Yeast
Yeast is a single-celled fungus used as a leavening agent in baked goods and for fermentation. It has a mild, slightly earthy flavour and is crucial for the airy texture of bread and pastries. It is available as fresh, dry active, or instant yeast.
Yeast is fundamental for baking, especially for various types of bread, rolls, and pizza dough. It is typically combined with flour, water, sugar, and salt to activate its leavening properties. Recipes range from simple doughs to more complex breads and pastries like Naan or Dampfnudeln.
