Rapid Rise Yeast
There products are a mixture of yeast and bread
improver. Brands will vary in strength. If wishing
to substitute for yeast in a recipe, omit the bread
improver. Rapid rise yeasts should not be used
with bread mix as bread improver is already
included.
NEW ZEALAND ONLY: ‘Edmonds Surebake
Yeast’ is the most readily available yeast
product in New Zealand. Where a recipe
states ‘Bread Improver and Tandaco Yeast’
substitute with ‘Edmonds Surebake Yeast.’
WATER
Tap water is used in all recipes. If using water in
cold climates or from the refrigerator, allow water
to come to room temperature. Extremes of hot or
cold water will prevent the yeast activating.
EGGS
Eggs are used in some bread recipes and provide
liquid, help with the rising and increase the
nutritional value of the bread. They give flavour
and tenderness and are usually used in the
sweeter type of breads.
OTHER INGREDIENTS
Fruit, nuts, chocolate chips, etc. are added
when the bread machine sounds 10 short beeps
approximately 8 minutes before the end of the
second kneading when using the BASIC, RAPID,
WHOLE WHEAT, FRENCH, SWEET and DOUGH
settings. If added before this stage, excessive
kneading will cause the ingredients to break down
rather than hold their shape.
