Baker’s Hint:

Dough has doubled in volume when an indentation remains after tip of a finger is pressed lightly and quickly into dough. If indentation springs back, cover and let rise a few more minutes and check again.

MAKING DOUGHS: CRUST TREATMENTS

Important: For use only with the Dough Courses

Always allow optimum rising of shaped dough.

Use pastry brush to apply glaze.

Bake as directed.

Egg Yolk Glaze

For shiny golden crust, mix 1 slightly beaten egg or egg yolk with 1 tbsp. water or milk.

Egg White Glaze

For shiny, chewy crust, mix 1 slightly beaten egg white with 1 tbsp. water.

Lightly Floured

Crisscross Rolls
