When baking food in the oven, we usually use several baking tools-tin foil, oil paper, tarpaulin and mold. Today we mainly talk about the usage of tin foil and oil paper.

Simply divided into two categories: tin foil for seafood, vegetables and meat, and oil paper for biscuits and cakes. Let's talk about how to use it in detail.

Tin foil:

Tin foil is widely used, whether it is all kinds of meat, seafood or even vegetables, it can be used to help bake. Simply put, as long as it doesn't touch water or oil, it can be baked with tin foil, which has good ductility, can be folded and shaped at will, can wrap food, can be spread on a baking tray or even a baking bowl, and can be covered on food.

Wrapping method: this method is suitable for baking large pieces of food, such as a chicken, a large piece of beef, a fish and so on. The whole food to be baked is wrapped in tin foil and baked in the oven, which can not only ensure the original flavor of the food, but also avoid uneven heating.

Tiling method: this method is suitable for baking flaky or small pieces of food, such as sliced meat, ham, Flammulina velutipes, potatoes, peppers and so on. In this way, we can bake a lot at a time, and the soup will not be too much, and the baked taste is great.

Covering method: This usage of tin foil is mainly to prevent the food surface from being too deeply colored, especially when baking toast in mountainous areas, it is easy to burn or bake too hard. You can cover the toast with a layer of tin foil to avoid over-coloring.

Oil paper:

Oil paper is mainly used for baking cakes, such as biscuits, cakes, moon cakes, bread and so on.

Direct baking: cookies can be baked on oiled paper after being molded by a mold, or they can be directly squeezed into a baking tray. Mooncakes are also molded with molds and baked directly on oiled paper.

Roll up after baking: The key step in making cake rolls is "rolling", and the cake embryo needs to be rolled up after baking. This can only be replaced by oiled paper and tin foil.

Oil absorption: Another function of oil paper is oil absorption. No matter biscuits or bread, even fried food can be put on oil paper to absorb excess oil.

Conclusion:

In many cases, tin foil can be used instead of oil paper, such as baking cookies and moon cakes, but only cake rolls can't be replaced by tin foil. On the contrary, oiled paper is mainly suitable for baking snacks, but not for baking seafood and meat. In addition, we should also emphasize the usage of tin foil. When we get a piece of tin foil, we can see that the two sides are different, one is shiny and the other is matte. We should touch food with a dull side. If we touch food with a smooth side, it is easy to cause food to stick to tin foil, and the smooth side absorbs heat more easily. Have you learned?
