What learners will learn

After going through this module, learners are expected to:

  1. identify the required ingredients in pastry production;
  2. explain the importance of measuring and weighing ingredients; and
  3. discuss the ratio of ingredients in pastry making.

Selecting ingredients for pastry

The module explains that pastry uses mostly the same ingredients as other bakery products, with a few specific to pastry. A good pastry is light, airy, and flaky, with a buttery taste. Correct mixing and baking techniques help produce these qualities.

Flour

Flour makes up the bulk of the ingredients in pastry.

  • Pastry flour has enough gluten for structure and flakiness. It is good for cookies, pie dough, biscuits, and muffins.
  • All-purpose flour has 10 to 12 percent protein. It can replace pastry flour when pastry flour is not available, because most pastry dough does not need highly developed gluten.
  • If a stronger flour is used, increase the shortening for more tenderness.
  • Too much flour gives a tough, dry, flavorless product. Too little flour gives a flat, tough, flavorless product.
  • The ratio of flour to shortening ranges from 1:1/3 to 1:2/3.

Fats

Fat makes pastry tender and flaky.

  • Shortening is the most popular fat for pie crust. It has the right consistency for a flaky crust and is firm enough for an easily worked dough. It works best cold.
  • Butter gives excellent flavor but is expensive and melts easily, so the dough is hard to work.
  • Margarine should not be used, because it blends too quickly with flour and makes a flaky pastry hard to achieve.
  • Oil makes pastry very tender but crumbly rather than flaky.
  • Lard is rendered hog fat, mainly used in cooking.

If butter replaces shortening, increase the fat by about one-fourth (for example, 1 pound 4 ounces of butter for 1 pound of shortening). Reduce the liquid slightly, because butter contains moisture.

Leavening, liquids, and other ingredients

  • Leavening: steam raises puff and flaky pastries. Egg and steam raise choux pastry. Yeast is used for croissants and Danish pastry.
  • Liquids bind the flour-shortening mixture. Water should be ice-cold. Milk makes pastry brown beautifully but less tender. Chilled orange or lemon juice adds flavor to the crust. Add cold liquid gradually, since flours absorb liquid differently.
  • Salt tenderizes and conditions gluten and adds flavor. Dissolve it in the liquid first so it spreads evenly. Skip salt if margarine is used.
  • Sugar sweetens the dough.
  • Egg yolk emulsifies the dough, giving a tender, rich, brown crust.
  • Flavorings such as herbs, spices, essences, and cheeses may be added.

Measuring, weighing, and ratios

Accurate measuring and weighing matter because they affect the qualities of the baked product. The module gives a full table of cup weights, credited to Rose Levy Beranbaum. A few examples:

IngredientMethod of measureOunces per cupGrams per cup
ButterScoop and packed8227
Vegetable shorteningScoop and packed6.7191
Granulated sugarDip and sweep7200
Powdered sugarLightly spooned4115
Pastry flourDip and sweep4.5130
All-purpose flour, bleachedSifted4114

A part is an amount of one ingredient relative to another, using the same unit. For example, four parts flour and one part chocolate chips means 4 cups flour and 1 cup chips, or 4 tablespoons and 1 tablespoon. Basic ratios from the module:

ProductFlourFatLiquidEggSugar
Pie dough321
Single crust pie11/3
Biscuit312
Cookie321
Pate a choux (cream puff dough)1122
Muffin2121
Pancake21/221

The module also lists ratios for bread, fritters, crepes, and popovers, with notes such as keeping fat and liquid for pie dough as cold as possible.

How to use this module

The module follows the usual self-learning module parts:

  1. What I Know: a 15-item multiple-choice pretest.
  2. What’s In: a review of baking terms and tools from the previous lesson.
  3. What’s New: a 10-item analogy test.
  4. What Is It: the main discussion of ingredients, measures, and ratios.
  5. What’s More: a 15-item matching test.
  6. What I Have Learned: a 10-item fill-in-the-blanks activity.
  7. What I Can Do: two essay questions, scored with a rubric on clarity, comprehensiveness, and relevance.
  8. Assessment: a 15-item multiple-choice posttest.
  9. Additional Activity: a 10-item true or false test.

Learners: write all answers on a separate sheet, not on the module, and check your work honestly with the answer key at the end. Parents: help your child follow the parts in order and contact the teacher about any difficulty. Teachers: review the printed answer key before using it. Some Assessment answers do not match the lesson. For example, the key gives C (melt) for the shortening item, while the lesson says shortening works best cold.

Frequently asked questions

What grade and quarter is this Bread and Pastry Production module for?

It is for Grade 10 TLE, Bread and Pastry Production NC II, Quarter 2, Module 2. It covers Lesson 2, Select, Measure, and Weigh Ingredients in Preparing Pastry Products.

What is the best flour to use if pastry flour is not available?

The module says all-purpose flour can be used, because most pastry dough does not need highly developed gluten.

What is the ratio for pie dough?

