In addition to flour improvers and bleaching agents, anti-staling agents are often used in bread-making. In fresh bread the starch molecules are arranged in a completely haphazard and random manner, whereas in stale bread they are arranged in a more orderly way. Anti-staling agents may act by combining with components of starch in such a way to prevent the starch molecules from taking up an orderly arrangement. 3, record 2, English, - anti%2Dstaling%20agent
