What is the purpose of scalding milk for yeast rolls?
Scalding milk used in bread making was done because historically it was necessary to kill some of the bacteria present in milk before introducing the desired yeast, because the milk is then kept warm to encourage the growth of the yeast, and any undesirable micro-organisms would also grow in these conditions.Modern pasteurized, sealed and refrigerated milk is less likely to require this treatment.Scaling involves heating the milk until it is about to start boiling, then removing it from the heat.
What is a suitable substitute for yeast nutrient in bread making?

What liquid increases nutritive values of yeast doughs?
Anything you want, provided it does not kill the yeast and consists mostly of water. Salty liquids will not work well because salt in large quantities will kill your yeast. But milk, consomme, fat-free broth, left-over soup, apple sauce, milk, curds, virtually anything will work. Be careful of the oil or fat content of what you add--bread will not rise well if excessively oily.Consider adding: eggs, tofu water etc.
Why is skim milk sugar not fermentable by yeast?

What is Hard Lean Dough?
A lean dough is a dough that has very little or no fat content. An example of this would be a baguette. Also, a comparison between 'lean' doughs and 'enriched' doughs might be of help: ... 'lean' doughs, by nature, are made up of the 'essential' four (4) ingredient-elements necessary to any bread dough's formula (e.g.: baguette): 1) flour 2) water 3) yeast 4) salt 'enriched' doughs, by comparison, integrate all that 'lean' doughs require, plus enriching sources of shortening(s) and sweetener(s) ... possibly one or more of the following list (e.g.: challah): 5) butter 6) oil 7) milk 8) cream 9) eggs

How do you dissolve dry yeast in water?
Your recipe should indicate where and how to add the yeast, but yeast does not dissolve well in milk (if at all). Yeast forms into large clumps when mixed directly with milk and will take much longer to activate. I made this mistake the first time I tried to substitute milk for water when making bread. The usual way of adding yeast to such a recipe is to fully dissolve the yeast in 1/4 cup of warm water (about 110 degrees Fahrenheit). If the water is not warm enough, it won't activate the yeast and if it's too warm, it can kill the yeast. One of my colleagues proofs the yeast in the usual way (1/4 cup warm water, 1 tsp sugar, 1 tsp yeast), then adds the rest of the yeast to the water, mixes the dry ingredients with the milk for the recipe, then adds the water-yeast mixture to that. He claims that it works perfectly. Of course, if you use 1/4 cup of water to dissolve your yeast, subtract 1/4 cup of milk from the recipe unless otherwise indicated. And also make sure you're using the proper yeast for whatever it is you are baking.
How can I ensure successful proofing of yeast in milk for my baking recipe?
To ensure successful proofing of yeast in milk for your baking recipe, warm the milk to around 110-115F, add a pinch of sugar to feed the yeast, sprinkle the yeast on top, and let it sit for about 5-10 minutes until it becomes frothy and bubbly. This indicates that the yeast is active and ready to use in your recipe.
What liquid makes yeast active?

What does scalded milk do for a recipe?
Most likely the recipe has yeast in it. Keeping the ingredients warm helps the yeast work. For other things, it would help the milk to blend with the other ingredients if there is shortening in the mix the milk is added to.
