The correct way to add water to the proofing box is one of the key steps in making delicious pastries. First, pour the appropriate amount of water into the proofing box's liquid container, ensuring the water level is suitable for pastry making. Next, add flour to the water, then add more water as needed, and stir with a mixer until the flour is completely dissolved, forming a batter. When pouring the batter into the proofing box, be careful not to pour in too much to avoid overflowing. After pouring, cover the proofing box and let the batter ferment. The fermentation time will vary depending on factors such as room temperature and humidity, usually taking several hours to overnight.
Once fermented, remove the batter from the proofing box and spread it on a baking sheet, ready for the next step. When using, you can brush the surface of the batter with a dessert topping such as butter or jam to add flavor. Then, place the prepared batter in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) and bake for 15-20 minutes. Now you can enjoy your delicious homemade pastries!
When using a proofing box, it's important to note that the amount of water needed will vary depending on the specific pastry recipe. Therefore, please adjust the water amount according to the recipe to achieve the best results. Also, the humidity inside the proofing box greatly affects the fermentation process; maintaining appropriate humidity is crucial.
Finally, please ensure there are no foreign objects inside the proofing box to avoid affecting fermentation. After fermentation, remove the dough promptly to prevent over-fermentation, which can negatively impact the texture of the pastries. We wish you all the best in making your pastries and hope you enjoy them!
