It got punched down eight times. I had some "hooch" to pour out of the container when I finally took the dough out, but it was fine. It probably could have kept going for a few more days. The bred had a very interesting flavor since it was basically sourdough be the time I baked it. The crumb was very open and the crust was very glossy.<br /><br />If you are really worried about using a dough that you think has expired, you could try feeding it like you feed a sourdough starter. That would be an interesting experiment.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5492055.post-26212072025019615672008-11-11T22:17:00.000-05:002008-11-11T22:17:00.000-05:00Glad it worked out-I don't know that much about ye...Glad it worked out-I don't know that much about yeast, but I just assumed, from making beer, that as long as they have something to eat, they'll keep cranking out (unless, in the case of beer, the alcohol gets too high and they die).<BR/>Interestingly, I made a few pizzas last week with expired instant yeast. They didn't really rise that well in the fridge, but turned out fine in the oven.Andrewhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03286748406979546523noreply@blogger.com
