French Pastry Basics (Beginner Level)

Additional Information

My studies in chemical engineering might seem unusual for baking. However, my studies have actually proven to be incredibly beneficial for my passion. Chemical engineering is about reactions and exact measurements, just like baking on a bigger scale! In the kitchen, I feel like a scientist conducting delicious experiments. Measuring ingredients precisely, understanding how temperature affects textures, and even analyzing the browning process – all these aspects become fascinating explorations fueled by my engineering knowledge. This scientific approach not only elevates my baking to a whole new level, but it also allows me to constantly learn and grow as a baker.
