Bread is served in various forms with any meal of the day. It is eaten as a snack, and used as an ingredient in other culinary preparations, such as sandwiches, and fried items coated in bread crumbs to prevent sticking. It forms the bland main component of bread pudding, as well as of stuffing designed to fill cavities or retain juices that otherwise might drip out. Bread has a social and emotional significance beyond its importance as nourishment. It plays essential roles in religious rituals and secular culture. Its prominence in daily life is reflected in language, where it appears in proverbs, colloquial expressions ("He stole the bread from my mouth"), in prayer ("Give us this day our daily bread") and in the etymology of words, such as "companion" (from Latin comes "with" + panis "bread"). 1.2 OBJECTIVE The Objective of this unit is to provide: 1.

  • Coconut Cake, Crunchy Texas Toasted Pecan Cake, and Rich Fruitcake
    GD01e01.qxp 8/13/2008 3:33 PM Page 13 CAKES GD01e01.qxp 8/13/2008 3:33 PM Page 15 Cakes are the ultimate Southern dessert. The elegant cre- ations are especially in evidence at Thanksgiving and Christmas when tables groan beneath platters of delicate Coconut Cake, crunchy Texas Toasted Pecan Cake, and rich Fruitcake. Cakes are important to other celebrations such as Mardi Gras when the colorful Kings’ Cake plays an essential role in the festivities. The yeasty, ring-shaped dessert is deco- rated with sugar crystals tinted with brilliant carnival colors: purple, green, and gold. Traditionally, a bean or pecan half is tucked inside, and the finder is named king of the next party. Cakes appear frequently throughout Southern history. George Washington’s mother, Mary Ball Washington, was among our first cake-makers. She served fresh-baked ginger- bread, accompanied by a glass of Madeira, to General Lafayette when he visited her at Fredericksburg. Showy Lord and Lady Baltimore Cakes are thought to have been named for the third Lord Baltimore and his Lady, who arrived in 1661 from England to govern the land which later became Maryland. Writer Owen Wister became so enamored with the taste of Lady Baltimore Cake that he named his novel Lady Baltimore in 1906. The moist, fruit-and-nut-filled Lane Cake, named for Emma Rylander Lane of Clayton, Alabama, became a sensation in 1898. Mrs. Lane published the recipe in her cookbook, Some Good Things to Eat. It has been called the “Southern Belle” of cakes. Southerners are prone to associate cake making with love and friendly concern.

  • Preparing Baked Food Exhibits for the Fair
    PREPARING BAKED FOODS EXHIBITS FOR THE FAIR ‚ Read the Fair Book. It has a lot of basic information about classes, requirements, rules, etc. For answers to other questions, contact your project leader or call the Extension Office. ‚ Select several recipes to try. Make the recipe several times so you know how the product turns out. Like all new skills, practice is necessary to learn and to improve and get consistent results. You will then know if you (or your family) like it and if it is something that you can use to build your skills in food preparation. ‚ Choose your foods exhibit entry based on what you want to learn as part of the 4-H project. Do not choose an item for the judge or for what you think the judge will like. Judges are chosen for the ability to be fair and objective and not to use personal likes and dislikes in judging. Food products are judged according to standards for texture, shape, crumb, crust, etc. ‚ Use time management skills in planning your foods exhibits. Bake items ahead of time and freeze them. After baking bread, rolls, cookies, etc., remove them from pans and cool to room temperature. Place in plastic bags or wrap with freezer wrap paper. Remove excessive air. To thaw, leave in original wrapper at room temperature. This will help preserve the moisture in the products. Allow time for food to completely thaw. Small items like cookies, biscuits, muffins, etc., take less than 1 hour. Large and heavier items like cakes and bread can take up to 3 hours.

The presence of butter makes the cake heavy and therefore it needs chemical leaveners for a light porous texture.
