Scalding Technique Explained | How to Make Your Bread Last Longer

Scalding is an old European breadmaking method which is performed by mixing part of the flour in a recipe with boiling water and then letting that mix sit for several hours before adding it to the final dough. It is also adopted and widely used in Asia where it is known as Yudane.
What does scalding achieve? The main purpose of using this method is to extend the shelf life of bread. But it can also improve the texture of it especially when used alongside other ingredients. Mixing flour with boiling water essentially cooks it. Starch gelatinizes at a temperature above 65C (150F). During this process liquid is absorbed by the starch which makes it swell up.
The swollen starch can hold more water and it holds on to water a lot better. It allows for the hydration of the final dough to be raised while still achieving the same volume in the resulting bread. The more water is used the longer the bread will take to dry out. Another benefit of scalding is that it damages the protein in wheat flour weakening the gluten structure which makes the final dough looser and the bread lighter. Think of it as an egg or fat replacement method. It makes for a great alternative in vegan baking.

The temperature needed to gelatanize starch is above the temperature that will destroy the amylase enzymes. However the enzymes in the remaining raw flour may work on the geletanized starch from the scalded flour. A pate a choux method may result in better gelatinization (or just increase the portion of flour scalded).

So I made a white loaf using a slightly modified version of this recipe and holy dough balls, it is good bread! For the scald, it was a little dry so I moved an extra 10g of water to the scald. I added 4g of sugar and one egg yolk during the mix, then a cold bulk ferment for 5 hours, shaped and put in my bread tin and left overnight (12 hours) and I baked it in the morning at 430f for 20 mins with a steam bath. Turned upside down for a few mins to crisp the bottom and sides. It is the greatest thing I've ever baked. Hands down. The crust is crisp on the outside and chewy inside with a slight saltiness that I'm still thinking about. The crumb is soft and even, with good bite to it. Excellent toasting bread. So, so good.

I used to long period scald rye flower for a light rye bread some time ago, but not by keeping it warm. The dough would use half rye and half wheat flower so I would scald all the rye flower with all of the water intended for the dough and cover it up in a plastic container. The thermal mass of the water and the insulation of the plastic kept the temperature well above 65C for many hours. I would usually set the scalding early in the day and it'd be at a good baking temperature the next.

Just made a lovely loaf based on the linked recipe. Scalded the whole wheat (20% of total flour) with butter, salt, and some maltose. I bloomed my yeast with the rest of the water, and used 80% bread/strong flour. Did a short knead and then three light folds/kneads every 20 minutes and then chucked it in a Pullman loaf pan overnight. Straight in the fridge, and straight into a hot oven in the morning. A really successful loaf and the scald really helped with texture. The loaf was so moist I thought it wasn't done... It was.

@@ritabarsi6064 well then you are in a similar situation as we are ‘empty nesters’ with occasional extra bodies on the weekends. 1st things first, I do sift my fresh milled flour with a #50 flour sifter. This allows me to utilize the bran as an additive and not part of the total flour. I add just enough scalding water to the bran so that it is completely wet like a stiff paste but not soupy and then cover it & let it rest & cool. I add it in along with the levain & salt. Here is my basic recipe: 350 gr fresh milled sifted hard wheat flour 100 gr bread flour 328 gr scalding water 90 gr levain 11 gr salt Combine the flours and then add it to the scalding water & mix until there are no dry bits of flour, cover & let rest & cool for 1 hr. Add the scalded bran, levain & salt & mix/knead until it is smooth, this usually takes me about 5-10 min, cover & rest for 30 min. then perform a set of stretch & folds, repeat the rest then stretch & fold cycle 2 more times. Then shape, place in whatever vessel you use to proof it in, I then place it immediately in the fridge until whatever time I am able to bake it the next day, however, I have left it in the fridge for as long as 3 days when we had a family emergency come up & it baked up beautifully & stayed just as fresh as if it had been baked earlier.

Thank you for covering this, I suggested this topic in the yudane/tangzhong video :) Keeping the scald at 65 is key, actually! It's not for better gelatinization, it's to allow the enzymes in the flour time to actually break down the starch (you'd add like a spoon of the flour to the scald after the rest of the flour is well mixed with the water; alternatively, you can use diastatic malt for very efficient starch hydrolysis, but typically whole grain rye is scalded without it, while white flour has much less enzymes and malt is added). After 2-3 hours incubation the scald becomes much more liquidy and sweet. This is what will promote the fermentation, since the scald will be rich in maltose. In professional large scale recipes this is not done purposefully, simply because they use much larger quantities of the scald, and it simply cools down way slower. Also, try adding the caraway seeds into the scald! Or any other spices you are adding. Hot water releases their aroma better I think. Keeping it at 65 for hours is a little complicated and depends on what equipment you have... I've done it just in the oven set to a very low temperature measured with and external thermometer (since 5C error can affect the result a lot). Others use an instant pot, a sous vide setup, or any other way to control temperature in that range. Even just a thermos works well enough I think, btw.

Just as a side note.. 62-65°C is the sweetspot when you are brewing beer to get the most fermentable sugars released from the barley. Somewhere around 70-72 you get sugars that yeast don't like, but it adds sweetness. If you are doing smaller scaldings, try heating a big pan (3-5L) with water to 65, take the water you need for the scald and then put a container in the pan. I'm used to a insulated 35L boiler and it's dropping perhaps 2°C/hour ouside (15-20°C). Try measuring your drop over an hour to see if this might work for yuo. I would say that 1-1.5h should be enough, cramming out that tiny extra ammount isn't worth the extra energy it takes to keep it warm.

