How to Choose an Oven for Bread Baking

Video Transcript

"What you can do is, make sure your oven is hot and at the desired temperature, before you put anything in it. I would recommend that you keep the oven a little hotter, maybe ten degrees hotter, than what you want because, once you open that oven, to put your ingredients in there, you loose a lot of heat. You want the oven to be a little bit hotter and then once you put your items inside your oven, you close it back up and then you bring the temperature back to the desired temperature. It's a mis-justice to put the items, inside the oven, whether it be a cookie, a muffin or what have you and not at the right temperature. For example, if you put your muffin in a cool oven, you won't have the crown on your muffin you'll have a flat top muffin, which is not very pretty. It may taste good but it won't be pretty. Now this bread is going to sit there for a good forty-five minutes, or so, to get to the right size, then we're going to put it inside the oven."
