Want this question answered?
Rubbing method is quick & simple, this method is used for plain cakes whereas creaming method is mostly used for mixtures in which the fat & sugar are beaten together until the mixture look like a nice cream.thanks for reading myanswer.........(^_^)
creaming
one of them is the creaming method
The creaming method is a method of mixing the sugar and butter and eggs for a cake or biscuits by: * beating the butter (softened a little if necessary) with the sugar until a soft pale cream thck and fluffy mixture is obtained, * then beating in the eggs one by one.This method dissolves the sugar well and incorporates a lot of air bubbles, making the final baked product soft and fluffy.When the fat and the sugar is beaten until it is light and fluffy.
Creaming
It is necessary to cream the fat and sugar in cookie dough in order to break down the sugar crystals. If the fat and sugar are not thoroughly creamed, undissolved sugar crystals can cause a gritty dough.
the definition of creaming in baking is mixing together butter, margarine, or someohter solid fat with sugar until they are well mized making a soft consistency
Proper creaming of the cookie dough determines its final texture and the amount it spreads during baking. When thoroughly creamed, granulated sugar begins to dissolve and fat is properly aerated. Thoroughly creamed sugar and fat produce a cookie with maximum spread. When less spread is desired, less creaming is recommended. Too much creaming produces a cookie that crumbles easily.
Most cakes are made by first creaming the fat (butter, shortening, etc.) together before adding the eggs and other ingredients. There are only a few exceptions to this method (such as Angel Food cake, which has no fat in it), so this method would include all "standard" cakes, as well a fruit cakes, pound cakes, etc.
the melt and mix method is when you melt butter and add it to sugar. this method is used in cooking.
There are 4 main methods of making cakes - I don't know of a fifth method.1. The Rubbing-In Method - The fat is rubbed into the flour. Then the other dry ingredients are added, followed by the wet ingredients like eggs, milk and oil.2. The Creaming Method - The butter and sugar are first worked together in a mixing bowl until they are light and fluffy. Then the eggs are added, followed by the flour.3. The Sponge Cake Method - The eggs and sugar are whisked together until light and creamy, and the flour is then lightly folded in.4. The Melting Method - The fat is melted, along with any syrup, sugar or treacle in the recipe (this method is often used for gingerbread.) Then add the flour, followed by the beaten eggs and milk.
