Here are some tips for those who just want to pursue baking:
1. Choosing wheat flour
Flour is the main ingredient in making cakes. Although it looks the same, but the flour is divided into 3 types, namely high protein flour which is suitable for making bread or noodles, medium protein flour which can be used to make various cakes such as cake or pancakes and cake, then finally there is low protein flour which is usually often used for make cookies or biscuits.
2. Choosing eggs
For making cakes, eggs that are most appropriate to use are room temperature. Do not use eggs that come from the refrigerator. If the cake recipe requires a separate shaking between the white and the yolk, you should note that the container to be used to whisk the egg whites is clean, there is no residual oil or water and no egg yolk at all. If this is done, your egg white is guaranteed to rise and stiff completely.
3. Distinguish between whisking and stirring
It sounds like the two things are the same, but usually the ingredients that are beaten are eggs and you can use either a mixer or a whisk balloon. If you use a mixer, start with a low speed and then increase it gradually. Meanwhile, if you are instructed in the recipe to stir the mixture thoroughly, then you can use a spatula or large spoon.
4. Use Baking Paper Seven for the baking sheet
