Baking

Baking has its origins in prehistoric times when humans discovered wild grains and began grinding them into flour. In ancient Greece, the hourglass was invented to grind grains. By the 1600s, commercial bakeries existed in Europe. Scientific study of yeast in the 1600s led to an understanding of how it causes dough to rise. In the Philippines, wheat was cultivated as early as the 1600s to make communion wafers. The document then defines various technical baking terms used in processes like creaming, folding, rolling, and various methods of mixing and shaping ingredients.

with water, yielded dough.
In the seventeenth century, the leavening process was scientifically studied through a
microscope.
The yeast cells were identified to be responsible for the formation of air bubbles in
the dough causing it to rise.
