I’ve been really confused. I think my wheat bread is soft and delicious and I don’t use enhancer because I read that was for really old, stored wheat that may not bake up as well. How do you know if you need to bother with it?

This was so helpful. Locally, I can only find dough enhancer at the health food store and a tiny bottle is expensive. Now that I understand what dough enhancer is, I can make it myself!

This video explained a lot for me, thank you. It also made me think. Basically as I understand it there are basically 3 things for a dough enhancer; protein, starch and acid. You used gluten for the protein. I have been reading recently about the Ezekiel 4:9 bread and the highly increased protein contents from the sprouted grains and legumes. You used potato buds (which I get from the cannery every chance I get) for the starch. I know that potato and corn are great sources of starch. Often potato is used as a feeder for sour doughs. Your comment about using the water from cooking potatoes is great. Legumes are also a great source of starch. I wonder if the additional starch from the legumes in the Ezekiel bread would be sufficient? For the vinegar, I have recently been studying bees and plan to start a couple of hives this spring. This would give me my source for the sugars (honey). But also I have been studying of producing vinegar from Honey. What are your thoughts?

potato flakes are instant potatoes that you would buy from the store to make
mashed potatoes.

Loved the videos. I made some great bread and did the kneeding with my hand crank mixer. Please explain more about potato flakes. The only thing I find is potato flour. Do you mean instant potato?

Thanks for a great set of videos……………Gary

I am new to food storage products.
Where can gluten be purchased?
Can it be bought in bulk?
What is the shelf life of gluten?
Is gluten kept in the refrig?
Is gluten necessary to use or can the other items you show be substituted?
I really have enjoyed your “show me how” videos; I find them very helpful.

Bread flour already has gluten in it.

Can I use these three enhancers using a regular bread flour?

Thank you
