Bread Yeast Bacteria at James Cisneros blog

Bread Yeast Bacteria. Here’s how it works—and how you can grow your own. Most home sourdough bakers know that their starter contains a vibrant herd of microbes, which leaven and flavor their bread. Sourdough bread is made using a naturally fermented mixture of flour and water called a sourdough starter. They metabolize sugars to produce carbon dioxide, alcohol, and organic acids, contributing to the final baked product's rise, flavor, and texture. This sourdough starter is a living culture of wild yeast and lactic acid bacteria that leaven the bread and develop its characteristic flavor. The microbes found on bakers' hands mirror the microbes within their starters — the bubbly mix of yeast, bacteria and flour that's the soul of. The funky science of yeast, the gassy microbe behind your pandemic bread. Most home sourdough bakers know that their starter contains a vibrant herd of microbes, which leaven and flavor their bread. The yeasts cause the dough to rise by creating carbon dioxide bubbles, while the lactic acid bacteria provide the sour flavor (in the form of acetic acid and lactic acid) and. But where conventional breads rely on a single species of baker’s yeast — the microbial equivalent of a cattle ranch — sourdough is more like the serengeti, a diverse ecosystem of interacting yeasts and bacteria.
