  • BAKING, ACID and ALKALINE
    BAKING, ACID and ALKALINE Successful baking is largely dependent upon leavening, which is the process of aeration of (adding gas to) dough or batter, to increase its volume and lighten its texture. When dough or batter is mixed, the starch in the flour combines with the liquid to form a foam matrix of protein strands that sets with holes in between, formed by gas bubbles, which expand when heated, causing the dough or batter to "rise". Dough is a paste made from flour (ground from grains, pulses, seeds or nuts), mixed with water (or other liquid, such as milk). Other ingredients (such as oil, butter, margarine, egg), seasoning and flavourings may be added as well as a leavening (or "raising") agent, if required. Batter is a liquid mixture made with the same ingredients as dough, but whisked or beaten together to introduce air bubbles (battre is French for beat). Batters can also be made by soaking whole grains, then grinding them wet. Batter can be cooked on its own as a pancake, or as a coating on another food (in which case, beer is sometimes added as a source of gas bubbles). Doughs and batters can be griddled, shallow or deep fried, steamed and boiled as well as baked. Batter cooked at an extremely high temperature can be leavened solely by the steam produced from the moisture in the mixture, which rises as the gas expands, holding it until the the batter is set (such as Yorkshire pudding or tempura). Cake mixtures have a lighter texture than dough, with a foam of air bubbles drawn in by beating with a whisk, such as formed with egg protein in a sponge cake mix, or by "creaming" when beating in sugar and butter.

  • Life of Pikelet
    Mary Anne Boermans Sophie Coe Prize entry 2017 Life of Pikelet Food excites passion. It isn't limited to those that make food part of their professional lives, but almost everyone will, at times, have a passionate argument, or at the very least a heated discussion, about some aspect of food preference. Does the milk go in the cup before the tea or after? Loose-leaf or teabag? Pyramid teabag, circular or square? To hard-boil eggs, do you start them in hot water or cold? Is 'scone' pronounced 'skon' or 'scohne'? In a cream tea, which goes on the skon/scohne first, the jam or the cream? Equally divisive, although less publicly debated, is the crumpet/pikelet question. Arguments can range from the alleged existence of a north/south divide and/or either one or the other being a regional delicacy, to details relating to their shape, size and the thickness. This element of uncertainty, the lack of clear-cut division over precisely what is being disputed, is probably the reason the discussion is more low-key than those mentioned above. Nevertheless, it is an intriguing one, brought home to me recently in a conversation about crumpets and pikelets with my own family. My understanding of crumpets is that they are circular, 2-3cm thick, their surface covered with holes, pale and soft, and require toasting before being buttered and eaten. Pikelets are similar in appearance in that they too are covered in holes and require the same preparation, but are thinner, with a less defined shape, more oval and free-form than crumpets.
