Both methods will give you lighter and fluffier breads. I have not found that much difference in the texture or rise. I think it depends what works best for your baking schedule.

The most apparent difference between the two methods is the time till ready to use. Tangzhong can be used as soon as it cools to room temperature while Yudane should be rested for about 8 hours. Yudane is simpler to make however, incorporating Yudane into the dough is more difficult since the mixture is stiffer.

The hardest part is the math involved to get your recipe to 75% hydration before using either method. 

Convert your recipes to use the Yudane technique. It will give you wonderful results that you can do with any breads. An added benefit is it will stay fresh much longer. Yudane is a technique where you pour boiling water over some of the flour and let it sit 8 hours to overnight. This method is great for doughs that you are going to let sit overnight in the fridge.
The heated starch granules, attract water molecules. This causes the granules to swell and soften, absorbing and trapping water. The flour absorbs twice as much hot liquid as cold liquid, which is why the heating process is essential. 
Yudane: Ratio is 1:1 (1 part water to 1 part flour -20% of the flour in recipe) 

• Boil the water and pouring over the flour and mix.
• Put into the fridge to cool for at least 8 hours - overnight.
• Good option to use for indirect dough

Original Recipe
Yields: 24 Buns - 47g ea.
Bake: 350

Recipe Adjusted to 75% Hydration & Tangzhong
Yudane 20% of recipe
128g flour (1 cup)
128g water (1/2 cup)
Heat water on stove or microwave and pour over the 128g flour and stir. Let this sit for 8 hours or put into fridge overnight.

Dry Ingredients
514g Hard White ( 2 1/3 c)
3/4 tsp. dried malt powder (you can omit if you like)
8g Salt (3/4 tsp.)
10g Yeast (3 1/2 tsp.)

Liquid
45g Cane Syrup (honey) (2 T. +1 tsp.)
346g Water (c)

20g Butter (1 1/2 T.)
10g Soy Flour (1 1/2 T.) omit if you like

Directions

• Add the yudane mixture to the liquid ingredients and mix.
• Add the dry ingredients to the mixer then the liquid ingredients. Mix until just moistened and let sit for 5 minutes.
• Now develop the gluten with the mixer (mix 3 minutes with dough hook) Remove from the mixer and place the dough on the counter and flatten it out.
• Soften the butter and add the soy flour to form a paste. Spread the paste onto the dough and cut the dough into pieces and add back to the mixer bowl.
• Knead until the butter mixture is incorporated into the dough. The dough will now be softer. If should only take about 2 minutes.
• Bulk proof for 20-30 minutes
• Shape into 24 round balls about 45g - 47g each.
• Add Shine: 1 large egg yolk + 2T. water mix in a small bowl and brush the buns before proofing them.
• Proof for an addition 20 minutes until about the size you want them.
• Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees
• Put into the oven and bake at 350 for 15 minutes

Convert your recipes to use the Tangzhong technique. It will give you wonderful results that you can do with any breads. An added benefit is it will stay fresh much longer. Tangzhong is a technique where you cook some of the flour in a liquid and then add it to the dough. It's perfect for direct doughs because you can use it as soon as it cools down a bit. As the starch granules are heated, water is attracted to the molecules. This causes the granules to swell and soften, absorbing and trapping water. The flour absorbs twice as much hot liquid as cold liquid, which is why the heating process is essential. 

Tangzhone: The ratio is 5:1 (5 parts water to 1 part flour) - usually

• Involves cooking the flour and liquid together on a stovetop or microwave to form a paste.
• Cool to under 115 degrees and add to the rest of the liquid ingredients.
• Good option to use for a direct dough.
• The higher percentage of the flour that is pre-gelatinized the softer rolls.

This recipe is from Peter Reinhart's book and is simple to make. It makes one large loaf and is best to use finely ground whole grain flour. His method is a bit different than most when baking but it's the method that I have had the most success with in obtaining light high loaves.

