Key Points: Yeast and Microbes in Bread Making

  • Bread is prepared from cereal flour using baker’s yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae).
  • Yeast ferments carbohydrates to produce carbon dioxide and ethanol.
  • Carbon dioxide causes dough to rise, making bread soft and spongy.
  • Compressed yeast is used in commercial bakeries, while dry granular yeast is used domestically.
  • Yeast is rich in proteins, vitamins, minerals, fats, and carbohydrates, increasing the nutritive value of bread.
