Häufig Gestellte Fragen
Does active dry yeast need to be dissolved first?
Traditionally yes, in warm water (105-110 F). However, modern active dry yeast can often be mixed directly into dry ingredients.
Can I use instant yeast instead of active dry?
Yes, use about 25% less instant yeast than active dry. Instant yeast can be mixed directly into flour without proofing in water.
How do I know if yeast is still active?
Dissolve in warm water with a pinch of sugar. If it foams within 10 minutes, it is still active.
