1. Do not overmix and do not overbake.
2. Carefully read the recipe before proceeding.
Use the specified ingredients, and pre-measure them.
3. Always use metal measuring cups for dry
ingredients and a glass measuring cup for liquid ingredients.
4. Take your time to properly preheat the
oven, and practice safety.
5. Measure flour according to the recipe.
6. Use an oven thermometer, readily available
in grocery stores. Ovens can vary by 50 degrees.
7. Properly store ingredients and use the
highest quality and freshest ones possible.
8. Use metal nonstick baking pans, not thin
disposable aluminum ones. Glass pyrex pans are preferable for
pie baking.
9. For cake and loaf recipes that require
unmolding, place the pan on a wire cake rack and let it stand
for 10 minutes. Then unmold.
10. Before baking, always wash your hands
and carefully wash any fruits and vegetables used in the recipe.
