Tips for Beginning Bakers

Yes, I know. What you’re about to read is very basic, but fundamental to successful baking. Over the next several months, I’m going to be sharing with you my baking knowledge, my learning experiences, tips for beginning (and seasoned) bakers, and all the how’s and why’s of baking because my goal is to help you become successful in the kitchen. If you have a recipe fail, (which I have plenty of times) I want you to be able to diagnose the problem, try again, and have it turn our beautifully. I’ve tried recipes for the first time and noticed a problem with the recipe while making it. Because of my baking knowledge, I’ve been able to first, notice the problem, and second, correct it so whatever it was I was baking didn’t end up in a disaster. These are the kinds of things I want you to be able to do too.
