Dry
Baking |
|
Steam
from the food combines with dry
heat in the oven to cook the
food (eg cakes, pastries, etc). |
Baking
with Increased Humidity |
This
is introduced to certain food
by steam injection or placing
a bowl of water in the oven. |
|
Baking
with Heat Modification (au bain
marie) |
Food
is placed in a container of water
to modify the temperature. A
cartouche placed over fish cuts
during the baking process will
maintain a layer of steam. This
prevents the fish from drying
out and retains juices and flavour. |
