Perfect Yeast Pastry Dough
Description
The preparation begins by activating dry yeast in warm milk mixed with sugar, allowing it to become bubbly to ensure a good rise. Eggs, mayonnaise, salt, and additional sugar are incorporated to enrich the dough. Flour is added gradually to form the dough, and cooking oil is introduced at the end to improve the texture and dough elasticity.
After thorough kneading, the dough is left to rise for about an hour until doubled in size, developing a smooth, elastic consistency ideal for shaping into pastries. Mayonnaise in the dough adds moisture and tenderness, distinguishing it from simpler yeast doughs.
This pastry dough can be used for a variety of sweet or savory baked goods, offering a soft crumb and pliable texture that holds fillings well. The recipe suggests Canadian flour for optimal results, but other all-purpose flours may also be used. Proper kneading and rising are key steps for achieving the desired texture.
Ingredients
- 2 cup milk
- 1 1/2 tbsp yeast dry
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 3 egg
- 1 tsp salt
- 2 tbsp mayonnaise
- 6 cup flour (Canadian flour works best for baked pastries)
- 3 tbsp neutral cooking oil generic cooking oil
Instructions
- Combine yeast together with warm milk and one tablespoon of sugar. Let ingredients rest on a counter for about 10 minutes.
- Add eggs, mayonnaise, salt and sugar into the mixture, whisking together to combine.
- Mix in flour using Kitchen aid mixer or a spatula, in small portions. Once the flour is all mixed in, add oil to the mixture. It is important to add oil last, as the texture of the dough turns out better.
- Knead the dough until it is elastic, at least for 10 minutes. Let dough rise for about an hour.
