Introduction to Food Preparation
Across time and
cultures, food is one
thing that unites us all
- which is even all the
more remarkable when
you consider that
humans are the only
creatures on Earth that
don't eat the majority
of their food as they
find it.
Sometimes out
of necessity (as with
many types of meat)
and sometimes simply
to enhance flavor,
humans generally
prepare their food
before eating it. Food preparation is a broad topic, involving all of the steps that occur
between obtaining raw ingredients and consuming them as food. It’s something simplistic and
complex, ubiquitous, and artistic personal and universal. The art and science of cookery for the
form of a noble profession, with a rich history and long traditions. With knowledge skill, taste,
judgment, dedication, and pride, the student chef can become part of this profession. In this
learning manual, we provide you with basic knowledge an describe the technique at which you
must become skilled. Dedicate yourself to learning this information and mastering your skills.
Once you have done take pride in your accomplishments.

Kitchen – Its Structure, Uses, and Care
Food preparation is greatly related to the kitchen
layout and the equipment and utensils and other items
in it. Every kitchen is made up of three main activity
centers: the storage and preparation center, the
cooking center, and he clean up or washing center.
Remember!
The work involved in all three is so interrelated that Brigade is also known as
these must not be too widely separated but must form organizational chart of the
a compact work unit. Effective use of the kitchen space kitchen. Aguste Escoffier
and equipment is achieved when range, sink, and established the kitchen
refrigerator are fairly close to each other, with sufficient hierarchy.
working surface and storage cabinets interspersed
among them.
L-shaped kitchen
L-shaped kitchen the work centers are placed along two adjacent walls. A natural eating
corner is created without sacrificing space from the work area. An easy flow of work
from the refrigerator to sink to the range is possible in this arrangement of work centers.
10
Island Kitchen
The island kitchen is usually a modified U-shaped or L-shape arrangement of activity
centers. Excellent use of the island is as a cooking or mixing center. The addition of a
chopping-block-top and a utensil-hanging-rack makes the design of the kitchen island
attractive.
Corridor kitchen
The corridor kitchen is the simplest and most economical arrangement. The corridor
must be at least four feet wide and should have a dead-end to prevent traffic from the
work triangle.

Bake – cook in an oven
Barbecue – baste meat from time to time with a highly seasoned sauce as it cooks by
direct heat over coals, in an oven or under a broiler.
13
Baste – moisten food while it is being baked to prevent it from drying out.
Blanch or scald –put boiling water over food or dip the food into boiling water and then
into cold water.
Boil – cook in the liquid until bubbles appear and rise to the top and break on the surface.
Broil – cook by direct heat
Braise – brown meat or vegetable in a small amount of liquid
Fry – cook in hot fat without cover
Fricassee – cook by braising
Melt – change a solid to a liquid by boiling
Poach – cook foods in hot liquid just below the boiling point
Roast – cook meat or poultry uncovered in the oven without added moisture
Scald –heat liquid in the upper part of a double boiler until tiny bubbles appear around
the edge.
Steam – cook food by steam in a covered steamer rather than in boiling water.
Steep –cover tea leaves with boiling water and allow to stand, to extract the flavor, color,
and aroma from the leaves
Simmer – cook just below boiling point
Sear – brown meat quickly on all sides at high temperature to develop flavor and improve
its appearance.
Stew – cook food for a long time in a small amount of liquid at simmering temperature.
Table of Measurement
14
Scoops - are used for portioning soft solid foods. Scoops come in standard sizes and
have levers for mechanical release. Scoop sizes are listed below:
Mise en place (French pronunciation: [mi zɑ̃ ˈplas]) is a French culinary phrase which
means "putting in place" or "everything in its place". It refers to the set-up required before
cooking, and is often
used in professional
kitchens to refer to
organizing and
arranging the
ingredients (e.g., cuts of
meat, relishes, sauces,
par-cooked items,
spices, freshly chopped
vegetables, and other
components) that a
cook will require for the
menu items that are
expected to be prepared
during a shift.
15
Chef's Knife
A chef's knife (also called a French knife) has a broad, tapered shape and a fine sharp
edge. Its blade ranges in length from 6 to 12 inches and measures at least 1-1/2 inches at
the widest point. It is designed so it rocks on a cutting board as it cuts food.
Parts of a French Knife
Features of a Knife
Include how it was constructed, edge form and type, and the materials used to make
its blade and handle.
Types of
Edges
Certain edges are designed to match certain types of food. While there are many
types of edges available, the most basic ones are straight, serrated, and granton.
16
Types of Handles
The handle is
important for stability. The
material used for making it is
important not only for
aesthetic purposes but also
for comfort and durability.
• Wood
• Plastic
• Stainless Steel

