Corn flour and oatmeal flour -
Corn flour and oatmeal flour are ground from corn
and oatmeal separately. They are the additive ingredients of making rough bread,
which are used for enhancing the flavour and texture.
7)
Sugar -
Sugar is an important ingredient for colour and flavour of breads. It is also a
nourishment for the yeast in the fermentation process. White sugar is largely used.
Brown sugar, powder sugar or cotton sugar may be called by special requirement.
8)
Yeast -
After yeasting process, the yeast will produce carbon dioxide. The carbon
dioxide will expand the bread and make the inner fibre soft. However, yeast fast
breeding needs carbohydrate in sugar and flour as nourishment.

Yeast must be stored in the refrigerator, as the fungus in it will be killed at high
temperature, before using, check the production date and storage life of your yeast.
Store it back to the refrigerator as soon as possible after each use. Usually, the
failure of bread rising is caused by the bad yeast. The following test can be used to
determine whether your yeast is fresh or inactive:
(1)
Pour 1/2 cup warm water (45-50
0
C) into a measuring cup.
(2) Stir 1 tsp. of white sugar into the cup and stir, then sprinkle 2 tsp. yeast over
the water.
(3) Place the measuring cup in a warm place for about 10min. Do not stir the
water.
(4) The mixture should froth and produce a strong yeast aroma and rise to the 1
cup level. If this does not occur, discard the mixture, and start again with
another packet of dried yeast.
9)
Salt -
Salt is necessary to improve bread flavour and crust colour. But salt can also
limit the growth of yeast. Never use too much salt in a recipe, but the loaf would be
larger if without salt.
10)
Eggs -
Eggs can improve bread texture, make the bread richer and larger in size, the
egg must be peeled and stirred evenly.
11)
Grease, butter, and vegetable oil -
Grease can make bread soft and delay storage
life. Butter should be melted or chopped to small particles before using.
12)
Baking powder -
Baking powder is used as a rising agent in cakes. As it does not
need rise time, and it can produce the air, the air will form bubble to soften the
texture of bread utilising chemical principle.
