The Science of Baking by Sonya Veligodskaya
When baking, eggs play a crucial role in determining the edibility of the cake
Applying chemical and physical principles in baking helps create new flavor combinations, textures, and structures in cakes
Having a basic knowledge of chemistry is vital in becoming a better baker
Room-temperature butter is responsible for the fluffiness of a sponge cake
Whisking butter and sugar together
Sugar crystals act as tiny shovels digging air pockets within the butter
If butter is cold, sugar crystals can't create air pockets, affecting the fluffiness of the cake

Placing cookies in the oven
