The method by which flour and fat in the dough are kneaded by spreading it with the heel of the hand.

Welcome friends. My name is Effie and I am utterly infatuated with baking and the study of this most delicious craft. I am a wife, mom, daughter, sister, lawyer, lifelong baker and most recently, a contestant on the American Baking Competition on CBS. I am also a habitually sleep-deprived baking-science nerd who is a type A perfectionist trapped in the body of a type B adventurer.
Dear Reader, this is a blog that was created for and inspired by you. If there is a baking technique or recipe that you would like to master, send me a note! — Effie
