Ingredients and tools

This chapter describes a number of ingredients and tools used for baking bread. Each ingredient has a special purpose. It is important to

purchase high-quality ingredients and use them in the exact amounts specified in the recipes. While some ingredients are interchangeable, others

will produce poor results in bread.

Ingredients
White flour

White flour contains enough protein (gluten) to give a lot of volume and texture to bread. It is gluten that forms the cell wall structure, traps

and holds the air bubbles and allows the bread to rise. Most flour is bleached. This does not affect the baking performance or the shelf life.

Wholewheat flour

Wholewheat flour is a coarsely ground type of flour milled from the entire wheat kernel - brand, germ and endosperm. The brand and germ

provide the brown colour and nutty flavour while increasing fibre. Baking with wholewheat flour results in shorter, denser loaves.

Rye flour

Rye flour is made by finely grinding rye kernels. Only flours made from wheat and rye contain gluten-forming proteins. The gluten in rye flour is

not very elastic, therefore rye flour must be used in combination with wheat flour.

cereals, grains and seeds

Cereals, grains and seeds provide variety in texture, flavour and appearance of breads. They increase fibre content. Three, five, seven or twelve-

grain cereals can be substituted in a recipe for any multi-grain cereal. Cracked wheat is the wholewheat kernel that is cracked into particles of

different sizes from coarse to fine. Bulgur is the wheat kernel with the bran removed, which is steamed, dried and ground. Natural bran, both

wheat and oats, cuts the gluten strands. Therefore do not use more bran than is stated in the recipe.

Gluten-free flour

Gluten is present in many cereals, such as wheat, rye, barley, oats, etc. Gluten-free bread is to be made exclusively from gluten-free flour or

gluten-free bread mixes.

Semolina flour

Semolina, a creamy yellow coarsely ground flour milled from hard durum wheat, is high in protein. It is used to make fresh pasta. Pasta dough

made of semolina is easier to knead and holds its shape better during cooking than pasta dough made with all-purpose flour. You can replace

part of the all-purpose or wholewheat flour by semolina.

Fats

Fats tenderise, add flavour and extend shelf life of bread by retaining moisture. Shortening, margarine, butter or oil can be interchanged in

recipes. Loaves baked with these fats will vary slightly. Avoid low-calorie soft margarine as the higher water content can greatly affect loaf size

and texture.
