(PHS) Mrs. Bigley's Pastries class has been learning about the magic of yeast. Students learned the fundamental principles of yeast activation. They carefully measured and mixed their dough, feeling the elastic texture develop as gluten formed. The class explored the importance of proofing, observing how the dough doubled in size as the yeast produced carbon dioxide, creating airy pockets within. The students now understand how to make a dough rise, and how to create a delicious sweet treat.
