How Cooking Affects Vegetables
1. Nutrients
-Heat sometimes destroys the nutrients of vegetables by dissolving it in the
cooking
water.
2. Texture
- Heat softens the cellulose or fiber in cell walls of vegetables, making them tender.
Use a small amount of water in cooking vegetables to make it tender and crisp.
3. Color
- Properly cooked vegetables are colorful. Overcooked green vegetables may look
unpleasant.
4. Flavor
- Cooking releases flavors, making vegetables tastier and crispier. Overcooked
vegetables become bland with the unpleasant flavor.
Six Factors and other causes
1. High Temperature
2. Long Cooking
3. Leaching (Dissolving Out)
4. Alkalis
5. Plant Enzymes (Which are active at warm temperature but
destroyed by high heat
6. Oxygen
Other Causes of Nutrient Losses
7. Pressure steaming and high temperature destroy some vitamins.
8. Braising
9. Baking and Extended Cooking at high temperature
10.Boiling may break up delicate vegetables and increase loss
through blanching
11.Cutting vegetables into small pieces creates more exposed
surfaces that drain the vegetable’s nutrients.
12.Steaming allows draining out of nutrients from the vegetables
General Rules of Cookery
5. Microwaving
-Fresh vegetables retain their flavors and crisp texture when cooked
over a microwave. Microwave cooking is done without any additional
liquid, thus preserving the nutrients
6. Puréeing
-Puréeing is a technique often used with vegetables. Cooked
ingredient vegetable purées can be served as is. They can also be used as an
for another dish such as pumpkin pie, mashed potatoes, or vegetable soufflés.
