Product type
Instant dry yeast is a type of yeast that is dehydrated and can be used directly in baking without prior proofing. It is composed of live yeast cells that are dormant until activated by moisture and warmth. This product is commonly used in the baking industry for bread, rolls, and other fermented products due to its ability to produce carbon dioxide and alcohol during fermentation, which helps dough rise and develop flavor.

When selecting instant dry yeast, consider the specific application and the desired fermentation characteristics. Look for yeast with a high active dry yeast content for optimal performance.

It may also be beneficial to inquire about the yeast's rehydration requirements and fermentation times to ensure compatibility with existing processes.
