How Does the Classic Bread Rise?

Yeast acts by absorbing sugar.

In classical bread background, yeast has three principal

functions: fermentation, rising and activating the gluten.

The gluten in the dough contributes to the ridiculous and

addictive effect that later creates bread, gluten and starch
addiction.
