  1. Yeast Breads Creative Foods

  2. Leavening Agents • Chemical Leavening Agents • Baking Soda • Needs an acid to react • Baking Powder • Corn starch, cream of tartar (acid), and baking soda (base) • Reacts on own • Natural Leavening Agents • Yeast • Steam • Air

  3. Steam • All recipes that contain liquid will produce steam when heated • Pour batters • High oven temperatures • 400 degrees or higher

  4. Air • Incorporated into baked products • Kneading • Folding • Whipping • Sifting • Whipped egg whites • Creaming fat and sugar

  5. Yeast • Microscopic variety of fungus • Dry granular • Greater shelf life • Rehydrated 105*F • Too hot/too cold damages yeast • Compressed cake form • Need refrigerated

  6. Fermentation • Fermentation- yeast converts the complex carbohydrates in the flour into simple sugars that it feeds on • Sugar • Moisture • Warmth • Co2 • Alcohol-evaporates during baking • 80 degrees optimal temperature for growth • Process accelerated • Salt • Process slowed • Cold temperatures • Too much sugar

  7. Steps in preparation of yeast breads: • A.) Ingredients are measured and mixed • Various mixing methods • Yeast is hydrated- 105-115 degrees F • Recipe may indicate to scald milk- warm milk so that it is close, but does not yet boil. • Scalding milk will kill enzymes that interfere with yeast.

  8. Steps in preparation of yeast breads: • B.) Dough is kneaded • Adds more air • Strengthen gluten strands • Mixes all ingredients equally

  9. Steps in preparation of yeast breads: • When have you completed kneading? • Blistered on top • Smooth surface • Don’t see any ingredients • AVOID: tearing because it will rip gluten strands • AVOID: too much flour because it will be too tough to handle

  10. Steps in preparation of yeast breads: • C.) Dough is fermented • Production of CO2 and alcohol • Must be done in a warm area (80 degrees) • When is fermentation complete? • 2x the size, finger indentation remains • If dough is tough, fermentation is not complete • If dough is fermented too much, dough will have a sour smell because of alcohol • *this is also known as RISING

  11. Steps in preparation of yeast breads: • D.) Punching down: • How? Punch with fist in center, fold outside to center, gets air out • Why? Getting rid of CO2, relax gluten strands

  12. Steps in preparation of yeast breads: • E.) Shaping of dough: • Dough may need to be rolled out with pin, shaped into a pan, or cut into desired shape
