Otherwise you’ll end up with a dense hockey puck. Not the texture I’d go for in bread, but you’re welcome to it. While it is possible to do a bread like this without, the length of time it takes for enough yeast to develop naturally to make it rise (unless you live in a bakery), is ridiculous – I did try it – after 24 hours it had risen maybe 10% above its starting point – nowhere near doubling – and was becoming too sour to end up being tasty.
