THE SWEETNESS OF FERMENTED
BREAD.

The little cavities in loaf Of Bread, which
gives it its srongy character, and makes it
light are formed by the expansion Of little
bubbles Of carbonic acid gas there are three
different methods by which these little mas
ses Of carbomc acid are mingled with the
dough
IN making what is called aetated bread, tho
earbonie acid is obtained by any economical
process, and is then mechanically mixed with
the dough by agitating the two together in an
air-tight vessel On being placed in a hot
oven the bubbles of gas expand and puh
the dough into spongy mass
Soda biscuit are raised by setting free car
bouic acid from bicarbonate Of soda. This
salt is composed of soda, carbonic acid, and
water, and if it be brought in contact with
tartaric acid, the soda leaves the carbonic
acid to combine with the tartaric, and the
carbonic acid is set free in the form Of gas.
Advantage is taken of these afinilies 10 dis
tribute carbonic acid gas in minute masses
through the dough. Tartauc acid is first
thoroughly Incorporated with the dough, and
then bicarbonate OF soda IS added and also
thoroughly mixed with the mass. The tar
trate Of soda, formed by the combination OF
tartarie acid and soda, of course remains in
the dough, and is taken into the stomach
with the bread.
To fermented bread the carbonic acid is OBJ
tanned from the dour. All grain contains
starch, and by proper treatment starch may
be converted into grape sugar, which in its
turn may be changed into carbonic acid and
alchohol Both Of these changes are effect
cd by fermentation. Panic fermentation Is
simply the growth of yeast. Yeast Is mi
criseopic plant, and when EMERGED in prop
or liquid and subjected to the proper temper
alure, It propagates and grows with great
rapidity. When it grows in contact witt
moisteued starch 1t converts the starch frst
into sugar, and then the sugar into carbonic
acid and alcohol. The sweetness Of fer
mented bread is doubtless due to the circum
stance that portion Of the sugar formed
from the starch remains in the bread without
being changed into carhonicacid and alcohol
