+ 2 tbsp sugar
+ 1 tsp salt
+ 4 cups of flour (added gradually)
+ 1/4 cup of oil (added towards the end)
* **Instructions:**
1. Warm liquid, add yeast, sugar, and salt. Mix until yeast dissolves.
2. Gradually add flour to achieve a viscous consistency.
3. Add oil and knead with hands until dough is elastic and soft.
4. Let dough rise in a warm, covered environment for 1-2 hours (depending on temperature and yeast freshness).
* **Usage:** Suitable for various sweet and savory baked goods, such as pies, cheesecakes, pizzas, and more.
Here are the key facts extracted from the text, each with a number and in short sentence form, excluding opinions:
1. **Liquid requirements**: 2 glasses of warm liquid (milk, sour milk, curdled milk, kefir, or water) are needed for the dough.
2. **Liquid temperature**: The liquid must be warm, not hot, with room temperature or refrigerated liquid warmed up (e.g., 20 seconds in the microwave).
3. **Yeast types**: Both dry and fresh yeast can be used.
4. **Yeast storage**: Dry yeast needs to be stored in the refrigerator to last a long time.
5. **Yeast activation**: Yeast is added to the warm liquid and mixed until almost dissolved.
6. **Sugar and salt additions**: 2 tablespoons of sugar and 1 teaspoon of salt are added to the mixture.
7. **Flour requirements**: Approximately 4 cups of flour are needed, with the exact amount depending on the flour's viscosity.
8. **Flour addition method**: Flour is added gradually, sifted to incorporate air, with the option to adjust to achieve the right dough viscosity.
9. **Oil addition**: A quarter of the dough's volume in oil can be added without affecting the dough's texture.
10. **Kneading**: The dough is kneaded by hand until it becomes elastic and soft, similar to the touch of a female breast.
11. **Dough resting time**: The dough rises for about 1-2 hours, depending on the liquid's temperature and home temperature.
12. **Factors affecting rising time**: Temperature at home, yeast freshness, and liquid temperature influence the dough's rising speed.
13. **Dough storage during rising**: The dough can be left in a covered bowl, a warm microwave (for 10 seconds), or a large bag, tied and left at room temperature.
