Salt

Salt is necessary to balance flavor in breads

 

and cakes; it also limits growth of yeast. Do not

 

increase or decrease amount of salt shown in

 

recipes.

Sugar

Sugar is important for color and flavor of

 

breads. It also serves as food for yeast since it

 

the supports fermentation process. Recipes in

 

this book that call for sugar require granulated

 

sugar.

 

Important: Do not substitute powdered sugar.

 

Artificial sweeteners cannot be used as

 

substitute, as yeast will not react properly with

 

them.

 

 

High-Altitude Baking

In high-altitude areas (over 3,000 feet) dough tends to rise faster, as there is less air pressure. Therefore, less yeast is necessary. For more information on High Altitude Baking guides contact:

In dry climates, flour is drier and requires slightly more liquid.

In humid climates, flour is wetter and will absorb less liquid, so less liquid is required.
