Hi, Im pretty terrible at baking but I want to bake zuchinni bread. I can go on recipes.com but Im not sure if they would have a very simple recipe for beginners like me and also I want one that has been made over and over again by someone and is a family favorite. Any help you can give me would be greatly appreciated. Thank you

I am not much of a baker, but I bought a box strussel pack and prepared it like it said on the back. I guess it came out as good as it could be coming from a box, but is there something I can add (sugar, brown sugar?) to make it sweeter and how much of it do I put?

Anyone have a really good jerky recipe?

2006-08-28 18:37:01 · 4 answers · asked by PJ 1

I've never gotten one (personally, I'm scared that I'll turn it up to high or that batter and stuff will splatter all over the place), and sadly enough I don't even have a whisk (for beating things, being Asian, we use chopsticks, it works just as well most of the time). When I made cookies today (not the cut-out ones), although they came out fine, compared to how long it should take, these took twice as long because rather than using a mixer, I basically counted on folding everything to get it done.

Does anyone have an alternative to electric mixers? Seriously, I'm scared of them!

I'm also open to little tips that are irrelevant to the question (beginner at baking).

Okay... does anyone have any quick and easy recipes? Mine is Apple Crisp... here is the recipe (hope you like it ) :O)

Filling:
15 to 20 apples, in a variety of brands, peeled and sliced
1/2 cup cinnamon and sugar mixture
1/2 to 1 cup apple cider or orange juice

Topping:
2 cups bleached flour
2 cups sugar
2 sticks cold margarine

Preheat oven to 400 degrees F.

Layer sliced apples into an ungreased 13 by 9 by 2-inch pan. Sprinkle cinnamon and sugar mixture in between each layer. Use enough cinnamon and sugar to cover each layer. Once apples are to the top of the pan, cover with final layer of cinnamon and sugar and then pour either your apple cider or orange juice over the entire mixture.

Mix the 3 toppings ingredients together with a mixer until it is crumbly. Cover the apples with the topping. Bake for 45 minutes. Cool and serve.

I tried about 10 different recipes.
Several times they dissolved in the boiling water (too little flour?)
When I added more flour, they were hard & tasted really gummy & gross.

Why can't they be tender little morsels? What am I doing wrong?

It has hydrogenated oils in it....which isn't good for you!
I have a great recipe for Banana Cream pie that calls for it.
What's a good substitute?
Thanks!!

I know this is a silly question, but I hate it when I don't do it long enough and my yolk is runny...and if I leave it on too long the shells seem to crack! Why can't I master the most basic culinary task?!

I think it is a stick of butter wrapped in a chicken breast and breaded and baked. Is it hard to make? Is there something that I should make before it to help practice? If you have made it, do you have any other advice?

I am searching for a recipe to make a Chinese birthday/wedding cake. American style cakes are way too sweet and the frosting is a sickly sweet buttercream. Does anyone know where I can find a cake recipe and frosting recipe that is similar to the kinds they sell at chinese bakery. The cakes Im talking about are their standard birthday cakes. The inside is light and spongy. The frosting is similar to a whipped cream... also very light.. Usually the cakes are filled with fresh fruit and the tops are decorated with fresh fruit as well... PLEASE HELP!

I have a gas grill that after it gets heated up makes a loud kind of a squeal/whistle noise. Does anyone know what this is or how to fix it? It only started doing this recently and does it no matter how full the propane tank is. Thanks.

I tried a recipe I found online but the breading didn't stick to the peppers when I fried them. A coworker suggested pealing the peppers, but the ones from the store seem to have the skins on.
