A problem familiar to many housewives: the cake is not removed from the baking sheet, the bottom is burnt, there are dark seals on the dishes that cannot be cleaned up. To avoid these troubles, it is enough to properly grease the pan before baking. If you don’t like butter, use alternative methods.
Do I need to lubricate
Lubricate the form or not - depends on the material from which it is made. It is known that silicone devices for baking cupcakes need oil treatment only once - before the first use. In the future, the dough is perfectly separated from the walls and bottom without additional lubrication.
Glass and metal molds need to be lubricated every time, including non-stick ones. If there is no oil, use alternative methods, such as special baking paper.
What kind of oil to lubricate the form
It is better to use odorless vegetable oil - refined. The aroma of sunflower or olives can ruin the taste of the dough.
The most popular oil is sunflower, some housewives experiment with sesame, linseed.
To get a golden crust of pies, use butter. Pre-melt or soften it. Butter also gives aroma and a pleasant taste.
An inexpensive alternative to butter is margarine. It has no taste or smell, but also copes well with the protection of the dough, although some housewives still encounter burning.
For distribution, use a culinary silicone brush or lubricate the mold with your hands, wearing protective gloves. Remember to cover the walls if baking in the oven rises.
Other ways to protect baking
Parchment paper is an oiled litter that will allow you to easily separate the dough from the bottom and walls. The advantage of parchment is that it keeps its shape relatively clean. You do not have to soak and scrub the burned areas, as well as wash dishes several times in an effort to get rid of oiliness.
Paper helps not only protect the dishes, but also prevents excess fat from baking into the pastry pies during baking.
Advice from Miss Purity Magazine
Not every parchment is oiled; look for information on the packaging!
To prevent torment with washing the mold, line it with ordinary food foil. This material, unlike baking paper, has the property of sticking to the dough, so additional lubrication with oil is required.
The modern alternative is Teflon sheet. It works like a mold made of similar material: just lay it on a baking sheet and boldly place the dough.
Sometimes oil is not enough. In this case, the housewives use flour: sprinkle with it an oiled sheet, and the dough will stick to it, and not to the bottom. This technique helps a lot when baking pizza, which has a rather thin and brittle dough.
Tip
Do not be afraid to pour flour, it will not affect the consistency of the finished dough.
Semolina and small bread crumbs are also used for sprinkling. Another trick for chocolate cake: sprinkle the oiled bottom with cocoa powder and fine sugar. So you get a delicious and sweet bottom crust.
Do not forget about the baking time and temperature indicated in the recipe of a dish.
Simple tricks can easily remove pizza or other pastries from a baking sheet and enjoy a delicious dish.
