The word "gelation" in example sentences

This temperature is called the gelation range, because the granules become individual gels, or water-containing meshworks of long molecules. ❋ Harold McGee (2004)

When a starchy cereal is cooked, water penetrates the granule and separates the chains from each other, thus swelling and softening the granule in the process called gelation center. ❋ Harold McGee (2004)

They've also shown that their cooking, in Adria's case often labeled "molecular gastronomy," can illustrate scientific feats such as spherification, gelation and oxidation. ❋ The Huffington Post News Team (2010)

Food scientists have found that the optimal conditions for pectin gelation are a pH between 2.8 and 3.5—about the acidity of orange juice, and 0.5% acid by weight—a pectin concentration of 0.5 to 1.0%, and a sugar concentration of 60 to 65%. ❋ Harold McGee (2004)

This granule softening, or gelation, takes place in a temperature range that depends on the seed and starch, but is in the region of 140–160°F/60–70°C. ❋ Harold McGee (2004)

Salt slightly lowers the gelation temperature of starch, while sugars increase it. ❋ Harold McGee (2004)

Rice noodles are made by soaking high-amylose rice in water, grinding it into a paste, cooking the paste so that much but not all of the starch is gelated, kneading the paste into a dough and extruding it to form noodles, steaming the noodles to finish the gelation process, cooling and holding for 12 hours or more, and drying with hot air or by frying them in oil. ❋ Harold McGee (2004)

It competes with the flour starch for water, and raises the starch gelation temperature nearly to the boiling point: so it adds hardness and crispness. ❋ Harold McGee (2004)

Leuenberger, B.H. Investigation of viscosity and gelation properties of different mammalian and fish gelatins. ❋ Harold McGee (2004)

Root and tuber starches contain a fraction of the lipids and proteins that are associated with cereal starches, which makes them more readily gelated— lipids delay gelation by stabilizing granule structure—and gives them less pronounced flavors. ❋ Harold McGee (2004)

As the sauce heats up and the temperature reaches the gelation range, the granules absorb water and swell, and the sauce consistency begins to thicken center. ❋ Harold McGee (2004)

Cooling Reorganizes Starch Molecules and Firms Granules Once the cooking is finished and the seeds cool down below the gelation temperature, the starch molecules begin to re-form some clusters with pockets of water in between, and the soft, gelated starch granules begin to firm up again. ❋ Harold McGee (2004)

Leftover rice is often hard due to the retrogradation of the starch, which is cured by heating it up to the gelation temperature again. ❋ Harold McGee (2004)

Thickening: The Granules Leak Starch Depending on how concentrated the starch granules are to begin with, the starch-water mixture may noticeably thicken at various points during their swelling and gelation. ❋ Harold McGee (2004)

I was about to fuck him [in the ass] when I put [Vaseline] on my penis and [experienced] a gelation. ❋ Joshua Gay (2010)
