    What food preservation technique involves low temperature? - ProProfs

    What food preservation technique involves low temperature?

    • Frying

    • Freezing

    • Smoking

    • Sundrying

    Correct Answer
    A. Freezing
    Explanation
    Freezing is a food preservation technique that involves low temperature. By freezing food, the growth of microorganisms is slowed down or halted, preventing spoilage and extending the shelf life of the food. The low temperature inhibits the enzymatic activity in the food, preserving its quality, texture, and nutrients. Freezing also helps to maintain the natural flavors and freshness of the food.

    Which of these is not an external factor as far as food quality is concerned? - ProProfs

    Which of these is not an external factor as far as food quality is concerned?

    • Texture

    • Taste

    • Flavour

    • Appearance

    Correct Answer
    A. Taste
    Explanation
    The question asks for an external factor as far as food quality is concerned. Taste is not an external factor because it is subjective and varies from person to person. External factors refer to aspects of food quality that can be objectively measured or influenced by external factors such as storage, handling, and preparation. Texture, flavor, and appearance are all external factors as they can be affected by factors outside of the food itself.

    Which of these would make a food substance alkaline? - ProProfs

    Which of these would make a food substance alkaline?

    • Vinegar

    • Milk

    • Sodium Hydroxide

    • Camphor

    Correct Answer
    A. Sodium Hydroxide
    Explanation
    Sodium Hydroxide would make a food substance alkaline because it is a strong base. When it is dissolved in water, it dissociates into hydroxide ions (OH-) which can accept protons (H+) from other substances, increasing the pH and making the solution alkaline. Vinegar, milk, and camphor are not alkaline substances. Vinegar is acidic due to the presence of acetic acid, milk is slightly acidic due to lactic acid, and camphor is a neutral substance.

    What is the earliest form of curing? - ProProfs

    What is the earliest form of curing?

    • Smoking

    • Frying

    • Salting

    • Dehydration

    Correct Answer
    A. Dehydration
    Explanation
    Dehydration is the earliest form of curing because it involves removing moisture from food, which helps to prevent the growth of bacteria and prolongs its shelf life. This method has been used for centuries as a way to preserve food, especially in areas where refrigeration was not available. Smoking, frying, and salting are also methods of preserving food, but dehydration is considered the earliest and most basic form of curing.

    Which of these is not a selection criterion used in degustations? - ProProfs

    Which of these is not a selection criterion used in degustations?

    • Bacteriological and chemical analysis

    • Texture analysis

    • Nutrition and health claims

    • Sensory analysis

    Correct Answer
    A. Texture analysis
    Explanation
    Texture analysis is not a selection criterion used in degustations. Degustations are focused on evaluating the sensory aspects of food and drink, such as taste, aroma, and appearance. Texture analysis, on the other hand, involves measuring the physical properties of food, such as hardness, chewiness, and viscosity. While texture is an important aspect of food evaluation, it is not specifically used as a selection criterion in degustations.
