Question 2

List and describe the ten steps in the baking process.

Accepted Answer

Fats melt -steam is released, fats disperse, coating starch and moistening the product
Gases form-air, carbon dioxide or steam
Gases are trapped-egg protein or gluten network traps gases Microorganisms are killed
Starches gelatinize-at 140ºF starch in flour absorbs up to 10 times its weight in moisture and expands
Proteins coagulate-at 160ºF gluten, dairy and egg proteins solidifyWater evaporates and gasses escape-heat turns water to steam, which leavens products
Sugars caramelize-above 320ºF sugars brown, adding flavor and color Carryover baking occurs-residual heat in pan and product continues baking process even after product is removed from oven
Staling begins-moisture loss and changes in structure of starch granules (starch retrogradation) occurs as products cool, dry out and age
