Wikipedia

  1. leavened

    Bread is a staple food prepared from a dough of flour (usually wheat) and water, usually by baking. Throughout recorded history and around the world, it has been an important part of many cultures' diet. It is one of the oldest human-made foods, having been of significance since the dawn of agriculture, and plays an essential role in both religious rituals and secular culture. Bread may be leavened by naturally occurring microbes (e.g. sourdough), chemicals (e.g. baking soda), industrially produced yeast, or high-pressure aeration, which creates the gas bubbles that fluff up bread. In many countries, commercial bread often contains additives to improve flavor, texture, color, shelf life, nutrition, and ease of production.

  1. leavened

    Leavened refers to a substance, typically a dough or batter, that has been made to rise or become light and porous through the process of fermentation. This is often achieved by incorporating a leavening agent, such as yeast, baking powder, or baking soda, which releases gases to create a fluffy or airy texture. For example, bread, cakes, and pastries are usually leavened.

Examples of leavened in a Sentence

  1. Richard Valantasis:

    In Eastern Orthodoxy, for example, the fasting rules are pretty elaborate -- no milk, no eggs, no meat, no fish with blood systems, and sometimes no leavened bread, even though the foods for Lent are really wonderful and tasty, they still remind you that you are in the middle of a fasting period and therefore, your eating habits continually reinforce the spiritual disciplines you're supposed to be working through.