Soaker
184g hard red or hard white flour (1 1/3c + 1T.)
28g  oat bran (4T.)
14g flax seeds (1 1/2 T.)
4g salt (1/2 tsp.)
198g water (3/4 c. + 2T.)

• Mix all the soaker ingredients together in a bowl until all of the flour is hydrated and the ingredients form a ball of dough.
  
• Cover and place in the fridge, this is good for 3 days.

Biga
227g hard red or hard white flour (1 3/4c.)
1g instant yeast (1/4 tsp.)
170g water (3/45 c.)

• Mix all of the biga ingredients together in a bowl and form a ball of dough. It will be tacky, let it rest a few minutes and knead a few times until smoother. Cover and place into the fridge. This is good for up to 3 days

Final Dough
The next day or the day of baking take the biga and soaker out of the fridge. I use them cold but you can let come to room temperature. You will be adding the final ingredients to them.
In a small container mix together:
56g hard red or hard white flour (7 T.)
5g salt (5/8 tsp.)
7g instant yeast (2 1/4 tsp)
42g honey, or agave nectar or brown sugar (2 1/2 T)

14g vegetable oil (1 T.)

• Lay the biga on the counter and flatten into a disk, then lay the soaker on top and flatten into a disk.
• Cut thru the disk,  into about 12 pieces and put into your mixing bowl. As you are cutting the dough add the final ingredient to the cut up pieces.
• Finally add the vegetable oil to the mixing bowl.
  
• Put the dough hook on and mix for 3 minutes at low speed. The dough will be soft and slightly sticky. If it seems too sticky let the dough rest 5 minutes and come back to see how it feels. If it needs more flour or water adjust as needed. Test to see if you have a windowpane.
  
• Bulk proof for 45-60 minutes until it is about 1 1/2 times it original size.
  
• Shape as a freestanding batard or place into a greased loaf pan. I use a 9 inch pullman pan.
  
• Cover so the top stays moist and let it raise another 45-60 minutes.
  
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees, I use a steam pan in the bottom of the oven while preheating.
  
• Place the loaf into the oven and lower the temperature to 350 degrees. Bake for 20 minutes then rotate the pan if needed and continue baking another 20 minutes.
  
• To test for done, the loaf will reach an internal temperature of 195 degrees. It will be rich brown and have a hollow sound when thumped on the bottom.
  

Yeast is a hot commodity lately, it's no where to be found in the supermarkets. There is a way to make your own yeast using fresh or dried fruit and even potatoes will work. This does take a few days to get the yeast going. Watch The Video

Creating yeast water couldn’t be easier, simply combine fruit and water, and you’ll be ready to bake naturally leavened bread in about week. Yeast is all around us, all we have to do to harness it's power. When you create yeast water you are harvesting the yeast that naturally occurs in fruit and vegetable skins or pulp. Avoid using mango, pineapple, kiwi and papaya. these fruits contain a protease enzyme. This enzyme destroys protein and inhibits gluten development.

Supplies Needed:

• 34oz jar glass is best but plastic will work
  
• Funnel

Recipe: From PJ Hamel at King Arthur Flour

• 500g (2 1/4 cups) of water (tap water is fine)
• 50g (1/4 cup) of granulated sugar
• 2 dried dates (pitted or whole)
  

Note: You can use other fruits like organic raisins about 1-2 T. Also different types of sugar would work, even molasses or honey.

Directions:

• Add the fruit, water and sugar to the jar and screw the cap on the jar. Shake vigorously to dissolve the sugar. Loosen the cap a half-turn and put the bottle somewhere warm 78.8°F is optimal. I put the bottle on my freezer or the top of the hot water tank would work in my house.
  
• Shake the bottle twice a day for 4 days. Unscrew the cap daily to let out any pressure buildup, screw it back on, then shake well.
  
• By the end of 4 days, the water should be frothy on top, and you’ll definitely be able to smell the fruit fermenting.

Day 5: Add the following to the bottle:

• 1 dried date
• 5g (1 teaspoon) salt
• 20g (1 1/2 tablespoons) granulated sugar
• 400g (1 3/4 cups) water

Shake the bottle vigorously to dissolve the sugar. Put it back in its warm spot, and shake twice a day, uncapping and recapping each time, for 4 more days.

