Q. Some of the ingredients required for bread making are
β
Correct Answer: (B)
Maida & Yeast
Explanation:
Maida (refined wheat flour) is the primary ingredient used for making bread.

Why not the other options?
- Baking Soda (A) is generally used in cakes and cookies but not in traditional bread-making.
- Baking Powder (C) is also used as a leavening agent but is more common in cakes and biscuits rather than yeast-based bread.
- Ghee (D) is used for richness and flavor in some baked goods but is not essential for making bread.
