Note:

Weight, Measurements, and Equivalents


14
Accurate measurement in baking ingredients produces high-quality products. This ensures that
the proportion of ingredients with other ingredients produces a consistent result in accordance to standards.
Remember that the behavior of ingredients with other ingredients in recipe is not only dependent on the kind of
ingredients, but also on the amount of these ingredients.

Measuring the right amount of ingredients depends largely on the use of standard measuring
tools and in the correct technique in measuring so that accuracy in measurement is obtained. There are three
methods commonly used in measurements, namely: by volume, by weight, and by units. The standard
measuring cups and spoons are examples of tools for volumetric measure; the dietetic scale and weighing scale
are tools for weighing.

Abbreviations and Symbols


For easier reading, units of weight and measure can be written in abbreviations and symbols.
Some of the commonly used abbreviations and symbols are:

Capacity/Volume: Weight: Temperature: Time:

Bushel (bu) Gram (g) Degrees Centigrade (°C) Hour (hr)


Cubic centimeter (cc) Kilogram (kg) Degrees Fahrenheit (°F) Minute (min)
Fluid ounce (fl.oz) Microgram (mcg) or Second (sec)
Gallon (gal) (ug)
Liter (L) Milligram (mg)
Milliliter (ml) Ounce (oz)
Pint (pt) Pound (lb)
Quart (qt)
Tablespoon (tbsp.) or
(T)
Teaspoon (tsp) or (t)

All abbreviations are in singular form regardless whether the ingredient is singular or plural.

5. Units of Measurements for Oven Temperature


Oven Temperature Gide

This is an approximate guide only. Various kinds of stoves and even the same kind
can give slightly different results at the same temperature. If in doubt with your stove’s
temperature guide, refer to the manufacturer’s temperature chart. At present, most ovens in the
Philippines havr thermostats set in degrees Fahrenheit, but as metric measures become more
widely used, there are ovens that are now in degrees Celsius.

The following chart gives approximate conversions from degrees Fahrenheit to


degrees Celsius. This chart can also be used for conversion of recipes, which give oven
temperatures in metric measures.

Correct Techniques in Measuring Ingredients


Correct techniques in measuring is as important as using the standard tools to obtain accuracy.

Step in Measuring Some Baking Ingredients

Flour
1. If the recipe requires unsifted flour, do not sift. If the recipe requires sifted flour, the
sift before measuring.
2. Scoop flour with a scooper. Use a big plastic spoon or metal spoon in the absence of a
scooper.
3. Fill up the measuring cup until it overflows. Do not tap nor shake measuring cup, nor press
the
flour inside the measuring cup.
4. Level off with a spatula.

Follow the same procedure with granulated white sugar, confectioner’s sugar, baking powder,
baking soda, powdered milk, powdered cocoa, and designated coconut.

Brown Sugar
1. Remove the lumps in the brown sugar.
2. Fill up the measuring cup with brown sugar.
3. Press down the brown sugar to the bottom of measuring cup until it is packed.
4. Continue doing this until you have reached the top. Level it using the back part of the
spoon.
5. A well- packed brown sugar follows the shape of measuring cup when inverted.

Shortening
Solid Fats or Margarine

1. Fill up the measuring cup with shortening.


2. Press down to the bottom of the measuring cup until al vacant spaces are filled up.
3. Continue doing this until you reached the top of the cup.
4. Level off with spatula.

Liquid Fat or Oil

1. Place the glass measuring cup on the flat stable surface.


2. Pour the oil into measuring cup to the measuring mark indicated by lines in the cup.
3. Stop pouring when it reaches the measuring mark or line. Measuring of other liquid, such
as
19
evaporated milk, juices, or water, follows the same procedure as stated.

Butter
Butter follows the same procedure as in margarine. However, a half-pound of butter (about 22
grams) is approximately on cup. If you need a fraction of a cup, just divide the butter into required portion and
cut.

Occupational Health and


Safety in the Kitchen
20
Learning 1. Identify hazards and risks
Outcome: 2. Evaluate hazards and risks
3. Control hazards and risks
4. Maintain occupational health and safety
awareness

Lecture ‘s
Note:

Occupational health and safety is concerned with the general well-being of workers in the
workplace. Specifically, it aims to protect the health, as well as safety, of workers while working in order to
promote a high level of efficiency and productivity.

Identifying Hazards and Risks in the Workplace

21
Work hazards and risks come from different sources in the workplace. It can come from the
physical environment, the workers themselves, the machines and equipment, facilities, materials in the work
process, or work practices that can cause harm or injury to the individual, to the organization, to property, and
equipment.

