Cooking features

The technology for preparing quick dough with dry yeast differs from the traditional one. In order to avoid mistakes and get the expected result, you need to know and take into account the features of this process.

• You need to start with choosing products. Pressed, dry active and instant yeast are available for sale. Pressed mushrooms are live mushrooms that, feeding on glucose (sugar), produce carbon dioxide, the bubbles of which raise the dough. Dry active yeast appeared in the middle of the last century. This is dried live yeast. They work the same way: 1 g of dry yeast replaces 3 g of pressed yeast. They also need to be activated in warm liquid. Dry yeast does not have such a pronounced specific odor and allows you to add it to the dough in slightly larger quantities than required to speed up the rise of the dough. However, their use can speed up this process slightly. Dry instant yeast is made from other yeast cultures and using a different technology and is stored exclusively in vacuum packaging. They are able to rise the dough several times faster than usual. They are used to prepare quick dough for pies.
• Instant dry yeast does not require activation; to speed up the process of kneading the dough, you can do without preparing the starter by immediately mixing the yeast with flour.
• After opening the package, instant yeast must be used as quickly as possible, since it loses activity literally by leaps and bounds. Experts do not recommend storing them for more than 1–2 days.
• Usually 10 g of instant yeast is added to 1 kg of flour, but to prepare quick dough their dosage is usually increased by 1.5 or even 2 times.
• The quality of flour also matters. The higher its grade, the tastier and more fluffy the baked goods will be.
• Flour must be sifted before use. This is done not only to rid it of small debris and mealy moths. The main task is to saturate the product with oxygen. After sifting, the flour becomes lighter and looser, and combines better with other components without forming lumps. Baking from it comes out more airy.
• Yeast dough, even made with instant yeast, does not tolerate cold and drafts. Products for it are also not used cold.
• Dough made with instant yeast rises quickly and falls just as quickly. Therefore, immediately after raising it, you should not waste time, but you should immediately begin shaping and baking the pies. Therefore, it is better to prepare the filling for them in advance.

The taste of pies made from dough with dry yeast is no worse than those made with live yeast, and they smell even more appetizing.
