    INTRODUCTION OVERVIEW In this module, students will study the agricultural trends in their region to identify the cultural groups that have settled there throughout history. Agriculture and cuisine are fundamental cultural expressions. This module integrates community life with the environment as students begin to delve into the relationship between people and the land. Students will begin to understand how the culture of their community was formed through the complex way in which each culture satisfied their nutritional needs. ESSENTIAL QUESTION Throughout the history of New York State, how have the state’s cultural communities met their food needs?

  • Influence of Spontaneous Fermentation on Some Quality Characteristics of Maize-Based Cowpea-Fortified Nixtamalized Foods
    INFLUENCE OF SPONTANEOUS FERMENTATION ON SOME QUALITY CHARACTERISTICS OF MAIZE-BASED COWPEA-FORTIFIED NIXTAMALIZED FOODS Emmanuel Ohene Afoakwa *, Samuel Sefa-Dedeh, Agnes Simpson Budu, Esther Sakyi-Dawson & Justice Asomaning Emmnuel Afoakwa Corresponding author Email: [email protected] Department of Nutrition and Food Science, University of Ghana, P. O. Box LG 134, Legon-Accra, Ghana 1 ABSTRACT Spontaneous fermentation has been identified to improve the quality characteristics of foods derived from them. When combined with cowpea fortification and nixtamalization, it is expected to improve the nutritional, functional, physico-chemical and sensory qualities of maize based foods thereby improving the qualities as well as broadening the food processing techniques in sub-Saharan Africa. This study was therefore aimed at investigating the influence of spontaneous fermentation on the functional, physico-chemical and sensory characteristics of maize-based cowpea- fortified nixtamalized foods. A 3x3x2 factorial experiment with fermentation time (0, 24, 48 h), cowpea (0, 10 and 20%) and alkaline treatment (nixtamalized and non- nixtamalized maize) was used. Samples were analyzed for pH, titratable acidity and water absorption capacity (27°C and 70°C). The blends were dried using the cabinet drier, milled into flour and processed into a snack food. The cylinder probe test was used in a TA-TX2 Texture Analyzer to measure the hardness of processed snack foods and sensory analysis was conducted to determine the acceptability of the snack products. The pH of all the nixtamalized samples decreased with fermentation time and cowpea fortification with concomitant increase in titratable acidity. Cowpea addition caused decreases in the pH from 9.68 to 6.12 in the unfermented nixtamalized samples.

  • Corn Germ with Pericarp in Relation to Whole Corn
    ISSN 0101-2061 Ciência e Tecnologia de Alimentos Original Corn germ with pericarp in relation to whole corn: nutrient contents, food and protein efficiency, and protein digestibility-corrected amino acid score Gérmen de milho com pericarpo em relação ao milho inteiro: conteúdo em nutrientes, eficácia alimentar e protéica e digestibilidade protéica corrigida pelo escore de aminoácido Maria Margareth Veloso NAVES1*, Maiza Vieira Leão de CASTRO2, Aline Luiz de MENDONÇA2, Grazielle Gebrim SANTOS2, Maria Sebastiana SILVA2 Abstract The germ fraction with pericarp (bran) is generated in the industrial processing of corn kernel, and it is used for oil extraction and animal feed. This study evaluated the nutritional and protein quality of this fraction in relation to whole corn. The proximate composition, mineral contents, and amino acid profile of the germ fraction with pericarp and of whole corn were determined. A 4-week experiment was conducted using 36 weanling male Wistar rats, and three 10%-protein diets (reference, germ with 15% lipids and casein with 15% lipids), two 6%-protein diets (whole corn and casein), and a protein-free diet were prepared. The germ showed higher contents of proteins, lipids, dietary fiber (27.8 g.100 g-1), ash, minerals (Fe and Zn- approximately 5 mg.100 g-1), and lysine (57.2 mg.g-1 protein) than those of corn. The germ presented good quality protein (Relative Protein Efficiency Ratio-RPER = 80%; Protein Digestibility-Corrected Amino Acid Score-PDCAAS = 86%), higher than that of corn (RPER = 49%; PDCAAS = 60%). The corn germ fraction with pericarp is rich in dietary fiber, and it is a source of good quality protein as well as of iron and zinc, and its use as nutritive raw material is indicated in food products for human consumption.

We endeavour to keep this resource as up to date as possible, however given the fast- paced nature of research, and changing FODMAP of some foods there may occasionally be a discrepancy. Introduction to the Low FODMAP Diet Research shows that following a diet that is low in FODMAPs can help relieve symptoms of irritable bowel syndrome (IBS). FODMAPs are sugars that are found in food and are poorly absorbed in people with IBS. FODMAPs stands for Fermentable Oligosaccharides, Disaccharides, Monosaccharides and Polyols. They act as a food source to bacteria that live in the large intestine. When they are not absorbed properly, they are fermented. This can result in bloating, flatulence, abdominal pain, diarrhoea, constipation, nausea and other gastrointestinal symptoms. It is important to remember that high FODMAP foods are not always the only culprit for IBS symptoms. Consider being aware of your reaction to fatty foods, caffeine, alcohol, fibre (excess or lack of), medications and stress, which may also influence your symptoms. What are FODMAPs? Oligosaccharides Fructans, which mostly comes from wheat products and some vegetables. It also includes inulin (a type of fibre), which is often added to yoghurt, and fructo-oligosaccharides, which are found in packaged foods. Fructans are poorly absorbed by all individuals, we just differ in the amount our body can tolerate them.
