Abstract
A method is provided for producing bread of a good quality from dough preserved in a frozen state. In this method the dough is stretched while subjecting it to vibrations so that the dough can be stretched without imparting pressure exceeding the yield point of its elasticity. Thus the gluten network structure is unharmed. Then the dough is frozen for preserving. After a desired period of preservation the dough is baked. Since the dough does not become deflated, but expands further during the baking step, puffy and tasty bread results.
