I have long wanted to try the recipe for drowned yeast dough. Intriguing name and interesting process! I'm not used to working with live yeast, so I used dry yeast. I calculated the quantity based on the author’s comments. The dough came out great, a fluffy cap rose up! After combining all the liquid ingredients, sift the flour into a bowl. It took me more. I kneaded the dough until it stopped sticking to my hands and the table. Next, I poured cold filtered water into the pan and lowered the bun into it. At first I watched the dough, but then I left the kitchen for about 20 minutes. During this time, the bun floated to the surface. It's wet). I immediately put it on the table, dusted with flour, and kneaded it a little. After that, I formed a pie (with cabbage) and left it to rise for 15 minutes. The dough came out very well! And in the oven it was simply bursting! Therefore, I recommend initially taking a larger form. I didn’t expect such an effect, but I like the method of drowning the dough! This tastes like wonderful homemade baked goods!

Foster, a very interesting recipe with drowning the dough, but why drown it anyway? Is this really why the quality of the pies will improve? Thank you very much for the recipe!
