COMMENT ON DE
BOOK:
Given the importance of food, there are many universities and
technical schools that have degrees in Food Technology, where the composition
and chemical properties of food are studied in depth.
This book is addressed to
s tudents and professors of food
chemistry and p rofessionals
from the agri - food
sector who wish to have some knowledge about the chemistry of food and its
manufacturing processes.
The most current knowledge related to food, its chemical
composition, properties, nutritional value, people's energy expenditure, food
additives, nutritional labeling, people's weight (Body Mass Index, BMI) are
presented. And functional foods, genetically modified foods, antioxidants,
omega-3 fatty acids, probiotics, prebiotics, food and nutritional safety, etc.
A study of each specific food is
also made: milk, cheese, yogurt, meats, sausages, fish, shellfish, fats, oils,
juices, jams, nectars, eggs, sugars, flours, breads, cakes, cocoa, chocolate,
candies, nougat, cookies, sauces, nuts, honey, coffee, tea, etc.
Equipment and techniques for preparing and
packaging all types of food are studied, such as those mentioned in the previous
paragraph. Practical exercises are included in each
chapter, with the solutions at the end of the book. Thus, this work is of great
interest for TRAINING COURSES. Of course, it is a very
suitable reference book for professionals in the food sector, official bodies,
companies dedicated to providing training courses, teachers and students, etc.
