Step-by-Step Method Day 1: Make and Rest the Dough 1. Activate the yeast In the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a dough hook, combine the warm water and yeast. Let it stand for 5-10 minutes until it becomes foamy. This proves the yeast is active . 2. Mix the dough Add the sugar, salt, softened butter, whole egg, egg yolk, vanilla extract, and 2½ cups of flour to the bowl. Knead on low speed until a shaggy dough forms. If the dough is very sticky, add the remaining flour one tablespoon at a time. The dough should be soft and slightly tacky but pull away from the sides of the bowl. 3. First rise Transfer the dough to a lightly oiled bowl. Cover tightly with plastic wrap and place in a warm, draft-free spot to rise for about 2 hours, or until doubled in size . 4. Overnight refrigeration Gently press down on the dough to deflate it. Re-wrap it tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 8 hours, or overnight. This slow rest is non-negotiable for achieving the right flavor and texture . Day 2: Shape, Fry, and Glaze 5. Shape the doughnuts On a generously floured surface, roll the chilled dough out to ½-inch thickness. Use a floured doughnut cutter (or two different-sized round cutters) to stamp out the shapes. Place them on a parchment-lined baking sheet. You can re-roll the scraps once to cut more doughnuts . 6. Second rise (proofing) Cover the shaped doughnuts with a clean kitchen towel and let them rise for about 1 hour. They should look noticeably puffy . 7. Heat the frying oil About 15 minutes before the proofing is done, melt the vegetable shortening in a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Use a thermometer to bring the temperature to exactly 365°F (185°C). Maintaining the correct temperature is crucial to prevent greasy doughnuts . 8. Fry the doughnuts Line a baking sheet with paper towels and place a wire rack on top. Working in batches of 2-3, carefully lower the doughnuts into the hot shortening. Fry for about 60 seconds per side, until puffed and golden brown. Use a slotted spoon or spider to transfer the fried doughnuts to the wire rack to drain and cool slightly . 9. Make the glaze While the doughnuts are still warm, whisk together the powdered sugar, water, and vanilla extract in a medium bowl until completely smooth . 10. Glaze the doughnuts Dip each warm doughnut into the glaze, turning to coat both sides. Return to the wire rack and allow the glaze to set for about 15 minutes before serving. The warm doughnuts help the glaze adhere and form that signature thin, crackly shell . (Optional) Make the chocolate icing If you want chocolate-iced doughnuts, heat the butter and chocolate chips over low heat until melted and smooth. Remove from heat and stir in the powdered sugar and vanilla. Add hot water one tablespoon at a time until the icing reaches a spreadable consistency. Once the original glaze has set slightly, spread the chocolate icing on top .

Tuscan Schiacciata Bread
Make the pre-fermented dough. Mix together water, flour and yeast. Let sit for 6-12 hours, preferably overnight. Make the schiacciata dough. In a large bowl, combine the pre-fermented dough along with 500 grams flour, 250 grams water and 6 grams salt. Mix until a shaggy dough forms, then knead with your hands until the dough is smooth and elastic but still slightly sticky, 5-10 minutes. If the dough seems very sticky and isn't coming together, add a little more flour. Add a good drizzle of olive oil to the bowl and turn the ball of dough to coat well. Then cover with a damp kitchen towel and allow to rise for two hours, folding the dough over on itself a few times every 30 minutes for this first rise. Drizzle a sheet pan with a generous amount of olive oil. Then stretch the risen dough out onto the sheet pan, doing your best to make it reach all the corners and sides. If you're having trouble stretching the dough (it's very elastic), let it rest for about 5 minutes between stretches. Cover the stretched dough with plastic wrap or a damp kitchen towel and allow to rise again, 2 hours. While the dough is rising, preheat oven to 450. Once risen, use your fingertips to dimple the dough. Then coat it in another generous amount of olive oil and sprinkle with flaky sea salt. Bake the dough for 20-25 minutes, until it is golden brown and the bottom is nice and crusty. Allow it to cool in the pan for 10 minutes before slicing into squares and then slicing across to make sandwiches.
