How To Make a Proofing Box Preparation
To make the OProofing BoxO: Quoting Worldwide Sourdoughs From Your Bread Machine by Donna Rathmell German and Ed Wood, To really make a sourdough sing, it needs a warm environment after it comes out of the refrigerator. The ideal is 85 to 95 degrees . . . The best solution is to fashion a ”proofing box”. Seek out an ordinary styrofoam cooler, the bigger the better. Throw away the top, turn it upside down and cut a hole in the middle of the bottom just big enough to admit a standard light socket. A 25-watt bulb should maintain the correct temperature. If you want to get fancy, put a light dimmer switch on the cord and you can regulate the temperature precisely. Now, I use my proofing box to rise the dough once I have formed it into a loaf and put it in a pan. Check the loaf every half hour or so, as it may over-rise and drip down the side of the pan. Yes, I”ve had LOTS of experience with this. You want it to be a nice round dome when you bake it (in the oven). I bought a light socket already wired to a cord and plug at a hardware store. It even has a dimmer switch already installed. This works well for me. Good luck, and let me know how it works for you! >From: benford@cts.com (Susan Benford) From: Bread-Bakers Archives: ftp.best.com/pub/reggie/archives/bread/recipe Recipe By : Worldwide Sourdoughs From Your Bread Machine
