Download or read book An Analysis of Natural Food Preservation written by and published by . This book was released on 2014 with total page 26 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The overall goal of this thesis project was to identify possible gaps in knowledge about food preservation and storage in a sustainable food system. The project was a result of many months of both documented and undocumented academic observations and various field experiences as farm volunteer and an assistant. These experiences were combined with an analysis of the role of season extension and local provisions as tools to restructure the food system, and added up to a project that provides opportunities to observe and learn about consumer and grower perceptions and knowledge about fresh vegetables versus preserved vegetables. Natural food preservation as an innovative tool for season extension production and to foster understanding of natural food preservation concepts as critical components of a sustainable food system was examined in this project. Traditional food preservation as a tool for increasing food access and a possible strategy for season extension was explored. Historic and cultural knowledge transmissions as concepts in food preservation, employing both historic standpoints and compared to the current trends in the United States were assessed. From a macro level, food preservation was examined at a global perspective with critical examination of different methods over time to identify energy efficiency, at minimum cost and minimum environmental impact based on how food preservation supported preindustrial food systems. Dehydration, fermentation, natural cold storage and canning methods all offered different ways of thinking about the history and culture of food preservation. The second component of the project incorporated the most sustainable preservation method in developing a course "Sustainable Food Preservation" to reintroduce the indigenous food preservation and as a strategy for season extension production. The proposed course, documents: Food Preservation Pre-Implementation Plan, Course Syllabus, Course Evaluation and Weekly Activities are listed Appendix C. " -- Introduction.

Download or read book Food Composition and Analysis written by Leonard W. Aurand and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2013-11-11 with total page 699 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There is an increasing demand for food technologists who are not only familiar with the practical aspects of food processing and mer chandising but who are also well grounded in chemistry as it relates to the food industry. Thus, in the training of food technologists there is a need for a textbook that combines both lecture material and lab oratory experiments involving the major classes of foodstuffs and food additives. To meet this need this book was written. In addition, the book is a reference text for those engaged in research and technical work in the various segments of the food industry. The chemistry of representative classes of foodstuffs is considered with respect to food composition, effects of processing on composition, food deterioration, food preservation, and food additives. Standards of identity for a number of the food products as prescribed by law are given. The food products selected from each class of foodstuffs for lab oratory experimentation are not necessarily the most important eco nomically or the most widely used. However, the experimental methods and techniques utilized are applicable to the other products of that class of foodstuff. Typical food adjuncts and additives are discussed in relation to their use in food products, together with the laws regulating their usage. Laboratory experiments are given for the qualitative identification and quantitative estimation of many of these substances.
