Baker's Yeast 100g
The living leaven behind every well-risen loaf
FRESH PRESSED · LIVE YEAST · 100 G
What it is
This 100g block of fresh pressed (compressed) yeast is a kitchen staple for anyone who bakes bread, pies, buns or pizza dough at home. A small piece goes a long way — it lifts dough gently and evenly, giving baked goods that familiar light, airy crumb and the aroma of freshly baked bread.
Unlike dried granules, fresh yeast gets to work almost as soon as it meets warm liquid, with no long proofing wait. It's the choice many home bakers and old-school cooks reach for when they want a reliably predictable rise.
Ingredients
Compressed baker's yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae). No additives or preservatives.
Crumble the amount you need into warm water or milk (around 30–35°C) with a pinch of sugar, let it activate for 5–10 minutes, then mix into your dough.
