Personal Essay On Baking Literacy

There I was, an average rainy, windy day, as average as any. Watching the kids baking championship with my family. “I hope Max wins”, I say to my sister Kinsley.

This was for many, the first time they had ever been allowed to do any baking by themselves. I remember quite vividly how independent I felt as I pulled my first half baked cake out of my purple and pink easy-bake oven. It was a proud moment for me, even though the food was inedible; I could not help but smile. I think the reason I felt so unconstrained at that instant was because at that age it was still considered dangerous to use an oven without an adult. This had been my first real taste of freedom. I know this is not the case for all women, but in that moment I could not wait to grow up and have my own family to feed. I do not contribute that urge to my easy-bake oven because it did not condition me to want that. I wanted that before I received my easy-bake oven for Christmas; the miniature oven just brought my feelings to life for the first time. I feel strongly that a woman can be a great homemaker as well as a professional in the

Ever since I was little, I enjoyed being in the kitchen with my mom, dad and other family members. As long as I can remember, I was always there, trying to help out in whatever I could and what my family members would let me. When I was eight, I baked my first batch of chocolate chip cookies and ever since then I developed a passion and dedication for baking that has helped to teach many

As I mentioned earlier, I saw family groups entering the fair. These family groups consisted of generational members. To see older adults with the young, showed me that educating, sharing beliefs, and traditions still run deep in family groups.

Ever since the Spring of 2004, I have been the source of a lot of headaches for my parents with my constant pleas to visit the Sparkleberry Country Fair. There is nothing like turning onto the dirt road entrance, rolling the windows down, and taking a deep breath of fresh Carolina air and Sunshine. The faint smell of boiled peanuts, cotton candy, and other mouth watering fair foods fill the air. Even now that I can drive myself, I can’t help but feel that childish sense of excitement and joy as I park the car, open the door, exposed to the culture and

Several weeks ago, my brother asked me if we could bake biscuits, and I eagerly agreed. At first, everything ran smoothly, the biscuit mixture was perfectly combined with not a lump in sight, the cheese grated to the smallest strands, the oven warmly heated and ready to go. However, when we got to greasing the pans my brother became useless. I watched him run around the kitchen as if the answer was hiding between boxes of cereal or behind the kitchen stove. How could he not know how to grease a pan? I was going to tell him to grow up and do it right, when I thought of a passage from the short essay Lost in the Kitchen by Dave Barry:

Bettie wants to cook an item of her choice at least two times a month with three or more verbal prompts this quarter. She had a success rate of 100% in February, 100% in March, and 50% in April. Bettie had slightly higher success rates than the previous quarter. Bettie was able to cook at least two or more times each month but her success rate slipped below 100% in April as she needed additional modeling prompts. During cooking with Bettie, she needed mostly verbal to gather ingredients, use the whisk or stir items in the pot, and prepare items for baking. Staff supported Bettie with setting oven and removing items out of the hot oven. During the quarter, Bettie chose to prepare cornbread, banana nut bread, chocolate chip cookies, Spanish

As a fundraiser for her trip to Europe last year and for every special occasion whether it was for a birthday or a wedding, she remembered baking cupcakes and turning on the oven light to watch the cupcake mix ooze to form its shape. As the cupcakes were forming, she clearly remembered it filling the air in her house with the smell of sweets, which is a signal that the cupcakes were nearly ready. To be sure that it was ready, she took a toothpick to test it to see if there were any signs that said otherwise. The next part which is her favorite is decorating the cupcakes with everything ranging from frosting, marshmallows, different types of cookie crumbs, and chocolate. From the moment that she experienced baking and decorating these cupcakes, she discovered the love that she has for Culinary Arts and here she is now at her dream school that is known for Culinary

Hope you are well. My name is Mitchell, I fell in love with cooking and baking when I was a small girl. My mother was an excellent cook, her food was exemptio0nal and everybody who visited our home used to give her very good remarks about the food. Our neighbors used to seek her services to bake for them cakes for different occasional. Her cookies were very good and my friends used to visit my home just to get a cookie from her. She taught most of the things I know about cooking and I believe I learned from the best. I thank her for introducing me to cooking and baking.

“Beep! Beep! Beep! Beeeeeeep!” my alarm clock was piercing my eardrums. I got up slowly, my alarm clock still going off. It seemed as if the loudness was just getting louder and louder. Finally, I stumbled out of bed, turning my alarm off. After I got dressed, I went downstairs to pack my mother’s amazing cookies for school. Her secret is adding the right measure of mixing because mixing develops gluten in the sugar, making the cookies a chewy consistency, adding the right measure of shape because round dough balls take longer to bake, resulting in softer, thicker cookies, besides adding the correct amount of spacing because cookies baked at low temperatures spread more during baking and need approximately 2 inches between them. It also depends on the temperature, and the quantity of time you bake them for because a low temperature and longer baking time yield crisper, thinner cookies; a higher heat and shorter baking time makes softer, thicker cookies. My mom taught me these rules of cooking when I was around five. What can I say, I guess I just have a way of cooking.

Cleaning the rims and wheels of your car are often the most difficult areas as they can be hard to reach and are the dirtiest.
