Drożdżowe jak puch - babcia uczy jak zrobić ciasto drożdżowe

For every holiday, there has to be a yeast cake in my house. Even though kneading the dough is quite difficult, I enjoy making it because everyone loves it. The video is long, and I know you could skip the kneading process, but I wanted to show you the technique I use to knead the dough and the consistency of the dough. I recommend getting your husband involved in the kneading process – it requires a lot of strength. I know that few people knead dough by hand or use a food processor these days. I'm showing you how my mother taught me to knead dough and how I do it myself. My only kitchen appliance is a mixer. Below is the recipe for the yeast cake. Yeast Cake 1 kg cake flour 8 eggs 250g butter 100g yeast Vanilla sugar 250g sugar 1 cup milk (250g) Approx. 100g raisins Approx. 2 tablespoons orange zest – about 2 tablespoons 1. Sift the flour through a sieve. Heat the milk. Crumble the yeast into a bowl, add a little flour and sugar, and mix with warm (not hot) milk. Make a well in the flour and pour the yeast mixture into it. Cover with a cloth and leave to rise. 2. While the yeast is rising, beat the egg whites until stiff peaks form with a pinch of salt. Transfer the egg whites to another bowl. Meanwhile, melt the butter. Beat the egg yolks with a cup of sugar and the vanilla sugar. Once the yeast has risen, return the egg yolk mixture to the bowl and knead the dough briefly. Add the cooled butter. Knead the dough briefly and then add the beaten egg whites. I added half of the remaining milk for now. Knead the dough. After the initial kneading, I added half of the remaining egg whites. Do not add any liquid that has separated from the egg whites. Knead the dough using the technique shown in the video. Knead for about 20 minutes. 3. Towards the end of kneading, add the orange zest and raisins and knead the dough briefly. Set the dough aside to rise; it should double in size. Cover the bowl with a cloth, preferably two. The dough will rise for about 15 minutes. 4. Grease the baking tins with butter. Fill the tins with the dough until they're ¾ full. 5. Preheat the oven to 80°C (175°F) and place the dough on the open oven door for about 5-10 minutes. Alternatively, place it in a warm place. 6. Once the dough has risen, transfer it to the oven and preheat the oven to 180°C (350°F). Bake for about 45 minutes. Test with a toothpick. If the toothpick comes out wet, bake for another 5 minutes. Watch the cake closely to ensure it doesn't burn! 7. You can dust the cake with powdered sugar or icing. Enjoy! ----------------------- I encourage you to take part in the fundraiser 😊 http://www.siepomaga.pl/babciabasiadl...
