Instant yeast from Hollandia in a 500 g pack for low sugar recipes, added straight to the dough, made in the EU.
Hollandia Instant Yeast comes in a firm silver 500 g pack with the red Hollandia name and a red, white and blue diagonal stripe, labelled Instant Yeast, Levure Instantanée, Instant Hefe and Levadura Instantánea. The back panel describes it as yeast for low sugar recipes and gives the directions: add to the dough during the first stage of mixing. The ingredients are yeast (Saccharomyces cerevisiae) and the emulsifier sorbitan monostearate (E491). It is made in the EU and should be stored in a cool, dry place. As general background, baker's yeast is a strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae used as a leavening agent; it makes bread rise by turning the sugars in dough into carbon dioxide. Instant yeast needs no proving in water first. Mix it with the flour at the start for bread, rolls, pizza dough, flatbreads and buns.
