Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book examines the previously little-studied changes that occur in various food groups when cooked. It focuses particularly on potatoes, carrots, and cabbage - vegetables that represent the three main culinary categories: tubers, roots, and leafy greens. Over three carefully-controlled cooking experiments were carried out to compare the loss of nutrients in each vegetable, whether boiled with or without the skin, and when placed in hot water versus cold water. The author also conducted a digestion experiment with a human subject who ate a diet consisting mainly of potatoes and eggs, finding that while the protein content was not completely absorbed by the body, the carbohydrates were well-digested. This book not only provides data and insights into how cooking impacts these vegetables, but also explores the scientific basis for cooking methods to assist the reader in maximizing nutrient retention in the foods they eat. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item. N° de réf. du vendeur 9780331801026_0
