Food processing involves several basic unit operations including size reduction to break foods into smaller pieces, mixing and agitation to combine ingredients, separation processes to remove components, heating and cooling steps to prepare foods for consumption, and packaging to contain the finished product. These unit operations are the core building blocks used across food manufacturing to transform raw ingredients into value-added consumer foods.
