Questions About This Product

The things people actually want to know before they cook with it.

My recipe calls for instant or rapid rise yeast. Can I use this instead?
Yes, with a small adjustment. Use 1 1/4 teaspoons of active dry yeast for every 1 teaspoon of instant yeast the recipe lists. In the other direction, 1 teaspoon of active dry equals about 3/4 teaspoon of instant. Instant yeast recipes usually add the yeast straight to the dry ingredients, so you will also need to add a rehydration step, and the dough may take somewhat longer to rise.
Will this work in a bread machine?
Yes. Active dry yeast can generally replace bread machine yeast one for one, so the quantity in your bread machine recipe does not need changing. The difference is the order of operations, since bread machine yeast is designed to go in dry with everything else.
How many packets worth is in an 8 oz bag?
A standard yeast packet is 1/4 oz, so an 8 oz pouch holds about 32 packets. Since most bread recipes call for a single packet, that works out to roughly 32 loaves from one bag.
Is this the same thing as nutritional yeast?
No, and they cannot be swapped. Nutritional yeast is dried at a higher temperature that inactivates it, so it has no leavening ability at all and is used as a savory seasoning. This is live baking yeast, which is what makes dough rise.
