Unit 6 Text low-cal dishes-dieters' delight

Each year, more Americans - women, men, and now the teen­age crowd, accept calorie-watching as a way of life. It follows, of course, that as these numbers grow they represent a larger and larger segment of your clientele. As an apparent trend, it bids for attention, suggests a review of your menu with the possible need for change.

We are in a diet-conscious age. Many of your patrons realize that they weigh more than they should, and are serious about losing the unwanted pounds. And there are others, not over-weight, who are equally resolved. They haven't the least intention of gaining a few pounds. For the greater part, it's an earnest endeavor. Far more than a fad, it's concern for appearance, a safeguard to health.

How does all this concern you? Obviously, there is an expanding market for varied, attractive meals that meet caloric demands. There are a number of leads you can follow to keep in tune with this growing need. It is not difficult to plan a menu that includes lean meat, poultry or fish, succulent vegetables and simple egg dishes.

You can star items that can be streamlined for would-be weight-watchers. Offer to prepare them without extra butter or sauce;

substituting a compatible garnish with a caloric count that is practically nil.

You can also offer smaller portions - billed as such - to patrons in quest of a "lighter" meal. A three or four ounce beef pattie, a single lamb chop, a two egg omelet, a half-breast of chicken, or a broiled baby scrod are among the items that would apply.

Low-calorie luncheon combinations, presented with style, appeal to earnest dieters and the calorie-conscious alike. Base each meal on a protein food. Choose from lean, well-trimmed cuts of meat, chicken, turkey or one of the many varieties offish that are low in fat. Or take eggs or cottage cheese as the starting point. And simply prepared vegetables and/or salad with a low-calorie dessert to round out the meal.

Unit 7 Text wheat products

A large number of different cereals can enter into the manufacture of flour. It may be made from rye, barley, corn, etc. But the foremost of all these is wheat. Wheat flour is known to be used in all bakery products. Some wheats give a high yield and are distinguished for excellent baking quality.

Durum wheat is used for the manufacture of the best grades of macaroni goods. This kind of wheat is seldom used in bread baking because of the high creamy colour, which is retained in the baked products.

As mentioned above macaroni is one of the many foods made from wheat. Durum wheat ordinarily contains a high percentage of gluten, the quality of which is especially suitable for macaroni products. Durum is spring wheat, which means that it is planted in spring. It originated in the Orient, either in China or Japan. It seems to be more likely that German travellers learned how to make noodles during their visits to Asia. In the fifteenth century the Italians learned from Germans how to make noodles. Macaroni was first made by hand. A small macaroni industry developed first in Italy and by 1800 the first mechanical devices for the manufacture of macaroni products appeared in Italy. Now large and complex machines are used to make macaroni of uniform high quality under carefully controlled conditions. Nowadays only in south-east Asia there are many small shops where macaroni is still made just as it was made many centuries ago.

Bread. To form dough the flour, water, yeast and salt with any other ingredients, such as fat, yeast activators must be mixed in mixers.

The second main phase of bread production is fermentation. Then the dough is cut into accurately weighed individual pieces, the latter being shaped into the form of a loaf.

The baking process is the last and at the same time the most important step in the production of bread. The final processing of baked bread includes its cooling, slicing and wrapping.
