Mike Adams wrote today in his newsletter about L-cysteine as well.
I found this recipe a couple years ago and used it sometimes in rolls:
Dough enhancer recipe
140 g lecithin granules
1 Tbs vitamin C powder (I used camu camu powder)
1 Tbs ginger, ground
Mix all ingredients 10 sec / speed 5 and store in tightly closed glass jar. Add to flour in amount equal to yeast with other ingredients.
Apparently, the ginger gooses the yeast and makes it act more swiftly, the ascorbic acid strengthens the gluten, and the lecithin aids the oil in causing the strands of gluten to slip against each other more easily and thus rise better.
