1 Food Structures, Building Blocks and Food Properties
1.1 Introduction to food structure
Food products
- Many food products have soft solid appearance
(in this course)
- Many products contain high concentrations of
protein, carbohydrates or oil
- Product behavior is difficult to study, to control
and to predict -> focus on generic behavior
- Properties determined by
• Composition
• Structure
Types of structures
Anisotropic = mechanical properties are different in two directions
-> Different properties that depend on the orientation
Isotropic = emulsion in which the mechanical properties are
homogeneous
-> Equal properties in all directions -> (network of) particles in solution
a. highly fibrous structure -> alignment already at the level of the
size of proteins
d. Particles are a simple emulsion in solution
e. Interaction between bubbles/particles -> larger effect
(thickening)
f. Particles/bubbles are aligned -> more solid
• Different if you break or cut it
Composition – three main components
- Not (well) miscible -> they normally disperse into each other
- By making use of different techniques we combine the ingredients to
make different food products
- Other main ingredient is air
