Bread Ingredients

Bread is made from the following ingredients:

Flour - providing mainly carbohydrate and a little protein and mineral content.

Water - to bind the flour into a dough and act as a medium for the chemical reactions.

Yeast - to convert the carbohydrate in the dough to gas (carbon dioxide) causing the dough to rise.

Oil - to help the bread stay moist longer and extend its shelf life.

Salt - to add taste and extend shelf life.

Sugar - to provide nutrients for the yeast, making it work quicker.
