In cooking, proofing (also called proving) is a step in the preparation of yeast bread and other baked goods in which the dough is allowed to rest and rise a final time before baking. During this rest period, yeast ferments the dough and produces gases, thereby leavening the dough.
Cooking with alcohol means using alcohol in the preparation of food either as an ingredient, a cooking fuel, or for visual display. Wine is frequently used as an ingredient for its acidic properties, its bitter tannins, and its fruit components. Beer and liqueurs are also commonly used as alcoholic ingredients.
In surface filtration, the wine passes through a thin membrane. Running the wine parallel to the filter surface, known as cross-flow filtration, will minimize the filter clogging. The finest surface filtration, microfiltration, can sterilize the wine by trapping all yeast and, optionally, bacteria, and so is often done immediately prior to ...

Brettanomyces A wine spoilage yeast that produces taints in wine commonly described as barnyard or band-aids. Brix/Balling A measurement of the dissolved sucrose level in a wine Brouillis
The best bread proofing container is a glass bowl. If you mark the outside of the bowl when you put in the dough ball, you’ll easily be able to tell when it has doubled in size.
Most yeast bread recipes require an 8½” x 4½” pan. This helps them achieve that great height and square size that’s so good for sandwiches. This helps them achieve that great height and ...
Flambéing reduces the alcohol content of the food modestly. In one experimental model, about 25% of the alcohol was boiled off. The effects of the flames are also modest: although the temperature within the flame may be quite high (over 500 °C), the temperature at the surface of the pan is lower than that required for a Maillard browning reaction or for caramelization.
