Abstract
A process for preparing dough pieces is provided. In the process, fermented dough receives repeated pressure for stretching, which pressure is given by a pressing device. However, through this process, the network structure of gel is not broken. Thus, a further fermentation step, such as an intermediate fermentation step or a final fermentation step, can be eliminated.
