If "dough" (slang for money) derives from "bread", shouldn't that in turn reference cockney rhyming slang? Or does this come from some other lineage? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 216.75.170.81 ( talk • contribs) 21:43, February 3, 2006 (UTC)
im sure dough, (interchangable with bread) meaning money comes from the cockney rhyming slang bread (and honey) - money, not that bread is needed to live!
According to the Oxford English Dictionary Online, the use of dough to mean money originated in the United States. It doesn't give an explanation of how or why that is, unfortunately. The earliest quotation the dictionary cites is from the Yale Tomahawk in 1851: "He thinks he will pick his way out of the Society's embarrassments, provided he can get sufficient dough." Clukyanenko ( talk) 15:56, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
Dough also is a kind of cold drink used iran and made from blending youghort, water, salt and some kind of vegetables. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 84.11.13.147 ( talk • contribs) 12:22, February 18, 2006 (UTC) Do you mean Doogh, that seems like it may be pronounced a little differently than the grain paste. Whitebox ( talk) 11:51, 9 January 2013 (UTC)
This article currently mentions roti and naan as examples of leavened bread, while the entry on roti mentions being unleavened as the distinguishing characteristic of roti. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 62.120.145.66 ( talk) 14:48, 20 February 2011 (UTC)
In America, "elephant ears" is a common name for fried dough.
Um, which America and what region of that America is this common in? o.0
Here is Fried dough and a List of fried dough foods. Whitebox ( talk) 11:58, 9 January 2013 (UTC)
What method are you referring to when you say that people in parts of central India use "the quick method," in regard to making an instant roasted dough ball or baati? Are you saying they use a food processor or Kitchen Aid appliance to mix the ground grain with water and knead it, instead of using their hands, a bowl, and a flat surface? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Nomenclator ( talk • contribs) 06:03, 3 June 2011 (UTC)
Will this be locked as well along with cookies? 184.98.143.25 ( talk) 09:11, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
I've been working on this article but there is much to add.

In the first paragraph the sentence "Doughs are made from a wide variety of flours, commonly wheat but also flours made from maize, rice, rye, legumes, almonds, and other cereals and crops used around the world." has several links in it for the ingredients. I clicked "rice" expecting to go to the "rice flour" page but instead it just went to the page for rice. To me this seemed unintuitive - does anyone else think these should redirect to the types of flour and not their ingredients, or am I alone in this?

Is it also known as "mass"?

Does anyone know the English name for this? Thanks, Anna Frodesiak ( talk) 23:03, 9 July 2016 (UTC)
What does the (Canada) in the title refer to? Does Canada have a unique breadmaking process? Do these chemicals not exist outside of Canada? An explanation would be helpful.
I'm also confused as to why this needs to be in the Dough article, since all of these additives have their own articles, and there are many ingredients associated with dough that aren't present on the page (e.g. sometimes there are sesame seeds on bread, but that doesn't mean they need to have a section on the Dough page). Mayawagon ( talk) 20:50, 13 March 2019 (UTC)
@ Fnh200-12, Mayawagon, and Gzuufy: I'm deleting this section. This is an issue of undue weight: as Gzuufy mentions, this level of detail might be appropriate in a more comprehensive article that addressed many dimensions of dough. But, on this short page, it puts too much emphasis on dough additives. Furthermore, it addresses the legal standing of dough additives in Canada over many other angles. Perhaps the content can find a place on a more specific article. BenKuykendall ( talk) 02:14, 2 January 2020 (UTC)
