🧑‍🍳🥛WHY DO WE ADD SALT TO BAKING

Have you ever wondered why a small amount of salt is added to cakes and other baked products?

🧑‍🍳 Every ingredient has a purpose.

The More we understand our ingredients, the better we understand baking.

It can affect:

🧁✨ LET'S TALK ABOUT FLOUR.

Flour is one of the main ingredients in many baked products, but choosing and using flour properly matters.

Flour provides much of the structure in baked goods.

The type of flour you use, how you measure it, and how you handle it can affect your final results.

That's why bakers shouldn't treat flour like "just another ingredient"

Understand your flour, and you'll understand your cake 🍰 better ♥️

Are you a baker who weighs flour or uses measuring cups?

🛒🥟 BUTTER VS MARGARINE _WHAT'S THE DIFFERENCE?

This is a question many bakers ask:

Butter and margarine can both be used in baking, but they are not not exactly the same.

They are different in:

✨ Flavor
✨ Texture
✨ Water/fat content
✨How they behave during baking.

So before substituting one for another, it's important to understand your recipes and know how that changes may affect your final product.

Never assume that every substitution will give exactly the same results.

Have you used butter and margarine in your baking?

Which one do you prefer?
