Is the nutritional yeast something different from the yeast in bread? I'm not supposed to have any yeast/bread type. What is nutritional yeast?

Hi, Sara, From grainddiction dot wordpress dot com : Brewer's yeast is a brewery-by-product, which is made from the pulverized (ground to very small particles) cells of Saccharomyces cerevisiae (yeast) and dried at high temperatures. Brewer's yeast do not contribute to leavening because the yeast had been killed. It is bitter in taste and normally used as a nutrient supplement as it is a source of B-complex vitamins, amino acids, calcium, phosphorus, potassium, chromium, and other nutrients. On the other hand, baker's yeast is dried at low temperatures so the yeast are not killed. It is used for leavening bread and other baked goods. The yeast species vary from Saccharomyces cerevisiae, Candida milleri to Lactobacillus sanfrancisco (which is normally for sourdough breads). And what about nutritional yeast? It is yeast which specifically grown for supplement. The form could be in powder or flake. It is sweet, nutty and cheesy because it is grown on a molasses solution (concentrated extracted juices of sugar cane and/or sugar beets). Nutritional yeast is close to brewer's yeast, as it is also dried at high temperature, resulting in inactive yeast. It also has similar nutrient profile to brewer's yeast, however more than 3tbsp/day may raise uric acid levels.

As far as I know is a dry yeast (as is added to bread dough) fortified with vitamins B1, B2, B3, B6, B12 and folate.

Yes it is different. Active yeast is used in bread to make it rise. Nutritional yeast is a good cheese alternative for vegans and does not have active yeast. It is a good source of protein and has a cheesy taste.

I am afraid I can't really answer your question beyond being able to comment about the taste. Nutritional yeast is cheesy, nutty and savory. I don't believe you can say that about baking yeast. I suggest you do some research to see if baking yeast and nutritional yeast are "related" beyond the name. All I know is that bread yeast is alive - nutritional yeast is inactive and they aren't a substitute for each other!

Yes it is, it is dried, and rendered inactive. So it will not work to make bread rise, nutritional yeast is high in protein though, and is part of the mushroom family. Often it is used to make a vegetarian of vegan meal healthier, at least as far as I can tell.

Google is a wonderful source of information. I didn't know the answer, but go to: www.milkandhoneyhealthfoods.com/brewers-yeast-versus-nutritional-yeast for the best explanation I found.

This is an Italian yeast (seems lighter in rising than original American yeast) however, it does have an added vanilla base. I use it to make Biscotti Di Prato, an Italian twice-baked cookie/bread, and the taste is delicious and have had no problems. I have not used it in other baking items. I am sorry I can't help there.

The Nutritional Yeast (grown on molasses), itself, is a source of B vitamins, but is fortified with additional B vitamins, such as niacin, B-12, thiamine, and riboflavin for "additional dietary support," according to the canister.

I'm not sure, but I think so. I've used their bread mix which comes with yeast.

You have to use Instant dry yeast instead of Active dry yeast in your bread machine. I hope that helps:)

I don't exactly know the answer, but I will say that this is not "active" yeast like you would use to bake bread. Almost 100% positive that that means no, it won't ferment apple juice, or anything else.

NO. This is a primary grown yeast is not used to make bread. This is a nutritional flavoring. Whereas a Brewery by-product is what makes up a Brewer's Yeast.

No. According to the manual: Use "Quick" for quick breads that do not use yeast and require only mixing and baking.

the secret is sugar. whatever i make, i always add one table spoon of sugar. sugar helps yeast growing. and you can also start with the dough cycle, then keep it in the machine for several hour, then just use the bake cycle. that way the bread will have more time to grow. shouldn't be too hard.

Hi, Charyl! We have used Nutritional Yeast for years for flavoring. It tastes kind of like cheese so you sprinkle it on things like baked potatoes, veggies, etc. You can also make a nice cheese sauce for your macaroni noodles. Most folks who use it are vegan. The yeast used for bread is baking yeast. You can find it in any grocery store. Make sure the ingredients say only "yeast" with no other additives. That is the healthiest kind. God bless- AMR

Here is the exact answer on Fleischmann's web: http://breadworld.com/education/Yeast-Basics (this is a Flei... web page). The answer copied and pasted: "RapidRise® Yeast is the same as Bread Machine Yeast and Instant Yeast. (Instant Yeast is the a 1 pound package of Fleischmann's® Yeast sold at Sam's Club.)"I'm ordering today and will report when I've used it a few times.

No. For bread making you would use baker's yeast. This yeast is a dietary supplement that has a "cheese-like" flavor that can be sprinkled onto foods or added to smoothies. I purchased this brand because it comes from molasses instead of sugar beets. Most of the sugar beets are GMO.

I use bread machine yeast. It comes in a small jar and I use about a teaspoon more than the recipes call for.

I read though the ingredients several times to be sure, but I didn't see yeast in any form. There is soy in several forms, potato flakes, ground veggies and sea salt. not even anything I can't pronounce and have no idea what they are.

Quick breads don't normally use yeast. Are you making a quick bread or a yeast bread? The lumpy mess could because you are not using enough liquid. Is the dough dry and lumpy? A better description of ingredients and type of bread would help.

NO. not successfully. Yeast is necessary for good bread making. This machine does a good job as is required. Alvin.
