Adding Sugar to the Dough

Now let me tell you, once the grid, which was told to me by a traditional Baker. His grandmother always added 1/8 teaspoon full of salt to the fermenting bread, as well as the same amount in sugar. According to her, the sugar and the salt helped retain the moisture in the final product.

Now let me give you the scientific explanation. The sugar assists the yeast in its action and keeps the dough working even when the dough is chilled. That is why it gives it a greater tolerance in fermentation. Owing to the hygroscopic nature of sugar, as well as salt, it reduces loss of moisture during baking.

So it does not matter whether you are making long loafs or large rings, crispy croissants and molasses breads, pumpernickels , churros, or any other traditional bread – yeast bread is healthy, and it is one of the most delicious, basic food staples known to mankind.
