    I’m new to baking. This year I set a goal to learn baking, more importantly vegan and preferably free of refined sugar. In three months, I have learned basics of “why” in vegan ingredients, replaced frustration with curiosity. Now I have come up with three of my own recipes once I learned how ingredients interact in baking. I’m loving my baking failures more than successes, because failures leave me curious to keep trying.
    Most of my failed recipes were from bakers with glorious websites and with good reviews that they responded to, they don’t respond to my comments or questions when the recipe fails despite following instructions.
    I like your humility. Thanks for being empathetic.

There’s no coincidences that big. All I can say is Thank You!
    Edit: ok, I just watched another of your “expert tip” videos and I have to tell you, these videos are flaring up my anxiety big time. I need you to title these types of videos “research tips”. There’s no answers past, “do your research”. I stumbled on this video while “researching” and the answer is to research! 🤦🏽‍♀️ You’re killing me girl! 🤣 I’m about to watch another video but had to come back and say that.

    Good video! I think a mindset shift is very important to getting on the path of developing good recipes and becoming a competent baker. It is very easy to get frustrated, but stepping back and looking at the "why" is so important!
    The other day, I was developing a recipe for Blueberry cake. After my second attempt, I finally realized that the pureed blueberries I added to the cake were adding some acidity and moisture, so I added a little more baking soda to help balance out the pH and I cut the milk amount down a touch. As a result, I got a better rise from my baking powder and soda and a less runny batter. Worked like a charm. If I didn't think about what to change or examine each ingredient for what it contributed for the cake, I wouldn't have arrived to that conclusion and end product!
    Thanks for sharing these very good tips!

    • @CuriousCatBakery
      @CuriousCatBakery  Рік тому +1

      YEEESSS! Omg that is exactly what I try to get people to understand all the time. It's not as simple as take one thing out, add another one in. You have to understand the chemical reaction that's happening when you bake so you can fix it properly. It's not always easy but it's the only way. Glad to hear the blueberry cake came out in the end! :)

This is the first time I come across an english-speaking channel so technical about baking, and this is so promising.
    I'm trying to learn from Bérénice Leconte (author of "Patisserie Vegan" and founder of VG Patisserie, first ever vegan baking shop in Paris) and so far so good.
    Can't wait to learn more tips for you, I just want to binge all of your videos !

    I’ve been vegan for about 13 years now and I’ve had a a couple dozen amazing vegan pastries across America, so I know they’re possible, but their techniques seem secretive because I haven’t been able to figure them out until I started getting frustrated and experimenting on my own. This video reminds me of the frustration, but also reminds me it’s not just my frustration, nor are the great vegan pastries out of reach.

    This is a great video!! Understanding the why is soo soo important I love that it was the first tip. One of my personal favourite substitutes for a light an fluffy cake/ cupcake is soda water! It kinda sounds like you have a bit of a vendetta with banana- though completely understandable, there are many better subs out there

    • @CuriousCatBakery
      @CuriousCatBakery  2 роки тому

      haha a banana vendetta sounds like the silliest thing on the planet but I guess I really do have one! I guess I'm just traumatized by all the awful recipes I tried when I was first starting out that would use a banana as a replacer. I actually have never used soda water but I've been meaning to try it! I love baking soda and vinegar. Maybe I'll do another video comparing both...
