In order to have a delicious toasted bread, in addition to the ingredients, the method of making, the baking temperature and time play a decisive role in the quality of the cake. However, for each type of cake, there will be a different time and temperature to make. So what is the appropriate baking temperature for bread?
1. Bread baking temperature
Bread is considered as a popular food when widely used around the world. The most common feature of bread contains a high content of starch, gluten, but quite a few micronutrients. However, not all breads are the same in terms of nutrition, such as whole wheat breads that will be high in fiber, or very rich in vitamin C, vitamin E and beta carotene. .
To get a delicious bread, in addition to choosing baking ingredients, an even more important factor is the temperature and baking time. It seems like every baking recipe involves preheating the oven to 177 degrees Celsius. But what makes the toasting temperature so special in the baking process. Scientifically speaking, what's going on at 177 degrees Celsius and is that really the right temperature for all baking?
Bake at 177 degrees Celsius seems to be a convention and is the default for nearly all. It's most likely the parameter that was guided from the original recipe to get the temperature in the oven to a moderate standard. Also can be thought of as a common guide for ovens without digital temperature displays and internal thermometers.
In most cases, baking recipes are divided into categories, i.e. slow or low baking for delicate delicate foods, moderate for cakes and cookies, or high for crispy bread.
2. Some reactions occur when baking
A lot of chemical reactions happen when you put cakes, cookies and bread in a hot oven to bake such as: chemical reactions, phase change from liquid to gas and other interesting things.
When baking at 177 degrees Celsius or at least at temperatures above 150 degrees Celsius. All these steps take place quickly and efficiently. The baking process changes are listed step-by-step, but there's really a lot of overlap:
At room temperature and up to 77 degrees Celsius or higher, the baking soda and baking powder begin to react, releases carbon dioxide gas, but some baking powder formulations require heat to activate, this is especially true for double-acting baking powder, which contains a slow-acting chemical that requires more energy to work. nine pies. Above 32 degrees Celsius, the fat melts and softens the pies but at this stage the fat also releases the trapped air and water, which contributes to the rise of the pies as the water evaporates and the gas escapes Approx. 57 degrees Celsius dead microorganisms. At this point in the bread, the yeast dies, preventing the bread dough from over fermenting and forming an overly acidic flavor. Heat also kills disease-causing microorganisms like salmonella, making your baked goods safer to eat. When the temperature rises above 60 degrees Celsius, eggs and gluten proteins begin to dry, harden and solidify, starch granules expand with water and gelatinize up to about 93 degrees Celsius. About 71 degrees Celsius or more, enzymes inactive because heat destroys their original structure. This step is essential as these enzymes will slowly digest and break down your baked goods if they are to work in the finished product. At higher temperatures, the gases formed evaporate, contributing to the crusts of bread and other baked goods.
Above 150 degrees Celsius, the caramelization of sugar and Maillard browning reaction occurs, contributing to the delicious golden brown color and flavor of baked goods. At 177 degrees Celsius is the solid temperature that makes all of this happen in rapid succession as the cupcake heats up, hence its widespread use.
3. Really good baking temperature
There are many people who have gone through a phase where they completely ignored the preheat instructions in their recipes and basically baked almost all of their baked goods at 177 degrees Celsius. think it doesn't matter because a hot oven will finish all the baking process
Although that's true and you can bake everything at 177 degrees Celsius, from bread to cake cookies, cakes, but sometimes 177 degrees Celsius is not the most suitable temperature for what you are baking.
Bread: A high toasting temperature, such as a toaster oven temperature greater than 218 degrees Celsius, is really important in toasting bread, as the higher temperature leads to a faster rise, better than before when the gluten in the bread and the crust has a chance to set. Puffs: Baked at 177 degrees Celsius, puffs will be lower when compared to baking at 204 degrees Celsius, because at this temperature steam is released quickly between the layers, allowing to expand and rise higher before the layers freeze and dry in situ. Muffins: Baking muffins at 177 degrees Celsius works well, but did you know if you start baking your muffins in an oven hotter even as high as 218 degrees Celsius you'll get a taller muffin. But baking the same recipe at 177 degrees Celsius results in less domed muffins that pop open and don't rise any more. Cookies: Whether you're wanting your cookies to have a slightly browned in the oven like chocolate chip cookies, or bake without the color like some breads, cookie-related factors will determine the temperature you want to bake at the cake.
4. Some tips to bake a good batch of bread
The first thing to pay special attention to when performing the baking process is to preheat the toaster oven to the specified temperature for at least 15 minutes before starting to put the cake in the oven. If the oven is not turned on in the school, but the cake is baked right away, it may lead to the condition that the outside of the cake is cooked but the inside of the cake is not fully cooked. Leaving the cake in the oven for longer can cause the outside of the cake to burn.
Next, need to adjust the baking tray so that the cake pan is always in the center of the oven. The purpose of this activity helps to ensure that the heat transfer to the cake is balanced, the cake will be cooked from the inside out.
The design of each oven has upper, lower and two fire modes. Therefore, when baking, it is recommended to use the two-fire mode to help the baking temperature of the oven spread more evenly, the cake will have more delicious quality. In the case of using a fire or a fire on top or bottom, the cake may dent, expand unevenly, or even burn in the parts of the cake close to the heat bar.
The temperature for baking bread and the temperature of the toaster oven are two of the important factors to create delicious bread. Therefore, when baking, you should pay attention to the finished product to be as perfect as possible.
