A strawberry allergy is not the only thing to worry about with strawberries. Besides the Fra a1 allergen, the strawberry also makes chemicals called oxalates and salicylates .
The minimal alcohol product burns off during the baking process, and the yeast dies also with the heat. The ideal temperature for yeast growth is 100 to 115 degrees F., but for leavening purposes, the ideal temperature is 80 to 95 degrees F. If the yeast grows too quickly, it will produce large bubble pockets in the end product. Yeast begins to die at 120 degrees F. So, it is important to let your yeast dough rise in a spot where the temperature is regulated. One-half an ounce of yeast will raise 4 cups of flour in about 1-1/2 to 2 hours, under ideal conditions. You should also proof your yeast to be sure it is viable before using in a recipe.
Thereâs a reason for it. If youâre proofing yeast, you want that step to happen relatively quickly, so it makes sense to use water thatâs the optimum temperature for the yeast. But what is the optimum temperature? And is it the same for all yeast? For active dry yeast, the water temperature should be between 105 and 110 degrees for proofing. While 95 degrees is the best temperature for yeast to multiply, thatâs not quite warm enough for proofing active dry yeast. It needs the extra warmth to dissolve and become active. At cooler temperatures, the yeast doesnât wake up as well, and it can release a substance that can interfere with gluten formation. For fresh (cake) yeast, 95-100 degrees is what youâre looking for during proofing.
