DONUT

  1. Place the Water, YRD Donut Mix and then Yeast into a mixer fitted with a dough hook.

  2. Mix on low speed for 1 minute. Scrape down.

  3. Mix on high speed for 10-12 minutes or until dough reaches peak development.

  4. Aim for finished dough temperature of 27-30°C.

  5. Rest for 5 minutes before processing/sheeting.

  6. Sheet out the dough to approximately 10mm thickness. Ensure to shake down the dough to reduce tension in the dough, relax the dough, as this will reduce shrinkage.

  7. Cut donuts as required and place into proofer.

    Please note: the dough is soft and fairly sticky to touch.

  8. We used a 16cm cake ring to cut the desired size for the Lángos dough and proofed for 23 minutes.

PROOFER SETTING

  1. Temperature: 30°C.

  2. Relative humidity: 80%.

  3. Proof time 20-25 minutes or until the proof height is 29-31mm.

FRYING

  1. Allow the proofed donut pizza to rest for 5 minutes on bench before frying at 190°C for 1 minute per side.

TOPPING

  1. Spread one side of the fried Lángos with sour cream.

  2. Top with your favourite savoury toppings and serve warm or at room temperature.
