How to Make Baked Goods That Stay Soft for a Long Time: Chefs Reveal Secrets

For some housewives, baked goods become stale after just a few hours, despite all their efforts.

But professional confectioners' products remain soft and fresh for several days.

This is easily explained by the fact that cooks actively use professional tricks, explains Yulia Arkhipova, an expert on cooking for the online publication BelNovosti.

What tricks are worth knowing?

Quality of flour

In order for baked goods to remain soft for a long period of time, preference is given to the highest quality premium flour.

Mineral water

Few people know that adding carbonated drinking water to the dough helps baked goods stay fresh and soft for several days.

Honey

This trick seems even more unexpected, but it really works. It is enough to add just one small spoon of honey to the dough to keep the flour products fresh as long as possible.

Starch

It is necessary to add a small amount of starch so that the products remain fresh for a long period of time. But the type of starch does not matter.
