AND STARCH
DISHES
In this module, it covers only 2 lessons which are under of the same MELC:
The module focuses on:
LO3 Lesson 3 – Present Starch and Cereal Dishes with suitable
plating
and garnishing according to standards
LO4 Lesson 4 – Storing Starch and Cereal Dishes
What’s In
In this module you will learn all about starch and cereals.
What’s New
The term cereal is closely associated with breakfast cereals, a type of
processed food commonly eaten in the morning. However, cereals actually
encompass a wide range of food items that are produced from the seed of edible
grasses or plants.
What Is It
Presenting Starch and Cereal Dishes
Following are the factors to consider in presenting starch and cereal dishes.
1. Practicality. Is your presentation a
practical one? Here are some high
lights that help the presentations
practical
• Make sure serving size of cereal
dishes are correct.
• Do not allow large items to hide any
part of the presentation.
• Ensure that the garnish and slice
correlate.
• Proper arrangement of slices
towards the customer.

Storing Starch and
4 Cereal Dishes
Cereal grains, such as wheat, corn, rye, oat, rice, etc., are important
nutritional and energy sources for humans. They must be stored, transported and
conveyed using methods that preserve their quality. Storage varies with the
length of time ranging from short-term storage on farm for drying to long-term
storage for strategic reserves.
What’s New
Before we go further, let us determine how much you already know
about start and cereal dishes. Please use separate sheet of paper for your
answer.
Directions: Fill in the blanks with the correct answers.
1. A is a nutrient carbohydrate found notably in corn, potatoes,
wheat and rice, and is commonly prepared as a whole tasteless powder.
2. Modified Starches are those with structures altered by treatment with
.
3. When the newly gelatinized starch is stirred, more swollen granules break and
more starch molecules spill causing increase in .
4. when cooled, gelatinize amylase containing starches set
into a rigid gel.
5. this problem is usually encountered when using acid or acid
ingredients such as lemon or vinegar.
What Is It
Proper storage of food is very crucial in keeping food safe because the
manner and temperature of storage will affect the food ‘s susceptibility to
bacterial growth, other contaminants, and infestation. Storing food will not
FIFO (First In, First Out) in storing food is very important. Though it is a
long-time method in store-keeping where the first food stored should be the first
food to be out from the storage it is high time to make it a habit or put into
practice. Write the expiry date, date received and date of storage to the food
package and regularly check the expiration date.
1. Dry Pasta
• Remove the pasta from the store packaging if the noodles come in a box
or other non-airtight container.
• Place the noodles in a sealable plastic bag or other container that closes
tightly. For long noodles, such as spaghetti, use a tall plastic storage
container.
• Seal the bag or screw the lid on tightly. Store the pasta in a cool, dry place.
Dry pasta stores indefinitely, but should be used within two years to
prevent loss of flavor. Store dried egg noodles for up to six months.
• Dried pasta need not to be refrigerated. It can be stored on the shelf in an
airtight container in a dry area that is not exposed to extreme
temperature. Dried pasta can be stored indefinitely and still be safe to eat
but the USDA recommends storing dried pasta for no more than two years
to obtain the best quality. Some manufacturers will stamp their packages
with a "best if used by" date, which indicates that the flavor, color and
nutritional value may be affected if used beyond that date.
2. Cooked Pasta
• Pour the noodles into a colander. Allow as much moisture as possible to
drain. Noodles left in standing water become overly soft and mushy.
• Sprinkle 1 tsp. salad oil over the noodles. Toss the pasta so the noodles are
evenly coated in the oil. Salad oil prevents the pasta from sticking
together.
• Place the pasta in a tight-sealed container. Store in the refrigerator for
three to five days.
• Cooked pasta can be stored unsauced in an airtight container and
refrigerated for 4 or 5 days. The sauce should be refrigerated separate
from the pasta and can be stored for 6 or 7 days. This prevents the pasta
from soaking up too much flavor and oil from the sauce, which causes the
taste of the pasta to be drowned out. If the pasta is stored together with
the sauce, it should be eaten within 1 or 2 days to limit the amount of
sauce that is absorbed. If cooked pasta is not going to be used within the
suggested time period, it should be frozen and then it can be stored for
approximately 3 months. Frozen cooked pasta should be thawed in the
refrigerator and not on the kitchen counter.

3. Fresh Pasta.
• Fresh pasta should ideally be used on the same day as manufactured. This
is not always possible, but if it is used within the next two days it will give
adequate results. After this it tends to crack through excess drying. It must
be stored, keep it well-covered in the fridge, to minimize the risk of this
happening. Frozen filled pastas will keep for up to three months if held at
-18oC or lower.

Note: Please use another sheet of paper.
Activity 4.1
Direction: Write C if the statement is correct and X if the statement is wrong.
1. When refrigerating or freezing cooked pasta, be sure it is stored in
a well-sealed container so that it does not absorb any odor.
2. Frozen filled pastas will keep for up to 5 months if held at -18oC or
lower.
3. Frozen pasta does not have to be thawed before it is cooked.
4. Homemade pasta can also be allowed to dry thoroughly and then
placed in a plastic bag or airtight container.
5. Store dried egg noodles for up to six months.
What I Can Do
Performance task. We will ask the help of your mother or guardian in doing
and checking the performance task.
