CONCLUSION
INTRODUCTION
Before we get to the actual making of bread, we must first spend some time thinking about the necessary ingredients and equipment that we might need
Essential ingredients
At its core bread is made from flour, water, yeast and time. It is in the way that these different elements and the addition of a few other ingredients that create the vast differences among the various kinds of bread.
Flour– is the ground seeds of cereal grains. Many different types of flour can be used in food. The most common are wheat and rye; both of which contain relatively high proportions of gluten.
Wheat has the most gluten which makes it ideal for use in bread because it is the elasticity of gluten that gives bread dough the ability to capture bubbles of carbon dioxide and create that lovely airy texture in the food. When making bread with flours that have a lower quantity of gluten in them, it becomes necessary to adjust the recipe to accommodate the lack of gluten.
Meals can be made either by grinding the whole grain or by first removing the bran which creates a fine powder that is much whiter than the entire grain flour.
Yeast – is available in a variety of forms: fresh, dried, instant, and wild. Fresh yeast is often harder to come by, though it is sometimes available to purchase a small amount at a local bakery.
The main benefit of using a dried yeast product is that the shelf life which is much longer than fresh yeast. When using dried yeast in a recipe calling for fresh use half the quantity. Instant yeast is a type of dried yeast that contains a few other ingredients to help the process along so that it can be much faster.
For information on wild yeast please section on sourdough.
Water – used in the dough to hydrate everything to create the money and also to give the yeast a moist environment to live and multiply. Other types of liquids (such as milk) can be used to give the bread more flavor or to help tenderize the food.
Time – is the one major ingredient that is most often overlooked, but that has a tremendous effect on the taste of the food. The whole time the dough is proofing, waiting to go into the oven — from the moment that the water brings the yeast back to life until the heat of the oven brings the cycle to an end, the yeast and the enzymes and the microbes
