Want to make the fluffiest bread possible? Well there’s a technique for that called starch gelatinization. Based on the Chinese and Japanese Tangzhong and Yudane respectively, this involves breaking down starch’s symmetry, pushing water between amylose and amylopectin, using high temperature to gelatinize the starch before putting it into the dough. But don’t just take our word, we made 3 loaves of bread to put the science to the test. | Reactions
