Combine ingredients in the following manner and bake samples at the following temperatures : l 1 These temperatures are suggested by Miss Van Arsdale in the Bulletin, Some Attempts to Standardize Oven Temperatures for Cookery Processes. Note which range in temperature approximated a satisfactory result. Take the most satis- factory range and again bake muffins, using the selected temperatures as a starting point from which to formulate a range in temperature which produces desirable results. What conditions influence the production of muffins and necessitate a graduation in temperature ? FLOUR MIXTURES 175 ° 250-350 350-400° F. 400-450° F. 450-5500 F.
