Tips for Baking Breads and Rolls

  • Over-ripe bananas can be peeled and frozen in a plastic container until it’s time to bake bread or cake.
  • When baking bread, a small dish of water in the oven will help keep the crust from getting too hard or brown.
  • Use shortening, not margarine or oil, to grease pans, as margarine and oil obsorb more easily into the dough or batter (especially bread).
  • When baking bread, you get a finer texture if you use milk. Water makes the bread coarse.
  • The freshness of eggs can be tested by placing them in a large bowl of cold water, if they float, do not use them.