Baking

• Each bottle of yeast water will yield about six average-sized loaves of bread, minus the 200g you need to save for future loaves.
• Use the yeast water instead of the water or liquid in the bread.
• It may take longer for your loaf to raise, that will depend on the amount of the yeast water used and the strength of the yeast in the water.

Save 200g yeast water plus add the following for future use

• 700g tap water
• 35g sugar
• 3.5g salt
• 2 dried dates
• Shake twice a day for 2 to 3 days, until the yeast water is foaming nicely. Strain out the dates, and store water in the refrigerator.
• Yeast water makes a bread with mild, rather than an assertive sourdough tang. This can be a pro or con, depending on your personal taste.
  

Pros

• There’s very little upkeep; once yeast water is made it can live in the refrigerator for up to a couple of months without being fed.
• Yeast water isn’t fed with flour and there’s no discard; so you’re not throwing away flour, as you might with a standard starter.

Cons

• Since there’s no discard with yeast water, you don’t have the chance to make a lot of yummy recipes that call for sourdough starter discard.
• Making a starter with yeast water takes longer: up to around 16 hours, as opposed to around 6 to 8 hours for a standard sourdough starter.

Focaccia bread are the pizzas of northern Italy they are usually baked in sheet pans and are around 1 inch thick. This is a high hydration dough that is usually topped with simple ingredients like onions, rosemary, and olives. You can top it with what ever you like. This recipe is from Peter Reinhart's "Whole Grain Breads" cookbook.

Ingredients:
4 c. hard red or hard white flour (510g)
1 1/4 tsp. salt (10g)
1 1/4 tsp. instant yeast (4g)
2 c. +2 T. water (482g) warm water
1 1/2 tsp. honey
1 1/2 T. olive oil (21g)

Directions:

1. Place all the ingredients in your mixing bowl except the olive oil. Mix for 2-3 minutes on low speed. The dough will be very sticky but smooth, if needed add a bit extra flour.
2. Now add the olive oil and mix another 15 seconds, long enough to just coat the dough. Let the dough rest for 5 minutes. At this point the dough should have some structure not batter like. If it is still too wet and feels like batter add more flour and mix again. The dough should pass the window pane test.
3. Prepare a 17 x 12 inch sheet pan by lining it with parchment paper and oiling it with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
   
4. Grease your hands with olive oil and dump the dough onto the parchment paper in the pan and spread the dough out. It might be difficult to spread and will only cover about half the pan that is fine. Cover with plastic and let it sit overnight in the refrigerator. It will raise slightly overnight.
5. The next day remove the pan from the refrigerator about 4 hours before you plan to bake it. Remove the plastic and drizzle 1-2 tsp olive oil over the top. Now with your fingertips press out the dough, starting from the center of the pan moving out to all the corners. This will create dimples as you press. You may have to stop several times and let the dough rest about 10-20 minutes and continue stretching it out.
   
6. Once the dough is stretched out loosely cover the dough with plastic and let it rest at room temperature for about 2-3 hours depending on the room temperature. 
7. Prepare you toppings, Pre-heat the oven to 500 degrees. Once you have it in the oven reduce the temperature to 450 degrees and bake for 15 minutes. Add any cheeses at the last 3 minutes of baking
8. Remove from the oven and let it cool for a few minutes before slicing. If you want a crisp crust remove the parchment paper and put the slices on a screen to crisp up the bottom crust. If you like a soft crust leave it too cool on the parchment paper.

This is a recipe from The Laurel's Kitchen Bread Book. All of her recipes are made with 100% whole grain flours. This bread is a good all-around loaf for sandwiches and just perfect for a Reuben sandwich. Below is the exact recipe from Laurel's Kitchen, but I have had better luck with this recipe using a couple of different mixing techniques. Read both methods and decide what will work best for you, they are the same ingredients just put together differently.

