SHAKING AND BAKE Meaning and
Definition
-
"Shaking and bake" is a colloquial phrase used to describe a cooking technique where food is first coated with seasoning or breading by shaking it in a bag and then baked to completion. The term is believed to have originated from the commercial brand "Shake 'n Bake," which popularized this method.
In cooking, the "shaking and bake" process typically involves placing the desired food item, such as chicken or pork, into a plastic bag. The bag is then filled with a mixture of seasonings and breadcrumb or coating, before being tightly closed. The bag is shaken vigorously, causing the seasoning mixture to evenly coat the food, providing flavor and a crispy outer layer. After shaking, the food is transferred to a baking dish or sheet, where it is then cooked in an oven until it reaches the desired level of tenderness and doneness.
The term "shaking and bake" has also developed a figurative use beyond cooking. It can be employed to describe a rapid or efficient method of completing a task. Just as in cooking where the process of shaking the bag allows for even coating without extensive handling, the figurative use of "shaking and bake" implies quickly completing a task with efficiency and minimal effort. This colloquialism ensures the concept is widely understood across contexts, as many people can relate to or have heard of the cooking technique associated with the phrase.
