Study Notes

Traditional Food Processing

Smoking in traditional food processing aims to preserve food by preventing bacterial growth and adding flavor.
Drying in traditional food processing involves removing moisture to prevent microbial growth, preserving food.

Modern Food Processing

Preservation Methods

Pascalization (HPP) in modern food processing inactivates microorganisms, extending shelf life while maintaining nutritional value.
Modified atmosphere packaging in modern food processing controls gas composition to prevent spoilage, extending shelf life.
Freeze-drying in modern food processing removes water content, preventing microbial growth and preserving nutrients.