Several Types of Hazards Found in the Workplace

1. Physical Hazards – These are brought about unhealthy working conditions, poor lighting, poor
ventilation, insufficient facilities, inefficient or faulty equipment or machine, and improper work
practices such as wrong use of knives.

2. Biological Hazards – These are brought about by workers infected with disease or illness, unhygienic
personal practices that can transmit bacteria, parasites, fungi to other workers and to the food and
equipment being handled.

3. Ergonomic Hazards – These are brought about by poor posture when working long periods of
standing, bending, pushing, lifting, carrying that can cause body stress, muscle pains, and soreness,
back injury, numbness of hands, feet, and other parts of the body.

4. Psychological Hazards – These are brought about by too much stress.

22
5. Chemical Hazards – These are brought about by the use of chemicals such as disinfectants for
cleaning equipment and floorings, fumes, and smokes from cooking.

Strategies in Identifying Hazards and Risks


In identifying hazards and risks in the workplace, the following strategies can be used:

1. Observe your workplace.


2. Interview co-workers of any complaints.
3. Look into past record of work related injuries, accidents, and illnesses. Find out their causes.
4. Gather other information about the workplace from other people from the community that relate
to hazards and risks.

From the data gathered, make an evaluation on the extent of hazards and risks present in the
workplace.

Controlling Hazards and Risks in the Workplace


Once you have identified and evaluated the hazards and risks in the workplace, you can now find
ways to eliminate, control, or reduce them.

1. Eliminating or removing completely the cause of the hazard.


2. Substituting with a less hazardous one.
3. Engineering control.
4. Administrative control.
5. Wearing protective equipment.

Safety Practices in the Kitchen

Safety Regulations
1. The Clean Air Act of 199

This law is also known as Republic Act No. 8749. It sets a comprehensive air quality
management policy and program, which aims to provide and maintain healthy air for all citizens of the country.

2. Waste Management

a. This is a government program designed to install awareness on people on how to


manage their household wastes by implementing waste management practices.
24
Waste management is the collection, transport, and processing (recycling or
disposal) of waste materials. Waste materials include:

 Solid waste
 Liquid waste

b. Waste materials can be:

 Biodegradable
 Non-biodegradable

c. Waste materials can be:

 Hazardous
 Non-hazardous

d. Process Flow of Waste Management

There are five step in waste management:

 Reduce – buy less and use less.


 Reuse – discarded items are used again.
 Recycle – discarded items are separated into materials that may be incorporated
into new products
 Recover – acquiring useful materials for waste to energy programs.
 Dispose – leftover waste after separating the recyclable and reusable wastes.

Disaster Preparedness and Management

This aims to prevent or minimize losses through quick and appropriate assistance extended to
victims of disaster and attain recovery from the disaster.

Mitigation

25 Preparedness
Recovery
Disaster Management Cycle
1. Mitigation – is reducing impacts of disaster to people and properties.
2. Preparedness – is planning how to respond when disaster strikes.
3. Response – is the effort exerted to reduce the impact/effect of the disaster to affected people and
property.
4. Recovery – is the return to normally life.

Electrical and Fire Safety Code


This code contains precaution on how to prevent or reduce fire occurrence at home and in the
workplace that may result to death, injury, and loss or properties. Fire safety measures include safety rules
implemented in the construction of a building or in any existing structures and orientation given to occupants of
a building in dealing with fire. Celebrating the Fire Prevention Months and conducting fire drills instill
awareness of fire safety practices.

Fire Drill Activities:


1. Use of fire alarm system in case of fire.
2. Operation of fire emergency measures such as paging system, elevator protocol, smoke protocol, and
equipment protocol.
3. Performance of duties of the staff members in relation to the company’s safety plan.
4. Assessment of the response made during the fire drill.
5. Documentation of the fire drill results.
6. Extent of participation of all those results.
7. Extent of participation of all those concerned.

Contingency Measures and Procedure

26
A contingency plan is a written emergency plan. It is a plan of action to be taken to reduce
hazards and consequences from fires, earthquakes, explosion, chemical wastes that may pollute the air, soil, and
water.

A contingency plan should include the following:

1. Emergency procedures in response to fires, explosion, chemical wastes, etc.


2. Arrangement between the local police, fire department, hospital, and other concerned agencies.
3. List of names, addresses, phone numbers of people who can help respond to the emergencies.
4. Updated list of facilities and equipment in the building (fire extinguishers, exits, alarm systems,
communication systems, personal protective equipment, stored chemicals, and fire hazard
substances, clean-up equipment, etc.)
5. Evacuation plan of personnel and workers. Evacuation is the immediate movement of people away
from the hazard scene, such as earthquake or fire scenario.
