  • Do you know why dough rises? Or the science behind kneading? This video is a short introduction to the chemistry of baking bread!

    I've baked bread many times, but never knew why I kneaded the dough. What a great visual story. My kids and I enjoyed learning how yeast works and you went beyond! Thanks!

      I too have baked with yeast, and I knew that the yeast produces co2, and the co2 makes the dough rise and makes it fluffy. I did know about the gluten holding it together, but I did not understand why. I knew that I had to knead the dough but, again, did not understand why.
      With this new understanding, I'm sure that I will be able to notice, and correct, problems in the future.
      Thanks a ton.

I've watched Michael Pollan's "Cooked" three times. I've watched Sean Brock explain it on A Mind of a Chef. I've even gone to a live bread-making cooking class. I watching this RUclips video, and now I understand! Thank you!

    My sons and I were talking about the Israelite Exodus and why we celebrate the Passover, and my son asked me why they had to eat bread without yeast. I told him it takes time for the bread to rise when we use yeast and of course he wanted to know why, why, and more why lol. This was a wonderful video with excellent visuals and very interesting to watch, even for my 3 year old. I’d love to see more videos like this!

      thanks! I didn't initially know the answer to your question but I did some digging. Here's what I learned: Yeast will still cause dough to rise even if it's made from gluten free ingredients. It's a slower process and it will not be as "fluffy" but it's still effective.

    • @susannaz6134
      @susannaz6134  9 лет назад +1

      for the recipe I'm using in the video, I use one packet (which contains a little over 2 teaspoons) of yeast and about 5-6 cups of flour. A few recipes I've seen for no-knead bread call for between 1/4-1/2 teaspoon of yeast and 2-3 cups of flour.
