As we wrap up the school year, the Culinary Occupations 1 students explored the role wheat gluten plays in the formation of bread dough. They washed the starch out of their doughs, baked them, sliced them open to observe the structure, and finally examined the gluten formations under a microscope.
The objective is for students to better understand the importance of proper mixing techniques and ingredient options when making yeast bread doughs. All in all, a fun and enlightening experience!
