How to get rhodes rolls to rise? ›

Dough will thaw and rise faster if it is in a warm spot in your home. Try putting your pan on top the refrigerator or in direct sunlight. You also might try putting on top a heating pad or in the oven with just the light on.

Prepare rolls as directed in step 1, then thaw in refrigerator for at least 8 hours. Rolls may need to continue to rise at room temperature for 1 to 2 hours if not double in size. Continue to step 3 for baking.

Speed Thaw Method – Use with Caution

Spray pan with cooking spray. Place frozen dough in pan, and cover with sprayed plastic wrap to keep it from sticking to the rolls while rising. Preheat oven to 200°F. Then turn the oven off.

So what do you do if you forget to thaw the dinner rolls the night before, and you're getting close to serving time? Preheat the oven to 225 degrees F. When the oven reaches this temperature, take the bread from the freezer and place it on a baking sheet. Place the bread in the oven on a middle rack.

Add more yeast, blend in the starter, or knead in more flour to help initiate rising. Dough that has expired yeast, too much salt, all-purpose or cake flour, or antifungal spices like cinnamon might have trouble rising.

Rather than do that, I would look to extending fermentation if your dough isn't rising quickly. Or just go ahead and bake your bread.

You can also put hot water in a heat-safe dish and place it on the floor of a cold oven (or on a lower shelf). The steam and heat from the water will help the temperature rise just enough that the yeast is active. The steam will also assist in keeping the surface of the dough moist so it will stretch as it rises.

If the rolls or bread are browning too quickly, cover them with foil (shiny side up).

BAKING DIRECTIONS

Place frozen rolls evenly on pan and cover with plastic wrap sprayed with cooking spray to keep from sticking to rolls while rising. BAKE – Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Carefully remove plastic wrap. Bake 15-20 minutes, until golden brown.

Yeast is an active ingredient that can be damaged and deactivated by being thawed and refrozen. So keep Rhodes frozen solid until you are ready to bake it. Yeast is the most active when it is fresh. For the best baking experience use Rhodes within 30 days of buying.

When using the Proof feature, the halogen oven light is illuminated to provide the warm temperature needed to help yeast rise during the proofing process. On most convection models, both the convection fan and oven light come on.

Heat. Most leavening agents cause dough to rise gradually at room temperature. In moister dough, warmer ambient temperature speeds up the process. For faster rising, place dough over a pan of warm water in a warm oven; or microwave once or twice on low power for up to 25 seconds.

During baking, the dough continues to rise for a short while due to the steam generated and the continued action of the yeast.

The optimum rising temperature for most doughs is around 22 °C to 25 °C or 72 °F to 77 °F. At this temperature, the yeast or sourdough starter is sufficiently active to raise bread, pizza or bun dough. At higher temperatures, the raising agent is too active and the dough does not have enough time to develop.

For best results, use a non-porous, tight fitting cover such as a saucepan lid, bowl cover or even a sheet pan laid on top of the bowl, weighted down with something. Also make sure your bowl is deep enough for the dough to double in size without hitting the cover and impeding its rise.
