar with 100 mi water? B, Solution (ppm) The basis for solution in ppm is equivalent to mg substance or solute in 1000 mi OR mg. substance in 1000 g sample. For example, to prepare 600 ppm sodium motabisulphite solution, ‘600 mg sodium melabisulphite is dissolved and made up to a final volume of 1000 ml. €. Soluble solid (Brix) Soluble soild is determined using a refractometer. Standard measurement should be done at 20°C. Brix readings decrease if the determination is carried out al a higher than the standard and conversely increase if determined at lower temperature. Whenever the reading is not done al standard temperature, correction should be made using a Reference Table to oblain the accurate velue. D. Concentrated solution ‘Sometimes an additive is used from a prepared concentrated solution since their amount is too ‘small. This situation is an option for those who do not have weighing machine that able to read to four or five decimal places. For example, 15 ml solution is drawn from 20% sodium metabisulphite solution and is used in 1 liter cordial preparation. You need to recalculate in order to determine the actual amount of sodium metabisulphite used, Actual amount sodium metabisulphite used therefore can be cetermine: 100 mi solution contains 20 g sodium metabisuiphite dy = 15ml x 20 10 mt 39 3g sodium metabisulphite in 1 liter. 3000 mg sodium metabisulphite in 4 liter, 3000 ppm.

The retention of nutritional value is betler in frazen products compared to canned or Giied products. This is bacause the exposure to heat treatment in freezing processing is less compared to canning and freezing. Consequently the flavour, taste, colour and firmness is better controlled: Recipes for foods destined for the freezer may also do better with the addition of a sauce or glaze, because this protects the food from dehydration when its passed under the freezing air blast, The freezing equipment is typically made from stainless steel end other metals. The gas used for freezing is most commonly ammonia. Freon is used in some systems, though because it breaks down the ozone layer, ammonia is more environmentally sound. Cryogenic freezing uses liquid nitrogen, Fruits and vegetables are usually frozen within hours of being picked, and when thawed, they are very close to fresh in taste and texture. The frozen meal is increasingly popular as it offers less time for preparation and if the meal can be heated in a microwave, total time from ireezer to table can be less than five minutes. Besides offering fresh taste and convenience, freezing is also 2 safe method of preservation, as most pathogens are inactivated at low tenperatures, RAW MATERIAL AND EQUIPMENT Raw materials Different types of fruits (such as apples, guava, Blast freezer mango, honeydew) Balance METHODS AND PROCEDURES 6.1 Freezing of fruits (with syrup treatment) 6.1.1 Select a few sound fruits and record their weight 6.1.2 Carry out the cleaning, peeling and pithing or pitting, 6.1.3 Slice, approximately 3 mm thick; or cul to approximately 1¢m cube 6.1.4 Immediately immerse the fruits in 300 ppm sodium metabisulphite solution for 18 minutes.

Many fruits nowadays are infused with sweetener prior to drying and sold as candied fruit. + Fruits can be dried whole (eg. Banana, plum, dates), in halves, made into pastes, of concentrate juices. The residual moisture content can vary from small (3-8%) to substantial (16 ~ 18%), depending on the type of fruits. Fruits can also be dried in puree form, as leather, or as powder by spray or drum drying. They can be freeze dried where fresh fruit is frozerr and placed ina drying chamber under vacuum. Heat is applied and water evaporates from the fruit while stil frozen, The fruit becomes very light and crispy and retains much of its original flavor. Dried fruits js widely used by the confectionery, baking and sweets industries where they impart sensory and functional characteristies to recipes.

INTRODUCTION Puff pastry is @ type of pastry product which consists of two main parts namely, dough and pastry margarine. The puffing effect will occur when the water droplets from pastry margarine layer vaporizes and emerges from the layers made during sheeting. The movement of water vapor pushes the dough to rise and pul. a Expansion rate of put! pastry depends on the amount of the pastry margarine. Increasing the amount of pastry margarine will increase the volume, Generally, 40-80% pastry margarine can be used to produce good puff pastry. ‘Types of flour used will also affect the quality of product. High protein flour prodice hard crust and less volume. Medium protein flour will produce the vice-versa (Le expand more and crispier). A good puff pastry will expand 8 times larger than the original size.

INTRODUCTION Choux pastry is a light pastry dough used to make cream puff, profiteroles and eclairs. It contains only butter, water, flour and eggs. It employs high moisture content to creaie steam during cooking to pul the pastry. Choux pastry is usually baked although it can be fried or boiled. ‘They are sometimes filled with cream or custard and used to make cream puffs or eclairs. Flour and eggs_in the formulation provide structure where decreasing amourt of flour will produce tender and thin shells. Tough shells will be oblained upon increasing amount of flour. Decreasing amount of eggs will produce pastry with low volume and thick shells. Excessive amount of fat cause the putts flatten during baking. Water normally control the thickness of the shells where shells become thin and tough upon increasing amount and decrease the amount wil make the shells thick and dry.
