Introduction to 4-H Bread Baking Lessons
Bread Making Project
This project was designed to encourage young people to bake bread often and in a variety of ways, to promote better nutrition and better management of time, energy and resources. The purpose is to: * Increase skills in selecting, preparing and storing bread products. * Discover that bread making can be quick and easy to prepare; adaptable to the time available and the occasion, and is a creative outlet. * Increase knowledge of shopping skills by recognizing the importance of checking labels for nutritional analysis and unit pricing, baking instructions, recipe variations and expiration date. * Increase knowledge and appreciation of history, customs, seasonal holidays and practices of people in other lands and cultures. * Improve scientific knowledge and practice safety in the kitchen. * Improve decision making, hand-eye coordination, and creativity. * Analyze the value of convenience in modern life. This project was written and reviewed on the PENpages electronic system in the hopes of gaining new information from young people and their adult leaders to improve the 4-H bread program in Pennsylvania. The following are copies of the electronic documents as they appeared on the system: Bread Basics 29503574 Speedy Breads Using New Techniques 29503575 Speedy Breads Using New Technology 29503576 Creative Breads 29503577 Breads and Other Generations 29503578 Breads and Other Cultures 29503579 Bibliography of Bread Resources 29503580 What do a baseball team and pancakes have in common?
