Read the following passage and choose the correct answer to each of the following questions from 31 to 36.
Bread, a staple food in many cultures, is deceptively simple in its basic form: flour, water, yeast, and salt. Yet, behind this simplicity lies a world of complex interactions between these ingredients, influenced by factors like temperature and time.
One key element is yeast, a single-celled fungus that ferments sugars, producing carbon dioxide gas. This gas, trapped within the dough, creates the characteristic air pockets that give bread its texture. The amount of yeast and the time allowed for fermentation, also known as proofing, significantly impact the bread''s flavor and rise.
Kneading, the rhythmic folding and pressing of dough, develops gluten, a protein network that gives bread its structure. Underdeveloped gluten results in dense, heavy loaves, while over-kneading can lead to a tough texture. Finding the right balance is crucial for achieving the desired crumb and chewiness.
Baking transforms the dough into the final product. Heat kills the yeast, solidifies the gluten structure, and evaporates excess moisture, creating a crisp crust and a soft interior. Mastering the interplay of these elements allows bakers to craft a wide variety of bread styles, from crusty baguettes to airy ciabatta.
Question 31
What is the main point of the reading passage?
- Bread is made of only four basic ingredients.
