Quizzes vary in difficulty and length, so you can start with fundamentals and move up to more detailed questions as you improve.
Baking facts and context
Baking is more chemistry than most cooking: small changes in ratios, temperature, or mixing can shift gluten development, gas retention, and moisture balance.
A classic example is leavening—baking powder releases gas in stages, while yeast ferments sugars over time, which changes both rise and flavor.
