I love baking for the science and chemistry too! And it's really fun when you can start tweaking recipes and really understand what you are doing!

It's just 3 ingredients: salt, water and flour and yet you can make breads that taste, feel and look so totally different. So much fun.Daniellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14693890273484741328noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8289004993187545521.post-42541341613314839332012-10-06T13:24:34.007-07:002012-10-06T13:24:34.007-07:00Thank you sooo much for these tips!
