WP:FOOD Needs You!
Hi there The Potato Hose! I've noticed you have yourself listed as a member of the Food and Drink Wikiproject. Unfortunately it looks like the project has been slowly sliding into inactivity except for a couple of people. That makes me a sad potato, and nobody likes a sad potato amirite?
If you'd like to turn my frown upside down, can you do two small things?
First off, go here and add {{Tick}} (
) next to your name if you're still part of the project.
Second, go to the project talkpage and participate in a discussion about how to make the project more active, and how to go about making articles in our area of interest a lot better.
You don't want to make me cry, do you? Potatoes have a lot of eyes you know. So come on, join in! :)

Baking
This is a visual representation of steps involved in baking bread in a commercial bakery.
1. The yeast dough has been completely mixed.
2. The baker removes enough dough to make one loaf of bread.
3. This rack is filled with proofing baskets (also called brotform or banneton).
4. The proofing baskets are dusted with flour to keep the bread dough from sticking to the baskets.
5. The dough has been placed in the floured baskets.
6. The dough begins rising in a warm place.
7. The risen dough is slashed with a lame to create a design and to let steam escape during baking.
8. The dough is ready to bake.
9. The dough is turned out onto a baking peel.
10. The dough is slid into the oven.
11. The loaves are moved around in the oven so that they will bake evenly.
12. The hot loaves are placed on a wheeled baker's rack to cool.
