SELECTING THE APPROPRIATE EQUIPMENT TO PREPARE A QUICKBREAD
The first experiment will be in selecting appropriate equipment for making a quickbread. Both blender and mixer utilize conversion from electric to mechanical energy. Muffin mixes are unusually quick and inexpensive to prepare because they require few additional ingredients and mixing time is held to a minimum. In this experiment, students will discover that mixing ingredients which are predominantly dry with some liquid are more efficiently mixed with an electric mixer rather than a blender. Blenders should primarily be used for beating liquid items together.
