the yeast makes whatever you are baking rise by creating carbon dioxide which then makes lots of bubbles in whatever you are baking which causes it to be nice and big and fluffy and not stodgy and dense( in other words it makes it edible)

∙ 15y agoThere are several types, breeds, species, whatever of yeast. I'll batch them by the name "culture". There are cultures for making bread of course, cultures for beer & other alchoholic beverages (sake, etc), cultures for making essentially non-alchoholic beverages (the alchohol content is so low it doesn't count) such as Kefir, cultures for making sausage, cultures for making cheese, cultures for yoghurt, cultures for tofu, and the list goes on. Basically, there's a yeast for any kind of food you can think of! Can you be more specific about what you're looking for? this is a ignorant answer.. can u not just give a straight forward answer and stop being so smart??
