Review for NOCTI Cook 2 test – 3 hours, 2 sessions Based on information from Foundations Textbooks
2
Standardized Recipe Written in a format that is clear to anyone who uses it Critical to control cost, quality and consistency of product Ingredients are listed in order of use
3
Recipe Title Ingredients Amounts Time and Temperature Yield – how many or how much Method - Directions
4
Measuring Measure wet and dry ingredients Equivalents ◦ 16 T = 1 cup ◦ 3 teaspoons = 1 Tablespoon ◦ weight use a balance scale or digital scale ◦ 30 grams = 1 ounce ◦ 480 grams = 1 pound
5
Wet or Liquid 8 fluid ounces = 1 cup 2 cups = 1 pint 2 pints = 1 quart (32 ounces) 4 quarts = 1 gallon (128 ounces) Equipment: liquid measures and ladles
6
Gallon Man
7
Conversion Factor CF What you want divided by what you have is the formula New divided by old Example: need 48 brownies, recipe yields 24 ◦ 48 divided by 24 = 2 ◦ CF is 2 Multiply by 2 Bread is by count – 2 slices per sandwich unless it is a multidecker sandwich
8
AP/EP Amounts A/P means as purchased E/P is edible portion – what remains after trimming and cleaning A/P amount is always larger than the E/P because you have trimmed away part of the product – Example, a peeled and trimmed potato is less than original weight
9
Terms for cooking Mise en place = everything in it’s place Saute Braise Blanch Temper
10
Sanitation Food handlers – anyone who handles food including servers Food handlers – no jewelry except plain band ring, no nail polish or acrylic nails Handwashing – 20 second scrub with hot water – 105 degrees Bandage wounds Wear gloves when handling ready to eat food
11
Sanitation Staph infections contaminate from open cuts Sore throat and fever – cannot work around food Stay home with vomiting, diarrhea or a diagnosed foodborne illness
12
Foodborne Illness Foodborne illness – disease transmitted to people by food Foodborne illness outbreak – 2 or more people sick from same food CDC – Center for Disease Control monitors foodborne illness High risk populations- very young children, elderly and people with chronic illness – have undeveloped or compromised immune system
13
Three Categories of Contamination Biological pathogens contaminate food Chemical Chemicals remain on food due to improper washing (produce) or cleaning chemicals get into food Physical Hazards fall into food such as a hair, fingernail or a natural hazard remains in food such as fish bone
14
Biological Contaminants 4 types of pathogens ◦ Viruses (Most common way food is contaminated) ◦ Bacteria ◦ Parasites ◦ Fungi ◦ 5 th type may be toxins or poisons ◦ Contaminants can survive freezer temps.
15
Foodborne Illness E-Coli Beef, ground meat and dairy Salmonella – poultry, eggs, chicken Botulism Canned Goods Staphylococcal Aurous From cuts, wounds
16
FATTOM Acronym for conditions that promote bacteria to grow F Food protein, heat treated grains A Acid food with little or no acid T Time time in danger zone T Temperature 41 - 135 degrees O Oxygen M Moisture
17
Sanitation Cross Contamination – pathogens move from one food to another Time temperature abused - when food is left in danger zone Temperature danger zone – 41 – 135 degrees Only way to monitor is with thermometer
18
Thermometers Bimetallic Stemmed Thermocouple and thermistor Surface probe checks only surface temp – such as grill temp. Take temperature in thickest part of meat and hold temp. for 15 seconds
19
Receiving Cold food receiving temps between 41 and 32 degrees Eggs – receive temp of 45 degrees or lower Frozen foods – 32 degrees or lower. Check for ice in packages
20
Prep Thaw food in cold water, in refrigerator or microwave – (cook immediately if thawed in micro.) It is acceptable to thaw some foods as part of cooking process – such as burgers on grill in frozen state
21
Cooking 165 degrees Poultry 155 degrees – ground meat and eggs that will be hot held for service 145 degrees – Seafood, steaks, chops and pork. Eggs served immediately. Roasts 135 degrees commercially processed ready to eat food that will be hot held such as cheese sticks 135 degrees Vegetables and grain
22
Prevent cross contamination Clean and sanitize workstations, cutting boards and utensils after use, changing tasks and 4 hours Keep ready to eat away from raw meat/seafood Have different, separate work stations Limit time in danger zone
23
HACCP 7 principles to identify major hazards during any point in flow of food Hazard Analysis Critical Control Point Principles 1 & 2 identify and potentially hazardous food on menu Principles 3, 4 and 5 establish prevention methods such as monitoring temperatures Principles 6 & 7 verify and assess system works
24
HACCP Terms Critical Control Point – point in flow of food where contamination may occur Critical Limit – requirement that can be measured such as cook chicken to 165 degrees for 15 seconds
25
Cleaning and Sanitizing Cleaning removes surface dirt Sanitizing reduces pathogens to a safe level Surfaces – order of work ◦ Clean ◦ Rinse ◦ Sanitize ◦ Air dry
26
3 compartment sink Clean Rinse Sanitize (chemical sanitizer)
27
Master cleaning schedule What is to be cleaned Who is to clean When it should be cleaned How it should be cleaned
28
Knives Chef Knife French Knife All purpose Paring Knife Trim Vegetables and Fruit Boning Knife Take meat/poultry from bone Bread Knife Serrated edge Slicer Butcher – Scimitar Long curved blade Cleaver – chops through bones, etc.
