Did You Know?

It
is not known when yeast was first used to bake
bread. The first records that show this use came from Ancient Egypt.
Researchers speculate that a mixture of flour meal and water was left
longer than usual on a warm day and the yeasts that occur in natural
contaminants of the flour caused it to ferment before baking. The
resulting bread would have been lighter and tastier than the normal
flat, hard cake.
