Preface
C
omprehensive is the word that
describes Understanding Food. It
brings together the most current information in food science, nutrition,
and food service. Founded on research
from more than 35 journals covering
these disciplines, the text incorporates
the very latest information on food—
its science and its application. Understanding Food, 4th edition, provides
students with a broad foundation to
launch a career in any of these foodrelated fields.
ORGANIZATION
OF CONTENT
Understanding Food is organized
according to the various food disciplines.
Part I represents information related
to food science and nutrition, such as
food selection, sensory and physical
evaluation, and food chemistry. Part II
covers aspects of food service from
food safety, food preparation basics,
and meal management. Part III covers
all of the standard food items arranged
into protein (meat, poultry, fish, dairy,
and eggs); phytochemicals (vegetables,
fruits, soups, salads, and gelatins);
complex carbohydrates (cereals, flour,
breads); refined carbohydrates and fat
(sweeteners, fats and oils, cakes and
cookies, pies and pastries, candy, and
frozen desserts); and water (beverages)
groupings. Part IV relates to the food
industry in terms of food preservation,
government food regulations, and food
careers. The chapter on food careers
introduces students to the many careers
associated with a basic foods course. In
addition, the Professional Profile feature,
found in many chapters, spotlights
individuals working in various aspects
in the food industry, so students really
get a hands-on understanding of
various career opportunities. Extensive
appendixes provide additional key
information, including approximate
food measurements, weights and measures, storage temperatures, ingredient
substitutions, flavorings and seasonings,
and more.
• Updated Art and Photos providing
new and intriguing ways to better
illustrate concepts in the book.
• Updated Chemistry Corners and
How & Why Features expanding
on two popular features already in
the book.
NEW TO THIS
EDITION
• Calorie Control is a new feature
teaching students where the calories are in foods, how many daily
calories are recommended, and
quick pointers on how to control
calories within each food group.
Obesity is at epidemic proportions
in the United States and yet the
public and many health professionals remain calorie challenged. An
introductory food textbook is the
perfect place to provide this information for future food and nutrition professionals.
• New Food Evaluation Chapter responds to reviewers’ requests to create a separate chapter on this topic.
Now this topic can be included as
part of the basic food course or for a
more advanced food course.
• Revised Food Safety Chapter responds to readers wanting a more
“applied” hands-on approach to
food safety. The content was totally
revised to teach students practical
tips on preventing foodborne illness
that follow food flow—purchasing,
storage, preparation, cooking,
holding, cooling, reheating, and
sanitation.
• Temperature Danger Zone updated
to include both FDA and USDA
recommendations.
• Updated Information Added on
“gluten free” definitions and labeling
regulations, stevia sweeteners, irradiation research, and new functional
foods. Website links to the latest information have been incorporated,
and more opportunities in food service careers have been listed.
OTHER FEATURES
The unique features of this text allow
flexibility in teaching and create a
dynamic learning environment for
students.
• Professional Profile features provide interviews with people in the
food arena and give advice to students to help them on their career
path.
• How and Why inserts answer the
questions most frequently asked
by students. They are used to spark
natural curiosity, trigger inquisitive
thought patterns, and exercise the
mind’s ability to answer.
• Chemist’s Corner features provide
information on food chemistry in
boxes within the chapters for those
students and instructors who wish
to further explore the chemistry of
food. These Chemist’s Corners create a book with two chemistry levels, allowing for flexibility based on
the chemistry requirements of the
individual course.
• Nutrient Content boxes in each of
the foods chapters provide an overview of the nutritional composition
of the foods, reflecting the increased
emphasis in the food industry on
food as a means for health promotion and disease prevention.
• Food Additive information has
been incorporated throughout
the book responding to students’
requests to learn more about
this topic.
• Pictorial Summaries at the end of
every chapter are a proven favorite

with readers. Instead of a standard
narrative summary, these pictorial
chapter summaries use a combination of art and narrative text to
encapsulate the key concepts in each
chapter for student review.
Key terms, boldfaced in the text, are
defined in boxes on the same page
to allow for quick review of the
essential vocabulary in each chapter.
A glossary at the end of the book
assembles all of the key terms in the
chapters in one place.
Functions of ingredients are
highlighted in the introduction
to each chapter to aid students in
successful food product development and food preparation. They
introduce a focus of the food
industry that is often missing in
other books.
Problems and causes tables in
various food chapters summarize
the problems that may occur when
preparing specific food products
and describe the possible causes,
providing students with a handy
reference tool for deciphering “what
went wrong.”
Numerous illustrations placed
throughout the text enhance
students’ understanding of the
principles and techniques
discussed.
A 16-page full-color insert displays
exotic varieties of fruits and vegetables, salad greens, flowers used
in salads, traditional cuts of meats
(including the lowest-fat meat cuts),
and much more, all with detailed
captions describing use and preparation tips.
Chapter review questions were
changed from 5 to 7 questions at
the end of each chapter responding
to requests to help prepare students
for their class exams and also to
help prepare them for the American
Dietetic Association Registration
Examination.
The dynamic world of food changes
rapidly as new research constantly adds
to its ever-expanding knowledge base.
Understanding Food: Principles and
Preparation, 4th edition, is designed
to meet the needs of this evolving and
expanding discipline, and to provide
students with a strong foundation in
any food-related discipline that they
select.
ANCILLARY
MATERIALS

