Process documentation

I bake about once a week in my house.  I like trying new things so of usually search for a new recipe online. First you need  to look over the recipe to make sure you have the neccesssary ingredients. If you dont have everything you’ll have to make a quick run to the store. If you do have everything, great your ready to start baking. You’ll start off by preheating your oven to , most cookies and cakes are baked at 350 degrees.Then you’ll grease your pan and put it to the side, so thats its ready when the batter is prepared.  Most recipes have you mix the dry ingrdients with the dry and the wet ingrdients with the wet and then have you combine them together. But it’s importatnt to follow the reciepe your trying to make, because it may differ for a specific reason. Once you’ve mixed everything you’ll place it in the oven, half way through the designated cooking time you should turn the pan so it could bake more evenly. Once its done you’ll want to let it cool before trying to remove it from the pan otherwise it’ll fall apart. You’ll also wanty to let it cool for about an hour before you start decorating.

When baking there are a few important things to keep in mind. Baking is actually a bit more complicated then cooking. It’s more of a science, if you dont have the correct proportions of leavening agents such as baking soda or yeast the your cake or bread wont rise, it’ll just be flat and probably dense . Another difference is when your cooking you can taste as you go and if you have your food in the pan and you realize you forgot a seasoning you can just through it in the panand its no big deal. When your baking ane realize you forgot an ingredient you cant take out a half baked cake or cookie and add that ingredient to it. That being said its great to be creative when decorating but uts important not to deviate to far fropm a recipe because it may it turn it bad.
