What is meant by proportion of ingredients?
"proportion" means how much of one ingredient as compared to other ingredients. For instance the proportion of fat to flour in shortcrust pastry is twice the amount of flour to the amount of fat used.
What is happening when you rub fats into flour?
The fibers of flour are long and stringy. When they get wet they become gooey. Thus, shortening. The fats shorten the fibers and keep the flour from becoming a glob. Oil works on the same principle. Answer When you rub fats into flour you are surrounding the little bits of fat with flour which will result in a flakey texture in your finished product

200 g in the ratio 8 : 3 : 2 is approx 123 g, 46 g and 31 g.
What is it to mix 1 part of something to 2 parts of something?
Mixing two things with 1 part of one to 2 parts of another is setting a ratio. The ratio of 1 to 2, or 1:2 will insure "good results" in the activity. If 1 pound of sugar is mixed with 2 pounds of flour, you'll have a 1:2 ratio. If you mix 2 pounds of sugar with 4 pounds of flour, you'll have that same 1:2 ratio. Ratio, or proportion as some call it, insures that a cook, baker or another individual combining ingredients to make anything will end up with the desired results at the end of the mixing operation. The ingredients will be in the mixture in the correct ratio or proportion.
Is fat percentage of a food ordinal or interval scale?

What is the ratio of fat to flour in shortcrust pastry is this different for pate sucre?
In shortcrust pastry, the typical ratio of fat to flour is about 1:2, meaning for every part of fat, there are two parts of flour. In contrast, pâte sucrée, which is a sweet pastry, often has a higher fat content, with a common ratio of 1:1.5 or even 1:1, resulting in a richer and sweeter dough. This difference in fat content contributes to the texture and flavor variations between the two types of pastry.
How does the ratio of fat and flour effect the cake?
The higher the fat percentage, the more moist (but potentially lumpy) the cake is. The higher the flour percentage, the more dry and chalky tasting the cake will be.
What is the ratio of fat to flour for suet pastry?
The traditional ratio of fat to flour for suet pastry is typically 1:2, meaning one part suet to two parts flour. This ratio helps achieve a rich, tender pastry that holds its shape well during baking. Adjustments can be made based on personal preference or specific recipes, but this classic ratio provides a solid foundation for suet pastry.
What is the ratio of flour icing suger and butter in sablee paste?

What is the ratio when cake flour is replaced with High-ratio flour when baking a sponge cake?
When substituting high-ratio flour for cake flour in a sponge cake recipe, use a 1:1 ratio. However, high-ratio flour contains more protein and can absorb more liquid, so you may need to slightly adjust the liquid ingredients or the fat content to achieve the desired batter consistency. Additionally, keep an eye on the baking time, as it may vary slightly with the different flour.
When you make scones do you use half the amount of fat to flour?
When making scones, a common ratio is to use about one part fat to two parts flour, which means you typically use less fat than flour. For example, if you have 2 cups of flour, you would use about 1/2 cup of fat (like butter). This ratio helps achieve a tender texture while maintaining the right balance for rising. However, variations exist depending on specific recipes and desired richness.
Why are my cookies too crumbly?
Your cookies may be too crumbly because they have too much flour or not enough fat in the recipe. Adjusting the ratio of flour to fat can help make your cookies more moist and less crumbly.
What is the proportion of fat to flour in flaky pastry?
The proportion of fat to flour depends largely on the type of pastry dough you are talking about, and what your fat source is. For pie crust dough, I've seen the ideal ratio described as 1 part fat to 2 parts flour. However, that ratio applies just to the ratio of one ingredient to another, not to the ultimate percentage of fat involved. Butter and shortening, for example, are not equivalent, and don't have the same fat content: shortening is 100% fat, whereas butter is around 80% fat (and the fat content can vary by brand). If you were referring to actual pastry dough, the percentage of fat to flour is going to differ more greatly. A popover dough for example, is going to contain a lot less butter than a pastry based on a puff pastry dough, croissants, for example.
