Household Hint
Roll, instead of kneading, yeast
dough. Without cutting down or
kneading the raised dough, turn I
it out onto a floured board or mag
ic cover and roll to desired shape.
It will roll out beautifully with
out snapping ba-k and forth, as it
does if the raised dough is kneaded
before rolling. You will find that
if the dough is well beaten and
well kneaded before it is put to
rise, it doesn’t need any more
