...Maple syrup, a delicacy across much of the northern United States in late spring. Maple syrup does not simply come off of the store shelves, nor is it made in a large factory. In fact many steps take place before the syrup is at the table. Late Spring, the start of the syruping season, nights are cold and days warm perfect for the sap, sugar rich water, to start moving throughout the trees. The opportunity to collect sap varies every year because it relies on the temperature, specifically when the mercury falls below freezing at night and rises to about 50 degrees during the day. The reason for this is in the fall the tree stores all of its sap in its roots for winter. New warmth after a long winter signals the tree to send the sap backup to the branches, for the formation new leaves. The perfect conditions allow for the sap to move throughout the tree during the night and day allowing people to collect it. The first step, finding the right tree Sugar maples followed by silver maples are...

...transformation of M sap into maple syrup and sugar. This process, passed on from the Native Americans to the early settlers, is still quite popular today, and is responsible for one of the few wild foods that can be purchased commercially in most supermarkets. Most people associate syrup with the maple tree, and although much of today’s syrup does originate from the sugar maple, all species of maple can be tapped. Even better, many other trees from other genera can be tapped to extract sap, which ultimately can be turned into delicious syrup. In this post, I won’t be discussing the methods involved in tapping for sugar production. If you are unfamiliar with the process, there are a variety of great websites, videos, and...

...major problems of the over usage of high fructose corn syrup. Introduction Today, it is inevitable to face negative effects of high fructose corn syrup because high fructose corn syrup (HFCS) has replaced cane and beet sugar in processed foods and soft drinks over the past 25 years. When you read the food labels in your kitchen you’ll find that we now consume HFCS in all kinds of processed foods, not just desserts and drinks also in breads, cereals, ketchup and yogurt so you will easily realize that you associate with the devil by consuming devil’s candy. However, despite the alarming damages of HFCS there is a huge demand for HFCS by firms and governments. Profit concerns and governmental issues are the major reasons behind demand but also there are some problems related to consumers. In this proposal it is intended to investigate the problems behind the over usage of HFCS and offer solutions against that danger, select the criteria to evaluate the applicability and efficiency of the proposed solutions and finally introduce the research methodology constituted the basis of my further research. Problem Definition There are some problems caused by people, firms and governments lead us to over use HFCS. The followings are the most crucial problems behind this issue; I. Ignorance People don’t know the difference between corn syrup and high fructose corn syrup. They think they are same but they are not. Corn syrup is mainly glucose produced from corn starch. There is...

...Permaculture: An Old School, New Age Society What I knew: Prior to embarking on this research essay I had no familiarity with the term “permaculture”. Originally I was going to write on hydroponics but then I chose to go towards a much broader topic know as self-sufficient homesteading. I have always been one who took pride in repurposing what others deemed as “useless junk”. When I was younger I built a blacksmithing forge out of nothing more than a rusty brake drum, black iron pipe and an old blender fan. From that I pounded demented railroad spikes and horse shoes into beautiful works of art such as picture frames, coat racks, and knives. I have been hooked ever since finding ways to not only live, but thrive off the land by working in harmony with it. Tapping sugar maples to make my own syrup, hunting and trapping for food, clothing and income, and creating a hydroponic tower to produce my own fruits and vegetables. My goal has always been to live on my own terms and provide myself with all my needs through ingenuity and hard work instead of using currency. I had heard of self-sustainable living and that was what I was aiming for until I came upon the term “Permaculture” while surfing through some articles. It means living in a manner in which you coincide with nature and use it as a model to create sustainable cycles in which you can nourish yourself and the environment around you in a positive manner...

...Student self-study worksheet 06/01/2015 Lecturer….Mr Whitson Unit 609 Prepare and cook food by baking, roasting and grilling You are to research the following questions that relate to this unit: Q What does the word accompaniment mean? A. Something that you eat or drink with something else: A dry champagne makes the ideal accompaniment for/to this dish. List as many roasting methods as you can find A low-temperature oven, 95°C to 160°C (200°F to 325°F), is best when cooking with large cuts of meat, turkey and whole chickens. This is not technically roasting temperature, but it is called slow-roasting. The benefit of slow-roasting an item is less moisture loss and a more tender product. More of the collagen that makes meat tough is dissolved in slow cooking. At true roasting temperatures, 200°C (400°F) or more, the water inside the muscle is lost at a high rate Cooking at high temperatures is beneficial if the cut is tender enough—as in filet mignon or strip loin—to be finished cooking before the juices escape. A reason for high temperature roasting is to brown the outside of the food, similar to browning food in a pan before pot roasting or stewing it. Fast cooking gives more variety of flavour, because the outside is brown while the centre is much less done. The combination method uses high heat just at either the beginning or the end of the cooking process, with most of the cooking at a low temperature. This method produces the golden-brown texture...

