11. Grease, butter and vegetable oil
Grease can make bread soft but can reduce storage life. Butter should be melted or
chopped into small pieces before using.
12. Baking powder
Baking powder is used for rising the Ultra Fast bread and cakes, as it does not need
time to rise and instead produces air. The air will form to soften the texture of the
bread or cakes.
13. Soda
Soda is similar to baking powder. It can also be used in combination with baking
powder.
14. Water and other liquid
Water is an essential ingredient for making bread. Generally speaking the water
temperature should be between 20
0
C and 25
0
C for the best results. The water may
be replaced with fresh milk or water mixed with 2% milk powder, which will
enhance the breads flavour and improve crust colour. Some recipes may call for
juice, e.g. apple juice, orange juice, lemon juice and so on for the purpose of
enhancing flavour.
