My baking journey to the world of breads : ETON Global Institute Culinary and Hospitality Management

Tweet

Cooking and baking breads, cakes and pastries give you personal achievement, appreciation on your self and from others who eat your own cooked food. It can also be tough, it can be stressful, but it's a beautiful, fulfilling passion that fuels creativity and experimentation. 

Baking is an entirely new world with simple but important techniques and methods.

The ETON expert Chefs held the Bread Making Workshop at the Eton Global Institute, Center for Culinary & Hospitality Management, Saturday, October 7, 2017

I enjoyed learning how to make and bake bread at ETON Global Institute Culinary and Hospitality Management. 

The expert chefs teach us what kinds of flour and other ingredients on what particular kind of bread to bake. Simple ingredients you need to produce a seemingly endless variety of products from breads are flour, sugar, eggs, milk, butter, and flavorings. 

The baking journey begins with the first step - know and mix the ingredients - dry and wet ingredients.

I enjoyed the mix, mash and roll dough…fun giving all the effort and strength of my arms and hands. Kneading develops the gluten (a protein) in the dough, which provides the bread's structure.

To knead, place dough on a clean counter lightly sprinkled with flour. Then sprinkle a bit more flour on the dough and your hands to prevent sticking.

Doing the fold, push, turn and repeat. Fold means flatten the dough and fold it towards you. Push, using the heels of your hands, push the dough away with a rolling motion. Turn, or rotate dough a quarter turn. 

Doing the fold, push, turn and repeat.

Keep kneading dough until it is smooth and springs back when lightly pressed with the fingers. Kneading takes 6 to 10 minutes, and use a little more flour if dough is still too sticky.

We really have fun doing it. Most enjoyable was when we got to taste the food that we prepared! Really yummy, warm and fresh breads from the ETON’s oven… the breads our group bake!

We baked Caramel Cinnamon Roll and Italian Focaccia.
