INTRODUCTION OF BREAD INGREDIENTS
4. Black Wheat Flour
Black wheat flour, also named as "rough flour", it is a kind of high fiber flour, and it is similar with whole-wheat
flour. To obtain the large size after rising, it must be used in combination with high proportion of bread flour.
5. Self-rising Flour
A type of flour that contains baking powder, it is used for making cakes specially.
6. Corn Flour And Oatmeal Flour
Corn flour and oatmeal flour are ground from corn and oatmeal separately. They are the additive ingredients
of making rough bread, which are used for enhancing the flavor and texture.
7. Sugar
Sugar is very important ingredient to increase sweet taste and color of bread. It is also considered as
nourishment in the yeast bread. White sugar is largely used. Brown sugar, powder sugar or cotton sugar may
be called by special requirement.
8. Yeast
After yeasting process, the yeast will produce carbon dioxide. The carbon dioxide will expand the bread and
softens the inner fiber. However, yeast fast action needs carbohydrate in sugar and flour as nourishment.
1 tsp. active dry yeast =3/4 tsp. instant yeast
1.5 tsp. active dry yeast =1 tsp. instant yeast
2 tsp. active dry yeast =1.5 tsp. instant yeast
Yeast must be stored in the refrigerator, as the fungus in it will be killed at high temperature. Before using,
check the production date and storage life of your yeast. Store it back into the refrigerator as soon as possible
after each use. Usually the failure of bread rising is caused by the bad yeast.
The ways described below will check whether your yeast is fresh and active.
(1) Pour 1/2 cup warm water (45-500C) into a measuring cup.
(2) Put 1 tsp. white sugar into the cup and stir, then sprinkle 2 tsp. yeast over the water.
(3) Place the measuring cup in a warm place for about 10min. Do not stir the water.
(4) The froth should be up to 1 cup. Otherwise the yeast is dead or inactive.
9. Salt
Salt is necessary to improve bread flavor and crust color. But salt can also restrain yeast from rising. Never use
too much salt in a recipe. But bread would be larger if without salt.
10. Egg
Eggs can improve bread texture, make the bread more nourish and large in size, the egg must be peeled and
stirred evenly.
11. Fat, Butter And Vegetable Oil
Fat can make bread soften and delay storage life. Butter should be melted or chopped to small pieces before using.
12. Baking Powder
Baking powder is used for rising the Ultra Fast bread and cake. As it does not need rise time and it can produce
the air, the air will form bubble to soften the texture of bread utilizing chemical principle.
13. Soda
It is similar with baking powder. It can also be used in combination with baking powder.
14. Water And Other Liquid
Water is essential ingredient for making bread. Generally speaking, water temperature between 20ºC and
25ºC is the best. The water may be replaced with fresh milk or water mixed with 2% of milk powder, which may
enhance bread flavor and improve crust color. Some recipes may require juice for the purpose of enhancing
bread flavor, e.g. apple juice, orange juice, lemon juice and so on.

INGREDIENTS MEASUREMENT
One of the important steps for making good bread is proper amount of ingredients. It is strongly suggested
that the use of measuring cup or measuring spoon obtains accurate amount, otherwise the bread will be
largely influenced.
1. Weighing Liquid Ingredients
Water, fresh milk or milk powder solution should be measured with measuring cups. Observe the level of the
measuring cup with your eyes horizontally. When you measure cooking oil or other ingredients, clean the
measuring cup thoroughly without any other ingredients.
2. Dry Measurements
Dry measuring must be done by gently spooning ingredients into the measuring cup and then once filled, level
it off with a knife. Scooping or tapping a measuring cup with more than it is required could affect the balance
of the recipe. When measuring small amounts of dry ingredients, the measuring spoon must be used.
Measurements must be leveled, not heaped as this small difference could throw out the critical balance of
the recipe.
3. Adding Sequence
The sequence of adding ingredients should be abided, generally speaking, the sequence is: liquid ingredients,
eggs, salt and milk powder etc. When adding the ingredient, the flour can't be wetted by liquid completely. The
yeast can only be placed on the dry flour and it can't touch with salt. When you use the delay function for a long
time, do not add the perishable ingredients such as eggs, fruit ingredient.
