Convenient, fast-acting yeast for perfect baking results

Instant Dry Yeast

EXPLORE more

What is Instant Dry Yeast?

  • Typically vacuum-packed to preserve its potency, Instant Dry Yeast (IDY) is a dry yeast that resembles tiny particles of vermicelli.
  • Because of its small particle size, IDY absorbs liquid rapidly and does not need to be hydrated before mixing into flour.

Able to be stored and used at room temperature, IDY is the ideal option for bakers not using fresh or compressed yeast.

Characteristics

Here are some tips to help you consider if instant dry yeast is right for you:

Achieve faster mixing times compared to compressed yeast.
Avoid direct contact with ice or iced water when in use.
IDY has good tolerance for high-temperature dough.

How Can You Use Instant Dry Yeast?

Simplify your daily baking operations with this efficient addition to your recipes!

Instant dry yeast activates very quickly, making it suitable for breads that can be made within a day.

Instant yeast does not need to be activated before it's added to your recipe, saving you plenty of preparation time.

Instant dry yeast is a highly versatile choice and can be used to bake various types of sweet and lean breads, pizza crusts and more.
