Unit Culinary Applications Sensory Properties of Food ‘To use seasonings and flavorings success fully, foodservice professionals must under stand sensory perception. Sensory perception Js how a person's eves, nose, ears, mouth, and skin detect and evaluate the environment Sensory perception will help you improve your ability to taste, Improved taste will help you to Increase your customers’ enjoyment of food. Sensory properties of food alfect how people perceive food, These sensory prop erties are color and appearance, flavor, and texture, Each one is detected by the five sense organs: the taste buds, nose, ears, skin, and eves. (See Figure 16.1) When people eat, they use these sense organs to evaluate the food. This is done with special receptors, or groups of cells that receive stimuli. Stimull are things that cause an activity or response. When a stimulus Is detected, nerve impulses carry the signal to the brain, where its processed. When’ the stimulus is food, the sense organs of taste and smell cause @ that increases the production of saliva.

This means you must be absolutely sun color and appearance of food wil be visually appealing to customers, Otherwise, it ay not matter how good the fod tastes Lighting Different types of lighting alfect how we see color: Foodservice professionals should be aware that the way that they see food in Kitchen lighting may not be the way that the customer sees the food in dining room lighting. For example, when the color green is viewed under an incandescent light, it wil appear more yellow than when it is viewed under fluorescent lighting. Warmer lighting tends to make food look more appetizing. from the other senses to be that the Sensing Quality Customers use thei senses ta determine the quality ofa dish hy sit, important tba food ook eppeating onthe plate?

How does fighting ofc this pate offend? Physical Structure ‘The physical structure of food affects color: For example, spinach és made of plant cells that contain a large amount of liguid. These plant cells are surrounded by air pockets. When raw spinach is cooked, air escapes from the pockets, and the plant cells burst. This causes the air pockets to fill with liquid, and the cooked spinach looks darker: Because ight reflects off liquids differently than it does ai; cooked onions appear translucent, oF clea rather than opaque, or cloudy Chemical Structure The chemical struct appearance. For example, the pigments, the chemicals that give vegetables their color ‘change during the cooking process. Pigments found in foods can be red (as in beets), white {as in cauliflower), green (as in broccoli), and xellow (as in squash). When properly cooked, pigments remain bright. When overcooked pigments become dull, Foods with dull pig rents are also often mushy in texture, and of food also affects have lost nutritional value 422 Units Culinary Applestions Aroma The perception of aroma is more comp than the perception of taste. Humans can detect hundreds, even thousands, of distinetly different aromas, The sense of smell allows people to differentiate between similar fla- vors, suchas anorangeanda tangerine, People can actually “taste” the different flavors, Nerve Endings Nerve endings that are just below the skin throughout the mouth and nose are responsible for detecting flavors. They allow you to feel the menthol in peppermint an the carbon dioxide in carbonated beverages. In fact, people who have lst their senses of taste and smell can often still detect the presence of certain flavors with these nerve endings Texture The last sensory property of food that must be evaluated is texture, The characteristics of fexture can vary greatly. For example, cooked rice can be rough or smooth, sticky or slick, hard or soft, moist or dry, chewy or crumbly Flavor ‘The sensory property of flavor, or taste, Is ‘4 combination of three sensory experiences: basie tastes, aromas, and toueh, through nerve endings. Peaple'sperception of these three sen sory experiences is chemical in nature. Salt, for instance, changes the chemistry of certain taste buds. This change in chemistry sends a signal to the brain that travels through nerve fibers, The brain translates this signal into the perception, or awareness, of saltiness Tastes ‘The basic tastes are: sweet, salty, sour fand bitter, Sometimes savory ('8.va-8) is included. Savory means stimulating and fall of flavor Tastes are detected by buds. A taste bud is a specialized cell for tast- ing that is scattered over the surface of the tongue. In addition to taste buds, saliva plays ‘an important role in taste perception, With out saliva, the sweeteners, salts, acids, and bitter components of food could not reach the taste eels The texture depends on the type of rice and hove it was prepared, ‘Sound also plays a part. Taste can some- times depend on crunch, such as for crisp vegetables or tortilla chips. Sometimes one characteristic stands out, but- foodservice professionals should practice identifying food textures as completely as possible Texture Evaluation Foodservice professionals themselves to pay attention to the texture of all loods. Ask these questions when you evalu- ate the texture of food! How does the food feel against the soft tissue in the mouth? How does the food react to being squeezed, pulled, bitten, or chewed? Is it hard? Does itbounce back Iike gelatin? Is it crumbly? ‘When you evaluate texture, you will need to see how food reacts to being eaten, How does the food react to the warmth of the mouth? For example, the smoothness of ice cream and chocolate depend in part ‘on how quickly and completely they melt in your mouth, ‘Translucent Onions Raw onions are opaque, while cooked onions are translucent Why des this happen?

It is believed that favor enhanc rs interact with certain taste chemicals and receptors in your mouth, This produces a different perception of how foods taste with the enhancer than how they taste alone. ———— Chapter 16 Seasonings and Flavorings 423, their customers like and dislike. This helps food companies to design products that the customers will find tasty Customers test foods based on thei likes and dislikes, but other food taste testers need to evaluate food objectively: Their job is to describe only the sensory cl teristics, To increase the objectivity of the evaluations, bind taste tests are often done on food, A blind taste test means that the food samples are not labeled so that the testers will not know \which product they are tasting, ‘You will need a lot of practice to suecess- fully recognize and identify the many sensory characteristics of food. Culinary skills involve putting favors together The process of sensory evaluation, however; is one of taking flavors apart Product Factors Different versions of the same type of food ‘may taste or smell different from each other For example, one vinaigrette (vini“aret) dressing may taste more sour than another even though they both contain the same amount of acid. Several factors shape the characteristics ofa food produit. ‘Type of Ingredients Vinaigrette dressings are made of oil Vinegar; and herbs, Different. vinaigrettes ‘may contain the same amount of acid, How ever, if they contain different types of acid, they will not taste the same, For example, if fone vinaigrette is made from vinegar and the other is made from lemon juice, the vinai srette with vinegar will seem more acidic. Product Temperature and Consistency Products that are warm usually have @ stronger flavor and aroma than those that are cold, Thicker products may have less flavor than thinner ones, This is because flavor molecules take longer to dissolve or evaporate in saliva when food products are thicker Amount of Oil and Water ‘The amount of oil or water in foods will affect the perception of taste and smell, A taste chemical that dissolves in oil will not fully dissolve in saliva, Because of this, litte of it will teach the taste buds, When an edor chemical dissolves in water or oil, it will not evaporate to the olfactory cells where it can De smelled, Plate Composition The SAUECORBORHGR. or the way in ‘which foods are arranged on a plate, should be carefully planned even before the food is. cooked. appearance, height, shape and temperature of foods ste contrasts in color and texture, flavor Color and Appearance The colors of food presented on a plate should be vibrant and contrasting.
