1, in the production of cake, the quality of flour directly affects the quality of products. Making cake flour should generally choose to use low gluten flour, because low gluten flour gluten-free, made of cake especially fluffy, volume expansion, the surface is flat. If a lack of low gluten flour, can be used in the gluten flour or high gluten flour with the right amount of corn starch preparation.
2, another main ingredient of the cake is egg, egg puff mainly depends on the endosperm protein in the egg white, and endosperm protein only when subjected to high speed whisking, to a large number of wrapped air, the formation of bubbles, so that the cake's volume increases the puffy, so in the churning of egg white, it is desirable to high speed and should not be used in the low-speed.
3, the production of cake embryo syrup, from 1000g sugar with 500g water, boiling, chilled into. Eggs and sugar whisking, it is appropriate to use high speed, this is the endosperm protein characteristics required.
4, before baking the cake, the oven must be preheated, otherwise the fluffiness and elasticity of the baked cake will be affected. The cake mixing utensils must be clean, especially not touching the grease, otherwise the cake will not be fluffy, which will affect the quality and taste.
5, the traditional way of making cake, often in the bottom of the mold wall oiling, so that the cake out of the side of the cake is often color and the bottom layer of color is darker, now available in the cake circle cake, just in the bottom of the circle pad on a piece of white paper instead of oiling, out of the cake on the side of the color and the bottom layer of the cake color is lighter, you can save costs, including savings on the epidermis and the bottom layer of the cake.
After the cake is baked and chilled, it is not until it is used that the cake ring is taken off and the paper at the bottom is removed to ensure that the cake is not dried out and the quality is affected.
6, the baking temperature of the cake depends on the amount of mixture in the cake, the more the mixture, the lower the temperature; conversely, the less the mixture, the temperature should be increased accordingly.
7, the cake baking time depends on the temperature and the cake contains more or less of the mixture, which kind of mixing method and so on. Generally speaking, the longer the time, the lower the temperature; conversely, the shorter the time, the higher the temperature. A large cake is cooler and takes longer; a small cake is warmer and takes less time.
8, the cake should be covered with cake board while it is still hot, so that the water contained in the cake will not evaporate too much, to maintain the humidity of the cake. In addition, when the cake is hot, the shape of the cake is not completely fixed, and you can rely on the weight of the cake itself to make the surface of the cake more flat.
9, the production of sponge cake selection of low-gluten flour, the production of grease cake is more often used in the gluten powder, this is because the structure of the grease cake itself than the sponge cake loose, the selection of gluten powder, so that the structure of the cake to be further strengthened. Thus, it becomes more compact and not loose.

BBQ Chicken Wings
Ingredients: chicken wings, soy sauce, green onion and ginger, sugar, cooking wine, pepper, salt, five-spice powder, BBQ sauce, honey
Practice:
1, first cleaned and drained chicken wings cut a few cuts in soy sauce, green onion and ginger, sugar, cooking wine, pepper, salt, five-spice powder, BBQ sauce, seasoning inside the mix well, covered with plastic wrap. Marinate in the refrigerator for 2 hours or more, turning halfway through.
2, preheat the oven at 220 degrees, chicken wings on the grill, below the baking tray with tin foil (easy to clean) to catch the dripping oil, or put the chicken wings rows in the tinfoil, bake for 15 minutes (during the period of a few times to turn over the face), brush with honey and BBQ sauce, sprinkle a little bit of cheese (cheese powder role to make the skin more crispy), and bake for another 5 - 10 minutes. Remove from oven. Serve.
Small water tip: The chicken meat is very flavorful and the skin is very crispy, similar to Orleans wings! But it's a shame that I put a little too much honey on it, and it's a little too sweet. So we should pay attention to the honey as long as a thin layer can be coated, do not repeatedly coated a lot on it.

Home made pizza
Ingredients:
Dry yeast 1 and 1/2 tsp, warm water 3/4 c. (about 150g), softened cream 30g. 150g), 30g of softened butter
A. 300g of medium gluten flour, 1 tbsp of sugar, 1/2 tsp of salt
Pizza Sauce Ingredients:
1/4 onion, 1 garlic, 10g of cream
A. 2 tbsp of tomato paste, 6 tbsp of water, 1/4 tsp of salt, 1/4 tsp of black pepper, 1/ 4 tsp of oregano, 1 tbsp of sugar. Cover and let rise in a warm place for 2 hours
Sprinkle some dry flour on the table, pour the dough over it, divide it into rounds as needed, and let rise in the center for 15 minutes
Shape the dough into a pie and spread it out on a baking sheet or a pizza pan, arranging it so it is thicker in a circle around the dough
Pierce holes in the crust with a fork so it doesn't bulge out during baking
Spread pizza sauce in the center. p>Spread the center with pizza sauce, leaving the edges uncoated
Preheat oven to 210C, spread with baking ingredients (e.g., seafood, meats, veggies, etc.) and bake on the lower shelf for 15 minutes, then remove from the oven and spread with shredded cheese and bake for 5 minutes more until the perimeter is golden brown.
Pizza sauce:
Peel and mince the onion and garlic
Heat the pan, add the cream powdered onion and minced garlic
Add the A ingredient and stir-fry and bring to a boil
Additional information:
Traditional pizza sauce has no sugar, but a little bit of it can slow down the acidity of the tomato paste, which is better suited to our tastes
This crust can be used to make 11-inch pizza, 8-inch pizza, or a large pizza, which can be used to make a large pizza, or a small pizza.
This crust makes one 11-inch pizza, two 8-inch pizzas, and five 5-inch pizzas. This is a thick pizza, and a thin pizza is only 2/3 of the size. In fact, the size and thickness can be adjusted by yourself, there is no certain standard.
If you can't finish baking at one time, you can bake in batches, and it doesn't matter if you leave the pizza on the table for a while (Claire's note: it's best to cover it with plastic wrap)
It's not necessary to be as particular about pizza as it is about making bread, and you can be more flexible about the materials and the way you do it, and you can even use the crust that hasn't fermented to make the pizza. (Claire's note: So pizza can be the most important thing for you to do when you're trying to make bread, and you can even do it with the sweet dough that's failed. The dough is also good for making pizza crust.
The proportions of the ingredients in the pizza sauce can be quite arbitrary, like I like the flavor of cream and oregano so I put in a lot more. My son was not used to the flavor of tomato, so I left it out and it was just as good; then I slowly increased the amount of tomato paste. Since we don't have tomato paste at home, I used ketchup instead and skipped the sugar. I switched to ketchup only when he could accept the taste of tomato. As long as it suits your taste, you don't have to limit yourself to recipes.
The pizza sauce can be frozen in a plastic container (for those who have more cream and less water, I just keep it refrigerated), and then scooped out a tablespoon of it for use the next time you want to make pizza