...Global warming is the rise in the average temperature of Earth's atmosphere and oceans since the late 19th century and its projected continuation. Since the early 20th century, Earth's mean surface temperature has increased by about 0.8 °C (1.4 °F), with about two-thirds of the increase occurring since 1980. scientists are more than 90% certain that it is primarily caused by increasing concentrations of greenhouse gasses produced by human activities. A greenhouse gas (sometimes abbreviated GHG) is a gas in an atmosphere that absorbs and emits radiation within the thermal infrared range. This process is the fundamental cause of the greenhouse effect.The primary greenhouse gases in the Earth's atmosphere are water vapour, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and ozone. The causes of increasing greenhouse gases are: Burning fossil fuels, thus releasing into the atmosphere carbon that has been safely stored for millions of years by burning coal, oil and natural gas for transport and electricity. An enormous demand for electricity. The growing population of the earth all want cars, refrigerators, air-conditioning and a double garage. Most electricity is generated by burning coal. A constant and growing demand for red meat. Cattle belch out methane, a toxic greenhouse gas, much more dangerous than carbon dioxide. More and more forests and bushland, which absorb carbon dioxide from the air, are being cut down so more cattle can graze. A reduction in the planet's ability to remove...

Concept of restaurant Fine dine Word count (CONCEPT) 6300. CONCEPT OF FINE DINING IN GENEVA A fine dining restaurant is one that offers its patrons the finest food, quality service and atmosphere. It is also the most expensive restaurant and menu should offer unique items, the service should be beyond doubt impeccable and the atmosphere should be inviting. Today fine dining can be in any type of setting and provide feature a wide variety of cuisine. Standards you should always include in fine dining are fine china, glassware and flatware (absolutely no paper, plastic, or Styrofoam). While tablecloths are hard to escape in fine dining, the rest of the atmosphere is up to your creativity. We can take the traditional route, with silver candelabras and Rose centerpieces, or go for hip and trendy with a bold color scheme and modern furnishings. Music playing subtly in the background should reflect your theme, such as classical for a traditional fine dining restaurant or jazz tunes for something modern. Lighting should also be subtle, leaning toward dim but romantic. MACRO INDUSTRY ANALYSIS FOR FINE DINE RESTAURENT IN GENEVA USING PESTEL The restaurant concepts of fine dine in Geneva depend upon a number of industry-specific and general economic, political, legal and other factors, many of which...

...he placed an embargo on English shipments. That decision effectively cut off France’s access to the English ports that France depended on for the transshipment of cane sugar from the West Indies. Sugar stocks piled up on English docks while the people of France suffered for the lack of it. To meet the unsatisfied need created by his embargo and England’s counter-embargo, Napoleon decided to encourage production of sugar from sugarbeets. Experiments ten years earlier had established the viability of the beet root as a replacement for cane sugar. So convincing were the results that representatives of the cane industry offered to pay the modern equivalent of $120,000 to Karl Franz Achard, the scientist most responsible for carrying out the research in return for his disavowal of the possibilities of extracting sugar from sugarbeets. His rejection of the offer not only confirmed his strength of character but also established the foundation of an industry. By 1812, forty factories were in operation in France. These factories, miniscule by 21st century standards, handled nearly one hundred thousand tons of beets produced on some seventeen thousand acres, extracting from them more than three million pounds of sugar. From France, the industry spread to other countries, especially to Germany and Russia. In Germany, Achard established a school attended by students from all parts of Europe. When the students returned to their home countries, they carried with them technical information...

McDonald’s has grown to become one of the leading fast food chains with close to 300 restaurants nationwide. Mostly branches were strategically located at the malls and commercial buildings. 1.4 Website Address www.mcdonalds.com.ph 1.5 Background History of the Company The business began in 1940, with a restaurant opened by brothers Richard and Maurice McDonald at 1398 North E Street at West 14th Street in San Bernardino, California . Their introduction of the "Speedee Service System" in 1948 furthered the principles of the modern fast-food restaurant that the White Castle hamburger chain had already put into practice more than two decades earlier. The original mascot of McDonald's was a man with a chef's hat on top of a hamburger shaped head whose name was "Speedee". Speedee was eventually replaced with Ronald McDonald by 1967 when the company first filed a U.S. trademark on a clown shaped man having puffed out costume legs. McDonald's first filed for a U.S. trademark on the name "McDonald's" on May 4, 1961, with the description "Drive-In Restaurant Services", which continues to be renewed through the end of December 2009.
