How Do You Work With Yeast In Bread Making?
Handmade loaves of bread are a treat anytime and easy to make once you learn how to gauge the warmth the liquid should be in order for the dough to rise. • Make sure you use yeast well within its freshness dates. This can be found either on the back of the paper packages or on the lid of the jar type. • Use milk or water yeast that is warm so it to activate and begin to rise. The temperature needed is generally between 120 degrees and 130 degrees F. • Note that non-instant yeast, known as granular yeast, the temperature should be between 90 to 110 degrees F. • Test the liquid with your finger tips, it should feel warm but not hot. Do not have any coolness if butter is used and it should be added to the flour mixture directly.
