  • Lactic Acid Bacteria in Philippine Traditional Fermented Foods
    Chapter 24 Lactic Acid Bacteria in Philippine Traditional Fermented Foods Charina Gracia B. Banaay, Marilen P. Balolong and Francisco B. Elegado Additional information is available at the end of the chapter http://dx.doi.org/10.5772/50582 1. Introduction The Philippine archipelago is home to a diverse array of ecosystems, organisms, peoples, and cultures. Filipino cuisine is no exception as distinct regional flavors stem from the unique food preparation techniques and culinary traditions of each region. Although Philippine indigenous foods are reminiscent of various foreign influences, local processes are adapted to indigenous ingredients and in accordance with local tastes. Pervasive throughout the numerous islands of the Philippines is the use of fermentation to enhance the organoleptic qualities as well as extend the shelf-life of food. Traditional or indigenous fermented foods are part and parcel of Filipino culture since these are intimately entwined with the life of local people. The three main island-groups of the Philippines, namely – Luzon, Visayas, and Mindanao, each have their own fermented food products that cater to the local palate. Fermentation processes employed in the production of these indigenous fermented foods often rely entirely on natural microflora of the raw material and the surrounding environment; and procedures are handed down from one generation to the next as a village-art process. Because traditional food fermentation industries are commonly home-based and highly reliant on indigenous materials without the benefit of using commercial starter cultures, microbial assemblages are unique and highly variable per product and per region. Hence the possibility of discovering novel organisms, products, and interactions are likely.

Food fermentations represent an extremely valuable cultural heritage in most regions, and harbour a huge genetic potential of valuable but hitherto undiscovered strains. Holistic approaches for identification and complete profiling of both culturalable and unculturable microorganisms in global fermented foods are interest to food microbiologists. The application of molecular and modern identification tools through culture-independent techniques has thrown new light on the diversity of a number of hitherto unknown and uncultivable microorganisms in naturally fermented foods.

  • Traditionally Preserved Fish Products Are Largely Confined to East And
    Traditionally preserved fish products are largely confined to east and south-east Asia which are still produced principally on a cottage i,ndustry or domestic scale (Adams, 1998). As commonly applied, the term 'fermented fish' covers two categories of product (Adams et a/., 1985): (i) fish-salt formulations, e.g. fish sauce products such as the fish ' . pastes and sauces tend to contain relatively high levels of salt, typically in the range 15-25% and are used mainly as a condiment; and (ii) fish­ salt-carbohydrate mixtures, e.g. pla-ra in Thailand and burong-isda in the Philippines. In hot countries, particulady in rural areas, fermented fish products continue to play a vital role in adding protein, flavour and varietY to rice-based diets (Campbell-Platt, 1987). Table (A) summarises some of the corrimon traditionally processed fish ,~Jroducts of Asia. Among the fermented fish products, the more widely used are fish sauces and pastes (van Veen, 1965; Orejana, 1983). In the fish-salt­ carbohydrate product, lactic fermentation occurs and contributes to the ex.tended shelf life (Adams et a/., 1985; Owens and Mendoza, 1985). Lactic acid fermented products can be prepared in a shorter time than the fish-salt products, which depend primarily on autolytic processes I , and offer greater scope for low-cost fish preservation in South East Asia than the simply, low water activity products (Adams et a/., 1985). The pri~cipal carbohydrate source used in these traditional lactic fermented products is cooked rice, although in some products partially s~ccharified rice (mouldy rice: ang-kak, or pre-fermented rice) is used or, on occasion, sniall amounts of cassava flour, or cooked millet, e.g; sikhae in Korea (Lee, 1984).
