All the ingredients included here are derived from milk or eggs. In their principal value is there are also tenderising properties associated with the fats and emulsifying compounds which they contain. Milk, butter, cheese and eggs have been traditional ingredients for baking due to their exceptional nutritional values as well as their flavour. The techmology of milk production has now developed to such an extent that there are a large

The only difference between a fat and an edible oil is that at ambient temperature a fat is semi-solid, and appears more or less firm to the touch, and an oil is liquid. They are both of similar general chemical composition. Edible oils are completely different in chemical form to mineral oils that are used as fuels or for lubrication. Most mineral oils are hazardous to human health and should not be even a small

The appeal to consumers is determine by the appearance and eating qualities. For example, consumers do not like broken biscuits nor ones that have been over or under baked

Introduction This manual is one of a series dealing with materials and manufacturing procedures for biscuits It describes, in general terms the most important ingredients used to make biscuits by type, function, handling and storage. Most of the ingredients are used to make biscuit dough. The techniques for
