RED STAR® Active Dry Yeast is cake yeast in a semi-dormant state. The drying process in its manufacture reduces moisture content to about 7%, giving it a longer shelf life than regular cake yeast. When rehydrated, it provides ultimate baking activity in all yeast dough, and low sugar to highly sweetened breads. For traditional baking, Active Dry Yeast may be hydrated in 110°-115°F liquids or mixed with other dry ingredients if liquids are heated to 120° to 130°F. To use Active Dry Yeast in a bread machine, use 3/4 teaspoon of yeast for each cup of flour and have liquids at 80°F liquids. Active dry yeast is not recommended for use on one-hour or less bread machine cycles.
