Know your ingredients Understanding baking It is often said that cooking is an art relying on the creativity of the chef while baking bread is much more of a science. This means that the process of combining flour, water and yeast results in a reaction that produces bread.
Liquids/milk Liquids such as milk or a combination of powdered milk and water, can be used when making bread. Milk will improve flavour, provide a velvety texture and soften the crust, while water alone will produce a crispier crust. Some liquids call for juice (orange, apple, etc) to be added as a flavour enhancer.
• There are 2 spoons provided to cover all combinations of quantities in the recipes. Tablespoon tbsp, teaspoon and (marked with line) and a tsp. 1tsp = 5 millilitres 1 tbsp = 3 tsp = 15 millilitres Hint measure dry ingredients first with the tablespoon, then wet (oil) last.
