OSMOSIS is the movement of water or other solvent from a region of low solute concentration.
SMOKING involves exposing fish or meat to smoke from burning wood.
There are two ways of smoking:
1. COLD SMOKING is usually done at 20 1o 37 degrees Celsius Cold-smoked products retain
about 90% of their moisture so they have to be refrigerated.
2. HOT SMOKING is done at temperatures up to 63 to 80 degrees Celslus.
adds flavor while cooking the product.
DANGER ZONE- range of temperature wherein food-borne bacteria can grow to unsafe levels.

LESSON 2: Food Safety and Sanitation
TOPIC 1: Food Spoilage
FOOD SPOILGE is any change in food which renders it unfit for eating.
FOOD - especially high protein food is easy to contaminate.
ACIDITY- highly acidic food prohibits the growth of bacteria while weakly acidic (4.6 to 7.0)
TIME- Highly-perishable foods such as meat, poultry, fish, and dairy. (more than 4hrs-risk of spoilage)
TEMPERTAURE- Microorganisms can grow to unsafe levels at a temperature of 4.4 to 60-degree celsius.
OXYGEN- sustains respiratory activities among several microorganisms.
MOISTURE- The higher the moisture content of food the more it is prone to microbial contamination
WATER- The growth of microorganisms is significantly attributed to the availability of water
TOPIC 2: HACCP
Republic Act. 10611- ensure the safety of all food processing and product packaging activities
Hazard Analyses at Critical Control Points (HACCP)- refers to a food safety management system which
identifies, evaluates and controls hazards
Food Safety Hazards is any biological, chemical, or physical agent in food with the potential to cause
adverse effects on health.
Examples:
Biological: bacteria, viruses, parasites, molds
Chemical: pesticides, processing chemicals, drug residue, allergens
Physical: bones, pits, glass, metal, hair

LESSON 3: Food Manufacturing Practices
An effective food processing worker - possesses knowledge and skills in food processing techniques.
Occupational safety can be ensured by eliminating hazards, controlling risks, and by being mindful.
Personal Protective Equipment
Proper Handling of Cutting Tools
Fire Safety
Use the right Class of fire extinguisher for every type of fire.
Class A - ordinary combustibles such as wood and paper
Class B - combustible liquids and gases such as alcohol, LPG, grease
Class C - electrical fire
Class D - combustible metals such as aluminum
Chemical Waste Management- Chemical waste is any solid, liquid, gaseous matter that when
improperly managed or disposed of may pose harmful effects on the environment.
Ex.:

TOPIC 3: Organic Food Processing
Organic food processing is different from Kosher and Halal as it is not guided by religion
1. NO RTIFICIAL FLAVORS
2. NO ARTIFICIAL COLORS
3. NO ARTIFICIAL IRRADIATION
4. NO ARTIFICIAL PRESERVATIVES (BHA, BHT, SODIUM BENZOATE)
TOPIC 1: Sorting, Grading, and Selecting- Sorting and grading are not mandatory.
TOPIC 4: Storing
STORING- helps preserve the condition of raw materials
STORING MEAT- Carcass meats should be stored at 1 to 3* C.
STORING FISH- should be packed in ice and stored at -1 to 1*C
STORING EGG- store eggs in the refrigerator to maintain its freshness.
STORING FRUITS AND VEGETABLES- Don’t store fruits and vegetables together as fruit produce
ethylene gas which cause food spoilage.
