Question

Janka made a loaf of bread that did not rise. What was likely the cause of her dough not rising correctly?

Answer 1

Answer:

her yeast was expired

Explanation:

Bread yeast is a living organism. Over time, it loses its potency and ability to make dough rise. Yeast packaging has an expiration date and it is best to use it prior to this date.  If dough is made with expired yeast, it is possible to rescue the slow rising dough by using a new package of yeast.

Answer 2

Answer:

her yeast was expired

Explanation:

   Yeast is an agent capable of producing fermentation. Yeast is the best known natural yeast. It is a fungus like mold and mushroom. There are over 850 types of yeast, with Saccharomyces cerevisiae being the most widely used in the manufacture of fuel alcohol (ethanol), alcoholic beverages (cachaça, beer and wine) and bread.

   Fresh biological yeast is the one that comes in a tablet and it is very easy to know if it is good: just knead it. If it crumbles, you can use it quietly. Now, if he sticks to his hands and looks like a play dough, he was, dear reader. Will have to rush to the market to buy a new one!

    Dry yeast is the most boring to test: mix a small amount with 2 tablespoons of flour and some warm water. Wait a few minutes. If the mixture gets spongy, you can celebrate because your yeast is still good!
