Published in Tips and Notes
Using yeast isn’t difficult and it is very satisfying to make real bread.
Bread made with fresh yeast seems to have the best flavour, but dry yeast is also excellent. Instant yeast works, but bread made with it tends to dry out very quickly, and the flavour isn’t as good.
