If youâve ever taken a bite of bread youâve made, you may wonder how simple ingredients like flour, salt and yeast can produce raised, sometimes wonderfully bubbly bread. It makes people a little squeamish to know it that yeast makes bread dough rise because it is a live single-celled organism. Specifically it is a variety of fungi called Saccharomyces cerivisiae, which is harnessed to eat, drink and be merry, before dying a quick death when exposed to oven heat.
Yeast, Gluten and Carbon Dioxide. You make sourdough bread from the same basic ingredients that you use for any other bread. The two most important ingredients are flour and yeast. 1  Yeast is a single-cell fungus that breaks down the starches in wheat flour, forming sugar.2  This is fermentation. Yeast is a leavening agent for bread. 2  It is what makes the bread rise. 3  Flour comes from any kind of ground grain, but most bread contains wheat flour. 4  Two proteins found in wheat flour, gliadin and glutenin, form a stretchy substance called gluten.
