This is a guide for those who wants to venture into baking for the first time. Every baker must begin somewhere. If you are just starting to bake, it would be better if you will follow the recipe verbatim and not improvise. Here are tips you should now before going into a recipe.
1. Read the recipe thoroughly so that way you will have an idea of what ingredients and tools to use.
2. Pull out all the ingredients and tools that you are going to use so that you will not miss any ingredient. And also check the expiry date of the ingredients that you will use. Use fresh ingredients.
3. Bring cold ingredients to room temperature and store them on a counter several hours prior to baking.
4. Grease baking pan or put parchment paper on it. This will save you also from burnt, sticky or broken confections. Cleaning will be a breeze too.
5. Preheat the oven before you put anything to it. It would be better if you have an oven thermometer for the exact temperature that a recipe calls for.
6. Use different measuring cups for liquid and dry ingredients.
7. Sift dry ingredients to get rid of any lumps and clumps.
8. Crack eggs in a separate bowl to avoid it from tainting with rotten egg.
9. Combine ingredients according to the recipe.
10. Before inserting the pan into the oven, set the timer first.
Once you follow all these it will be easier to make desserts. Happy Baking! :)
