Definition: A dough is a thick unbaked mixture (thicker than a batter) that can be rolled out or shaped by hand.
Baked Goods Made with Doughs: Yeast breads, biscuits, scones, cookies, pie, and tart crusts.
Tips for Working with Dough: If you are handling a dough that is too sticky, you can always lightly flour your countertop. However, be cautious not to use too much flour when shaping yeast bread dough, as you want the dough to naturally stick to itself to help build tension and hold its shape.
