Handbook of Food Engineering

Handbook of Food Engineering

As the complexity of the food supply system increases the focus on processes used to convert raw food materials and ingredients into consumer food products becomes more important. The Handbook of Food Engineering Third Edition continues to provide students and food engineering professionals with the latest information needed to improve the efficiency of the food supply system. As with the previous editions this book contains the latest information on the thermophysical properties of foods and kinetic constants needed to estimate changes in key components of foods during manufacturing and distribution. Illustrations are used to demonstrate the applications of the information to process design. Researchers should be able to use the information to pursue new directions in process development and design and to identify future directions for research on the physical properties of foods and kinetics of changes in the food throughout the supply system. Features Covers basic concepts of transport and storage of liquids and solids heating and cooling of foods and food ingredients New chapter covers nanoscale science in food systems Includes chapters on mass transfer in foods and membrane processes for liquid concentration and other applications Discusses specific unit operations on freezing concentration dehydration thermal processing and extrusion The first four chapters of the Third Edition focus primarily on the properties of foods and food ingredients with a new chapter on nanoscale applications in foods. Each of the eleven chapters that follow has a focus on one of the more traditional unit operations used throughout the food supply system. Major revisions and/or updates have been incorporated into chapters on heating and cooling processes membrane processes extrusion processes and cleaning operations.

FDA and USDA Nutrition Labeling Guide Decision Diagrams Check

FDA and USDA Nutrition Labeling Guide Decision Diagrams Check

A workbook for day-to-day decisions Nutrition labels on various food products must comply with numerous ever-changing requirements. Items such as meat and poultry products food packages and dietary supplements are subject to stringent federal regulations-and the costs of compliance are often significant. The Nutritional Labeling and Education Act of 1990 (NLEA) imposed new mandates for labeling of many packaged food products; still others became subject to a voluntary nutrition labeling program. Following that lead USDA has imposed parallel labeling requirements. FDA and USDA Nutrition Labeling Guide: Decision Diagrams Checklists and Regulations provides hands-on information and guidelines for understanding the latest federal nutrition labeling requirements. This plain English analysis of FDA and FSIS labeling rules contains diagrams and tables and cites specific regulations. Decision diagrams walk the reader through volumes of information and make sense out of complicated regulatory processes. Checklists for managing information for developing specific labels help the reader track regulatory changes and document regulation applicability to company products. The RegFinder index references not only the text but also provides hundreds of regulatory citations referenced by topic. FDA and USDA Nutrition Labeling Guide: Decision Diagrams Checklists and Regulations will be of interest to food industry personnel responsible for compliance with federal nutritional labeling regulations food product developers and food technologists. Faculty teaching food laws and regulations and food product development will also find this book of interest. | FDA and USDA Nutrition Labeling Guide Decision Diagrams Check

As such it represents the first attempt at a comprehensive reference in molecular gastronomy along with a practical guide through selected examples to molecular cuisine and the more recent applications named note by note cuisine. While several books already exist for a general audience either addressing food science in general in a light way and/or dealing with modern cooking techniques and recipes no book exists so far that encompasses the whole molecular gastronomy field providing a strong interdisciplinary background in the physics biology and chemistry of food and food preparation along with good discussions on creativity and the art of cooking. Features: Gives A–Z coverage to the underlying science (physics chemistry and biology) and technology as well as all the key cooking issues (ingredients tools and methods). Encompasses the science and practice of molecular gastronomy in the most accessible and up-to-date reference available. Contains a final section with unique recipes by famous chefs. The book is organized in three parts. The first and main part is about the scientific discipline of molecular and physical gastronomy; it is organized as an encyclopedia with entries in alphabetical order gathering the contributions of more than 100 authors all leading scientists in food sciences providing a broad overview of the most recent research in molecular gastronomy. The second part addresses educational applications of molecular gastronomy from primary schools to universities. The third part provides some innovative recipes by chefs from various parts of the world. The authors have made a particular pedagogical effort in proposing several educational levels from elementary introduction to deep scientific formalism in order to satisfy the broadest possible audience (scientists and non-scientists).
