Better Bread Using Old Dough Recipe
- One way I have come across to improve my bread is to use old Dough.
- Now what I mean is I make a 6 c. batch of plain dough.
- yeast water and flour.
- I let it rise twice nice and slow.
- then put it in the refrigerator.
- So before I make bread I bring it out and let it hot up.
- The amount of the old dough in the new is not super critical.
- I use about 4 c. of it to 12 c. of flour.
- I then use far less yeast.
- about a tsp.
- compared to a Tbsp..
- This will change good bread into great bread.
- It is not sourdough so it does not really change the taste of bread.
- just makes it better.
- Makes the dough handle better too.
- I take a small piece and make a batch of dough with 5 c. flour and about 2 tsp yeast.
- let it rise most of the day and then back into the fridge.
flour, yeast