Appendix A
Appendix A: Food Preparation Equipment
Primarily used for baking and roasting, it is also used for
braising, poaching, and simmering.
Ovens rely on hot air for heating food, primarily by
convection, but conduction and radiation can also occur.
Baked foods rely on freely moving currents for the
transfer of heat, so it is important to ensure that baking pans
are placed on the racks in such a way as to allow the efficient
flow of air currents. Figure A-2 shows some of the types of
Appendix A provides a brief overview of food preparation
equipment—primary equipment, auxiliary equipment, and
utensils.
PRIMARY EQUIPMENT
Primary equipment consists of ranges, ovens (conventional,
convection, and microwave), refrigerators, and usually
dishwashers.
FIGURE A-2
Four types of ovens.
Ranges
Ranges can have open or flat top surfaces with electrical or gas
burners (Figure A-1).
Ovens
The conventional oven is located below the range, but it can
also be a separate unit (Figure A-2).

ovens that are available to food service establishments. They
include:
FIGURE A-4

Food service refrigerators and
freezers.
• Stack or deck oven. Each component of the stack has a
separate thermostat.
• Convection oven. Hot air is circulated by a fan, baking
contents more quickly.
• Revolving or carousel oven. Trays rotate like a Ferris
wheel, ensuring an even temperature.
• Impingement oven. Hot-air jets heat food more quickly (5).
• Infrared oven. Heat is generated by a very hot infrared
bulb.
• Brick-lined or hearth oven.
• Pizza oven. Reaches very hot temperatures.
• Microwave oven.
Refrigerators/Freezers

The proper refrigeration and freezing of foods is one of the most
important factors in preventing foodborne illness. Refrigerator
temperatures should be maintained at or below 40°F (4°C), and
freezers or freezer compartments at 0°F (218°C). Household
refrigerators are classified by the location of the freezer—above,
below, or beside the refrigerator section (Figure A-3). Food
service establishments usually have a walk-in refrigerator and
freezer, which may range in size from a small closet to a large
room. Other types of freezers/refrigerators include reach-ins,
roll-ins, and pass-throughs (Figure A-4).

The two categories of dishwashers are household dishwashers
and commercial dishwashers.
The three basic types of household dishwashers are:
Built-in dishwasher.—Integrated under the counter to match
the cabinets.
Portable dishwasher.—Used as soon as the hoses are attached
to the kitchen faucet; one hose drains into the sink.
Convertible dishwasher.—Used as a portable or installed permanently as a built-in.
Commercial or food service dishwashers are so large that they
often require a separate room.

production. This nonprofit organization is interested in the
promotion of public health and has established minimum
standards of construction for food service equipment (3).
Information about equipment or approved manufacturers can
be obtained by writing to NSF Testing Laboratory, Inc., PO Box
130140, Ann Arbor, MI 48113 (or e-mailing info@nsf.org).
Another private organization overseeing the safety of electrical
equipment is the Under-writers Laboratory (UL), which ensures
that an electrical appliance, cord, or plug has passed certain tests
for electrical shock, fire, and other related injuries (6).
AUXILIARY EQUIPMENT
In addition to the primary equipment in a kitchen, auxiliary
equipment includes fryers, broilers, steamers, grills, cutting
equipment, mixers, and coffee/tea makers.
Griddles
Griddles supplement range units. Their larger, flat, smooth
surfaces are ideal for preparing eggs, hamburgers, pancakes,
French toast, and hash browns (Figure A-5). Food service
griddles contain a drip cup to collect draining fat. Preparation
is easier when grill surfaces are primed by smearing them with
oil followed by a brief heating. To maintain the primed surface,
griddles are never washed with soap and water, but scraped clean,
wiped with a grease mop, and then polished with a soft cloth.
Tilting Skillets
Found only in large food service operations, the tilting skillet,
brazier, or fry pan can be used to make anything from chili to
poached eggs. The wide range of temperature settings stretches
from low braising to high frying heats. As a result, it can be
used as a fry pan, brazier, griddle, stockpot, steamer, or steam
table. The entire skillet can be tilted to pour out liquid-based
contents (Figure A-6).
FIGURE A-5
Griddle.

Broilers and Grills
The difference between broiling and grilling is the heat
source: the broiler’s heat is above the food whereas the
grill’s is below the food. Temperature control is achieved by
moving the grid up or down. Heat for these may be provided
by wood, charcoal, electricity, or gas.
Steamers
Two basic types of steamers are used in food service organizations: cabinet or compartment steamers and steam-jacketed
kettles (Figure A-7).
Cabinet steamers.—Stacked one above the other with the door
of each sealed tight with clamps.
Steam-jacketed kettles.—Used more for fluid-type foods such
as soups and stews. Range in size from 1 quart to 200
gallons. The steam is not generated inside the kettle, but
is circulated between the double-layered metal plates of
the kettle’s outer shell. A handle is used to tilt the entire
steam-jacketed kettle to pour out the food.
Steam heats foods by moist heat. Most steamers in a food
service establishment steam under pressure, which is measured
by a gauge in pounds per square inch (psi). Pressure steamers
allow food to heat to temperatures higher than boiling, which
decreases cooking time. Vegetables can be cooked at pressures of 10 to 15 psi, reaching a temperature of 250°F (120°C).
Lower pressures and temperatures (5 to 10 psi, 225°F/105°C)
are used to cook meats, which would fall apart at the higher
pressures required for vegetables. Cooked vegetables and even

some fish maintain their texture, color, taste, and nutrients
best when they are properly steamed or microwaved. Rice,
pasta, poultry, eggs, fish, and shellfish may also be steamed,
but the flavor of meats and poultry will usually be diminished
by the process.
Safety is particularly important with steamers. They should
never be run without water, and they should be periodically
checked to ensure that safety valves are working. They should
never be opened until the pressure has gone down, and then
should always be opened away from the face.
Deep Fryers
Breaded fish and vegetables, fried chicken, and french fries are
some of the foods commonly prepared in deep fryers. Frying is
similar to boiling, except that in frying the liquid is fat, which
can reach higher temperatures than water. Food is loosely
placed in a wire basket, which is then submerged in heated oil.
When the food floats to the top of the oil, it can be considered
cooked. The basket is then removed and set aside so that the oil
can drain from the food. The fryers themselves may be small
enough to be portable or so large that they are floor mounted
(Figure A-8). Most deep fryers have automatic heat controls.
Woks
This large bowl-shaped pan is central to Chinese cooking. It
comes equipped with (1) a metal ring to fit over a range burner
(Figure A-9), or (2) self-contained with an electrical cord.
The most time-consuming step in using a wok is cutting the
FIGURE A-8

