The exact origin of the first leavened or yeast bread is not definitively known, as it dates back thousands of years. However, it is believed that ancient Egyptians were among the first to create leavened bread around 1500 BC, likely by accident when wild yeast from the environment fermented dough. This process led to the discovery of bread that rose and became lighter in texture compared to flatbreads.

Why is yeast in the bread used?

If you've ever seen pita bread, you know it is perfectly flat. It is an unleavened bread. All bread would be flat if not for leavening, yeast being a prime example. Feeding on the sugars in the bread dough the yeast creates carbon dioxide gas, which "inflates" the dough (we say "the bread rises"). The baked loaf retains this "inflated" shape.


Can you use quick rise yeast in place of bread machine yeast in a bread machine?

Instant yeast is a dry yeast developed in the past thirty years. It comes in smaller granules than active dry yeast, absorbs liquid rapidly, and doesn't need to be hydrated or "proofed" before being mixed into flour. Bread Machine Yeast is instant yeast that may include ascorbic acid, a dough conditioner. You can use them interchangeably.


Why do Adventists use bread made without yeast in the celebration of the Lord's Supper?

It is at least partly because the Communion service is based on the Last Supper, whiich was a celebration of Passover, and on Passover, bread was required to be made without yeast. In fact, yeast was not supposed to be found anywhere among them during that time. Yeast is not vegan... From the ground sprouted plants for us. Not cultures of micro-organism. Btw way that is a logical answer from a non SDA.... If you want to know why SDA don't perhaps you should read your Bible as its mentioned in their many times that yeast is bad.

Do you have to put yeast in bread?

If you're using dried yeast, Yes. You can also buy active yeast in jars, generally in the refrigerator section and use that instead. However, it doesn't technically rise in warm water, the liquid allows the yeast to be reactivated. You can then add this to bread dough and the yeast digesting the sugar in the bread give off CO2 as a byproduct which allows the dough to rise and gives it those characteristic holes.


What should you use in making banana bread baking soda or baking powder?

Well banana bread is a quick bread, that means it is leavened (raised) with chemicals (baking soda) rather than by fermentation (yeast.) You will need some form of leavening to make banana bread. There are many kinds of baking powders with different ingredients. I prefer a non-aluminum powder because I think that the aluminum ones tend to make baked goods taste "off" after a day or two. You can also use baking soda. If the recipe calls for powder and you are using soda you will want to make your own powder. There are a few different recipes, but they will all be "single action" meaning that you need twice as much because they won't get a heat boost from the oven like the commercial double actions. I use this recipe: 1 part soda + 2 parts cream of tartar + 2 parts corn starch. (Although I usually omit the corn starch and use 3/5 as much as is called for.) You could certainly make a bread or bread product that contains banana but is not leavened (or one that is yeast leavened.) I don't know any recipes but maybe a quick internet search or some experimenting would do the trick.
