BAKING 101: LET'S LEARN WITH BE.CAKECITED! 🤎
Have you ever thought what is the most important thing in order to make a cake? You got it right! Yes, the answer is BAKING TOOLS!
Now, tell us what baking tools do you know? What baking tools that the bakers usually use? 🤔 Seems like you do not know the answer? It's okay, we can learn together 🥰 Do you want to learn from us? Come on, let's read about these magical tools and their uses down below 👇🏻👇🏻👇🏻
🧁 Heat-Resistant Spatula
From scraping down a mixing bowl to stirring jam, bendy spatulas are an absolute must for any kitchen. How else would you gently fold chocolate into whipped egg whites, or scrape every last bit of batter into a pan? They are arguably the most versatile and important tool in a professional bakeshop.
🧁 Pastry Brush
These handy brushes are the perfect tool for egg washing the top of a pie, brushing cream on dough, or gently painting glaze over the top of a fruit tart. The brush soaks up whatever liquid you’re working with, making it easy to brush it on top without making a mess.
🧁 Sifter
Although you can technically use a fine-mesh strainer to sift your dry ingredients, having the real deal makes life infinitely easier. It can be used for sifting cake flour, powdered sugar, and even for straining out raspberries from purées.
🧁 Adjustable Measuring Cups
Adjustable measuring cups are exactly what they sound like: measuring cups that can be pushed up or down to yield different measurements. They help reduce the amount of dishes you have to wash and save space in your kitchen. They’re perfect for measuring anything sticky like honey or maple syrup because they push out every single drop without a mess and also for semisolids like nut butters, yogurt, and sour cream.
🧁 Ice Cream Scoops
Not only great for scooping ice cream, but also for portioning out cookie dough. The spring-loaded scoops make it easy to scoop even-sized dough balls, ensuring that your cookies will be consistent.
🧁 Wooden Rolling Pin
A very important baking tool for rolling out and laminating doughs.
🧁 Digital Kitchen Thermometer
For anyone interested in candy-making or whipping up batches of homemade buttercream frosting, a digital kitchen thermometer will be your best friend. It can help you to get your Swiss and Italian buttercream frostings to the perfect temperature during the beginning stages of the process. You can also use it to check to see if your sourdough bread is perfectly baked.
🧁 Digital Kitchen Scale
Measuring ingredients by weight and not volume yields more accurate results and is a preferred method for most professional bakers. Coupled with well-developed recipes that are written in weighted amounts, it reduces the amount of dirty dishes exponentially and yields perfect results every time.