foods into many small, uniform pieces. The actual cooking
of the foods is a quick process, lasting approximately 5 to 10
minutes. It starts with high heat under the wok, which has
been lightly coated with oil (usually sesame or peanut oil).
The foods that take the longest to cook are added first. The
food is stirred rapidly for a few minutes, for even cooking, and
then the heat is lowered and the pan covered so the steam thus
generated can complete the process.
Crockery
Crockery, or electric slow cookers, have been popular for
some 40 years and are particularly good for moist-heat
cooking of meat and legumes. Crockery cooking is long and
slow, with controlled heat that needs little or no supervision.
A meal can be started in the morning that will be ready to eat
by dinnertime. Because there is some evidence that crockery
may not keep food sufficiently hot for the entire duration of
cooking, its use has lately been discouraged by some food
experts because of the risk of foodborne illness.
Cutting Equipment

Meat slicers, food choppers, and grinders are common pieces
of equipment in food service establishments (Figure A-10).
Meat Slicer
Carelessness in the use of a meat slicer causes more food service accidents than any other kind of equipment. The following safety tips apply: The machine should always be unplugged
when not in use. After the slicer is plugged in, the blade control is adjusted for the desired slicing thickness, and the blade
guard positioned. The food, usually boneless meats, but possibly cheese, vegetables, fruits, and even bread, is then placed
on the carriage and held there firmly with the guard before the
switch is turned on. The carriage is moved back and forth by
its handle in a smooth motion.
The equipment should be thoroughly sanitized after use
and between different types of foods, especially with raw
meats. The cord must be removed from the socket and the
blade control set at zero before cleaning. Metal utensils should
never be used to scrape food from the blade because they
may nick the slicer. Manufacturer’s instructions should be
followed in removing the various parts and subjecting them
to the sanitizing solution and to rinsing and drying. The blade
guard should be replaced immediately to prevent any risk of
cuts. The use of protective gloves through the whole cleaning
process is highly recommended.

Food Chopper or Cutter
Another potentially dangerous piece of food service equipment is the food chopper or cutter. The key to preventing injuries here is to turn the machine off, allow the knife blades to
come to a rest, and flip the safety catch on before removing the
food with a bowl scraper. The hands should never go into the
bowl. The guard can be raised to remove any remaining food.
Meats with bones or gristle should not be processed with food
choppers because they will damage the gears and knives.
For safety’s sake, attachments must be securely in place before
the machine is turned on, and it is best to disconnect the power
entirely before removing them. Spoons or hands in the bowl
during mixing are not recommended, but rubber scrapers can be
used occasionally to scrape down the sides of the mixing bowl.
Blenders and Food Processors
Blenders and food processors allow further refinements to
mixing food (Figure A-12). In blenders, the blades or mixing
component is on the bottom. They are used for everything
from making milk shakes to blending the vegetables used in
making gazpacho, a Spanish cold soup. Food processors are
more versatile and allow cutting, chopping, grinding, slicing,
and shredding foods, and even kneading dough. They come
with specialized blades for accomplishing all these tasks, and
many even come with a juicing attachment.
FIGURE A-12
Blenders and food processors.
Mixers are convenient for controlling the rate at which
ingredients are combined. They are used to prepare whipped
cream, beaten egg whites, and mashed potatoes. In the food
service industry, models range in size from tabletop to floor size.
Attachments vary from a paddle for general mixing, to
whips for cream or eggs, to dough arms for kneading yeast
dough (Figure A-11). Additional attachments may be added,
including a shredding, grating, or slicing attachment and a
grinder for meats and other foods. Some home mixers have
similar attachments.

Coffee Makers
Many homes and food service venues use automatic coffee
makers daily (Figure A-13). Food service operations serve
coffee from an electric urn or automatic coffee brewer. Electric
urns are connected to a hot water source and automatically
shut off after the coffee is finished brewing. The hot water
running through a coffee brewer stops after the decanter or
pot is full.
Pots and Pans
Pots and pans are distinguished from one another by their size,
shape, and handle (Figure A-14). Another defining feature of a
pot, pan, or kettle is their capacity defined by (1) the number
of quarts, or (2) inches (baking pans and skillets are described
in inches; e.g., 8- or 9-inch cake pan) (6).
Pots have two handles and are used when preparing large
quantities. Saucepans and frying pans have a single long
handle and less capacity. Saucepans are usually straight-sided,
whereas frying pans can be either straight- or slope-sided.
The flattest pans are those used for baking and roasting. The
sturdiest, and thickest, pans are used for roasting. A double
boiler consists of a bottom pan in which water is heated, and
a top pan containing a food item that must be kept below the
boiling point. These are used for preparing certain sauces and
to keep food hot without burning.

