Baking 👩🏼🍳
Hobby of mine
Baking is a method of preparing food that uses dry heat, typically in an
oven, but it can also be done in hot ashes, or on hot stones. Bread is
the most commonly baked item, but many other types of food can also be
baked.[1] Heat is gradually transferred from the surface of cakes,
cookies, and pieces of bread to their center, typically conducted at
elevated temperatures surpassing 300 °F (148 °C). Dry heat cooking
imparts a distinctive richness to foods through the processes of
caramelization and surface browning. As heat travels through, it
transforms batters and doughs into baked goods and more with a firm dry
crust and a softer center.[2] Baking can be combined with grilling to
produce a hybrid barbecue variant by using both methods simultaneously,
or one after the other. Baking is related to barbecuing because the
concept of the masonry oven is similar to that of a smoke pit.
