yeast
Yeast must be stored in the refrigerator, as
the fungus in it will be killed at high
temperatures. Before using yeast check
the producon date and storage life of
your yeast. Refrigerate it as soon as
possible aer each use. The main cause of
bread failing to rise is bad yeast.
The method described below will check
whether your yeast is fresh and acve.
(1) Pour 1/2 cup warm water (45-50˚C)
into a measuring cup.
(2) Put 1 tsp. white sugar into the cup and
sr, then sprinkle 2 tsp. of yeast over the
water.
(3) Place the measuring cup in a warm
place for about 10min. Do not sr the
water.
(4) The froth that appears should come up
to 1 cups worth. Otherwise the yeast is
dead or inacve.
Salt
Salt is necessary to improve the avour
and crust colour of the bread. Salt can also
stop the yeast from working. Never use
too much salt in a recipe.
Grease, buer and vegetable oil
Grease can make bread so but can
reduce storage life. Buer should be
melted or chopped into small pieces
before use.