Pan Shapes
Cakes come in a variety shapes because the pans can be round,
square, or oblong. There are special pans for making sponge and
angel food cakes; the angel food cake pan usually has a tubular
segment in the middle that separates from the sides for easy removal of the cake. Spring-form pans allow one to “spring” open
the sides for easy removal of the cake. Cookie sheets, sometimes
referred to as baking sheets, have no sides (except one or two
that are raised for handling), allowing the hot air to flow evenly
over the cookies. Heavy-duty sheet pans with four sides can also
be used for preparing cookies and myriad other foods such as

FIGURE A-15
Best Heat Conductors
Aluminum, copper, and combinations of copper and stainless
steel are the best conductors of heat (6). Aluminum accounts
for more than half the cookware sold in the United States, but
it is very lightweight and prone to denting. Aluminum may
also react chemically with many foods, particularly those high
in acid, and it is not recommended for storing foods. Copper is an excellent heat conductor, but it is costly and requires
special care. A further disadvantage is that excessive copper
may dissolve into the food being prepared, causing nausea
and vomiting. Therefore, copper pans are usually lined with
stainless steel or tin. Stainless steel is known for its durability
and easy cleaning; however, it is a poor conductor of heat and
tends to generate hot spots, which may scorch the food. To
keep this from happening, the bottoms of many stainless steel
pans are coated with copper or aluminum.
Materials that make the pot.
Stainless steel: Poor heat
conductor, which is why
they are often bottomcoated with copper.
Nonstick coatings:
Tolerate high heats and
eliminate sticking that can
occur with stainless steel.
Aluminum: Excellent heat
conductor and lightweight,
but it reacts with foods
that are acidic, alkaline, or
sulfurous.
Nonstick Pans
Nonstick pans reduce the amount of fat needed to prevent
sticking, but their surfaces are easily scratched, so plastic, rubber, or wooden utensils are recommended.
Anodized aluminum:
Surface is electrochemically
sealed to make it
nonreactive.

biscuits, bread, pizza, breadcrumbs, roasted nuts, and even some
meats. Full-sheet pans are used in restaurants for bulk baking,
whereas half-sheets (half the size of full sheets) are reserved for
home use (4). Some of the half-sheets purchased at supermarkets may warp at temperatures over 300°F (149°C) but not pans
made of heavy-duty aluminum or steel. The aluminum pans
tend to be more popular because their lighter color reflects heat,
which helps to prevent overbrowning and baking (4). Also, they
do not rust. The darker the pan, as seen in steel pans or those
coated with a nonstick surface, the darker the cookies.
Pan Colors
One advantage of the darker sheet pans is that they absorb
heat, resulting in a crisper crust for pizza and fruit pies. Regardless of the color, professional bakers use kitchen parchment on baking sheets to prevent sticking, to move items
around with ease, and to protect against burning (4).
Digital Works
Cast iron: Superb at
retaining heat, but slow
to heat or cool; needs to
be completely dried and
primed.
Cast Iron Pans
Cast iron pots and pans are heavy, heat slowly, rust easily, and
are difficult to clean. They do, however, retain high temperatures for longer periods of time, heat evenly, and add extra
iron to the diet. Acidic foods such as tomato sauces tend to absorb more iron: 5 mg of iron are absorbed for every 3 ounces
of spaghetti sauce cooked in a cast iron pan.
Cast iron pots and pans may be cleaned in one of two ways.
The first involves a preliminary priming or conditioning of
the pan with a very thin coat of vegetable oil, after which it is
heated and cooled. A primed pan is cleaned by scraping and
wiping away food particles after each use. Reconditioning may
be done whenever necessary. The second method is to wash
the pan with soap and water, heat it to dry, and then coat it
with a minute amount of oil. This second method is more
likely to remove any traces of rancid fat, which can impart an
off-flavor to any food subsequently prepared in the pan.
Glass Pans
Heat-proof glass, such as Pyrex, and glass/ceramic combinations, such as Corningware, break more easily than metalbased pots and pans, but have the advantage of not reacting
with foods. Most casserole pans, which are usually oval or
oblong with low sides, are made of such materials. Baking
temperatures should be reduced by 25°F (4°C) when using
tempered glass. The newer versions of glass/ceramic materials can be moved from the range or oven to the refrigerator or
freezer, and later be taken from the cold and placed directly
into the oven or microwave. Glass pots and pans are not allowed in food service operations, however, because of possible
breakage and liability problems.
Utensils
Utensils are vital items needed for cutting, stirring, turning,
measuring, and serving food. The utensils covered in this
section include knives and utensils used in preparation,
measuring, and serving.

Food Preparation Equipment
Knife Utensils
Knives are to the chef as brushes are to the artist. Some
people consider them to be the most important tools in
food preparation. Knowing the different kinds of knives,
their particular tasks, and how to care for them is crucial
to the preparation of foods. The food to be cut determines
what type of knife should be used. The basic knife starter set
consists of chef ’s, paring, slicing, boning, and utility knives.
The first three types of knives often complete the set of many
home kitchens. Common knives used in food preparation are
shown in Figure A-16.
Chef’s Knife The chef’s, or French, knife is one of the largest and serves as an all-purpose knife for cutting meats and
for mincing, dicing, and chopping a variety of foods. Chef ’s
knives are commonly available in blade lengths of 6, 8, and
12 inches, and the side of their blades can be used to crush
garlic cloves, ginger slices, and peppercorns (2).
FIGURE A-16
preparation.
Common knives used in food

Utility Knife The utility knife is geared toward lighter
duties such as cutting tomatoes or carving meat.
Paring Knife The smaller, shorter, 2- to 4-inch paring
knife is used for more delicate jobs that require close control,
such as the trimming of vegetables, fruits, and small pieces of
meat like chicken breasts.
Boning Knife The slightly curved boning knife is handy
for separating meat from bone (e.g., deboning the breast of
a chicken), disjointing poultry, cutting between the joints of
larger pieces of meat, and dicing raw meats.
Slicing Knife Slicing knives are long and flexible enough
to portion off thin slices of meat or poultry. Serrated slicers
are useful for cutting bread or angel food cake.
Steak or Scimitar Knife These knives are used for cutting steaks from the appropriate parts of a carcass.
Butcher Knife A variety of butcher knives are available
for cutting raw meats.
Heavy Cleavers Additional knives that are found in food
service arenas include heavy cleavers for cutting through bone.