The Cooking Process
Transfer Heat – the relationship between heat transfer and cooking.
Three Types of Heat Transfer
A. Conduction
Conduction is the process of heat being
transferred between objects through direct contact,
and it's the most common type of heat transfer.
Ex. In cooking the burners on stoves will conduct
heat energy to the bottom of a pan sitting on top of
it. From there, the pan conducts heat to its contents.
B. Radiation
Radiation is the process where heat and light waves
strike and penetrate your food. As such, there is no
direct contact between the heat source and the cooking
food. There are two main radiant heat cooking methods:
infrared and microwave radiation.
Infrared radiation utilizes an electric or ceramic
heating element that gives off electromagnetic energy
waves.
Microwave Radiation microwave radiation utilizes short, high-frequency waves that
penetrate food, which agitates its water molecules to create friction and transfer heat.
Examples of Radiation Cooking
❖ Warming your hands over a fire
❖ Lying in the sun to get warm
❖ Heating dinner in the microwave
C. Mechanical Convection
Mechanical convection occurs when outside forces circulate heat, which shortens
cooking times and cook’s food more evenly.
Ex. Stirring liquid in a pot or when a convection oven uses a fan and exhaust
system to blow hot air over and around the food before venting it back out.
Methods of Cooking
• Braising - a good technique for cooking tougher cuts of meat, such as those
from older animals, or ones that naturally contain more connective tissues.
19
• Stewing – a combination cooking method that uses small, uniform pieces
of meat that are totally immersed in the liquid and slowly simmered.
• Poaching - refers to cooking food in a liquid that has a temperature ranging
from 140 F to 180 F. Poaching is typically reserved for cooking very delicate
items like eggs and fish
• Simmering - is distinguished by cooking temperatures that are a bit hotter
than with poaching—from 180 F to 205 F. See bubbles forming and gently
rising to the surface of the water, but the water is not yet at a full rolling boil.
• Boiling - is the hottest of these three stages, where the water reaches its
highest possible temperature of 212 F. It's the method that is least likely to
be used in cooking.
• Steaming - Once water is heated past the 212 F mark, it stops being water
and turns into steam. As far as physical agitation goes, steaming is very
gentle, making it ideal for cooking seafood and other delicate items.
B. Dry Heat Cooking
Refers to any cooking technique where the heat is transferred to the food item
without using extra moisture. This method typically involves high temperatures—300 F
or hotter.
• Sautéing - requires a hot pan before cooking. When sautéing, it's important
to heat the pan for a minute, then add a small amount of fat (such as oil) and
let it heat up before adding ingredients to the pan
• Pan-Frying - Closely resembles sautéing, but pan-frying uses slightly more
fat and a slightly lower temperature than sautéing. This makes it a good
method for cooking larger pieces of meat that need longer to cook.
• Roasting – uses dry heat where hot air covers the food, cooking it evenly
on all sides with temperatures of at least 150 °C from an open flame, oven,
or another heat source.
• Baking - method of preparing food that uses dry heat, normally in an
oven, but can also be done in hot ashes, or on hot stones. The most
common baked item is bread but many other types of foods are baked.
• Broiling - is another dry heat cooking method that relies on the heat being
conducted through the air. Because air is a relatively poor conductor of heat,
broiling, require the food to be quite close to the heat source, which in this
case is likely to be an open flame.
• Grilling - involves heating the food from below, while broiling involves
heating from above. In both cases, the food is typically turned once during
cooking, and a grid or grate of some kind can be used, giving the food the
distinctive grill-marks that are the hallmark of this cooking technique.
• Deep Frying - involves submerging the food in hot, liquid fat, it might take
some time to get used to the idea that it's a form of dry heat cooking.

21
Food Additives - are not intended to
slow down the threat of microbes or
fungus.
Food additives are added to foods in a
precise amount during processing. They
are technologically justified for:
• Maintaining the nutritional
quality of the food;
• Enhancing the keeping quality
or stability of food thereby
reducing food wastage; and
• Making food attractive to
consumers in a manner which
precludes deception; and
• Providing essential aids in food
processing
Seasoning - means to bring out or intensify the natural flavor of the food without
changing it. Seasonings are usually added near the end of the cooking period. The most
common seasonings are salt, pepper, and acids (such as lemon juice).
Flavoring -refers to something that changes or modifies the original flavor of the food.
Flavoring can be used to contrast a taste such as adding liqueur to a dessert where both
the added flavor and the original flavor are perceptible.
22
Fruit and Vegetable Carving
The purpose of fruit and vegetable carving is to make food more attractive, more
appetizing, and also easier to eat.
The accomplished homemaker
welcomes her guests with fruit
carefully pared, seeded, and
perhaps cut into bite-size slices
depending on the type. Vegetables
are first delicately carved, then
cooked, and finally arranged
attractively to decorate the dish
which they are part of. Needless to
say, guests are greatly pleased to
be honored with such a gracious
welcome, displaying as it does the good feelings and willing hospitality of the maker.

