Sweet Essentials: Greasing and Lining Tins and Working with Pastry

Here are just a few tips to ensure your gorgeous baked goods can be successfully released from their tins or trays. Following these steps will also result in evenly cooked pastry that won’t leak. Remember, every little detail in your cooking can make all the difference so be sure to use the correct tin, tray or ring and ensure they are greased adequately and lined neatly with baking paper, if using. If you take time and care in the rolling, lining and blind baking of your pastry you will have a greater chance of a successful final product.