Purchasing Knives
Knives can range in price from a few to several hundred
dollars. When selecting a knife, qualities to consider include
size, weight, balance, the length of the tang, and the materials
from which the blade and handle are made. Although the size
selected will be determined by the use for which the knife
is intended, the other factors depend on more qualitative
assessments.
Weight and Balance Sometimes the “balance” or the feel
of the knife in the hand is a factor in selection. Some knives
are blade-heavy, others handle-heavy, and some feel evenly
divided between the two. A person should select the knife
that feels “right” in his or her hand (2).
Tang Another quality that varies among knives is the
length of the tang, the part of the metal blade that extends
into the handle. Better-quality knives have a tang that extends the full length of the handle.
Blade Probably the most important factor in selecting a
knife is the type of steel used for the blade: carbon, stainless steel, or high-carbon stainless steel. Carbon blades are
almost obsolete because they are highly susceptible to rust
and lose their edge quickly. Stainless steel, on the other
hand, is rust-resistant but is difficult to sharpen and to keep
sharp. Th is steel is actually a combination of metals, including chromium, which is added for its resistance to stains,
corrosion, and heat. Despite its name, stainless steel is not
stain-proof, but it does stain less than knives not made from
stainless steel when it comes into contact with food and beverages, especially salad dressing, vinegar, salt, mustard, tea,
and coffee.

A-9
Appendix A
High-carbon stainless-steel knives are usually preferred
because, in addition to not staining, they keep a sharp
edge and do not rust (2). High-carbon knives are further
distinguished by whether they have a stamped or a forged
blade. Stamped blades are cut from a sheet of steel, ground,
and polished. Because they are mass produced, they are less
expensive than forged knives. Forged blades are made from
a single piece of steel that has been exposed to extremely
high heat, submerged in a chemical bath, and set in a die
before being hand-hammered into shape. The resultant
blades are more costly, but they are also heavier, tougher,
hold their edge longer, and require less pressure when
cutting.
Handle The knife’s handle may be made of wood, carved
bone, plastic, or metal. Wood is easier to hold, but water damage from frequent washing reduces the length of its life. Plastic or metal handles are more durable, but they are slippery.
Bone-handled knives are both water- and wear-resistant and,
when combined with a high-carbon stainless-steel knife, can
last a lifetime or more.
FIGURE A-17
Care of Knives
Cutting knives should never go in a dishwasher. Strong
detergents not only dull the blade but, when combined with
hot water and air, can ruin wooden handles. Nicks can occur if
the blade bumps against other metal utensils. Instead, knives
should be washed immediately after use with soap or detergent,
dried thoroughly, and then stored in such a way that their
blades do not contact each other to prevent nicks. The blades
may be kept separated by slipping them into a wooden knife
block (blade turned upward) or a shallow knife block that fits
inside a drawer, or by placing them along a magnetic strip.
Knives can be sharpened using one of the many electric
and mechanical knife sharpeners on the market, but a better
result can be achieved by hand. The two basic ways to handsharpen a knife are with a stone or a steel implement. The
sharpening stone, also known as a whetstone, is used by
rubbing a bit of moisture on the stone and sliding each side of
the blade until the proper sharpness is acquired. A sharpening
steel looks like a round sword and is held firmly in one hand
while the knife, held in the other hand, is brandished against
the steel (Figure A-17). Most chefs employ both implements,
Sharpening knives using either a stone or steel.
STONE
Produces a sharp cutting edge*
The blade is held at an angle to the stone (rough side up).
Pull it gently toward you across the entire surface of the
stone, making sure the entire blade is sharpened from the
tip to its heel in one stroke.
STEEL
Maintains a sharp cutting edge
The heel of the knife is placed at an angle under the steel’s tip.
Firmly holding the steel in the left hand, use one smooth stroke
with the right hand to draw the knife (from the blade’s heel to
the tip) down to the steel’s base.
The knife is turned over and the procedure is reversed in
the opposite direction. Four times across the stone on
each side (rough and smooth) is usually sufficient to
sharpen a knife.
* Stones are pretreated prior to sharpening knives—
either by first saturating them lightly with vegetable oil
(which has to be cleaned off), or soaking them in water
(which does not require cleaning). Never sharpen knives
on an electric knife sharpener that may tear the steel and
shorten the blade’s lifespan.
The heel of the knife is placed at an angle on top of the steel’s
tip. Retain this angle while moving the knife down the steel
(from the blade’s heel to the tip) in one smooth stroke.

