BREAD / PIZZA DOUGH COURSES
Dough Course Hints for Best Results
• If using delay bake timer, make sure yeast is on top of flour, away from
liquids.
Important: Never allow dough to remain in bread maker after course is
complete; it may over rise and damage machine.
• Rising times for dough after it is shaped and placed in baking pan will vary
due to recipe, temperature and humidity level of your kitchen. Optimum
temperature of room for rising is 80°– 85°F/27°– 29°C. Rising is most
essential feature in bread making.
• Breadmaker allows dough to have first rise or fermentation before dough
is removed. Fermentation conditions gluten, (becoming pliable and elastic
with a soft, smooth quality) develops flavor and leavens product.
• Sometimes a double rising is beneficial especially for whole grain or
100% whole wheat bread. Let dough rise once in breadmaker. Remove
from breadmaker, punch down, let rise again, punch down and let rest
10 minutes. Resting allows gluten to relax and makes handling easier.
Shape as desired and allow to rise until doubled in volume. If only 1 rise is
desired, remove from breadmaker, let rest, shape and rise as above.
Baker’s Hint:
• Dough has doubled in volume when an indentation remains after tip of a
finger is pressed lightly and quickly into dough. If indentation springs back,
cover and let rise a few more minutes and check again.
