Basic Dry Cooking Methods For Teachers: Brief Summary In recent years the practice and art of cooking has been on the decline. This may be due to ready-to-eat meals and takeaway options becoming more readily available, but has been fuelled in part by the lack of cooking knowledge and skills displayed by the average consumer. This program is an informative and in-depth look at the basic dry cooking methods, the first of two productions centred on the methods of cooking food. An overview of the methods of transferring heat is given then the program concentrates on the dry heat methods of cooking. The methods mentioned in detail are: Baking Roasting Grilling Broiling Barbequing Dry frying Shallow frying Deep-frying The dry methods of cooking are taught across many year levels, ranging from junior secondary level to tertiary levels. This program covers the basics of each dry cooking method in detail, with emphasis on equipment to be used, safety guidelines, foods suitable and best practice. Students’ will find the program valuable at all stages of schooling as it is suited to any secondary or tertiary stage. To add interest and give a greater perspective on the hospitality and food industry, this production shows the use of the dry cookery methods in both a commercial and domestic setting. Further areas to consider This program is content rich and therefore students would benefit from studying a chapter at a time. More than one viewing may be needed on some chapters due to the high level of information given. The chapters are ‘Heat Transfer Methods’, ‘Baking’, ‘Roasting’, ‘Grilling, Broiling and Barbequing’, ‘Dry, Shallow and Deep frying’. A practical application of each chapter’s method of cooking could be explored while working through the program. Outlined below are recipes, taken from Cookery the Australian Way (Cameron and Russell, 6th edition, 1998) that link to each method of cooking studied in this production: Baking- Macadamia nut cake, p403 Roasting- Roast tomato and capsicum risotto, p127 Grilling, Broiling and Barbequing- grilled bacon rolls, p175 Dry, Shallow and Deep frying- bok choy and ginger noodle stir fry, p187 Useful Related Websites www.foodsafety.vic.gov.au www.vhetta.com.au Other Relevant Programs available from VEA Catering for an Event Spick and Span If Only I'd...Health, Safety and Security Procedures in the Hospitality and Tourism Industries The Knives are Out: Using Kitchen Knives Correctly It’s a Blast!

Several raw food have antinutritional factors which are destroyed by cooking. However, if proper care is not taken while cooking, several important nutrients rae destroyed. So, it is very important to employ proper method of cooking to avoid nutrient loss. Some methods employed before cooking 1. Peeling: It is a method of removing the outer firm skin before cooking or eating fruit or vegetable. Some of vegetables & fruits are eaten with the peel. 2. Chopping It involves cutting of fruits & vegetables. Food is cut into several sizes to create variety in the cooked food 3. Grinding & pounding In grinding, the food is reduced to very fine form like spices. Sometimes cereals are also ground to powder. Pounding is also like crushing food to reduce thickness for easier cooking. 4. Soaking Pulses & legumes are soaked for few hours before cooking to make cooking easier. 5. Sprouting or germinating This method is used for pulses, legumes & grains. This method not only add variety to food, but also increases the content of vitamin C & vitamin B complex in the food.

  • Why Olive Oil Is the Best Oil for Frying
    Why olive oil is the best oil for frying October 14, 2016 Tweet Share Contrary to popular belief, olive oil is one of the best oils for frying. The medium-high smoke point of olive oil exceeds the temperatures needed for frying. Furthermore, olive oil contains oleic acid and minor compounds that protect the oil from breaking down, even after reuse. Frying is one of the most common and most delicious ways to prepare food. Throughout the Mediterranean, traditional foods like pescadillo, calamari, keftedes, patatas a la pobre, carcio alla giudea, and falafel are all fried in olive oil. Mediterraneans know that olive oil is the best oil for cooking and frying. So why do Americans believe that olive oil should only be used raw? The science Olive oil is one of the most stable oils for cooking. Unlike other common cooking oils, olive oil contains compounds and antioxidants that prevent the oil from breaking down under moderate heat. Additionally, olive oil is mostly composed of oleic acid (Omega-9), a monounsaturated fatty acid that is naturally resistant to oxidation. Multiple peer-reviewed studies have shown that olive oil is the best oil for frying. Olive oil outperformed vegetable, peanut, corn, soybean, sunower and canola oils. Olive oil can be heated to high temperatures - In 2013, Food Chemistry published a report comparing free radical formation and oxidation (rancidity) when heating peanut oil and extra virgin olive oil. The researchers found that more heat was needed to start the oxidation process in the extra virgin olive oil than in the peanut oil.

MASKEPATIL, 2PREETI .R. BHALCHAKRA 3RAHUL R. BIRADAR 1, 2, 3 Department of Mechanical Engineering, Rajgad Dnyanpeeth’s, Shri chhatrapati Shivajiraje College of engineering, Bhor, Pune, Maharashtra, India. ABSTRACT: Heat transfer is a very important aspect in the cooking process. Heating food destroys potentially harmful bacteria and other microorganisms, which makes food safe to eat and easier to digest. When food or liquids become hot, their molecules absorb energy, begin vibrating rapidly, and start to bounce off of each other. As they collide, heat energy is produced and transferred, which warms and cooks our food. Heat transfer is the process of an item or substance coming into contact with a heat source and becoming hot. In more scientific terms, heat transfer is an exchange of thermal energy between two objects. There are three methods of heat transfer namely conduction, convention and radiation. All these methods are being used in cooking methods. Taste and healthiness of the food is our prime requirement. Does mode of heat transfer affect the test and Vitamins and other contents in the food? Various cooking method and their corresponding mode of heat transfer has been discussed and investigated all aspects concerned with the topic . KEY WORDS: Cookware, Cooking methods, heat transfer in cooking I. Introduction: Human prime requirement of life to survive is food and water. Without food human can’t survive. From the ancient period, human has been changing his food from hunger”.
