Elevate your baking with Lesaffre Philippines’ fresh yeast for industrial and artisanal bakers
fresh yeast
In the Philippines and across APAC, compressed fresh yeast is the preferred choice for both industrial and craft bakers due to its practicality, reliability, and consistent fermentation performance
Here are some tips to help you consider if fresh yeast is right for you:
Use Lesaffre Philippines’ fresh yeast products to achieve rich flavours, excellent fermentation, and delicious results across a wide range of bread recipes.
Because fresh yeast has a shorter shelf life and is best used within a week when stored in the refrigerator, it’s the ideal choice for frequent baking or preparing large batches, such as during the holidays. This is why fresh yeast is also known as a "special occasion yeast."
Professional bakers consider fresh yeast the best option for bread, as it adds a more robust flavour.
To use it in a recipe that calls for dry yeast, double the amount. Then, crumble it and let it soften and dissolve in whatever liquid the recipe calls for (warm the liquid to just lukewarm) before adding it to your dry ingredients. Always soften or dissolve fresh yeast in liquids before mixing to ensure even distribution throughout the dough.
