Tip I Found Regarding Bread Rising

I have tried many many bread recipes over the last few weeks and ALL have turned out disasters. Not one of them rised like they should have and they were basically all blobs of hot dough in the end.

I found a tip from someone that they blend the dough (hand mixer) for 4 minutes after it's all mixed together. I tried it this time.....it wasn't easy, but my bread is in the oven and it has risen up to the top of the pan!!! When mixing, it will climb up the mixer and I was constantly pushing it down with my finger, but it looks like it has worked! Let's just hope my mix up with potato starch/flour doesn't ruin my loaf :)

Thanks for the hint. I have been having the problem with my bread not rising too. Last time I mixed it for longer by chance and it did rise better. I thought it was because I added more liquid, but now I will try mixing it for longer again. I was getting tired of eating that dense bread.

Another thing to try when making bread is to not let it rise too long. Many recipes call for rising time up to 45 minutes. The makeup of gluten-free bread is different, so many bakers will tell you that 10-20 minutes is all you need. I never let mine go more than 20. Also, make sure your yeast water is the right temperature. I didn't realize until I bought a candy thermometer and tested it in my water one day that I was overheating my yeast (probably why my bread didn't get big enough!). Hope your bread turned out great!

I have been working on rise in my bread for 6 months. I have bought professional yeast. (Not sure it is much different) I freeze my yeast to keep it fresh.

I do let my bread rise for 70 - 75 min. That is how long it takes to get to the top of the pan. When I let it rise for less time, no rise. but that is just me.

I have been having difficulty with it falling after i remove it from the oven. How heart breaking. I believe that is a liquid to baking time ratio and have been adjusting with some success.

I think I will take the suggestion on water temperature and buy a candy thermometer.

When I bake bread, I put the ingredients together in my kitchenaid and let 'er rip for 4 min. on high. I burned up my hand mixer doing this. I don't let it rise as long as reg bread - I'v found gluten-free bread can fall if you let it rise to long. And don't forget to use xanthan gum.

I do the same thing with my mixer. I totally burned out my hand mixer on gluten-free bread too :)

If you get a thermometer, get the kind that is for quick checking...I forgot the name, sorry...you can stick it in water, bread, turkey, ham, etc.

Description: its the length of a pen and its pointed on one end and has a round dial on the other end the size of a watch face. Made of metal. It could be called "fast" or "quick read" thermometer. I use it for everything.

Hey, thanks! How silly am I? I have that. I was thinking the big glass one. I can be so silly! I am off to try yet again for the best bread ever. Today I will try a shorter rise and hope for rise while it cooks. Yesterdays fell in the middle while cooking. Go figure.

I let it rise for one hour and then it rises more while it cooks (thank goodness!)

Here's yet another method, lol.

I beat my bread on high for 3 1/2 minutes (I got that from Bette Hagman). I also preheat the oven to 200 degrees while I'm making the bread. I put the pan in the oven and turn the oven off. It takes 15-20 minutes for the bread to get almost to the top of the pan. Then I turn the oven to 400 degrees and bake for another 20 minutes.

I was recently having some trouble with sinking bread. I had tried to get the bottle of yeast and was keeping it in the refrigerator, as directed. I switched back to the packets and was good to go again. I've also had it fall when it rose to much in the oven.

I went to a gluten-free cooking demo this past weekend, and the guy there said he heats up a pan of water in a glass dish in his microwave, then puts the bread on a rack over the water and leaves it in there until it rises. I haven't tried it yet, but it seems like a good idea.

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      By sleuth · Posted

      Thanks for your response.  Everything you mentioned he is and has been doing.  Tobacco is not the same as nicotine.  Nicotine, in the form of a patch, does not cause gastrointestinal irritation.  Smoking does. He is not smoking.  Please do your research before stating false information. Dr. Paul Newhouse has been doing research on nicotine the last 40 years at Vanderbilt University Medical Center.

      Fighting for a name

      Im so frustrated and still getting the run around trying to reprove my celiac disease which my past primary ignored for 25 years.I understand that theres a ray of medical that doctors are limited too but not listening and telling the patient ( me) that im not as sensitive as I think and NOT celiac!Correction Mr white coat its not what I think but for cause and affect and past test that are not sticking in my medical records.I get sick violently with foods consumed, not eating the foods will show Im fabulous. After many blood draws and going through doctors I have the HLA- DQ2 positive which I read in a study that Iran conducted that the severity in celiac is in that gene.Im glutenfree and dealing with related issues which core issue of celiac isn't addressed. My skin, right eye, left leg diagestive issues affected. I have high blood pressure because im in pain.Im waisting my time on trying to reprove that Im celiac which is not a disease I want, but unfortunately have.It  has taken over my life personally and professionally. How do I stop getting medically gaslight and get the help needed to bounce back if I ever do bounce back to normal? I thought I was in good care with " celiac specialist " but in her eyes Im good.Im NOT.Sibo positive, IBS, Chronic Fatigue just to name a few and its all related to what I like to call a ghost disease ( celiac) since doctors don't seem to take it seriously.

      @Martha Mitchell, your reaction to the lens implant with gluten sounds like it could be an allergic reaction rather than a celiac reaction. It is possible for a celiac to be also allergic to gluten as it is a protein component in wheat, barley and rye.

      Scott I also have different symptoms than most people. It affects me bad. Stomach ache, headache, nauseous, heart racing, whole body shaking, can't walk then my throat starts to close. It attacks my nervous system. The only thing that saves me is a 1/2 of Xanax...it calms down my nervous system
