  • Pages : 290 pages

Download or read book The Vinegar Cupboard written by Angela Clutton and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-03-07 with total page 290 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From food writer and historian Angela Clutton comes The Vinegar Cupboard, demonstrating the many great ways vinegars can be used to balance and enhance flavours, and enable modern cooks to make the most of this ancient ingredient. There aren't too many ingredients which manage to bring flavour and adaptability to recipes and are actively good for you, but vinegar manages it, and this must-have new book looks at how they have woven their way through culinary and medical history for thousands of years, and highlight the ways we can all benefit from vinegar in our diet. There is a growing interest in vinegars and a recognition of the role acidity plays in cooking, and within these page, Angela Clutton shows how much can be achieved using just red or white wine vinegar in your cooking, as well as exploring the vast array of vinegars available. The range of vinegars on the market are expanding rapidly, and you can easily find fruit, herb, sherry, cider, malt, rice, balsamic and many types of red and white wine vinegars (from rioja through to champagne) on your supermarket shelves. The Vinegar Cupboard encourages cooks to have an arsenal of as many varieties of vinegars as they can fit in their kitchen; while we don't expect everyone to have a vinegar cupboard, we'd like to think this book will encourage a vinegar shelf at least! Info-graphics and flavour wheels enhance the recipes, ensuring this is a usable and accessible book for all home cooks.

Book Vinegars of the World

    Book Details:
  • Author : Laura Solieri
  • Publisher : Springer Science & Business Media
  • Release : 2009-08-29
  • ISBN : 8847008662
  • Pages : 305 pages

Download or read book Vinegars of the World written by Laura Solieri and published by Springer Science & Business Media. This book was released on 2009-08-29 with total page 305 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Vinegars can be considered as acidic products of special importance for the enri- ment of our diet, and resulting from the desired or controlled oxidation of ethanol containing (liquid) substrates. The traditional use and integration of vinegars in numerous cultures can be traced back to ancient times. In fact, the cultural heritage of virtually every civilization includes one or more vinegars made by the souring action (of micro-organisms) following alcoholic fermentation. It has been do- mented that the Egyptians, Sumerians and Babylonians had experience and tech- cal knowledge in making vinegar from barley and any kind of fruit. Vinegar was very popular both in ancient Greece and Rome, where it was used in food prepa- tions and as remedy against a great number of diseases. In Asia, the first records about vinegar date back to the Zhou Dynasty (1027-221 BC) and probably China’s ancient rice wines may have originally been derived from fruit, for which (malted) rice was substituted later. The historical and geographical success of vinegars is mainly due to the low technology required for their production, and to the fact that several kinds of raw materials rich in sugars may easily be processed to give vinegar. In addition, vi- gars are well-known and accepted as safe and stable commodities that can be c- sumed as beverages, health drinks or added to food as preservatives or as flavo- ing agents.

Book Flavors and Nutrition in Beverages  Formation Mechanisms  Interactions  and Stabilizations

Download or read book Flavors and Nutrition in Beverages Formation Mechanisms Interactions and Stabilizations written by Wenjiang Dong and published by Frontiers Media SA. This book was released on 2023-11-24 with total page 121 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Flavor is an important evaluation indicator of beverage quality and has a significant impact on product quality ratings and consumer preferences. The variety and content of volatile and non-volatile compounds are the main reasons for flavor differences in beverages, while the type of raw materials and processing methods will affect the final flavors of the products. There are many kinds of beverages with a complex aroma and taste components. Accurate analysis of such volatile and non-volatile sensory substances is the key to studying their gustatory characteristic. There are hundreds of volatile components in beverages, mainly including aldehydes, ketones, alcohols, acids, and sulfur-containing compounds. In order to systematically study the chemical nature of the inherent aroma of beverages and their flavor formation mechanisms, it is necessary to focus on revealing the metabolic pathways of the key aroma substances at the molecular level. Additionally, it is important to explore the interactions between beverage matrices and aromas, as well as the elimination mechanisms for off-flavor formations. It is proposed that the combination of modern instrumental analysis with molecular sensory science, and in-depth discussions of the aroma formation pathways and aroma release mechanisms in beverages is a major focus of future aroma research.

Book Unquenchable

    Book Details:
  • Author : Natalie MacLean
  • Publisher : Penguin
  • Release : 2011-11-01
  • ISBN : 1101558881
  • Pages : 322 pages

Download or read book Unquenchable written by Natalie MacLean and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2011-11-01 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: We wine writers tend to be obsessive souls. How else can a person stay fascinated throughout a career with just one drink? Compare us to food writers: Over their lives, they'll encounter thousands of ingredients and ways of combining and cooking them. Wine, by contrast, is just fermented grapes. But it engages our primary senses-smell, taste, feel-in a way that is both hedonistic and cerebral. That's why I've spent the past several years traipsing around the world, visiting wineries, tasting their offerings, and searching for the world's best cheap wines. The narrative is as familiar as Arthur's quest for the grail and as naive as Dr. Seuss's plaintive search for the affirmative in Are You My Mother? With her signature conversational style, Natalie MacLean takes you on a whirlwind journey through the world of wine, searching for great taste at a low cost. By turns confessional-with guilty admissions from a penny-pincher who loves simple pleasures-and spirited, Unquenchable is informed by MacLean's decade-long career as an award-winning wine writer. In this engaging and enlightening book, MacLean recounts her adventures with the most passionate personalities in some of the most gorgeous, off-beat places in the world-from the crazed vintner who explains his philosophy while speeding down the Autobahn to the Sicilian winemakers you don't want to disappoint with your tasting notes. Yet there's plenty to take away from her inspired recommendations for food pairing to lists of favorite value wines and vintners, plus plenty of pointers that will enhance your own drinking pleasure.