Appetizers
37
Classes of Appetizers
• Hors d’oeuvres – are small bits of marinated vegetables, fish, hardboiled
egg, pickles, sardines, olives, sausages, fruits.
• Canapés- are alternatively dainty open-faced sandwiches, they are small
tasted slices of tastes a grilled bread or cracker biscuits topped with
seasoned spreads.
• Cocktails- a short drink need with flavouring ingredients served in a
small glass.
• Relishes- are selected vegetables cut into small pieces and served
chilled.
• Dips- appetizers in which other food items are dipped. They are popular
when serve with crackers, chips, and vegetables.
• Petite Salad – is a small salad similar to a large salad but less filling.
• Soups- are considered appetizers because they are usually served before
the main course of the dinner.
Other appetizers:
• Antipasto – an Italian appetizer consists of relishes, canapés, etc.
preceding the macaroni course.
• Aperitif- any drink used as an appetizer.
Appetizers can be classified as follows:
• Fruit appetizer
• Canapés
• Grilled or over the coal appetizer
• Party Breads and Pastries
• Tasty Tidbits
• Vegetables hors d’ oeuvres
• Beverages
Composition of Appetizer
Varieties – appetizers are group by whether they are served hot or cold. They
can be mixed a matched and base on the themed season and ethnic region.
General Rules for Holding Appetizer
1. Keep holding times for furnishes product as short as possible.
2. Keep moist and dry ingredients, and assembly the two as close to use times as
possible.
3. Keep cold foods cold and hot food hot not only for taste and eye appeal for the
sake of safety.
4. Plan production carefully with all these other rules in mind.
38
Serving Appetizer:
Appetizers are usually served from a large platter usually have a toothpick for
holding them while serving. Serving an appetizer must be simple, group all kinds together
and pass them once or twice and let the guests help themselves.
Hot and Cold Appetizers
Hors d’oeuvres are often serve to precede a meal; they are served as the food
at cocktail parties involving alcoholic beverages.
a. Hot Hors d’oeuvres are served between the soup and fish course. In today’s
shortened menus, they are often served instead of hot entrée. The size and
richness depend upon the composition of the menu. Many hot hors d’oeuvres
are suited for serving a small ala carte dish, and usually described as a hot
dish.
b. Cold hors d’oeuvres should stimulate appetite, and therefore should always
be served at the first course on the menu.
Five Types of Cold hors d’oeuvres and Serving
• Plate of Hors d’oeuvres may consist of shrimps, smoked beef, poached egg,
Spanish sardines and lettuce; the sauce can be served at the side.
• Grison Platter may consist of two kinds of cold meat, such as ham, smoked beef,
peppered ham. The sauce can be served at the side.
• Hors d’oeuvres Platter. A well-presented platter with a limited choice of simple
or more expensive foods. The basic rule is “small quantity, but big in quality” and
at the same time attractively served. It may consist of shrimps with jelly, asparagus
tip with mushrooms, sardines with onion rings, tomatoes stuffed with salad and
chicken loaf.
• Assorted hors d’oeuvres can be served in special portioned platters with dishes
or even from a serving cart.
• Rich hors d’oeuvres still a classical form of presentation. Lobster should always
be included. The hors d’oeuvres dish system in conjunction with a silver platter
can be used, but it is also possible to arrange the centerpieces on a silver platter
covered with meat jelly and served with accompaniments in small separate bowls
or container.
39
3. They should be visually attractive.
4. They should complement whatever foods may follow without duplicating.
Canapés are tiny open-faced sandwiches consist of tiny portions of food presented on
bases of bread, toast or pastry easily handled and eaten
Canapés Consists of Three Parts:
1. Base – holds the spread and garnish. Crackers and toasts are firmer and give
a pleasing texture and crispness to the canapé.

Many have wondered where the word “salad” came from. Salad originated from the
Latin word “sal” which means salt. Way back from the days of Caesar, Romans ate greens
sprinkled with salt. Salt was their only dressing then. Hence, from the “sal” came a salad. Salad
is a term used for a dish made of plants or greens, alone or in combination with other food,
plus a dressing. Salad dressing is usually an emulsion. It contains acid, usually vinegar or lemon
juice, fat, seasonings, and sometimes other ingredients. An emulsion is a mixture of two
immiscible liquids, one being suspended in the other.
Classification of Salad:
• As appetizer – ideally, an appetizer salad is light.
• As an accessory to the main dish- served as an accessory to the main dish or
entrée
• As desserts
