About Baking:



background

Baking is a method of preparing food that uses dry heat, typically in an oven, but can also be done in hot ashes, or on hot stones.

Not only is baking and pastry a great job, it's a surprisingly versatile industry with opportunity in many niches. And of course, restaurants and hotels need pastry cooks and chefs to design and make plated desserts, and bakers for breads and baked sweets.

Why do people like Baking?

Baking is a sacred thing. Why do we do it? Is it the satisfaction of creating something wonderful from a few ingredients? Is it because we like to get our hands dirty? Or perhaps it's because it takes us on a journey and reminds us of a loved one we cooked with, or even a different time or place.
