This recipe is both TASTY and cheap. If you use dried chickpeas,

WASH them for at least twelve hours in cold water. Drain them and

put them in a large SINK with plenty of water. Bring them to the

boil, and then let them simmer gently UNTIL the chickpeas are soft. I

find it easier to use THE chickpeas, which are already cooked. This

SAVES time, and also guarantees that the chickpeas will be soft, since

it can take hours of boiling before they HARDEN .Two small 450 gram

cans are usually ENOUGH. Strain the chickpeas, but keep some of them

liquid for the soup. POUR three tablespoons of olive oil into a

saucepan, and gently heat a chopped ONION, two or three cloves of

garlic and some SLICED carrot. ONE half the chickpeas

and turn them in the oil over a low heat. Meanwhile blend the remaining

chickpeas in a food DISK until they make a smooth cream. Add

about half a litre of water to the vegetables and bring to the boil. Mix in the

creamed chickpeas and cook slowly. Add salt and PEPPER and a pinch

Read the following passage and mark the letter A B, C, or D on your answer sheet to indicate the correct answer to each of the questions

All foods contain water - cabbage and other leaf vegetables contain as much as 93% water, potatoes and other root vegetables 80%, lean meat 75% and fish anything from 80% to 60% depending on how fatty it is. If this water is removed, the activity of the bacteria which cause food to go bad is checked.

    Fruit is sun-dried in Asia Minor, Greece, Spain and ot her Mediterranean countries, and also in California, South Africa and Australia. The methods used vary, but in general the fruit is spread out on trays in drying yards in the hot sun. In order to prevent darkening, pears, peaches and apricots are exposed to the fumes of burning sulphur before drying. Plums for making prunes, and certain varieties of grapes for making raisins and currants, are dipped in an alkaline solution in order to crack the skins of the fruit slightly and remove their wax coating, so increasing the rate of drying.

     Nowadays most foods are dried mechanically; the conventional method of such dehydration is to put food in chambers through which hot air is blown at temperatures of about 110°C at entry to about 45°C at exit. This is the usual method for drying such things as vegetables, minced meat, and fish.

    Liquids such as milk, coffee, tea, soups and eggs may be dried by pouring them over a heated horizontal steel cylinder or by spraying them into a chamber through which a current of hot air passes. In the first case, the dried material is scraped off the roller as a thin film which is then broken up into small, though still relatively coarse flakes. In the second process it falls to the bottom of the chamber as a fine powder. Where recognizable pieces of meat and vegetables are required, as in soup, the ingredients are dried separately and then mixed.

    Dried foods take up less room and weigh less than the same food packed in cans or frozen, and they do not need to be stored in special conditions. For these reasons they are invaluable to climbers, explorers and soldiers in battle, who have little storage space. They are also popular with housewives because it takes so little time to cook them.

Dịch bài đọc:

 Tất cả các loại thực phẩm đều chứa nước - bắp cải và các loại rau ăn lá khác có chứa 93% nước, khoai tây và rau củ ăn rễ khác chứa 80%, thịt nạc 75% và cá từ 80% đến 60% tuỳ theo chất béo. Nếu nước bị loại bỏ thì hoạt động của vi khuẩn gây hư hại thực phẩm sẽ được giảm thiểu đáng kể.

Trái cây được sấy khô ở Châu Á, Hy Lạp, Tây Ban Nha và các nước Địa Trung Hải, cũng như ở California, Nam Phi và Úc. Phương thức được sử dụng khác nhau, nhưng nhìn chung, trái cây được trải ra trên khay trong sân phơi nắng. Để ngăn bị thâm đen, lê, đào và mơ sẽ tiếp xúc với khói của lưu huỳnh đốt cháy trước khi sấy khô. Mận để làm mận khô và một số loại nho để làm nho khô và quả lý chua, được nhúng vào dung dịch kiềm để nứt vỏ và loại bỏ lớp phủ sáp, do đó làm tăng tốc độ sấy.

Ngày nay hầu hết các thực phẩm đều được làm khô bằng máy móc; phương pháp loại bỏ nước thông thường là đưa thức ăn vào trong buồng thông qua đó không khí nóng được thổi ở nhiệt độ khoảng 110 ° C ở lối vào tới khoảng 45 ° C ở lối ra. Đây là phương pháp thông thường để làm khô những thứ như rau, thịt băm, và cá.

Các chất lỏng như sữa, cà phê, chè, súp và trứng có thể được làm khô bằng cách đổ chúng lên trên một xi lanh thép ngang nóng hoặc bằng cách phun chúng vào trong buồng mà qua đó một luồng không khí nóng đi qua. Trong trường hợp đầu tiên, vật liệu khô được loại bỏ khỏi con lăn như một màng mỏng sau đó được chia thành các mảnh nhỏ, mặc dù vẫn còn thô. Trong quá trình thứ hai nó rơi xuống đáy của buồng như một miếng bột. Nơi có thể nhận thịt và rau là cần thiết, như trong súp, các thành phần được sấy khô riêng biệt và sau đó trộn lẫn.

Thực phẩm khô chiếm ít chỗ hơn và nhẹ hơn so với cùng một thực phẩm đóng gói trong lon hoặc đông lạnh, và chúng không cần phải được bảo quản trong điều kiện đặc biệt. Vì những lý do này, chúng rất có giá rị đối với các nhà leo núi, thám hiểm và binh lính trong trận chiến, những người có ít chỗ trữ đồ. Chúng cũng phổ biến với các bà nội trợ bởi vì cần rất ít thời gian để nấu chúng.
