Ð Promoting sustainable development requires evaluating the technical and policy options that will facilitate the adoption and use of energy ecient and less polluting cooking stoves and practices. The transition from traditional to modern fuels and devices has been explained by the ``energy ladder'' model that suggests that with increasing a‚uence, a progression is expected from traditional bi...

Gelled emulsions based on chia and hemp oils were used as partial (25% 50%) fat replacer in beef burgers. The effect of formulation, frozen storage during 60 days cooking process was assessed lipid profile, oxidation susceptibility technological attributes (cooking properties). Reformulated burgers showed better nutritional quality (in reference to dietary fats) than control, mainly due the inc...

OBJECTIVE This study observed the effects of cooking method and final core temperature on cooking loss, lipid oxidation, aroma volatiles, nucleotide-related compounds and aroma volatiles of Hanwoo brisket (deep pectoralis). METHODS Deep pectoralis muscles (8.65% of crude fat) were obtained from three Hanwoo steer carcasses with 1+ quality grade. Samples were either oven-roasted at 180°C (dry ...

“Video-based cooking communication” enables people to share the cooking experiences in their home kitchen. Multimedia technologies will facilitate such communication over the Internet. We propose a multimedia processing platform that supports multi-point video communication and provides several functions to easily access raw video and audio. In this system, we can build and test multimedia proc...

Cooking is the major method of consumption of the edible mangrove fruit of Sonneratia apetala (Buch.-Ham.). Effects of cooking methods-autoclaving, boiling, microwaving, pressure cooking and steaming on total polyphenol contents and antioxidant activities of both fresh and dried-stored seeds and pericarps of the fruits were studied. All the methods significantly (p < 0.01) enhanced total polyph...

To clarify the cooking losses of minerals (sodium, potassium, phosphorus, calcium, magnesium, iron, zinc, manganese, copper), various food materials were analyzed before and after cooking, and the following results were obtained. (1) The mineral contents of cooked foods in mass cooking were on an average about 60-70 percent of those in raw or uncooked foods. (2) Cooking losses were particularly...

This paper throws light on household cooking related exposures and level of indoor air pollutants (particulate matter and gaseous pollutants CO, CO2, SO2, NO, NO2) in different exposure area from the different types of cooking fuels used. Still the prevalence of biomass fuels exists in Indian households, combustion of which releases higher levels of solid and gaseous pollutants during the cooki...