for different purposes: one for getting an edge and the other
for refining it.
Cutting Boards
Cutting boards are used primarily for cutting meat, poultry,
vegetables, and fruits, but they may also be used for kneading
and rolling out dough. They may be made of wood, hard
plastic, glass, or ceramic tiles; the latter three, however, are
hard on knife blades (1). Cutting boards should be carefully
scraped and thoroughly washed and dried every time they
are used.
Preparation Utensils
Figure A-18 shows some of the supporting utensils most
commonly used in food preparation. Spoons, available in
solid, slotted, or perforated versions, are used for mixing
and serving. The holes in the slotted and perforated spoons
allow liquids to drain. Wire whisks are used for mixing and
are categorized by their shapes. Straight (French) whisks
are ideal for general purposes or smooth sauces. The very
thin wires of balloon whisks are designed for beating the
maximum amount of air into thin liquids such as egg whites
and cream. Flat whisks are fashioned for creating sauces and
gravies when it is important to lift up materials from the
corners of a pan (7).
Spatulas come in a variety of shapes for their many
purposes. Rubber spatulas or scrapers are used to scrape
bowls or to fold beaten egg whites or other ingredients into
each other. The straight spatula or palette knife is used for
measuring ingredients, and it is ideal for spreading icings
onto cakes. The sandwich spreader, with a broader blade, is
used, as the name implies, on sandwich fillings, butter, and
jams. A pie server is an angled spatula used to lift pie, cake,
or pizza wedges. Similar in design, but wider and with a larger
bend, is the offset spatula, which is used to turn items such as
hamburgers, eggs, and pancakes.
Other preparation utensils include the bench scraper, for
scraping and for cutting dough; the pastry wheel, which is
designed to cut pastry dough, but which can also be used to
cut pizza; and the pastry brush, which is used to coat pastry
with egg white or sugar glaze.
Types of Measuring Utensils
About five different types of measuring utensils are frequently
used in food preparation: liquid and dry measuring cups,
measuring spoons, ladles, and scoops (Figure A-19).
Liquid Measuring Cups Available in 1-cup, 2-cup (1
pint), and 4-cup (1 quart) capacities. Their volumes are divided into increments of ¼, 1/3, ½, 2/3, and ¾ cup. They are
usually glass, have a pouring lip, and are all-purpose.
Dry Measuring Cups Fractional, flat-topped (no pouring
lip), single-volume cups (¼, 1/3, ½, and 1) are best because
they can be leveled with a spatula for a more accurate result.
Accuracy is also improved by using the 1-cup measure rather
than four ¼ cups.
Measuring Spoons Used to measure both liquid and
dry ingredients requiring less than ¼ cup, they consist of
1 tablespoon, and 1,½, ¼, and occasionally 1⁄8 teaspoon.
A tablespoon equals 3 teaspoons, and 2 tablespoons equal
1 fluid ounce.
Ladles Liquids can be measured by ladles that are individually stamped with their capacity in ounces (Table A-1).
Scoops or Dippers The various sizes are identified by
a scoop number (Table A-2), which indicates the number
of portions from a quart (e.g., a number 8 scoop yields
eight ½-cup portions from 1 quart). The larger the scoop or
dipper number, the smaller the serving. Measured scoops
and dippers are used primarily by food service establishments for serving ice cream, mashed potatoes, and other
soft foods.

depending on the density, or weight per volume, of the object
being measured. For example, half a cup of marshmallows
weighs less than half a cup of vegetable oil.
Many countries measure ingredients by weight. In the
United States, Americans tend to measure using volume
measurements such as teaspoons, tablespoons, cups, pints,
quarts, and gallons. Weight can be measured by a number of
different types of scales: spring-type scales, used principally
for weighing dry ingredients like grains, beans, dried pasta,
vegetables, fruits, and cheese; portion scales and balance scales
for weighing ingredients; and the baker’s scale, used primarily
for measuring dough ingredients (Figure A-20).

Measuring Terms
Mass vs. Volume Weight, commonly used to mean mass,
is a much more accurate measurement than volume. As a
result, many food service operations use weight rather than
volume to measure recipe ingredients. Confusion between
the two methods of measuring ingredients occurs because
ounces can be measured either by volume, known as fluid
ounces (fl), or by mass (weight), known as avoirdupois ounces
(av). Water is the only substance whose fluid ounce is equal to
its avoirdupois ounce. The mass of other substances will vary

A-13 Appendix A
Metric vs. Nonmetric Metric measurements of volume
are expressed in milliliters (mL). Metric cups come in sizes of
25, 50, 125, and 250 mL, and measuring spoons are divided
into 1, 2, 5, 15, and 25 mL. A 250-mL metric cup is close to
a nonmetric cup, which holds 236.59 mL. The 15 and 5 mL
metric measures are almost equal to the nonmetric tablespoon and teaspoon, respectively. The inside back cover of
this book lists the conversions between nonmetric and metric measuring units for volume and mass.
Accuracy of Measuring Utensils
The American Association of Family and Consumer Sciences
(AAFCS) has set certain tolerances for measuring the
precise volume of household measuring utensils. One way to
determine a cup’s precise volume is to fill it with tap water and
then pour it into a graduated cylinder. Both the utensil and
the graduated cylinder should be on a level surface and the
milliliters of water should be read at eye level at the bottom
of the meniscus (Figure A-21). Any measurement evaluating
accuracy should be done three times and then averaged to
eliminate error. The resulting number should not deviate more
than 5% from the standard set by the AAFCS. According to
these standards, a metric cup of 250 mL can deviate 5 percent,
FIGURE A-21

Meniscus
to 237.5 or 262.5 mL, and still be acceptable (3). Variations
within the 5% range do not make any appreciable differences in
ingredient proportions or in the quality of the final product.
Serving Utensils
At last the meal is ready to be eaten, and serving utensils enter
the picture. Basic tableware includes salad forks, dinner forks,
regular knives, steak knives (optional), soup spoons, and
teaspoons. A more extensive “wardrobe” of tableware might
include butter knives, small two-tined forks known as seafood
forks, dessert spoons, luncheon knives and forks (which are
slightly smaller than standard knives and forks), iced-tea
spoons, and grapefruit spoons. Eating utensils, for sanitary
reasons, should always be touched by the handles.

