In my perusal of bread recipes and tips I saw one person mention that a heating pad set on low is a baker’s best friend in the winter months (can I find that article again to link here? Of course not, dang it.) So I have been setting up my dough to rise in a bowl wrapped snuggly in a heating pad. It doesn’t take much heat to make it happy! I had been starting the oven, letting it cool to under 80 degrees, then keeping the light on, but that seems to be too much heat. A heating pad on gentle low (which frankly registers zero heat when I use it on my back as it was designed to do) makes the yeast happy and productive. Yay!
