Review
Protein and fat are both broad and complex categories
Many factors influence how these components behave during cooking
Fats melt
Proteins
coagulate
(Martha – put something basic about nutrition here)Slide3
First Let’s Cook!
Each group will make a basic vinaigrette using one of 4 common oils
Everyone will get to try each version
Each group will cook chicken using dry heat and moist heat
Saute
about 80% of the chicken in the same oil you use for your dressing, you will share with everyone
Poach about 20% of the chicken for your own group
Each group will slice a cucumber to try the dressings
Cut the slices in half for samplingSlide4
ProteinSlide5
Chemical Structure of Proteins
“Proteins” contain no less than 100 amino acids
Order and combination gives unique propertiesSlide6
Protein Denaturation
Physical change in the shape of the protein
Tertiary and quaternary structure affected
Can be caused by UV light/radiation, heat, salt, pH, solvents
Coagulation can occur after proteins denature
Most desirable functions require protein denaturation firstSlide7
Functional Properties of Proteins
Thickening and Gelling
Depends on the concentration of the protein
Gelatin
Water holding
Coagulated proteins cannot hold water
Overcooked meats, eggs are tough or rubbery
Foaming
Egg white foamsSlide8
Functions of Protein in the Body
Protein in food broken down to amino acids
Amino acids used to build body protein
Muscle tissue
Part of every cell
Important for building and repairing cells/tissues
22 amino acids: 9 essential- must come from food
Contributes to satiety
Excess used for energy
Spread protein throughout the day (at least about 15 g/meal)

Fats and Oils (Lipids)Slide10
Chemical Structure of Lipids
Glycerol backbone
1, 2, or 3 Fatty acids attached
1 =
Monoglyceride
2 = Diglyceride
3 = TriglycerideSlide11

Common Sources of Lipids
Animal lipids are more saturated
Solid fats
Exception = fish oil
Plant lipids are less saturated
Liquid oils
Exception = some tropical plantsSlide13
Functional Properties of Lipids
Color
Promotes browning
Flavor
Add unique flavor
Carries lipid soluble flavors
Texture
Promotes crispness of foods
Emulsions, flaky pastry, tenderness and leavening in baked goodsSlide14
Functions of Lipids (Fats) in the Body
Part of brain and skin tissue and every
cell- some fatty acids are essential
Hormone
precurser
Provides insulation and protection of body organs
Slows digestion and promotes satiety
Necessary for absorption of fat soluble vitamins
Provides
energy
Lots of emerging newer science on health effects of dietary fats
Whole foods
vs individual fatty
acids
