Lard is not needed to make yeast bread. You can make excellent bread with just yeast, flour, water, and salt for flavoring.
If your recipe calls for shortening or butter, substitute the same amount of lard for each. (Except for brushing the tops of the dough; butter or egg wash still works best for that.)
Yes, because pizza dough is pretty much bread, and bread has yeast in it.
It says in your "how to make yeast" you soak potato skins in water over night. How many potato skins and how much water for one loaf of bread?
Depends on the bread, the yeast and other ingredients, but the basic ratio is 1.5 tablespoon of dry active yeast a sprinkle of sugar 2 cups of liquid (water or milk) 1 tablespoon of salt 6 cups flour Makes 2 loaves of bread.
Too much flour can cause bread to be heavy and dry instead of light and airy.
Yes, that is theoretically possible. But it is unlikely. Many sweet yeast bread recipes contain quite a lot of sugar. If a sweet yeast bread fails to rise, the cause is usually something other than the amount of sugar. Yes
In yeast breads, salt limits the action of yeast by killing it. If you have too much salt, you might kill the yeast too quickly. The bread might also taste salty. In quick breads (those that rise with baking soda and/or baking powder), salt is used to add flavor, so too much salt will just make the bread taste more salty.
it is called unleavened bread or otherwise known as quick bread. It is called unleavened because it does not contain any leavening agent such as yeast. Try to check this out on Jewish bread recipes.
It can be used, although not with very tasty results. Self Raising Flour is a flour that has been pre-mixed with Yeast, although Yeast alone has a very powerful, pungent smell, its what gives bread most of its flavour. Using Strong White Bread Flour and Yeast seperately and not Self-Raising yields much better results and can be varied to suit any recipe.
1% to 2%. I use about 1.25% ( of the weight of the flour )
Not all breads are vegan as some breads have honey, milk or eggs in them. Check the ingredients. Standard Brand Warburtons is NOT Vegan, while Hovis IS. Make sure the bread does not contain animal fats, like lard.
1 Tbsp. equals 14 grams so therefore 30 grams of yeast equals 2.14 tablespoons.
Typically this is because you have used too much yeast or let it sit too long.
