About Yeasted wheat dough
Yeasted wheat dough is a mixture made primarily from wheat flour, water and yeast, left to ferment before shaping or baking. Its appearance ranges from smooth and elastic to softer and tackier, depending on hydration and handling.
It is used as a base for baked foods and may be sold or prepared as fresh dough, refrigerated dough or frozen dough. Recipes can also include salt, sugar, fat or other ingredients, so the term does not imply one fixed formulation or a finished baked product.
