Can I use baking powder or baking soda as substitute for baking yeast?

Yes! The Irish have been making soda bread for hundreds of years, it can be substituted for regular bread, it is equally delicious, it's also quicker and easier to make. Try this: 170g/6oz self-raising wholemeal flour 170g/6oz plain flour ½ tsp salt ½ tsp bicarbonate of soda 290ml/½ pint buttermilk Heat the oven to400, 200C, or Gas 6 Mix together the salt and bicarbonate of soda in a large bowl, Make a well in the centre of the mix and stir in the buttermilk, Mix to form a soft dough, add either a little more flour, or a little milk if needed, it shouldn't be either too sticky or too solid.

Knead it briefly on a floured surface, and form the dough into a flattish round shape. Mark the top with a cross and bake in the oven for about 1/2 an hour. It should sound hollow when tapped.

Cool eat, enjoy with sweet or savoury toppings. Here are a few websites for more information and recipes.

NO. Yeast and Baking powder/ soda work in different ways. Yeast is a microorganism that converts starch into alcohol and carbon dioxide.

Yeast is most effective when the dough contains a high amount of gluten, a starchy, elastic substance found in wheat. Baking soda and powder rely on chemical reactions for their rising power.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
