I plan on using many layers of social media, blogs, youtube videos, online magazines, and print media to help educate myself on how to create pastries and baked goods. I am going to aim to bake at least every other week, with hopes of creating a new product each week. Due to the limitations such as cooking costs and baking space I do not want to plan on being able to make something on a weekly basis. I will therefore spend my time gaining knowledge on the specific "how-to" process of pastry making in between baking sessions.
One of my favorite ways to cultivate knowledge on pastries and baked goods is through Pinterest. On my account, I will be pinning various picture ideas of tasty treats as well as links to certain recipes that I think might be interesting to try. I do not want to worry about coming up with my own recipes for this project, but rather trying to follow existing ones and concern myself with executing delicious baked goods.
I will keep this blog updated with my new adventures and hope I can drop some baking knowledge on my followers. For those readers who are in class, please look forward to sampling my efforts in class after some time in the kitchen! I am starting this adventure knowing that I may not make the best pastries or baked goods ever made. I am starting this knowing that I will come out a more learned and happy person inside and outside of the kitchen at the culmination . So-here's to fun times, new experiences, and happy baking!
