Dried Food
Centuries ago, man discovered that removing moisture(hơi ẩm) from food to preserve it and that the easist way to do it is to expose the food to sun and wind In this way the North American indians produce pemmican ( dried meat ground(xay, nghien) into power and made into cakes), the Scandinavians make stockfish(cá khô) and the Arabs dried dates and "apricot leather"
All foods contain water-cabbage and other leaf vegetables contain as much as 93% water, potatoes and other root vegetables 80%, lean meat 75% and fish anything from 80% to 60% depending on how fatty it is If this water is removed, the activity of
the bacteria which cause food to go bad is checked.
Fruit is sun-dried in Asia minor, Greece, Spain and other Mediterranean countries, and also in California, South Africa and Australia The methods used vary, but in general, the fruit is spread out on trays in drying yards in the hot sun In order to prevent
darkening, pears, peaches and apricots are exposed to the fumes(khói, hơi) of burning sulphur(lưu huỳnh) before drying Plums(quả mận), for making prunes(mận khô), and certain varieties of grapes for making raisins(nho khô) and curants(nho Hy lap), are dipped(nhúng) into an alkaline(kiềm) solution in order to crack(lam vỡ, rạn nứt) the skins
of the fruit slightly and remove their wax coating (chất nhựa bên ngoài), so increasing the rate of drying
Nowadays most foods are dried mechanically The conventional method of such
dehydration (khử nước) is to put food in chamber (ham) through which hot air is blown at
Trang 3temperature of about 110 C at entry to about 43 C at exit This is the usual method for drying such things as vegetables, minced meat, and fish
Liquids such as milk, coffee, tea, soups and eggs may be dried by pouring them over a heated horizontal(nam ngang) steel cylinder(hinh tru) or by spraying them into a chamber through which a current of hot air passes In the first case, the dried material is scraped(nạo, cạo) off the roller(lăn, cuộn) as a thin film which is then broken up into a small, though still relatively coarse( thô) flakes In the second process it falls to the bottom of the chamber as a fine powder Where recognizable pieces of meat and
vegetables are required, as in soup, the ingredients are dried separately and then mixed
