In der Lebensmittelproduktion werden in zunehmendem Masse biotechnologisch her- gestellte Produkte verwendet. In diesem Zusammenhang sind insbesondere die mikro- biellen Enzyme bzw. Enzympraparate zu nennen. Die derzeit bekannten Kultiven rungsverfahren fur Mikroorganismen, die dank den Erfahrungen und Erkenntnisse, aus der allgemeinen und technischen Mikrobiologie, der molekularen Genetiki der Verfahrenstechnik sowie des Anlagenbaues u. a. Disziplinen zu hoher Reife gelangt sind, haben die grosstechnische Herstellung von Enzympraparaten und ihre viel- seitige Verwendung volkswirtschaftlich bedeutsam und oekonomisch vertretbar ge- macht. Der Einsatz von Enzymen ermoeglicht es, herkoemmliche lebensmitteltechnologische Verfahren zu rationalisieren, die Qualitat zahlreicher Produkte zu verbessern, das Sortiment zu erweitern oder aber neue Nahrungsquellen zu erschliessen. Auch in der Landwirtschaft, im medizinischen Bereich der Therapie und Diagnostik, in ver- schiedenen Sektoren der Leichtindustrie sowie im biochemisch-analytischen Labo- ratorium werden Enzyme mit Erfolg herangezogen. Das Gebiet der Enzymgewin- nung und -verwendung schliesst demzufolge eine ganze Reihe Fach- bzw. Teildiszi- plinen ein, wie die Mikrobiologie, die Chemie und Biochemie, die Physik und physi- kalische Chemie, die Biophysik, die Molekularbiologie, die allgemeine und chemische Verfahrenstechnik, das Bioingenieurwesen, die Lebensmittelchemie und -technologie, die Ernahrungswissenschaft, die Medizin, die Pharmazie u. a. m. Die Vielzahl der eng miteinander verflochtenen Disziplinen kann als Ursache dafur geIten, dass es trotz einer umfangreichen Spezialliteratur auf den Einzelgebieten noch kein geschlossenes deutschsprachiges Buch gibt, in dem die verschiedenen Teilaspekte der industriellen Herstellung und Verwendung von Enzympraparaten unter einer einheitlichen Konzeption zusammengefasst sind. Mit dieser Monographie soll diese Lucke geschlossen werden.

Swindled - From Poison Sweets to Counterfeit Coffee - The Dark History of the Food Cheats (Paperback): Bee Wilson Swindled - From Poison Sweets to Counterfeit Coffee - The Dark History of the Food Cheats (Paperback)

Bad food has a history. "Swindled" tells it. Through a fascinating mixture of cultural and scientific history, food politics, and culinary detective work, Bee Wilson uncovers the many ways swindlers have cheapened, falsified, and even poisoned our food throughout history. In the hands of people and corporations who have prized profits above the health of consumers, food and drink have been tampered with in often horrifying ways--padded, diluted, contaminated, substituted, mislabeled, misnamed, or otherwise faked. "Swindled" gives a panoramic view of this history, from the leaded wine of the ancient Romans to today's food frauds--such as fake organics and the scandal of Chinese babies being fed bogus milk powder.

Wilson pays special attention to nineteenth- and twentieth-century America and England and their roles in developing both industrial-scale food adulteration and the scientific ability to combat it. As "Swindled" reveals, modern science has both helped and hindered food fraudsters--increasing the sophistication of scams but also the means to detect them. The big breakthrough came in Victorian England when a scientist first put food under the microscope and found that much of what was sold as "genuine coffee" was anything but--and that you couldn't buy pure mustard in all of London.

Arguing that industrialization, laissez-faire politics, and globalization have all hurt the quality of food, but also that food swindlers have always been helped by consumer ignorance, "Swindled" ultimately calls for both governments and individuals to be more vigilant. In fact, Wilson suggests, one of our best protections is simply to reeducate ourselves about the joys of food and cooking.

Figs - A Global History (Hardcover): David Sutton Figs - A Global History (Hardcover)
David Sutton
R464 Discovery Miles 4 640 Ships in 12 - 19 working days

Figs, fresh and dried, have become the fruit of celebrations and festivities throughout the Western world, and have been typically associated with Christmastime since the nineteenth century. In Figs: A Global History, David Sutton examines the festive and celebratory importance of figs in many countries by placing this luscious and festive fruit in its historical context. Beginning with an account of the strange biology of the fig - which is botanically not a fruit at all, but rather a cluster of ingrowing flowers - Sutton moves on to consider the Arabian origins of figs, including the possibility that the earliest fig seeds were transported from Yemen to Mesopotamia in the dung of donkeys. Proposing that the 'forbidden fruit' eaten by Adam and Eve was in fact a fig rather than an apple, this book explores the history of the fruit in fascinating detail, from the Crusaders to the wonderful fig festivals of the modern world. Including numerous recipes both sweet and savoury, and countless facts, myths and stories about the fig, such as the bizarre tale of the American fig-wasp, Figs is a fascinating account of this unique and delicious food.

From mangosteen fruit discovered in a colonial Indonesian marketplace to caviar served on the high seas in a cruise-liner’s luxurious dining saloon, The Food Adventurers narrates the history of eating on the most coveted of tourist journeys: the around-the-world adventure. The book looks at what tourists ate on these adventures, as well as what they avoided, and what kinds of meals they described in diaries, photographs and postcards. Daniel E. Bender shows how circumglobal travel shaped popular fascination with world cuisines, and leads readers on a culinary tour from Tahitian roast pig in the 1840s, to the dining saloon of the luxury Cunard steamer Franconia in the 1920s, to InterContinental and Hilton hotel restaurants in the 1960s and ’70s.

AS READ ON BBC RADIO 4 BOOK OF THE WEEK. The fascinating story of how we have gone out to eat, from the ancient Romans in Pompeii to the luxurious Michelin-starred restaurants of today. Tracing its earliest incarnations in the city of Pompeii, where Sitwell is stunned by the sophistication of the dining scene, this is a romp through history as we meet the characters and discover the events that shape the way we eat today. Sitwell, restaurant critic for the Daily Telegraph and famous for his acerbic criticisms on the hit BBC show MasterChef, tackles this enormous subject with his typical wit and precision. He spies influences from an ancient traveller of the Muslim world, revels in the unintended consequences for nascent fine dining of the French Revolution, reveals in full hideous glory the post-Second World War dining scene in the UK and fathoms the birth of sensitive gastronomy in the US counterculture of the 1960s. This is a story of the ingenuity of the human race as individuals endeavour to do that most fundamental of things: to feed people. It is a story of art, politics, revolution, desperate need and decadent pleasure. Sitwell, a familiar face in the UK and a figure known for the controversy he attracts, provides anyone who loves to dine out, or who loves history, or who simply loves a good read with an accessible and humorous history. The Restaurant is jam-packed with extraordinary facts; a book to read eagerly from start to finish or to spend glorious moments dipping in to. It may be William Sitwell's History of Eating Out, but it's also the definitive story of one of the cornerstones of our culture.
