Best Answer

Salt and fat are added at the end of some methods of mixing bread dough so that they will not interfere with the incorporation of yeast into the flours or reduce the rising power of the yeast. However, when modern forms of "active dry yeast" are used, the salt and yeast can be added together, directly to the flour, with fats stirred in immediately thereafter.
