    The document summarizes the effects of heat and different cooking solutions on the color and texture of various foods. Cooking foods in water causes them to become softer and change color as chlorophyll breaks down. Cooking in an acidic solution like citric acid preserves more color but softens the texture slightly. Cooking in an alkaline solution like baking soda retains brighter green colors while softening textures moderately. Pigments like chlorophyll, anthocyanins, and carotenoids are responsible for food colors, and their appearance changes depending on whether conditions are acidic, alkaline, or neutral when exposed to heat.

    Chlorophylls are pigments that give green foods their beautiful color. When exposed to
    heat and acidic conditions, chlorophyll becomes a compound known as pheophytin, which gives
    food a dull olive brown color. Alternately, when chlorophyll is exposed to heat and alkaline
    conditions (not pictured), it becomes a different compound, known as chlorophyllin, which is
    water soluble and gives food a bright green color.
    Anthocyanins are a family of pigments that provide red, purple, blue and white foods with
    their color. They are water soluble and have beneficial antioxidant properties. Under neutral
    conditions, anthocyanins are usually a beautiful purple color. When theyre exposed to acidic
    conditions, they usually become more red or pink as flavylium ions form and absorb and reflect
    different wavelengths of light. When theyre exposed to alkaline (basic) conditions, they usually
    become more blue or green as quinone-type anhydro bases form.
    Carotenoids are more soluble in fat than in water, and so their colors don't fade much in
    response to heat. Carotenoids also have less-intense color under acidic conditions.
