  • Development and Quality Evaluation of Meat Floss from Beef, Chevon and Pork
    DEVELOPMENT AND QUALITY EVALUATION OF MEAT FLOSS FROM BEEF, CHEVON AND PORK BY Olayemi Rashidat KASSIM B. Sc. (Agric), M. Sc. (Animal Science) (Ibadan) A THESIS IN THE DEPARTMENT OF ANIMAL SCIENCE SUBMITTED TO THE FACULTY OF AGRICULTURE AND FORESTRY IN PARTIAL FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY OF THE UNIVERSITY OF IBADAN JUNE 2013 UNIVERSITY OF IBADAN i ABSTRACT Meat Floss (MF) is a meat product traditionally produced from beef. The MF is a shredded meat product that is light, easy to pack and nutrient retaining. However, information on yield and nutritional quality of MF has not been well documented. Therefore, MF from beef (MFB), chevon (MFC) and pork (MFP) were developed and evaluated for yield and quality. The raw beef, chevon and pork were obtained from thigh muscle and analysed for Dry Matter (DM) and Crude Protein (CP). The samples were cooked, shredded, fried for production of MF (MFB, MFC and MFP) and analysed for Product Yield (PY), DM and CP using standard procedures. Eating Qualities (EQ): aroma, flavour, tenderness, juiciness and texture were determined using a 9-point hedonic scale. Shelf stability of MF when differently packaged in acrylic bottle, polyethylene and polyamide for 21 days were assessed by measuring levels of Thiobarbituric Acid Reactive Substances (TBARS) using standard procedure. Based on EQ for MFB, Semi tendinosus (St), Semi membranosus (Sm) and Bicep femoris (Bf) obtained from raw beef were used to produce MF from St (MFSt), Sm (MFSm) and Bf (MFBf) using soya oil and their PY, CP and EQ were assessed.

Chinese cuisine is also known for its width of cooking methods and ingredients as well as food therapy influenced by traditional Chinese medicine. China is an ancient civilisation and Chinese cuisine developed with it through its 5,000 years of recorded history. It can safely be assumed that in the remote, primitive beginnings of mankind’s existence, our ancestors across the face of the earth all led a life eating what has been described as ‘raw meat with fur and blood’. There was no such thing as cooking until much later, when fire was discovered, and food was then ‘cooked’, although without any seasonings to speak of. So it was many, many millennia later that cultivated plants and domesticated animals began to provide the bulk foodstuff for people, and the gathering of wild fruits, nuts, berries and other edible materials as supplements to the human diet became commonplace. Only then was a different ‘food culture’ said to have been created, with regional variations, which was based on the natural distribution of plants and animals from area to area.

  • Cantonese Cuisine, Lesson 1
    Lesson ONE Flavors of China Shandong Sichuan Zhejiang Hunan Fujian Taiwan Cantonese Guangdong Cuisine Guangdong is a paradise of delicate foods. Cantonese cuisine refers to the cuisine of China’s Guangdong province. It is one of the eight traditional cuisines of China, originating from an area known as Lingnan. Guangdong cuisine is heavily influenced by its subtropical climate and long coast line which provide abundant ingredients. Cantonese cuisine features light and fresh flavors with clear and fragrant smells. Light foods are served in summer and autumn, and heavier foods in the winter and spring. Cantonese cuisine is particular about the freshness of their primary ingredients, but it also uses a long list of preserved food items to add flavor to a dish. These include Chinese sausage, century egg, and salted pork. With its own climate characteristics and customs, Cantonese culture has formed a complete system of cooking skills and unique cooking characteristics. Cantonese cuisine has more than 20 cooking methods. Stir-frying and steaming are the main methods. Other methods include braising, baking, stewing, shallow frying, and deep frying, double steaming and so on. What’s more, Cantonese cuisine emphasizes decorating and color. In Cantonese cuisine ingredients such as garlic, spring onion, soy sauce, rice wine, cornstarch, sugar, salt, vinegar, scallion oil, and sesame oil are used to enhance flavor. Tea culture is also an important part of Cantonese cuisine, Cantonese like to drink tea and eat delicious snacks and delicate dim sum. Long-boiled soup is the soul of Cantonese cuisine. The reason Cantonese prefer long-boiled soup is closely related to the subtropical climate which is humid and warm in Guangdong all year round.

In the early Qing Dynasty, the best known and most influential cooking styles were the traditional “four major schools of Chinese cuisine” — Sichuan, Shandong, Guangdong and Jiangsu cuisines, which represent the West, North, South and East China cuisines respectively. Later, four new schools of Chinese cuisine were added to form the “eight major schools of Chinese cuisine” — Shandong, Sichuan, Jiangsu, Guangdong, Fujian, Zhejiang, Hunan, and Anhui cuisines. 2 Shandong cuisine is famous for its wide selection of materials and use of diverse cooking methods.

  • Chinese Cuisine
    CHINESE CUISINE INTRODUCTION The cuisine of china is marked by the by the precise skills of shaping, heating, color way and flavoring. Chinese cuisine is also known for its width of cooking methods and ingredients as well as food therapy influenced by traditional Chinese medicine. History: The diet of the common people in pre-modern times was largely grain and simple vegetables, with meat reserved for special occasions. China emerged as one of the world's earliest civilizations in the fertile basin of the Yellow River in the North China Plain. It has been ruled subsequently by the following dynasties • Southern and Northern dynasties • Tang Dynasty • Song dynasty • Mongol Yuan Dynasty • Ming dynasty • Qing dynasty • Republic of china and then the Peoples Republic of China Four key developments contributing towards the Growth of cuisine historically are as follows: • The expansion of Han culture from the upland stretches of the Yellow River across a huge and expanding geographical area with climate zones ranging from the tropical to the subarctic, each providing new ingredients and indigenous cooking traditions; • An elaborate but continually developing traditional medicine which saw food as the basis of good health ("Food was medicine and medicine, food"); • Constantly shifting demands from elites – beginning with the imperial courts and provincial governors but eventually expanding to include rich landowners, "scholar-gourmands", and itinerant merchants – for specialised cuisines, however far away from home. • Continuous absorption of diverse foreign influences, including the ingredients, cooking methods, and recipes from invading steppe nomads, European missionaries, and Japanese traders. Geographic Location: China is the world's second largest state by land and the most populous country in the world.
