can you actually put dough in it to rise or is it only for ornimental use

We've never used it that way; I don't know. We don't know what kind of varnish is on it.

I would say it is more ornamental than functional for bread rising. It is too large to be effective that way.

I use it for decorative use only. I would not use it for food, but not sure how it is processed

I believe it is for ornamental use only. That is what I use it for. I put dozens of crepe paper easter eggs in it with two white candles and it was beautiful! I'd use a glass bowl to put dough in. Wipe the bowl with a little olive oil and it will be easier to get the dough out after it rises.

yes, my bread machine set on the dough setting includes one rise. At the end of the cycle, reset it on the dough setting and let it run about a minute to punch down the dough. Remove the dough from the machine, form it into a log that fits the pan, then let it rise one more time until it is domed at least 2 inches high over the pan, then into the oven at about 350* until an instant read thermometer reads 190* for most recipes.

Depends on the consistency of the dough. You may have to help some of it into the corners. Try to keep the dough level.

Yes you can do dough only , Did not last me long and I take care of my appliances. Just totally stopped working .

I haven't, but see no reason for not doing so. Based on the size, I'd use a little over 2lb (1kg) of dough. You'll likely need to increase the baking time a little. That implies you may need to lay some aluminum foil over the top for the last ten minutes or so, to avoid over-browning the crust.Unlike the previous poster, I see no benefit to using the lift-out trivet. The pan is coated and a little oil or shortening should make for easy removal of the loaf.

It will make dough for bagels according to the literature. I plan to use it for just dough for other recipes.

I believe it might be a good thing to use for fondant. I haven't rolled that out, but I have pizza dough on an uneven surface with no problems.

No you cannot. It will rise too high and then fall due to lack of space. The dual pans will only fit a 1 lb. loaf in each side.

My wife has used it to easily make salsa, soup, green smoothies, and nut butter. She hasn't tried to make dough with it yet.

I would say that if your filling is contained within the pastry dough, that it can be used. Keep in mind that the pan is perforated and if your filling leaks it can get messy.

If you have a bread making machine, then it self rises in the machine. If you make it by hand you want it to rise in a warm spot, not a drafty spot.

Yes you can. The machine will knead the ingredients/dough. Just follow the recipe to add ingredients in order and the instructions via the machine itself. Hope that helps.

I have never tried using the bags for that purpose and don't know if the dough would come through the 1/2 opening. I think the dough would probably be to thick. But you could also cut the bag opening larger to make it work.

I wouldn't recommend it for heavy doughs. I would use the Kitchen Aid stand mixer for that.

I have not used this for dough. I don't believe it would do a good job of bread dough or cookie dough. It is probably too small for dough also.

Yes it can. Making the dough correctly or buying good dough is very important.

Yes it is, it is dried, and rendered inactive. So it will not work to make bread rise, nutritional yeast is high in protein though, and is part of the mushroom family. Often it is used to make a vegetarian of vegan meal healthier, at least as far as I can tell.
