  • Fermented Foods
    Chapter 6 Fermented Foods Fermentation in food processing is the process of converting carbohydrate to alcohol or organic acids using microorganisms, yeasts or bacteria-under anaerobic conditions. Fermented foods are rich in probiotic bacteria so by consuming fermented foods the health of gut microbiome and digestive system can increase and also can enhances the immune system. Sauerkraut Sauerkraut is a finely cut raw cabbage that has been fermented by lactic acid bacteria. It is made by a process of pickling called lactic acid fermentation. The cabbage is finely shredded, layered with salt and left to ferment. Fully cured sauerkraut keeps for several months in an airtight container stored at 150C or below. The fermentation process involves three phases. In the first phase, anaerobic bacteria such as Klebsiella and Enterobacter lead the fermentation and beginning to produce an acidic environment that favors later bacteria. The second phase starks as the acid levels becomes too high for many bacteria and Leuconostoc mesenteroides and other Leuconostoc spp. take dominance. In the third phase, various Lactobacillus species including L. brevis and L. plantarum ferment any remaining sugars, further lowering the pH. Properly cured sauerkraut is sufficiently acidic to prevent a favorable environment for the growth of Clostridium botulinum, the toxins of which cause botulism. Tempeh Tempeh is a traditional Indonesian Soy product made from fermented Soybeans. The principal step in making tempeh is the fermentation of soybeans which undergo inoculation with Rhizopus spp. mold Rhizopus oligosporus. The beans are spread into a thin layer and are allowed to ferment for 24-36 hours at a temperature around 300C.

Vietnam's biodiversity Vietnam is located in Southeast Asia. The country has a north-to-south distance of 1650 km with a 3260 km coastline. Because of the differences in latitude, the climate changes from humid subtropical in the northern regions to tropical in the southern regions. Moreover, Vietnam has many different types of landscapes such as mountains, highland, delta flat and coastal lower flat as well as many types of ecosystems such as forest, agriculture, coral reef, mangrove, bay, lakes, hot spring, etc... Vietnam is reported to be one of the centers of high biodiversity in the world with 1300 animal species and 13700 plant species. Meanwhile, there is limited report on microbial biodiversity. An additional factor that influences on the microbial biodiversity is a number of 56 ethnic groups living in the highland and mountain areas through out the country with various life styles and traditional fermented foods. 2. Microbial biodiversity study and culture collection management Studies on microbiology have been started from 1960 at some leading institutions and universities including National Institute of Science and Technology, Hanoi University, Food Industry Research Institute, University of Agriculture, Hanoi University of Technology.

  • A Review of the Malaysia's Heritage Delicacy Alongside with The
    Ismail et al. Journal of Ethnic Foods (2021) 8:19 Journal of Ethnic Foods https://doi.org/10.1186/s42779-021-00095-3 REVIEW ARTICLE Open Access The Malay’s traditional sweet, dodol:a review of the Malaysia’s heritage delicacy alongside with the rendition of neighbouring countries Norsyahidah Ismail1, Muhammad Shahrim Ab. Karim1* , Farah Adibah Che Ishak1, Mohd Mursyid Arsyad2, Supatra Karnjamapratum3 and Jiraporn Sirison3 Abstract The Malaysia’s cultural heritage is authentic, unique and colourful with various local cuisines of different races and cultures. It is mainly originated from the Malay culture being the largest ethnic group in the country. The Malays themselves have contributed to many local cuisines ranging from appetiser, soup, main course and dessert. However, some Malay heritage foods have almost been forgotten and jeopardized in quality. This is especially happening to the Malay sweets or desserts which have gradually become less appealing to the younger generations. They are not even familiar with Malay foods, let alone consuming them. Among the popular Malay heritage foods in Malaysia are lemang, ketupat, rendang, wajik and dodol. Dodol specifically has been listed as one of the endangered heritage foods in Malaysia. Preserving the Malay cuisines is part of sustaining the Malay culture and this should begin with a great amount of knowledge and understanding about any elements within the culture itself. This article highlights a nostalgic and evergreen Malay’s traditional sweet, known by the locals as dodol by discussing its history, different types and names of dodol, as well as the recipes, preparation, cooking methods and packaging.
