The recipes here describe what the dough should feel like and how it should behave when poked, because those cues survive a different flour and a colder kitchen, and a stopwatch does not.Hydration is the other lever. A wetter dough gives an open crumb and sticks to everything; a drier one is easy to handle and tighter inside. Where a recipe asks for steam in the first minutes, that is what makes a crust crack and shine rather than set soft and pale.For sweet doughs that use the same proofing logic, see Donuts. For something to serve it with, Cozy Soups and Stews, and for the morning table, Easy Breakfast.
