Preparing the Ingredients
Every great baked good begins with the right ingredient (مكون). In many recipes, the most essential of these is butter (زبدة).
| What are the ingredients? Is butter an important ingredient? | ما المكونات؟ هل الزبدة مكون مهم؟mâ al-mukawwinât? hal az-zubdatu mukawwinun muhimm? |
| The butter melted in the tray. | ذابت الزبدة في الصينية.dhâbati az-zubdatu fî as-sîniyyati. |
Rising Dough
To bake fresh breads and pastries, you will need yeast (خميرة) to make the dough rise (انتفخ).
When talking about past outcomes, Arabic uses لولا to mean "if it were not for." You can use it to express how vital an ingredient was to your baking success.
| The dough did not rise because the yeast is old. | لم ينتفخ العجين لأن الخميرة قديمة.lam yantafikhi al-'ajînu li'anna al-khamîrata qadîmah. |
| If it were not for the yeast, the dough would not have risen. | لولا الخميرة، ما انتفخ العجين.lawlâ al-khamîratu, mâ intafakha al-ajînu |
Trays and Crusts
When your creation is ready for the oven, you will place your pie (فطيرة) into a baking tray (صينية). If baked well, the pastry will develop a perfect crust (قشرة).
| Put the pie in the tray, please. | ضع الفطيرة في الصينية من فضلك.da'i al-fatîra fî as-sîniyya min fadlik |
| I like the pie with the delicious crust. | أحب الفطيرة ذات القشرة اللذيذة.uhibbu al-fatîrata dhâta al-qishrati al-ladhîdhati |
Decorating the Pastries
Finally, it is time to add flavor and make the sweets beautiful. You might choose chocolate (شوكولاتة) or vanilla (فانيليا). To describe the act of adding these final touches, use the verb زين (to decorate).
| Do you prefer chocolate or vanilla? | هل تفضلين الشوكولاتة أو الفانيليا؟hal tufaddilîna ash-shûkûlâtah aw al-fâniliyâ? |
| The baker decorated the cake with chocolate. | زين الخباز الكعكة بالشوكولاتة.zayyana al-khabbâzu al-ka'kata bi-ash-shûkûlâtati. |
