Bread-Bakers v097.n077.5

Hi,

There was a post about sources for dough enhancer.  I happened to find 
this recipe in my files for homemade enhancer.  I have not had any 
experience with it (or commercial variety for that matter).  But maybe 
it will help (unless the ingredients are just as expensive as buying 
it).

      Title: Dough Enhancer
 Categories: Breadmaker, Substitutes
      Yield: 32 Servings


        1 c  Lecithin granules

        1 tb Vitamin C powder

        1 tb Ginger, ground

  Mix all ingredients and store in tightly closed glass

  jar. Add to breadmaker in amount equal to yeast with

  other dry ingredients. Start machine. Apparently, 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.
