Fresh yeast

[Anonymous No.17092199]

I often read it's very difficult to find it in American grocery stores, as opposed to dry yeast. Is it true? If so, why?

[Anonymous No.17092203]

>>17092199
Yes
Because it's not sold in grocery stores.

America doesn't have a big bread baking culture. It's mostly quick breads and such.

I have never used dry yeast and I dont know where I can even find it.

Check your local bakeries that bake the bread in house. They will usually have some and can probably sell you half a brick if you want.

It is available in most grocery stores. It's usually kept near the dairy section so it can be refrigerated.

>>17092203
Yes it is. Many people don't realize it's available because they go to the baking section and only see dry yeast. This is because dry yeast is kept near the flour and fresh yeast is kept refrigerated.

Nothing is difficult to find in american grocery stores. We have wider selection and more availability than you of basically every imaginable foodstuff.

This applies no matter where you live whatsoever
>but uhh you can't get uhh these european named cheeses of special origin
No, think again, we have a gigantic 18 foot wall of them actually.

You guys need to drop your bizarre misconceptions. This is literally the land of plenty. sorry if it doesn't match up with your internal reality.

We're also in a soviet union death spiral lead by ogigopolies and their money in politics, focus on that, not our superior availability of literally *all* products and superior purchasing power

Fresh yeast? Never heard of it (American) from what I can tell it's just activated yeast. But dried yeast activates when you use it so why do you want to buy a product that is 70% water and spoils quickly when dry does the same?

Europeans are fucking odd.

yes, we can, specialty retailers can be exempt from those rules and those rules don't even apply to finished products/to many states.

are you the same guy who posts shit like "Americans don't have butchers" every day?

I don't have any need to defend this country, but I do have every need to defend reality from lies. that is a fight that matters, it's literally good vs. evil

And I'm certain, though your threads that intend to inspire flamewars (a violation of site rules) are always based on false principles, that I could attack where YOU live accurately- for instance, the fact that your country has probably no relevant research universities, while we have the majority of them that exist in the world

when your kid or someone gets horribly burned one day and they get spray-on skin that heals the wound perfectly with no scarring, remember to thank us. thank us for the device you're using, on the internet we built, which still runs on our products today, many of them even using semiconductors that we still produce here

we just *don't care* about your shit the way you seem to endlessly care about us. it's little man syndrome, and trust us, we know who the little men are.

[Anonymous No.17092563]

>>17092199
No, it's not, you can get it very easily usually where the milk is. But most Americans don't make a lot of shit that requires yeast and fresh yeast goes bad too fast to warrant purchasing it over an envelope of the dried stuff which will last 6 months in your fridge so they're not aware that it's even available
Also fuck Europe

no, it's not. we can get it. that's the entire point of this country.

is it true that you can't get an education from a top 200 world ranked university? why, for many of you, yes, it is!

I understand the sentiment, but from what I can tell "fresh" yeast is just yeast that is currently alive and eating. Dried yeast is yeast that has been forced to be dormant. They are the same thing once dried yeast is wet. Nothing is "lost" like in other dried foods. It's still yeast.

It seems a huge pain to keep a fungus alive and fed in big bulk stores where Americans get their food. From what I've read, fresh yeast goes bad quickly because of course, it does. It's living. It doesn't make sense for Wal-Mart to carry such a fickle product when the average American doesn't care, and the ones who do can just go to a bakery or activate their own yeast by taking dried yeast and waking it up.

A lot of yeast cells die during the drying process, and that's why gives a harsh yeasty flavour to baked goods that use it.

Try it one day, bake something with fresh yeast. It's a completely different thing.

Neat I will! Thanks for the pro tip :D

[Anonymous No.17092601]

I think bakeries buy and use fresh yeast because its cheaper for them than to get it dried. Drying the yeast is another process added that costs money and time ect. But most bakeries use alot of yeast and they dont need it to be dried for long term storage.

Dried yeast is great for the home kitchen when you dont bake all the time. And it works the same as fresh yeast once you bloom it in water they start to multiply. Its just a matter of time before you have a thriving colony of live yeast.

Go to a bakery and ask for some.
If it's a shit bakery they will either not have it, or not be willing to give you some for spending money there.

We had a bad fresh yeast crisis during lockdown here so local stores and bakeries started to produce their own and sold it in tiny tups, it was even better than the branded fresh stuff.

Then why does everyone eat ultra processed garbage and all your meat and dairy come from animals reared in terrible conditions and given growth promoting hormones and antibiotics all for the sake of quantity and increasing profits at the expense of flavour and nutritional profiles?

Take a picture of your WHITE anemic butter and post it. Pathetic. Land of plenty yet you eat like fat toddlers. Get a passport loser.
