Baking is a sacred thing. Anyone who can bake well is basically at home in the kitchen. And do you know that when you bake a pudding, a skewer can be your great helper? Take a look.
The kitchen is perhaps the holiest place in the house, because absolute miracles happen there. Absolutely divine dishes are created there from some low-fat and unsalted ingredients. And then it’s time to bake. Baking is an absolutely incredible art. And that’s why it’s also the hardest.
Mixing together flour, sugar, eggs, milk, and so on is not that difficult. But picking the right time so that the given dessert is baked correctly is the real art. And it takes years of practice, or some skilled helper. And that can be, for example, a skewer.

A perfectly baked dessert
As an example, we will use a cake. Once you’ve mixed all the ingredients, you’ve made the dough, you’ve even prepared the frosting, and now all you have to do is bake the cake. In the recipe, you have an absolutely precise procedure and exact baking time. However, when you take the cake out of the oven, you will find that it is undercooked. Or, on the contrary, you got burned. The original recipe simply failed. So what about it, and what is it?
In short and well, every oven bakes differently, which means that you cannot rely 100% on the original time in the recipe. So how do you know if the cake is really perfectly baked? For example, with meat, you can find out if it is ready by using a special meat thermometer. You don’t have to worry, it’s much easier with doughnuts. All you need is an ordinary skewer.
Skewers as a baking aid
You only need a wooden skewer to tell if the cake, or any other dessert, is properly baked. Put the cake in the oven. As soon as it seems to you that the surface of the cake is baked, insert a skewer into it. If the dough sticks to the stick, the cake is not ready yet. Repeat this process until there is no more dough sticking to the stick. And you’re done.
