Yeast dough is the basis for any type of home baking - from airy pies with filling to delicious buns.

However, sometimes housewives face the problem that the preparation does not rise for some reason.

Culinary expert of HERE NEWS, cook and fourth-class baker Yulia Arkhipova is ready to tell you about the main problems with yeast dough.

Why yeast dough does not rise

Yeast dough may not rise for several reasons.

One of the most common mistakes is using low-quality yeast. If you have a packet of yeast lying around at home that has been there since time immemorial, there is a good chance that the product has already expired.

Ignoring the recipe proportions also leads to the dough not rising. The reason may be either a lack of yeast itself or an excess of flour, which makes the dough rubbery.

You can also forget about delicious and airy baked goods if you unknowingly leave yeast dough in the cold. Yeast is a heat-loving microorganism and reproduces only in warmth.
