Yeast
Yeast was traditionally used by civilizations for centuries, without people being aware of it, to make bread, wine and beer. It was not until 1860, when Louis Pasteur proved that live yeast was responsible for fermentation, that the properties of yeast began to be understood. The living microorganisms were identified as being microscopic fungi called Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
Yeast is essential to bread making. Its main role consists in converting saccharose or glucose into carbon dioxide, making the dough rise.
Bakers Yeast is available in different types to suit the various needs of the baking industry.
