Today we tried a home science experiment making bread. To do this it normally is done with yeast. Yeast is a live micro-organism or minute living creature. When you feed the yeast with sugar and warm water, it breathes out gases like carbon dioxide. That's called fermenting, and has a special smell.
When you put fermenting yeast with flour and mix it into a dough, the yeast produces gases which create air pockets doubling the size of the dough and making bread when you've baked it in the oven. Like a lot of science it is a bit like magic. And even better you can eat the results of the experiment !!! Miam Miam (french for yum yum ...)

That science experiment definitely worked! Thank you for capturing it for us!
ReplyDeleteWOW! I have never seen a bread face like that!
