#36: What Is Gluten? And How Does It Work In Doughs And In Our Bodies?


Listen Later

In this short today, gluten is a protein compound stored in some cereals' seeds, such as wheat, barley, and rye. This protein compound is necessary for the germination and growth of the plant's bud.  Gluten proteins, like rubber bands, tend to spring back into their original form. 

This elasticity in gluten is an obvious problem when it comes to shaping dough;  for instance, pizza dough with too much elasticity will creep back into a ball when stretched out on the pizza pan. This is where proofing comes in.
