Caputo Active Dry Yeast 100g

Mulino Caputo's dry yeast is simply brewer's yeast produced from a rigorously selected and 100% Italian strain and fed only with Italian molasses: a particular type of sugar obtained from beet and sugar cane. It is thanks to this nourishment and oxygen that the yeast cells begin to reproduce and multiply. This process is called fermentation. After fermentation, the yeast is separated from the molasses and first washed to remove impurities, then centrifuged and finally dehydrated and reduced to microgranules. So, just like flour, yeast is an absolutely natural product!

This yeast has a high fermentative power and is ideal for making all types of dough and leavening giving an incomparable taste.