Charlie: I have a dehydrator with adjustable temperatures and it would keep the scald at 150 degrees F or 65 degrees C for as long as you would like. Although, I would recommend covering it up to stop it from drying out. I use ceramic unglazed tiles heated to 250 degrees F and placed on a thick bath towel, that I place in the bottom of my coolers when I travel to other locations with heated foods to keep them warm. This technique will keep the food warm for several hours. I see no reason why this would not also work for keeping the scald warm for several hours. I would place a second towel on top of the heated tile to avoid over heating the scald. I also use this technique in my bread baskets when serving large dinners to keep my breads warm.

Then I add all the other ingredients and knead. If I want to break steps up, doing a yudane earlier, I'll throw it in the refrigerator for hours up to 3 days. One can do a poolish and yundane at the same time, and then let them sit at room temp or in the fridge together for more flavor, then combine and knead.

Some steamers you can program a temperature (up to 100c) and timer. Very handy to maintain 65c for a couple of hours.

In the American south, part of the cornmeal is often scalded. It makes the finished product moister.

temperature controlled proofing can be done in the bowls in a sous vide bath system, I strongly suggest using a plastic lined cooler, just put some bricks in the bottom in the water as support and get it to temp

Hi Charles! It's me again, complaining 😂😂! So, being as I'm living here in eastern Europe, central Europe, according to Lukashenka.... 🤔🤣🤣 I watched this video and thought! Maybe if I use this in conjunction with the Russian 14% protein flour, and follow up with your other tuition, maybe it will be really interesting. You so often encourage all of your devotees to experiment and report back! I scalded 200g of flour with 300g of water! Yes I know... It's a lot but this Russian flour doesn't conform to European recipes, as you suggested! So 12 hours later, I added 100g of warm water with 1g of dried yeast. Let it start fermentation and after it trebled I popped it in the fridge overnight. I added 80 g of water with 7g of dried yeast and popped it into my Kenwood with an egg yolk and 380g of flour. 5 minutes later I added my salt, 7g and after another 5 minutes let it rest for 1 hour. Knocked it back and left it another hour .. 😃 Shaped my rolls.... 15 off and let them rise for 2 hours. Set my oven to top and bottom for 200C and baked them for 18 minutes! Unbelievable results.... Each roll was 80g after shaping but after they cooled.... The lightest sandwich rolls you could ever imagine 🤗! Thrilled! Thank you so much for encouraging us all to experiment, not just follow a recipe! You're the "Boss"! 👌👏

Just learning about proper bread making by watching your videos. Am wondering if scalding could or maybe should be used IN ADDITION to a preferment. You are an amazing teacher. Thank you!

@ChainBaker 5 ай бұрын

It will work just fine. The only problem is that there may not be enough water for both 😅 I sometimes do a scald and then cold ferment the whole dough after mixing it up once the scald has cooled down. It achieves the same result as pre-ferment.

Just discovered your channel. Really enjoying your content! Would love to see some tips on how to adjust baking techniques when in high altitude + dry climates. I’m in Colorado here in the US and there’s really not much on this topic on KZfaq.

I have not had any experience with higher altitude baking, so I can't add much. I'm basically at sea level here in London, UK.

I have put eastern european bread scald made according to your recipe in sous vide machine for 6h and 12h respectively, and compared them to the same bread made with 12h room temp scalded bread. The 6h scald produced the best softest bread, which was almost like freshly baked 2 weeks after baking.. no kidding, the last piece was as fenomenal as the first. But the other two had huge problems in that regard.. they ware simply touch and didn't give much. The 12h scaleded bread was firmer, but seemed same as the unscaleded bread... but that might be due to the using a frozen potato... yeah I changed the source of potatoes in that batch...

I've used Tangzhong and Yudane for White and White/WW and WW breads and it has never failed to deliver the claimed benefits. I will try this on my next Rye bread bake. I know of nothing in baking breads, which is as reliable in achieving the claimed changes in bread.

I’ve noticed the difference water temperature makes on roti dough (made with atta). Tepid water results in a much softer roti even when used in the same ratio against room temperature water. Would love to see a video doing this comparison. Another method I would like to see added to the test is Bong Eats Roti recipe. They scald the atta flour.

Oh when I was making milk bread instead of cooking it on the stove I just pored the hot water on the flour to get a paste. Didn't know that was it's own separate technique. Nothing is new under the sun.

Maybe an immersion circulator would be best for keeping the temp at 65C? Putting the dough in a water tight zip loc (maybe a freezer bag) or something should work well enough. I haven't tried it so I'm not sure how well it would actually work but it might be worth a try

@nebelnes Жыл бұрын

Holding the scald at 64C is another beast altogether. In the matter of fact to take the benifit out of it you have to add about 20% of the flour you used in the scald as raw flour as scalding kill enzymes in the flour. So enzymes in the untreated flour will convert starches in the scald into sugars to the point that the scald becomes really sweet. Very similar process that beermakers do with the malt. This is then used mostly in rye baking that calls for over 70% of rye. You wi have to use sour dough starter or other means to acidify the dough to prevent sticky bread.

I've been preparing scalds with course flour (and even steel cut oats) in advance with recycled glass cans with wide mouths and metal lids. I also add the bread spices, sweeteners (treacle, malt, molasses, etc.), fat and salt. I add extra water to give it more of a porrige consistency, which is easier to integrate, and adjust the additional water accordingly. It's a simple trick: mix the ingredients in a bowl, boil the amount of water you need, pour a little into an old salsa or spagetti sauce jar, add the ingredients then pour the remaining boiling water on top and gently shake. You can also mix the ingredients directly in the jar, just make sure you stir it out to prevent lumps on the bottom. Let cool on counter and then refrigerate. The jar will reseal itself and can be stored for weeks. If you follow proper canning sterilization procedures, you could likely keep at room temperature.
