You don't need to punch it, just pushing it down a bit will be enough. Turn it on on a lightly floured board and knead it just a bit and then shape it into a loaf. Put the seam side down and put it in the pan to rise again. When it doubles in size again, bake it.

What is punching in baking production?

I've seen this term used making bread.. After the dough has risen and its all bubbly, it usually calls to "punch down" the dough meaning to punch any bubbles out of it so its easier to work with and you won't have holes in the bread once you bake it. You actually punch the dough, while its still in the bowl or when you take it out of the bowl.


How does yeast rise and why?

Yeast grows in the bread dough, eating the sugars, and producing (among other things) carbon dioxide waste. Since the carbon dioxide is a gas, it gets trapped in the dough, forming pockets of gas -- the holes in bread. Depending upon the type of bread one is making, you may punch down the dough -- net effect is you end up with smaller pockets of gas, this is typical of sandwich breads. If you do not, you will end up with larger pockets -- typical of "French bread". Cooler temperatures will require a longer time to get the bread to rise. You can read more in many books on bread

What does punch mean?

"Punching down" generally means responding to someone "below" your status level. It generally backfires, as it places more notice on the comments of the person "below", giving them increased credibility. It means that the person "below" has struck a nerve, causing the person "above" to respond to someone/something that they normally will ignore. In doing this, it can make observers wonder why the comment struck such a nerve. If you are making bread, it means to punch the dough after it has been left to rise, which causes it to collapse. This results in a bread with a finer texture (fewer large bubbles).


What does punch down mean?

Punching down in baking refers to the process of gently deflating risen dough by pressing down on it with your fists or hands. This helps redistribute the yeast and promotes even rising during a second proofing period before baking. It also helps develop gluten structure and texture in the dough.

How do you make bubble bread?

Make a standard bread dough, knead, and allow it to rise in a warm, dry place for 30 minutes (cover the bowl with a tea towel). After 30 minutes, punch it down, and allow to rise again for another 30 minutes. After the second rise, get a straw and insert it into the dough. Blow air into the draw, creating little bubbles in the dough. Repeat approximately 300 times, and then bake as directed by the dough recipe you're using.
