I was considering trying to bake bread using buttermilk instead of regular milk. I found this recipe:
Clayton's Buttermilk Whole Wheat Bread | The Fresh Loaf
I noticed that they have baking powder in the recipe. What is the purpose of the baking powder if you are using active yeast? I assume it has something to do with the acid in the buttermilk.
I had seen another recipe that used vinegar in addition to buttermilk (again, active yeast bread). That sounds like adding more acid, though, what does that do?