Appendix D: Flavorings and Seasonings
Name
Uses
Allspice
Allspice combines the flavors of cloves, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Whole allspice is used for pickling, gravies, broiled fish, and meats.
Ground allspice is used for baked goods, fruit preserves, puddings, and relishes.
Almond
Almonds can be used in every dish from soup to dessert. Almond extract is used in cookies, confections, and Chinese cuisine.
Anise
Anise is a popular favorite for a few gourmet dishes such as Oysters Rockefeller. Also, it is used in bakery products, candies (especially
licorice candy), certain kinds of cheese, pickles, and many liqueurs and cordials, including anisette and absinthe.
Anise-pepper
It is one of the ingredients in Chinese Five Spices and is commonly used for fish and strongly flavored foods.
Balm
Balm has a pleasant lemon scent and can be chopped and combined with other herbs for use in omelets and salads, and in the
production of several liqueurs. Also, balm leaves are used to flavor soups and dressings.
Bay leaves
Bay leaves can be used either fresh or dried. They are one of the ingredients in bouquet garni, and are used in bouillon, marinades,
olives, and pickles. They combine well with fish, potatoes, or tomatoes.
Bouquet garni
This is a French term meaning “bundle of sweet herbs.” The bouquet garni is used in soups and stews, or any dish in which there is
sufficient liquid to absorb the flavors.
Caper
Capers are much used in European cuisine. They are commonly used in making caper sauce, which is usually eaten with boiled lamb.
They also go well with fish dishes and with casseroles of chicken and rabbit.
Caraway
The seeds (actually the dried whole fruits) are used in cakes, cheeses, confections, fresh cabbage, meat dishes, rye bread, salads, and
sauerkraut. The chopped green leaves can be used in soups and salads. The roots can be cooked and eaten as a vegetable.
Cardamom seed
Freshly ground cardamom has many uses including: breads, cakes, cookies, cheese, curries, custard, liver sausage, meat dishes, pilaus,
pork sausage, and punches.
Cassia
The stick cinnamon can be used in dishes to impart flavor, and then removed before serving; for example, some punches are flavored
in this manner. Powdered cassia is used in combination with allspice, nutmeg, and cloves for spicing mincemeat, curries, pilaus, meat
dishes, desserts and cakes. It is one of the ingredients of the famous Chinese Five Spices.
Cayenne pepper
A little goes a long way, but it is a spice that adds considerable interest to egg dishes, fish, and meat recipes.
Celery salt
This spice is slightly bitter, but it combines well with bouillon, eggs, fish, potato salad, and salad dressing.
Celery seed
Celery seeds have a slightly bitter taste, but they contribute a useful flavoring. They add special interest to many salads and salad
dressings.
Chervil, garden
Chervil, which has a mild anise-caraway flavor, is one of the ingredients of Fines herbes, a mixture of chopped fresh herbs extensively
used in French recipes. Chervil is used in omelets, soups, salads, sauces, and white wine vinegar. It should not be cooked, but must be
added at the last minute; otherwise, it loses its flavor.
Chinese Five
Spices
Chinese Five Spices (a blend of anise-pepper, star anise, cassia, cloves, and fennel seed) is an integral part of some of the recipes from
the Far East. Also, it can be used to good advantage in flavoring pork dishes.
Chives
Chives are ideal as a garnish because of their delicate onion flavor and bright green color. Chives add interest and flavor to buttered
beets, eggs, cottage or cream cheese, potato and other salads, sliced tomatoes, and soups.
Cinnamon
Cinnamon has a more delicate flavor than cassia and is more suitable for sweet dishes, cakes, and cookies.
Citron
Citron peel has a peculiar taste, quite different from other citrus. Is used in the U.S. as candied peel to be added to cakes, cookies,
candies, and desserts.
Cloves
Whole cloves are used in many meat dishes, but a little goes a long way. Cloves are stuck into lemon slices for tea, into onions, and
into hams for baking; they are also popular for apple cookery and pickle making. In the East, they go into many of the curry dishes.
Whole cloves are also included in recipes for spiced wine and some liqueurs. Ground cloves are used in baked goods, borscht (beet
soup), chocolate puddings, potato soup, and stews.
Cola
Cola is used in many soft drinks, and for coloring and flavoring some wines.
Coriander
(Cilantro)
Coriander leaves are popular in Near, Middle, or Far East recipes, as well as Mexico and South America. The seeds are a principal
ingredient of curry. Whole coriander seeds can be used in cakes, cookies, biscuits, gingerbread, green salads, pickles, and poultry
stuffing. Ground seeds are added to many meat and sweet dishes.

