Be sure to wash the eggs before use, as even the seemingly clean shell may contain harmful bacteria. It is best to use food detergents and a brush.
It is important to sift the flour to saturate it with oxygen. This helps the baking to be airy and rise well during baking.
Butter can be melted in the microwave or using a water bath. Here’s how to melt butter using each method:
In the Microwave:
Cut the butter into small pieces and place them in a microwave-safe container.
To prevent splattering, cover the container with a paper towel.
Microwave the butter at the lowest power setting or in defrost mode.
Start with short intervals, like 5 seconds, and check if the butter has melted.
If needed, continue microwaving in short bursts until the desired consistency is reached.
Using a Water Bath:
Fill a larger pot with water and bring it to a boil on the stove.
Place a smaller heatproof bowl or container on top of the pot, ensuring it sits securely without touching the water.
Add the sliced butter to the smaller container.
As the water boils, the heat will gently melt the butter.
Stir the butter occasionally to help it melt evenly.
Once all the butter has melted, remove the container from the heat.
These methods ensure that the butter is melted smoothly and can be easily incorporated into your recipes.
