Proprietati Ciocolata
Cocoa powder Cocoa nib with some of the fat removed and
ground into a powder.
Conche A machine in which the chocolate is kept under
agitation,so thattheflavour isdevelopedand the
chocolate becomes liquid.
Sometimes used for machines which treat cocoa
mass to remove volatile components.
Chocolatl Drink made from crushed cocoa beans devel-
oped by the Aztecs.
Countline An individual unit normally purchased and eaten
by the consumerininformal surroundings, e.g.
Mars Bar.
Couverture Legal use, high-fat (Le. over 31% cocoa butter),
normally high-quality chocolate. In this book,
these are referred to as high-fat couvertures.
Common UK use as biscuit-coating chocolate,
often containing other fats.
Crumb Intermediate material in the milk chocolate
making process, composed of dehydrated milk,
sugar and cocoa mass.
Dietetic chocolate 'Chocolate' made for people with special dietary
requirements, e.g. diabetics.
Enrober Machinefor coatingsweetcentrewithchocolate, by
pouring molten chocolate over it.
Fermentation A process in which cocoa beans are treated such
thatchemical changeis brought about byenzyme
action. This usually involves removing the beans
from the podsand placingthemincoveredheaps for
an extended period.
Husk The shell round the nib or kernel.
Lecithin Class of organic compounds similar to fats but
with molecules containing nitrogen and phos-
phorus. Used in chocolate as a surface-active
agent to improve its flow properties.
Lipid Generic term for oils, fats and waxes.
Micronizer Device for the radiant heating ofcocoa beans so as
to loosen the shell.
GLOSSARY 393
Milk fat replacer A vegetable fat used to replace milk fat in
chocolate
Non-Newtonian liquid A liquid whose viscosity varies according to the
rate at which it is stirred (sheared).
Origin liquor Cocoa mass manufactured in the country of
origin of the beans.
Outer Box containing a number of retail units.
Plastic viscosity Relates to the amount ofenergy required to keep
a non-Newtonian liquid moving once it has
started to move (see also yield value).
Polymorphism Theexistenceofthesamesubstance in more than
two different crystalline forms.
Precrystallization A method of producing a small percentage of
crystalsofthe correctform within thechocolate,
e.g. as occurs in a temperer.
Refiner Roll mill, often with five rolls, used to grind solid
chocolate ingredients. In some countries it also
refers to machines for changing the flavour of
cocoamass. Thisis not used in thiscontext in this
book.
Temperer Amachinefor cooling/heatingchocolate to form
stable fat crystals.
Winnowing The separation ofa light material from a denser
one by blowing air over them. In the case of
cocoa,theshellis blownawayfrom thecocoanib
and collected separately.
Yield value Relates to the amount ofenergy required to start
a non-Newtonian liquid moving (see also plastic
viscosity).
