N. Ismail, . and Seow C. C., . (1982) Traditional Malaysian intermediate moisture foods: preparation properties and improvement. [Proceedings Paper]
Abstract
Traditionally processed foods contribute significantly to Malaysian dietary and cultural variety. Traditional food technologies are however not well-developed enough to ensure the long-term survival of such foods. Modern scientific principles and analysis could be usefully applied to transform traditional food processing and preservation technologies into appropriate technologies suitable to particular situations. Unfortunately the scope for doing this is limited by the dearth of information and lack of scientific documentation regarding traditional food technologies. This paper discusses the preparation properties and scope for improvement of a family of traditionally preserved Malaysian foods which may be classified as intermediate moisture foods IMF.