29
Parts of a Knife Point Tip Blade Back Heel Tang Bolster
30
Parts of a knife
31
Sharpening a Knife Sharpening stone to grind and hone edges Sharpen at 20 degree angle to stone Honing steel – removes broken pieces and realign the blade
32
Knife Safety Keep knives sharp Use for intended purpose Do not put in dishwasher Do not leave soaking in water Do not point at anyone Allow dropped knives to fall Do not hand knife to another person
33

37
Cooking Methods Heat transfer Conduction Convection Radiation
38
Cooking Methods – Dry, Moist and Combination Dry heat the food must be tender or you may need to add moisture: Barding - Wrap lean meat with bacon Larding – Insert strips of fat into meat Marinating – soak in combination of wet and dry ingredients
39
Dry Methods without fat Broil Heat source above food Grill On grill rack away from heat source Roast Dry heat – oven Longer than baking Bake Dry heat - oven
40
Dry with Fat Griddling Saute’ Stir Fry Pan Fry and Deep Fry
41
Moist Heat Methods Simmering Submerged in liquid just below boiling Poaching and Shallow poaching 160 – 180 degrees. Shallow has combination of liquid and steam – good for delicate fish Blanching Drop in boiling water, partial cook Then ice bath, finish elsewhere Steaming Above the liquid in steam basket
42
Combination Good for less tender meats Braising – large cuts of meat – Seared then cooked partially covered in liquid ◦ Low and Slow Cooking Stewing – smaller cuts that are blanched or seared and then cooked in liquid
43
Plating and Portioning Portioning is how much to serve – overportioning results in lower profit Plating is decision as to how to serve Garnish enhances the food – edible and simple
44
Nutrition and Cooking Dietary Guidelines – fruits, vegetables, whole grains and low fat milk products Recommended Dietary Allowances – Nutrient standards for Americans My Plate replaces My Pyramid – Guide to eat a balanced diet
45
Nutrients Protein – builds body tissue – meat, poultry and dairy. 15% Daily Intake Carbohydrates - Provide Energy Whole grains, sugars in fruits and vegetables (35% of daily intake) Fats – Choose Unsaturated (liquid) when possible. 35% daily intake
46
Nutrients Vitamins Minerals Water About Fat: Hydrogenated fats are solid at room temperature – Solid, least healthy
47
Vitamins Fat Soluble A, D, K, E ◦ (Americans Don’t Kill Elephants) ◦ Store in body in fat Water Soluble ◦ B vitamins and C ◦ C deficient scurvy
48
Salt Reduce salt - Too much salt causes hypertension which is high blood pressure

68
Cooking Fruits and Vegetables Retain nutrients Avoid long holding times Broil, Bake, Poach, Steam healthy vegetables Fried, Creamed not so healthy
69
Grains and Legumes Foundation of world’s food supply Inexpensive and plentiful Source of complex carbohydrates Legumes are seeds from pod producing plants Grains are grasses
70
Legumes Soak to shorten cooking time – throw away any that rise to the top Rinse canned beans to eliminate salt Use as protein alternative Boiling is most common cooking method
71
Grains Grasses that grow edible seeds Whole grains – have not been milled Bran is source of fiber Endosperm is starch (white bread) Germ is rich in nutrients Grains of America – wheat, oats, rye, corn, buckwheat, barley and rice
72
Store Grains Cool, dry place 6 inches from floor Long shelf life Cooked grains are a potentially hazardous food
73
Pilaf Saute the grain or rice Then bake in oven (can be done on stovetop) Adding acid lengthens cook time
