What is the difference in the process of baking between a bread and a pastry?
Can you tell me what is the difference in the process of baking between a bread and a pastry?
Sure! A major difference between the two is the ingredients used. While bread typically needs flour, water, yeast, and some salt, pastry usually includes fat, sugar, and flour. In terms of baking, bread requires a longer and hotter baking time compared to pastry. Additionally, bread needs time to rise, while pastry can be worked quickly to create the desired shape and texture.
