Yeasts are used in bread production because they ferment sugars in the dough, producing carbon dioxide gas which causes the dough to rise and create a light and airy texture in the bread.
To protect and keep away bread and other food from molds, you can:
Store food in airtight containers to prevent mold spores from entering.Keep food in cool, dry places as mold thrives in warm, humid environments.Use fresh ingredients and avoid keeping food for extended periods.Clean and disinfect food storage areas regularly.Use vinegar as a natural mold inhibitor by spraying it on food or surfaces where mold may grow.
