We all know that baking a delicious cake or bread is what we usually say, but what kitchen utensils do you need for baking? Many friends know that there is an oven, but what else is there besides an oven? Listen to Bian Xiao. Come along. What kitchen utensils do you need for baking? The first part is the necessary tools for baking. Oven is the main force of baking and an indispensable tool. Choosing a favorite oven is the first step in baking delicious western pastry. Microwave ovens can't replace ovens. Their heating principles are completely different. There is no microwave oven with barbecue function. Measuring spoons and kitchen scales are absolutely indispensable tools for baking. West Point is different from Chinese food. It pays attention to quantity and the proportion of ingredients must be accurate. Baking tray, baking net and heat preservation handle Most bread, biscuits and cakes need to be baked on the baking tray. It is better to have two baking trays, which is more convenient for daily use (such as biscuits, not one baking tray). If you have two baking pans, you can prepare the second baking pan when the first baking pan is baking. Grilled nets can be used not only to roast chicken wings and kebabs, but also as a cooling rack for bread and cakes. Heat-insulating gloves (or heat-insulating handles) can prevent you from getting burnt when holding the baking tray/baking net. These three tools are usually equipped when buying an oven. Manual eggbeater and electric egg beater: Whipping butter, eggs or whipped cream requires an eggbeater. When some wet materials are mixed together, an eggbeater is needed. Electric egg beater is more convenient and labor-saving, and it is difficult to beat whole eggs, so you must use electric egg beater. But electric egg beater is not suitable for all occasions. For example, when sending a small amount of butter, or when it is not necessary to send it, just stir the eggs, sugar and oil, and it will be more convenient and faster to use a manual eggbeater. Therefore, both kinds of eggbeaters need to be equipped. Rubber scraper, plastic scraper (I) is a small and useful tool, which can be used in many occasions. When kneading dough, the dough stuck to the chopping board can be shoveled off with it. It can also help us move the dough to the baking tray. Rubber scraper (bottom) is a flat soft scraper, which is suitable for mixing batter. It is the most powerful tool when making Qifeng cake and mixing egg white paste with egg yolk paste. And while stirring, it can be tightly attached to the bowl wall to scrape off the cake paste attached to the bowl wall. Stainless steel pot, glass bowls should be prepared with at least two stainless steel pot or large glass bowls for beating eggs, and some small bowls for holding various raw materials, such as chopping boards and rolling pins. However, it needs to be added that it is more recommended to use a non-wooden chopping board to make pasta. Such as metal and plastic chopping boards. Compared with wooden chopping boards, it is not easy to stick and breed bacteria. Pad the baking tray with tin foil and oiled paper to prevent sticking. Sometimes greasing the baking tray can also prevent sticking, but using padding paper can avoid the trouble of cleaning the baking tray. Oil paper is cheaper than tin foil. But tin foil can wrap food during barbecue to prevent water loss. In the baking process, covering the surface of food with a layer of tin foil after coloring can also prevent over-coloring. Flour sieve is used to screen flour or other powdery raw materials. Sieving flour can not only remove small flour particles from flour, but also make flour more bulky and beneficial to mixing. If there are cocoa powder, baking powder, baking soda and other powders. In raw materials, it is helpful to mix with flour and sieve. If you don't make a cake, it's not really baking. There must be at least an 8-inch or 6-inch round cake mold. It will be easier to demould if you buy a movable bottom die. If you want to make Qifeng cake, don't buy non-stick cake molds. What kitchenware is needed for baking Part II Selection of baking tools Measuring cups are the same as measuring spoons, and measuring cups are also tools for measuring and quantifying raw materials. The reason why I don't list it as a necessary tool is because in my blog, basically all recipes don't use "cups" as a unit. The piping mouth and piping bag can be used for piping. When making cookies and puffs, you can also use them to squeeze out colorful batter. Different nozzles can extrude different patterns, and you can buy a single nozzle or a whole set of nozzles as needed. A tool for making decorative cakes on a turntable. Putting the cake on the turntable can easily smooth the whipped cream and decorate it. When making a table cake, smooth the whipped cream on the cake with a cake scraper. Cupcakes of various styles are used to make muffin cakes, and other cupcakes can also be made. There are many sizes and colors to choose from. You can buy a toast mold according to your hobbies. If you want to make toast, it is an indispensable tool. It is recommended to buy 450 grams of toast molds and make them at home. Circular die A set of different die sizes can cut circular patches. In addition to this round shape, there are chrysanthemum-shaped knife dies. Tower molds and pies are necessary tools for making pies and tower snacks. Friends who often come to my blog should know that there is a classification in the blog, which is "West Point of Pie and Tower". To make this kind of western pastry, towers and pies are necessary. Pies and trays come in many sizes, shades and laces. You can buy brushes as needed. In order to color many snacks and bread beautifully, it is necessary to brush a layer of liquid on the surface before baking. This is when the brush comes in handy. Various knives: coarse serrated knife is used to cut toast, fine serrated knife is used to cut cake, ordinary medium knife can be used to divide dough, small spatula is used to coat stuffing and jam, fruit knife is used to treat all kinds of fresh fruits as baking raw materials ... In short, choose different knives according to different needs. Of course, you can travel around the world with a knife without so much attention. Pudding molds and cupcake molds are used to make various puddings and cupcakes. This small mold has various styles, and you can choose to buy a bread machine to make bread at home according to your own hobbies. Kneading dough is a manual job. So many students choose toasters. Most of the bread baked directly by the bread machine is not very delicious, so generally everyone ignores its function of baking bread and only regards it as a tool for kneading dough. However, the shortcomings of the toaster are also obvious. Because the power is low and the kneading efficiency is low, it takes a long time to knead the dough well. Moreover, the heat generated in the process of kneading dough cannot be dissipated, and kneading dough for a long time will lead to excessive dough temperature. If you knead the dough by hand, you can personally feel the changing process of the dough, and it is more fun to make bread by hand. What kitchen utensils do you need for baking? I suggest that friends who want to learn baking should buy things bit by bit.
