This lesson we were to get into groups of 4. Within these groups we were to bake 4 different muffins, by using 5 different methods. I was assigned to, "Quick Mix," Laura had, "Beating," Mizuki had, "Creaming" and Cindy had, "Melt and Mix." I think this was a good way in knowing which method would be the most effective and would achieve the best outcome. The Quick Mix, was literally quick. I was finished within 10 minutes and everything was in the oven and i was off to washing up. Within 20 minutes, mine were the first finished and they looked really good. Once everyone else's muffins were finished, we all took 3 of everyone's muffins to taste and contrast he differences between them, whether it was positive feedback or negative feedback. Personally, I think the Quick Mix tasted the best. I'm not just saying that because I made them, but i think that my muffins had the right consistency and the perfect texture and chocolateness. The creamy and beating methods, made the muffins very nice and fluffy, which was nice, but it tasted too try in my mouth and i'm not a big fan of dry muffins. In addition, some of the other muffins had too much flour, and consequently, the muffins tasted dry again and you could taste the flour within each muffin. I also like with the Quick Mix, that it was really fast and that it could be prepared and finished within 30 minutes max. I learnt how to work on my own, seeming it was individual efforts and i felt quite confident within myself and i think my independence in the kitchen, is definitely improving. (:
