yeast dough
Bread before baking
Yeast dough is dough that uses yeast as its leavening agent.
The yeast ferments sugars, producing carbon dioxide that makes the dough rise and gives bread its airy texture.
Yeast doughs require time to proof—to rest while the yeast works—unlike quick breads made with baking powder.
Most bread, pizza crust, and dinner rolls start as yeast dough.
