DOUGH ENHANCER RECIPE - (5/5)

Steps:

• Mix all ingredients and store in tightly closed glass jar. Add to bread maker in amount equal to yeast with other dry ingredients. Start machine. The ginger gooses the yeast and makes it act more swiftly, the ascorbic acid strengthens the gluten, and the lecithin aids the oil in causing the strands of gluten to slip against each other more easily and thus rise better. Lecithin is a food supplement which is obtained from oil in egg yolks or soy beans. It improves moisture and assists in expansion and elasticity of the bread dough. Add between 1 and 1-1/2 tsp of lecithin granules per cup of flour. May substitute oil for lecithin: 1-1/2 t per C of flour. It appears vinegar may also be used as a substitute. Use 1 T ascorbic acid per 3-1/2 C flour in recipe

• *Fruit Fresh can be found in the section of your store that carries canning supplies- it is often added to fruit jams to keep them from browning. It is actually just a form of vitamin C (ascorbic acid).
• As for the lethicin, I use Bobs Red Mill brand available in larger grocery or health food stores wherever you find his brand of bagged grains.
