Yeast

Yeast is an absolute key ingredient in baking for structural purpose. It produces carbon dioxide by breaking down fermentable sugars in the dough. Carbon dioxide produced causes expansion of the dough as it is trapped in the protein matrix of the dough. It also causes the dough to mature as its by-products and physical stretching of the protein by the gas causes the dough to have a light and airy structure.

 

Fermentation of dough with yeast also produces a unique flavour profile as it produces secondary metabolites that react with each other to form new and more complex flavour compounds. This primarily happens in the crust and the resultant flavour diffuses into the crumbs of baked bread.
