Final Dough:
*To know when your dough is developed, use one or more of these methods as your criteria:
The dough is smooth: in the beginning, your dough will look like a messy lump but will gradually smooth out as you knead it. When it is smooth and slightly sticky to touch then it is developed.
The dough is clear: pull off a small ball of dough and stretch it between your fingers (as pictured above). Well-developed gluten will allow the dough to stretch into a thin film without breaking. If holes appear or the dough ‘breaks’ then you must keep kneading.
The dough holds its shape: when you lift the ball of dough off the bench, if it holds its shape, the gluten is tight and strong. If it sags down between your fingers, keep kneading.
For final proof (before going in the oven) use the ‘finger’ test: poke the dough firmly with your finger. If the dough falls back it’s over-proofed, if it springs back it’s ready to put into the oven.
