Leavening agent

A leavening agent (/ˈlɛvənɪŋ/, also leaven agent; /ˈlɛvən/), also known as a raising agent, is any one of a number of substances used in doughs and batters that causes a foaming action that lightens and softens. The leavening agent incorporates gas bubbles into the dough. The alternative or supplement to leavening agents is mechanical leavening by which air is incorporated by mechanical means. Most leavening agents are synthetic chemical compounds, but carbon dioxide can also be produced by biological agents. When a dough or batter is mixed, the starch in the flour mixes with the water in the dough to form a matrix (often supported further by proteins like gluten or polysaccharides like pentosans or xanthan gum), then gelatinizes and "sets"; the holes left by the gas bubbles remain.

Types of biological leavening agents

  • baker's yeast

    Quentin: For Christ's sake, Worth, what do you live for? Do you have a wife, or a girlfriend, or something?::Worth: Nope. I've gotta pretty fine collection of pornography.

    Leaven: [Leaven, Kazan & Worth reaching the exit of the cube] What are you doing? You can't quit now. It's not your fault!::Worth: I have nothing... to live for out there.::Leaven: What is out there?::Worth: Boundless human stupidity.::Leaven: I can live with that.

    Quentin: I'm not dying in a fucking rat maze!

    Rennes: No more talking. No more guessing. Don't even think about nothing that's not right in front of you. That's the real challenge. You've gotta save yourselves from yourselves.

    Worth: Hey! Listen to what I'm saying. We haven't been moving in circles, the rooms have.

    Worth: What do ya think?::Leaven: You don't have a lot of lives left.

    Quentin: Is that your two cents worth, Worth?::Worth: For what it's worth.

    Quentin: Who do you think the establishment is? It's just guys like me. Their desks are bigger, but their jobs aren't. They don't conspire, they buy boats.

    [Quentin and Holloway are discussing who could have made the cube]::Quentin: This place is... remember Scaramanga? The bad guy in "The Man With The Golden Gun?" It's some rich psycho's entertainment::Holloway: [laughs] Is that what you think?

    Leaven

    (spoken)
    There’s always something missing
    Perfection’s come and gone
    Someone’s always off the mark
    When all the rest are on
    No use in your denying
    You can’t escape the facts
    For every one who makes it
    There’s one slips through the cracks
    (sung)
    I will always wonder if there could have been another
    When I find a moment alone to reflect on the day
    It will fill my heart to flowing over all
    Come and take away this rock where I stumble and fall
    A compelling reason to follow in steps I’ve not known
    If I fall in battle I’ll know it’s the war that I own
    It will fill my life till nothing remains
    Come and break apart this fortress that keeps me in
    chains
    Fires of Heaven, burn through me
    Touch of Leaven, make me free
    (spoken)
    The wine is in the sangraal
    It beckons, for it’s pure
    It’s a paragon of freedom
    In a world no longer sure
    (sung)
