What you must know for holiday baking: butter basics, tips and trivia Baking With Butter Professional bakers recommend recom-mend using real butter when baking. Its fresh, wholesome flavor is a "must" in high-quality baked goods. There are a variety of reasons that professionals prefer real butter: baked goods made with butter but-ter have better keeping qualities and stay fresh longer; butter contributes to the tender texture of baked goods;' butter enhances the flavor of other ingredients, making them more pronounced; butter is an all-natural product. Butter Baking Glossary Butter Grades Butter is graded by U.S. standards on the basis of flavor, body, color and salt characteristics. Grades also' establish price, Whipped Butter This variety of butter, available both salted and unsalted, has air incorporated in-corporated into it to make it more spreadable. It should not be substituted sub-stituted for regular butter in recipes. Measurements will not be equal since whipped butter contains more air and moisture. Softened Butter To soften, remove butter from the refrigerator and leave at room temperature for an hour or two depending upon the temperature of the room. Cut each stick into eight pieces to speed up softening. Or, place one stick (in non-foil wrapper) on a microwave-safe plate. Heat on low power, check Kids can learn to bake and share in one delicious lesson "The best holiday gifts aren't necessarily those that cost a lot of money or take hours of shopping to find," says Jeanne Beckman, Ph.D., a Chicago-area family and child psychologist. "The best gifts are often those that are homemade like home-baked cake or cookies. Something created with care." Families who bake together for the holidays spend quality time a good time to teach children about sharing and giving. Baking something from scratch, wrapping it and choosing the recipient is one way to teach giving from the heart. Choosing What To Bake Rena- Coyle, author of My First Baking Book, couldn't agree more with the homemade concept. She suggests choosing a recipe that keeps well and is sturdy stur-dy enough for packing, transporting transport-ing and mailing (if necessary). It should not require refrigeration. Mini Marble Pound Cakes, created by Coyle for the American Dairy Association, fit this description perfectly. Kids will be proud to share these homemade" cakes with teachers, grandparents, grand-parents, aunts and uncles. The recipe can be fun for all ages. Older kids can help measure and mix the batter. Kids of every age will love swirling the two batters together to create a marbled effect. Using disposable aluminum foil pans means the cakes can be baked, wrapped and given in the same pan. Moist and buttery, these cakes actually benefit from being r -v 4 " ' CHRISTINE ANNE BOHN AND DAVID RICHARD VICK ing every 30 seconds. Softened butter should be malleable and easy to cut but should not begin to melt. Creamed Butter To cream butter, beat until soft and smooth. Large amounts of air are incorporated this way. Air contributes con-tributes to the texture of baked goods. Butter creams easiest when at room temperature. If butter is cold, cut it into pieces before creaming. Melted Butter STOP! If you have accidentally melted butter, but-ter, use it for another purpose. Melting changes the structure, making it unsuitable for most baked goods. Salted or Unsalted Butter But-ter Either salted or unsalted butter can be used for baking according ac-cording to personal preference, although many cooks prefer to use unsalted. Sweet Cream Butter- The term indicates that butter was made from sweet cream (an opposed op-posed to sour cream). It does not refer to whether butter is salted or unsalted. Basic Butter Measurements 2 cups 4 sticks 1 pound (32 tablespoons) 1 cup 2 sticks 12 pound.

As an added bonus, they can be made up to a month ahead and frozen. They'll taste as fresh and delicious deli-cious as the day they were baked. Butter is a must for pound cakes. It not only contributes to the pure, simple flavor and texture tex-ture of a pound cake, but it also enhances the flavors of other ingredients. in-gredients. Wrapping It Up Everyone in the family can enjoy the wrapping, too. Make it simple or elaborate. Coyle suggests sug-gests first wrapping each cake with clear or colored foodsafe plastic wrap, then dressing up the package with one of these ideas. Add a festive bow. Place a cake in a tissue-lined basket and tie with a holiday ribbon. rib-bon. Line a small paper tote bag with festive colored tissue paper and place a cake in the bag. Nestle one or two cakes in a decorative box or tin. Add a special touch with a fun ribbon tie-on such as a cookie cutter or tree ornament. It time permits, the "baker" might like to include a copy of the recipe to send along with the gift so that it can become part of the recipient's holiday tradition, too.

Butter Trivia In ancient Rome, butter was used as a hair dressing and also as a skin cream. The recorded history of butter but-ter dates back as far as 2,000 B.C.

Butter ranks third in the use of the nation's milk supply. (Fluid milk is number one followed by cheese.) In the 1930s, automated churns were developed to make the production of butter more efficient, ef-ficient, economical and consistent. consis-tent. Today, continuous churns can produce up to 15,000 pounds of butter an hour. An old superstition from the days of at-home butter churning claimed that it was unlucky to leave a house where butter was being churned without first touching the churn. 1 12 teaspoons baking powder 12 teaspoon salt 1 14 cups (2 1.2 sticks) butter, softened 2 cups sugar 5 eggs 1 tablespoon vanilla extract Preheat oven to 325F.