The module gives pie dough as 3 parts flour, 2 parts fat, and 1 part liquid, with the fat and liquid as cold as possible. A single crust pie is 1 part flour to 1/3 part fat.

Why should margarine not be used for pastry?

Margarine blends too quickly with the flour, which makes a flaky pastry difficult to achieve.

Does the module have an answer key?

Yes, it has answer keys for the pretest, activities, and assessment. Teachers should check them, because several Assessment answers do not match the lesson content.

What Is It
Baking Ingredients in Pastry Making

Like bakery products, pastry products have also their required ingredients. The required ingredients for pastry are the same with those required in bakery products except for some ingredients that are specific for pastry production.

Pastry as a finished product is characterized as having light, airy, fly, and buttertaste. All pastry is made up of a combination of different ingredients such as flour, water, salt, butter, or other fats. Pastry products with the desired characteristics can be produced by observing correct mixing procedures and baking techniques.

I. Selecting Required Ingredients for Pastry Production
  1. Flour = makes up the bulk of the ingredients in pastry
    a. All-purpose Flour = contains 10-12% protein and can be used in bread, cake and pastry making. If pastry flour is not available, all-purpose flour can be used instead. Most pastry dough does not need highly developed gluten.
    b. Pastry Flour = has enough gluten to produce the desired structure and flakiness. It is good for making cookies, pie dough, biscuits, and muffins. Note: If stronger flour is used, the percentage of shortening be increased to produce more tenderness. The use of too much flour results in a tough, dry, and flavorless recipe. On the other hand, too little flour results in a flat, tough, and flavorless baked product. The ratio of flour to shortening ranges from 1:1/3 to 1:2/3.


  2. Fat = this contributes to the tenderness and flakiness of pastry.
    a. Shortening = the most popular fat for pie crust because it has the right plastic consistency to produce a flaky crust. It is firm and moldable enough to make an easily worked dough.


    b. Butter = contributes excellent flavor to pie pastry, but it is not frequently used in volume production for two reasons: it is expensive, and its melts very easily, making the dough difficult to work.
    c. Margarine = this should not be used because it blends too quickly with the flour, making a flaky pastry difficult to achieve.
    d. Oil = makes the pastry very tender, but crumbly rather than flaky.
    e. Lard = rendered fat of hogs and mainly used in cooking.


    Note: If butter is used in place of shortening, the percentage of fat in the formula should be increased by about one-fourth. (If 1 pound shortening is called for, use 1 pound 4 ounces butter, if 500grams shortening are called for, use 65 grams butter). The differences in texture of many pastries have to do with the type of fats and how fats are introduced during the process. The liquid should be reduced slightly, as butter contains moisture.


  3. Leavening Agents
    a. Steam = act as the raising agents in puff and flaky pastries.
    b. Egg and steam = act as raising agents for choux pastry
    c. Yeast = use in making Croissants and Danish pastry


  4. Liquid = use to bind and hold together the blended flour-shortening mixture.
    a. Water = is used to bind and hold together the blended flour-shortening mixture. It should be ice-cold to get the best result.
    b. Milk = sometimes used instead of water; it produces pastry that browns beautifully but tends to be less tender than made with water.
    c. Chilled orange or lemon juice = can be used instead of water to add flavor to the crust.


    Note: Add cold liquid ingredients on a gradual basis. Since different types of flour have different absorbing properties. The addition of liquid contributes to flakiness as the temperature of liquids allows fat particles to become well-formed and preserved. Likewise, the flour particles become less saturated with the additional water, thus minimizing swelling.


  5. Salt = it has a tenderizing and conditioning effect on the gluten.
    = its main contribution is to add flavor and it must be dissolved into the liquid before adding to even distribution.


    [transcriber’s note: the term before “=” on this line is missing in the source]


    Note: Skip using salt if margarine is used.


  6. Sugar = it is added to sweeten the pastry dough


  7. Egg = the yolk emulsifies the dough giving the crust characteristics of tenderness, richness, and brown color.


  8. Flavorings such as herbs, spices, essences, and cheeses may be used and be added to the basic pastry dough.


I. Measuring and Weighing Required Ingredients for Pastry Production

Measuring and weighing accurately the required ingredients in pastry making is of great importance for it may affect the desired characteristics of the baked goods.

II. Ratio of Ingredients

Following a recipe is a great way to get started in the kitchen. However, once you have gotten the hang of it, you can learn the few choice ratios that govern dozens of different baked products and free yourself from the restriction of recipes. Baking can be daunting, but what you may not know is that a lot of foods are governed by some very basic math. Once you understand it, you’ll always be able to make a batch of freshly baked products.

Part = is a designated amount of one ingredient relative to an amount of another ingredient, unit of measure being the same.

Example: four parts flour and one-part chocolate chips, it means you need 4 tablespoons of four and 1tablespoon of chocolate chips or 4 cups flour and 1 cup chocolate chips. The Basic Ratios: Bread, Pie Dough and Pancakes (by: A Tuscan Foodie in America)
