I can't remember which of these has which effect on yeast. Is it sugar that enhances the yeast, and the dough raising, effect and salt that suppresses it? This would seem logical, though I'm no chemist, because sugar would seem to "feed" the yeast while salt would "kill" it. Along these lines, if a bread recipe has salt but no sugar, would cutting the salt slightly, while adding sugar, cause the bread to raise more?
