Window Pane photo
I was able to get a nice photo of the "window pane" of the dough I mixed for yesterday's bake. Questions about this sign of complete gluten development come up from time to time, so I thought others might enjoy seeing this.
This is a yeasted, enriched dough. It was machine mixed in a KitchenAid Professional at speed 1 for 2 minutes. Then the salt was added, and it was mixed at speed 1 for 2 more minutes. The paddle was changed to the dough hook. Then it was mixed at Speed 2 for 9 minutes.
It is the "Medium Vienna Dough" from "Inside the Jewish Bakery." I use this dough for sandwich rolls.
Happy baking!

Interesting mixing routine. For enriched I do 4 minutes on speed 1 then another 4 on the highest speed. Seems to work every time but now I am kinda interested to try your less aggressive approach.
A picture was sorely needed. Txfarmer had a wonderful series of pics but I believe they are gone. THank you for posting this!
Delicious looking buns.
