Typically vacuum-packed to preserve its potency, Instant Dry Yeast (IDY) is a dry yeast that resembles tiny particles of vermicelli. Because of its small particle size, IDY absorbs liquid rapidly and does not need to be hydrated before mixing into flour.
Able to be stored and used at room temperature, IDY is the ideal option for bakers not using fresh or compressed yeast.
