  • Pancakes Around the World
    Pancakes Around the World Grades 6-12 ELA, Science, Math, Social Studies, PE Objectives Students will read about Pancake Tuesday, conduct further research and write a short play about the event for Pre-K - 2nd grade students and organize a pancake race for those students. Students will learn about pancakes in other cultures and choose one pancake and culture for in-depth research. Students will perform hands-on activities to understand chemical reactions with leavening agents which produce carbon dioxide in baked foods. Students will extract yeast from common foods. Students will apply mathematical principles to increase and decrease a recipe to produce the number of servings needed. Vocabulary baking powder—a mixture of baking soda, cream of tartar and cornstarch that forms carbon dioxide (CO2) when mixed in dough or batter baking soda—the common name for sodium bicarbonate. When combined with acidic substances, forms CO2. carbon dioxide—a clear gas with no odor or taste that is a byproduct of respiration. In cooking, it is the result of chemical reactions between ingredients or growth of yeast. leavening—a substance added to food which makes carbon dioxide (CO2) bubbles form in batter or dough yeast—a microscopic member of the fungi family that needs food and moisture to grow - used in baked foods to help them rise Background Pancakes as we know them today were invented in medieval Europe. Throughout Europe pancakes had a place among Easter foods, especially on Shrove Tuesday, the last day before Lent. Since Lent is a time of reflection, abstinence and sacrifice, everyone prepared by getting rid of perishable rich foods such as eggs, butter, cream and milk.

  • Introducing New Uses of Dry Peas, Lentils, and Chickpeas to the U.S
    INTRODUCING NEW USES OF DRY PEAS, LENTILS, AND CHICKPEAS TO THE U.S. FOOD INDUSTRY WITH EDUCATIONAL WORKSHOPS AND TECHNICAL DEMONSTRATIONS FY 2008 US farmers harvest ~2.6 million pounds of dry peas, lentils, and chickpeas each year. Nearly 75% is exported whereas domestic market consumption has remained fairly stagnant for over 20 years. Several years ago, the pea and lentil industry embarked on a major product development initiative to explore the use of dry peas, lentils, and chickpeas as ingredients in high-value food products. Moving more of these commodities into the domestic market would create new markets while decreasing grower and processor transportation costs significantly. This project represents Phase 2 of an initiative to introduce the concept to US food manufacturers of using dry peas, lentils, and chickpeas as ingredients to create a wide range of new high value foods that have not traditionally contained legumes such as biscuits, cookies, beverages, tortillas, nutrition/power/energy bars, dry starch mixes, flatbreads, pizza crusts, vegetarian spreads, and sauces. In Phase 1, key food industry professionals were reached at selected trade shows; additional technical research was conducted on the physical, chemical, and functional properties of the products; the technical research needs of R&D professionals were assessed; and work began to compile a comprehensive technical manual to guide product development specialists, nutritionists, and other food industry professionals in utilizing these new products. In Phase 2, the Washington Dry Pea and Lentil Commission (WDPLC) hosted an educational session at the Institute of Food Technologists Annual Meeting and Food Expo in June 2009 that attracted over 40 attendees who learned about nutritional attributes and health benefits, use and functional properties of legumes as ingredients, and potential new applications in value-added products.

  • Flatbreads: Old World Meets New
    [Bakery/Cereal] Vol. 18 No. 10 October 2008 Flatbreads: Old World Meets New By Klaus Tenbergen, CMB, CEPC, ASBPB, MCFE, Contributing Editor During the past 100 years, we have seen many changes in the baking industry. Regardless of the many forms it takes, bread is still one of the oldest and most universal foods eaten today. And while some bread is baked to great heights, others are left flat. A flatbread can be described simply as a baked grain product often made without the benefit of adequate gluten or gluten development. It can be a single- or double-layer creation. It can be baked, fried, steamed or dried. It can be round, rectangular, square or of no regular shape. The dough can be from a sole type of flour or a mixture of several. The types vary by region, climate, holiday and culture. The world is flat The term “flatbread” means different things to different cultures, running the gamut from Hispanic tortillas and arepas to Mediterranean pitas, Asian roti and African injera. Tortillas. One of the most-familiar mass-produced flatbreads is the tortilla—now as much a household staple in the United States as white bread. Tortillas have been around an estimated 9,000 years and can be made from ground corn or wheat flour. In “Gourmet Tortillas: Exotic and Traditional Tortilla Dishes,” Karen Howarth notes corn tortillas are a staple of southern Mexico, while northern Mexico enjoys flour and corn tortillas equally. All tortillas are single-layer, unleavened products. Corn tortilla ingredients include corn treated with lime; this “nixtamal” is then washed and coarsely ground to produce masa, which is formed into flat cakes, and cooked.

  • The Flavour Thesaurus
    The Flavor Thesaurus A Compendium of Pairings, Recipes and Ideas for the Creative Cook Niki Segnit It seems fitting to dedicate this book to a pair: my cooking adviser and mother, Marian Stevens, and my writing adviser and husband, Nat Segnit. Contents Introduction ROASTED MEATY CHEESY EARTHY MUSTARDY SULFUROUS MARINE BRINE & SALT GREEN & GRASSY SPICY WOODLAND FRESH FRUITY CREAMY FRUITY CITRUSY BERRY & BUSH FLORAL FRUITY Bibliography A Note on the Author Copyright Page “. lamb and apricots are one of those combinations which exist together in a relation that is not just complementary but that seems to partake of a higher order of inevitability—a taste which exists in the mind of God. These combinations have the quality of a logical discovery: bacon and eggs, rice and soy sauce, Sauternes and foie gras, white truffles and pasta, steak-frites, strawberries and cream, lamb and garlic, Armagnac and prunes, port and Stilton, fish soup and rouille, chicken and mushrooms; to the committed explorer of the senses, the first experience of any of them will have an impact comparable with an astronomer’s discovery of a new planet.” John Lanchester, The Debt to Pleasure Introduction I hadn’t realized the depth of my dependence on cookbooks until I noticed that my copy of Elizabeth David’s French Provincial Cooking had fingernail marks running below the recipes. Here was stark evidence of my timidity, an insistence on clinging to a set of instructions, like a handrail in the dark, when after twenty years of cooking I should surely have been well enough versed in the basics to let go and trust my instincts.
