Surface bubbles indicate over-proofed dough that will result in bread with large voids. If you bake before the dough gets to that point, the texture will be more consistent. But then I like chewy bread. -- Main.DougSundseth - 14 Nov 2006 --- Kneading is only necessary to develop the strands of gluten in the dough that makes bread chewy. Less kneading a more cake-like texture. I like to not knead my dough when making monkey-bread so it is more like a coffee cake. Gluten is also the reason you should fold rather than mix pancake or brownie batters. The more the mixing the tougher the result. -- Main.SeanPrice - 14 Nov 2006 --- <B>Doug</B> THANKS! I've spent years trying to figure out how to create "large voids"! -- Main.CatherineJohnson - 18 Nov 2006 --- <I>Gluten is also the reason you should fold rather than mix pancake or brownie batters.
