Just as a matter of form, I let the yeast, water and sugar activate separately, but it's not a big deal. I'm not big on rules in cooking! I haven't tried that, adding the dough enhancer in with the yeast, but if it's working, then I wouldn't worry about it. I might even try it as an experiment!

Thanks a ton! :) :wave: i have been making the dough enhancer and was just here to make another batch when i noticed i am supposed to add the dough enhancer when i add the flour. oops, i have been adding with the water while the yeast activates. does this hurt the bread or the enhancer when i did this? still tasted ok, but i never tried adding it with the flour. what is the difference?

If I remember correctly I used two tablets. I saw them used in another dough enhancer recipe on another site. (Don't remember what site~~) Hi Christiane,

Can I use crushed Vitamin C tablets (400 mg each tablet) instead of the Ascorbic Acid crystals. I was reading online and some have had major reaction to the Ascorbic acid crystals in bread recipes. And would I be able to use equal amount of Vitamin C for the Ascorbic Acid crystals. Thanks and God bless you.

I tried to explain what it was and they looked at me like I was violating some hidden rule of bread making ... they must like eating really dense breads.
