FAQ:
Q: Can I use fresh yeast instead of dry yeast?
A: Yes, substitute 24 g fresh yeast for 8 g dry yeast, adjusting the proofing time accordingly.
Q: How do I know when the oil is the right temperature?
A: Use a thermometer for accuracy or drop a small piece of dough in; it should sizzle and rise to the surface quickly.
