In Asia Pacific, compressed yeast is the go-to choice for both industrial and craft bakers due to its practicality.
The rich flavour that fresh yeast provides is only one of its many advantages!
Incorporate fresh yeast into your recipes for rich, delicious bread.
As fresh yeasts are best used within a week of storage in your fridge, they’re the ideal choice when you'll be baking often or in large amounts, such as the holidays.
This is why fresh yeast is also known as a "special occasion yeast."
Professional bakers tend to say this yeast is the best yeast for bread, as it adds a more robust flavour.
To use it in a recipe that calls for dry yeast, double the amount, crumble it and let it soften and dissolve in whatever liquid the recipe calls for (warm the liquid to just lukewarm) before adding it to your dry ingredients. Always soften or dissolve fresh yeast in liquids before mixing, or it will not distribute evenly throughout the dough.
