What is 3-2-1 dough?
Pie dough
3 lbs pastry flour
2 pounds all purpose shortening
1 lb ice cold water
Describe the process for making 3-2-1 dough.
Rub together pastry flour with all purpose shortening to the proper degree. Flaky dough - fat is the size of peas. Mealy dough - resembles cornmeal. Add water and mix very gently until water is absorbed. Don't overmix.
What is flaky dough used for?
Top crusts
What is mealy dough used for?
Bottom crusts
Which pie dough has visible chunks of fat?
Flaky
Which pie dough resembles cornmeal?
Mealy
Name 3 purposes for sugar in baking
creates tenderness
crust color
retains moisture
food for yeast
creaming agent with fat
foaming agent with eggs
Name 3 purposes of eggs in baking
provide structure
emulsifying of fats and liquids
shortening action
moisture
leavening when beaten
color, browning of crust
color, from yolk
nutritional value
Name 3 purposes of shortening in baking
tenderize
adds moisture and richness
increases keeping quality
leavening through flakiness
Name 3 purposes of salt in baking
Flavor enhancer
strengthens gluten
structure in yeast breads
inhibits yeast growth
What causes the dough to be stiff in a pie?
not enough shortening
not enough liquid
flour too strong
What causes dough to be tough in a pie?
Overmixing in either stage
not enough shortening
flour too strong
too much rolling
too much scrap dough used
too much water
What causes pies crusts to be crumbly?
Not enough water
too much shortening
improper mixing in either stage
flour too weak
What causes pie crust to not be flaky?
Not enough shortening
shortening blended in too much
overmixing in either stage
too much rolling
dough or ingredients too warm
What causes soggy or raw bottom crust in pies?
Oven temp too low
not enough bottom heat
filling hot when put in shell
not baked long enough
use of wrong dough
not enough starch in fruit fillings
What causes shrinkage in pie dough?
dough overworked
not enough shortening
flour too strong
too much water
dough stretched when put in pans
dough not rested
What makes a cake tender?
sugar
fats (including butter, shortening, cocoa butter)
chemical leaveners
What makes a cake tough?
flour
eggs (whites and yolks)
What is a sour dough?
An overfermented sponge made with wild yeasts. Fermented for a long time.
Why is a sour dough used?
Acidity is created in the dough during the long fermentation. This acidity affects not only the flavor of the bread but also its texture. Moister crumb and better keeping qualities. Used for flavor and leavening if the sponge is healthy.
What are 6 benefits of using mixes and frozen doughs? There are 9
Quality
Uniformity
Labor savings
sanitation
relies on semi-skilled labor
limited floor space
equipment
invisible ingredient loss
inventory record keeping
What are the strengths of flour in order?
Cake
Pastry
All purpose
Bread
High Gluten
Clear
What is clear flour used for?
Rye breads and other darker breads such as pumpernickel
How is cream pie made?
Heat milk, sugar and salt to a simmer
Temper in cornstarch, quart of milk and eggs
Mix until smooth
All to boil and thicken
Add butter and flavors off heat and mix until smooth
pour hot mixture into prebaked pie shells
cool until set
What is the cooked juice method?
Boil drained juice from fruit with part of the sugar
Mix together waxy maize and juice or water
Then add to the boiled juice and sugar mixture to thicken
Add the rest of the sugar and flavors to the above mixture and stir until dissolved
Pour thickened juice over drained fruit and mix gently
Why is waxy maize used?
It freezes well
What is the difference between primex shortening and sweetex shortening?
Primex is all purpose shortening and Sweetex is emulsified shortening.
Primex has a tough waxy texture and small particles of the fat tend to hold their shape in a dough or batter. Used in piecrusts, biscuits, cookies, quick breads, pound cakes.
Sweetex is a soft shortening that spreads easily throughout the batter and quickly coats the particles of sugar and flour
Used in icings because it can hold more sugar and liquid without curdling
What is the difference between chocolate liquor and semi-sweet chocolate?
Chocolate liquor is the fancy name for bitter unsweetened baking chocolate. No sugar.
Semi-sweet chocolate contains sugar
What is the correct temperature for the application of fondant? Why?
100 degrees
If it is too hot it loses its shine and becomes gritty
What are the factors needed for yeast to grow?
Warmth
Moisture
Oxygen
Food
At what temperature does yeast die?
140 degrees
