When recipe says mix.

Looking at the different choices of speeds at your mixer can seem a bit daunting. If your baking recipe asks you to beat something it means that you should move fast and whip the ingredients together.
I have watched bakers creaming butter and sugar until it is really fluffy. Set to number 8. Set to number 10. If the recipe says.
What happens is the butter and sugar starts to melt and become greasy around the edges of its fluffy mass meaning it is too warm and or you haven t scraped. Set to number 4. It means to mix them well. A how many cups of each pineapple juice do you need to make 108 cups of punch.
This results in a whole host of problems such as dense flat and flavorless recipes even cookies. Otherwise combine them well. Mixing on the other hand doesn t require speed. Blend usually means your going to take the ingredients and break it down usually to a liquid state and blend it with the other ingredients in the recipe as the name implies you must a use blender when you see the word blend.
