Raw yeast dough

Step-by-step cooking

1. Step 1:

   

   To prepare the yeast dough, prepare the necessary ingredients. Yeast is usually sold in small briquettes of 100 grams. Cut off the required amount and break into small pieces. Sift the flour of the highest or first grade a couple of times through a sieve to saturate it with oxygen. Thanks to this, the finished products from such a dough will be very airy. Milk must be heated to a warm state. Try it with your hand. It should not burn.

2. Step 2:

   

   Pour some warm milk into a small bowl and add yeast. Then add sugar. Yeast should be fresh.

   Add a couple of spoonfuls of flour from the total.

   Melt the butter. This can be done in a microwave oven.

    The dough is very soft and airy, so it rises quite quickly. But it can't stand drafts. Therefore, when working with yeast dough, all windows in the kitchen should be closed. Use the finished yeast dough as intended.