Yields: 2 loaves
Bake: 50 minutes
Oven: 350 degrees

Ingredients:
2 tsp. active dry yeast (7g)
1 c. warm water (235g)

3 c. rye flour (385g)
4 c. hard red wheat flour (600g)
2 T. carob powder (18g)
2 1/2 tsp. salt (14g)
1/2 tsp. caraway seeds

1 c. tepid water (235g)
1 1/2 T. honey (30g)
2 T. cider vinegar (30g)
2 T. vegetable oil (30g)

1 c. more water if needed to knead (235g)*

Same Recipe but different mixing techniques:
The reason I have adopted a few different techniques is wheat and rye do not absorb liquid at the same rate. Rye has more fiber and is slower to absorb liquid. Also, they both have gluten but wheat gluten is stronger and is what will lift this bread. I develop the wheat gluten first before adding the rye flour to the mix. Rye also breaks down when over kneaded, which is very easy to do. To overcome all these issues, I take the liquid in the recipe and add some to the wheat flour and develop the gluten until I get a window pane. Then add the rest of the liquid to the rye flour mix and add this to the developed wheat dough. I mix them until just combined, that way the rye is not over mixed.

Recipe:
3 c. rye flour (385g)
2 T. carob powder (18g)
1/2 tsp. caraway seeds
2 T. cider vinegar (30g)
275g water

4 c. hard red wheat flour (600g)
2 tsp. instant yeast (7g)
2 1/2 tsp. salt (14g)
2 T. vegetable oil (30g)
2 T. honey (30g)
425g water

Directions:

1. The Rye flour, carob, caraway seeds, vinegar, and water add to the mixer. Mix with the paddle attachment until is mixed. Take out of the mixer and put on the counter
2. Add the wheat flour, yeast, salt, oil, honey and water to the mixer and mix with the paddle until mixed. Let it sit for 5 minutes.
3. Put the dough hook on and knead the wheat flour for 5-10 minutes until the gluten is developed. The dough will be elastic, remove from the bowl and place dough on the counter
4. Make a disk out of the wheat dough and the rye dough. Lay one on top of the other and cut into hunks and return to the mixer.
5. Knead until completely mixed, do not over knead. The dough will be sticky, if you need too, remove and finish the kneading by hand.
   
6. Continue with the directions from step 7 bulk proof.

I think one of the hardest things to achieve is a good place to proof your dough. Everyone's home is different in temperature and humidity so what might work for some is not the best option for others. There are so many options to proofing your dough, some folks even proof overnight in the fridge.

I ferment the dough in the fridge overnight but then I get it out and put the bread together in the morning. After kneading the dough I bulk proof it in my proofing box. I have tried many different proofing boxes and this one is simple to make, very inexpensive, easy to clean, and stores away until needed. In my kitchen space limitations are an issue, I keep the proofing box on a rolling cart that must fit under a shelf. So the height of the plastic tub in my circumstances was an issue. I used two plastic tubes about 6 inches in height. There was nothing available in the correct height and width that would work for my situation. 

Supplies Needed

• 2 plastic tubs minimum of  6 inches in heights the length and width is up to you - clear plastic is best so you can see into it.
• Fish Aquarium heater - they are under $20.00 (check temperature range on the model)
• Clips to hold the tubs together
• Some sort of rack to fit inside that water will not damage and hold your bowl or pans above the warm water.

I have my proofing box on a rolling cart, which makes it easier to move around. Once filled with water it can be a bit on the heavy side. When not in use my proofing box is rolled under a shelf out of the way.

According to the directions you must fill the water about 1 inch in depth above the  fish aquarium heater. The heater will hold the water at a constant temperature of 90 degrees just about perfect for bread.

The rack is just something I found at the thrift shop and chopped it in half to fit inside the tub. Once loaded with the loaves, I put the other tub on top and clip them together. Since they are clear you can see how the bread is coming along.

Cleaning is a breeze, just drain the water and wipe down the tubs and store away. I hope this information will help you to come up with a workable solution to getting your bread to raise to new heights.