Uses
Cress
Watercress
Garden Cress
The cresses are primarily used in salads and sandwiches, but they can be used to flavor soup, cooked greens, or sauces for fish dishes,
and to garnish meals.
Cumin
Cumin’s principal use is in curry powder. It is also used to flavor bread, stuffed eggs, meats, rice dishes, and soups. Commercially, it
may be found in cheese, chutney, pickles, meats, and sausage.
Curry (powder)
Curry powder may be added to eggs, chicken, fish, meats, rice, soups, or a salad made of sweet potatoes and pineapple.
Dill
Dill loses its flavor when cooked, so it should be added at the last minute. Fresh dill leaves can be used for dishes containing chicken,
mushrooms, or spinach. The seeds are used in dill pickles and dill vinegar, but they can be added to meat dishes, meat and fish sauces,
sauerkraut, salads, and borscht (beet soup).
Fennel
Fennel has an anise-like flavor and is good with many foods: apple pie, candies, fish, liqueurs, pastries, pork, soups, and sweet pickles.
Fenugreek seed
Fenugreek seeds are usually used in Indian curries and chutneys.
Fines herbes
A combination of several herbs such as basil, chervil, chives, marjoram, oregano, parsley, rosemary, sage, tarragon, and thyme. Fines
herbes can be used in many dishes such as fish sauces, meat stuffings, omelets, salads, salad dressing, and soups.
Garlic
Garlic blends with a wide range of dishes such as fish, game, meats, and vegetables.
Ginger
Ginger is used in numerous foods including beverages, biscuits, cakes, cookies, fish, gingerbread, ginger beer, ginger wine and
cordials, puddings, sauces, and spice mixtures. It is used mostly in sweet preparation in European and North American cooking, but
the Orient uses it extensively for chutney, fish, meat, and pickles.
Horseradish
Many cooks limit the use of horseradish to a sauce used on meats, but it can be added to chicken salads, egg dishes, and mayonnaise
for use on fish dishes, or tomato combinations.
Leek
The leek is rather like a very mild onion. It is used mostly in soups and chowders. However, the leek may also be used as a bouquet for
pork or lamb.
Lemon
Lemon juice can be used on salads instead of vinegar, and it is the predominant favorite for serving with most fishes. Grated lemon
rind is added to cakes, cookies, desserts, and sauces, to give an added taste dimension.
Licorice
Licorice is used to flavor candy, chewing gum, and soft drinks. CAUTION: Licorice raises the blood pressure of some people
dangerously high, due to retention of sodium.
Lime
Limes impart a unique taste to dishes, which cannot be replaced by lemons. Fish is often marinated in lime juice before cooking.
Mace
Mace can be added to apple dishes, beets, cakes, hot chocolate, coffee cakes, cookies, custards, eggnog, gingerbread, and muffins.
Marjoram
Is related to thyme; hence, they are often used together or to replace each other. It can be added to almost every dish to advantage.
It should be added immediately before serving as the flavor is easily lost in cooking. Marjoram is used with egg dishes, lamb, poultry,
sausage, soups, stews, and vegetables.
Mint,
Peppermint,
or Spearmint
Peppermint flavoring is used mostly for candies, cordials, desserts, icings, and liqueurs. Spearmint is the preferred mint for lamb as
well as for iced tea and mint juleps. It can also be used in soups, stews, fish, and meat sauces.
Monosodium
Glutamate
(MSG)
MSG does not have any flavor of its own, but it intensifies and enhances the flavor in other foods, especially meat and fish.
Mustard
Black mustard
Brown
mustard
White or
Yellow
mustard
Whole mustard seeds add pungency to many foods, including pickles, meats, and salads. Powdered dry mustard is a common kitchen
spice. Its sharp, hot flavor develops when the powder is moistened. It is used for roast beef, mustard pickles, sauces, and gravies.
Prepared mustard is a mixture of powdered mustard with salt, spices, and lemon juice, with wine or vinegar to preserve the mustard’s
pungency. It may be used with ham, hamburgers, hot dogs, and sandwich spreads.
Nutmeg
Nutmeg is traditionally used in sweet foods such as cakes, custards, doughnuts, eggnog, pies, and puddings, but it goes very well with
meat, sausage, spinach, sweet potatoes, and vegetables.

Flavorings and Seasonings D-3
Appendix D (continued)
Name
Uses
Onion
Onions are used either as a separate vegetable or as a flavoring for other foods. The leaves of the onion, along with the bulb, are used
in salad.
Oregano
Oregano is used extensively in Italian cooking and can be added to cheese dishes, chili beans, fish, gravies, meats, sauces, sausage,
salads, and soups.
Paprika
Paprika is used in many dishes both for its flavor and as a garnish. It can be added to chicken, sweet corn, fish, meats, sausages,
tomato catsup, and tomato juice.
Parsley
Parsley can be added to fish and fish sauces, meats, sauces, soups, and vegetables. It is commonly used as a decoration for buffet
dishes.
Pepper
Pepper loses much in aroma when ground or cooked, so freshly ground pepper should be used whenever possible. Whole peppercorn
can be purchased as well as cracked, and coarsely or finely ground. Except for sweet dishes, pepper can be added to all other dishes.
Poppy seed
Poppy seeds have a pleasant nutlike flavor and aroma and are used primarily in baked goods, on the tops of rolls and bread, and in
cakes and pastries. However, they are also used in confections, fruit salad dressings, and curries.
Rosemary
Rosemary is good with soups, on broiled steaks, or with other meat dishes, sauces, and vegetables. The taste is aromatic, pungent,
and slightly bitter.
Saffron
Saffron is used as a flavoring and coloring (yellow) spice in biscuits, confections, boiled fish, fish soup, fancy rolls, and rice, and in
some European dishes.
Sage
Sage is available whole, rubbed, or ground. It is used for baked fish, meats, and meat stuffings, sausages, cheeses, and sauces.
Savory
Savory is available whole or ground, and is often combined with other herbs to flavor meats. Also, it can be used in beans, scrambled
eggs, peas, salads, sauces, and sausages.
Sesame seed
Sesame seeds develop a beautiful nutty taste when sprinkled on buns, rolls, or cakes, and then baked. They are also used in
confections.
Shallot
Shallots can be used in the same way as the onion, although the flavor is much more subtle. Shallots should never be browned, as they
turn bitter.
Soy sauce
Soy sauce can be used in a wide array of dishes, especially with beef, chicken, fish, soups, turkey, and vegetable dishes.
Star anise
Star anise has a strong flavor similar to anise, but slightly more bitter and pungent. In Chinese cooking, it is used for duck and pork
recipes.
Sweet basil
Basil can be used for green beans, fish, soups, squashes, stews, tomatoes, and vinegar.
Sweet cicely
The plant smells and tastes somewhere between anise and licorice. The taproot can be boiled and used for salads, and the green fruit
can be served with salad dressing. Europeans use the leaves in soups and salads. The plant is also used for flavoring desserts and
liqueurs.
Tarragon
Tarragon is best known for flavoring vinegar, but it is also used for beef, chicken, eggs, fish, pickles, cookies, salads, and tartar sauce.
It has a slightly anise flavor.
Thyme
Thyme is used with fish dishes, meats, poultry, sauces, tomato dishes, and vegetables.
Turmeric
Turmeric and mustard are inseparable partners (it is used to color mustard); and turmeric is superb for almost every meat and egg dish,
for pickles, and for curries. It adds yellow color.
Vanilla
Vanilla is almost always used in sweet dishes such as bakery products and desserts.
Wintergreen
Wintergreen is used mainly for candies and lozenges.
