Poultry and Fabrication

When I first began teaching, the poultry and fabrication unit was intimidating, but now it is one of my favorite units to teach.

So, I wanted to create this Google Slides Presentation Poultry and Fabrication.

Here is the note-taker that goes with this unit.

I hope to add personal pictures to it this week.

Kneading Techniques “Working the Dough” Kneading is one of the most known terms in baking, but do you really understand its importance. Could you recognize if you have a well kneaded product? Do you know the different kneading techniques? Do you know how to test if you have kneaded well enough?

Why Knead Kneading develops a gluten network (net) As flour is hydrated gluten strengthens and adds to the structure of the dough. Gluten helps to bind the dough together and helps it keep from falling apart during baking Gluten creates a net in the bread product that captures carbon dioxide produced by yeast. ...
