Transcript excerpt

True or false, you need to preheat your oven for at least half an hour. True. Ovens heat up and then come down. If you start to cook when the little notification light turns off, it's still heating and it like it dumps in a whole bunch of heat and then it cools down and so you need to wait. So the answer is yes. You have to bake your carrot cake batter or your muffin batter the day that you mix it within half an hour, false. These batters actually hold quite well in the fridge for three, four days with no big difference in quality. Do you need to sift your flour? This is false. You need to weigh your flour. It's by the weight. It's by the gram. That's how you get consistent results. The only things you need to sift are things that are lumpy, like cocoa or icing sugar, powdered sugar. What do you call it? I think you call it powdered sugar. I call it icing sugar. And even if you think I got it all wrong, leave me a comment. If you know a myth that you think I need to bust, let me know.
