Yeast station

The yeast station is the busiest station that I have been in. Making the dough, proofing it and then baking it is a long process which takes up a lot of time. In this station I used the straight dough method a lot. Straight dough method is when yeast gets mixed with warm water or warm milk and then everything else just gets mixed in. I learnt not to give the yeast direct contact to the salt and that some yeast recipe's have very few ingredients. My favorite part of this station was frying the doughnuts, glazing them with chocolate glaze and adding smarties or sprinkles to the final touch. This week I'm going to learn how to make cookies.
