Is Your Bread Kneaded Enough?

Is Your Bread Kneaded Enough?

blog-07

Making your own homemade bread is one of the most satisfying kitchen achievements, though getting started can be a bit overwhelming. When I first started dabbling in a yeasted bread, I fretted about proofing the yeast and letting the dough rise enough. Turns out that with a thermometer, letting yeast proof is simple. Let’s see how to do it.

To knead bread dough, turn it out—that’s baker speak for “move the dough from the bowl”—onto a lightly floured surface. Dust your hands with flour then shape the dough into a ball.

However, knowing how to knead the dough (and how long to do it) is another story. It’s an important step: Kneading the dough helps develop gluten, which gives the bread structure. But don’t worry—once you get the hang of the kneading, you’ll be ready to tackle any bread, even this gorgeous star bread.
