Welcome to The Baker's Pantry!
In these lessons, I'll teach you everything you need to know about baking ingredients and their functions.
We'll chat about all the basic ingredients used in baking, of course, but we'll also have some fun getting into those specialty ingredients as well that can really take your baking to the next level!
We'll discuss what ingredients you should always have on hand, which brands I love to bake with, and most importantly, all the details you need to know to understand how to make your ingredients work for you.
So why do you need to understand your ingredients from the inside out?
Your product will only ever be as good as the ingredients you use to make it.
