Traditional methods of food preservation - How to Preserve Food at home

By Ency 123
All food products, on exposure to air, undergo certain changes which unfit them for use as food. It was once thought that these changes were due to oxidation, but they are now known to be caused by minute living organisms present in the air, in the water, in the ground, and in the food itself. To preserve food two things are necessary; first, to either kill or render harmless those organisms already present; and second, to exclude others from entering. The first we usually accomplish by cooking, and the second by sealing.

How to test the purity of honey at home

By Ency 123
Honey producers should list all the ingredients the honey contains. If the honey is not pure natural, it should be written on the label, including the percentage of real honey, if any. However, there are many frauds, so here are 10 tricks that can help you determine if the honey is pure natural honey. Photos: Apiary101.com... 1.  Rub a little honey between the forefinger and thumb until it falls apart. Some honey may be absorbed into the skin, which is good since pure honey is good for the skin. Natural honey is not sticky. If what you rub is sticky, then it has sugar or artificial sweeteners in it. 2. Place a few drops of honey on a paper or paper towel. Pure honey will not get through the paper for a long time.. 3 Mix a little honey with egg yolk. If the honey is pure, when you whisk the egg yolk, it will seem like it's cooked. 4 Fill a glass with water and add 1 tablespoon of honey. Pure honey will coagulate and drop to the bottom. Fake honey will begin to melt. 5 Spread honey o...

Why do the leaves of the trees change color in autumn?

By Ency 123
As we know, in autumn the leaves of the trees turn red and yellow and later fall off.  But do we know why this is happening?  Basically, plants only grow when there is sunlight, which appears as white light, but is made up of rainbow colors. In summer, the leaves of most plants are green due to the high levels of sunlight. They have the dye chlorophyll, which reflects the green part of the sunlight, which is why the leaves appear green. The other parts of the sunlight are absorbed, ie "swallowed" by the plant and used to convert light into starch (photosynthesis). In addition to chlorophyll, there are other color pigments, namely carotenes (orange), anthocyanins (red), or xanthophylls (yellow). In summer, however, these are usually completely covered by the green chlorophyll. In autumn the solar radiation is weaker, the days become shorter, and the temperatures are lower. As a result, the rate of photosynthesis also reduces. The yellow, red, and orange components of the light...
