Great big bag of yeast

This yeast is very active and almost immediately upon adding warm water, was foaming. It does not lax Mo and was easy to stir into the water. While proofing, my dough rose faster than expected. I used it to make yeast rolls, pizza dough, English muffins and gluten free sandwich bread. The yeast showed consistent rising across the different recipes. It also comes in a foil pouch which makes it easy to store fairly airtight. The flavor is rich and slightly sweet, which I prefer.

Fresh, Fine Granules That Blend Well

I originally planned to use this yeast for baking but didn't get the chance due to time constraints. What I did do is take a few of my meals (Red Beans and Rice and Curry chicken sauce) that I add flour to by adding a small amount of yeast while cooking to experiment with the textures of the sauces. The granules dissolved easily, blended smoothly, and appeared fresh with no clumping. I also like that the packaging is well-sealed and easy to store, and the 1-lb size offers great value for frequent bakers. While I didn't test rise performance in dough, my experience with the texture, freshness, and packaging quality was positive, and I would still use it for baking in the future.

Serves more purpose than just bread and pizza ……..

So I received this and first off I was shocked how big the package was . Was expecting little packets but it's 300 servings in the container . 🫙 have not baked with it as of yet but I did google what to make with active dry yeast and someone mentioned making a paste with the yeast and water and putting it on damp hair and let sit for 30 min . Provides essential vitamins for hair and improves shine and manageability. I am impressed so far .

Yeast with a twist

First off, we really wanted to give this a shot because it is unique. We are familiar with using wet yeast, but dry yeast not so much. This is meant to be more of an additive to what you are already baking, so it is taking us some getting to used to, but I think it will be well worth it once we find the right approach.

The yeast of my worries when I'm baking!

I've been using Member's Mark Instant Yeast for a while now, and it's become a regular item in my pantry. I bake bread at least once a week — everything from sandwich loaves to pizza dough and this yeast has been super reliable every time. It activates quickly and gives a nice, strong rise without any weird smell or aftertaste. I love that I can mix it straight into the flour without having to proof it first. It saves time, especially on busy weeknights when I'm throwing together dough for homemade pizza. The bag is also a great value for the amount you get. If you bake regularly, it's way cheaper than buying those little packets at the supermarket. I just keep it sealed tight (sometimes even store it in the fridge or freezer) and it stays fresh for months. Overall, it's dependable, affordable, and does exactly what you want yeast to do — no fuss. I'll definitely keep buying it.

Great buy

My family used this yeast to make homemade pizza dough, and the pizzas did not disappoint! The crust came out nice crispy, with the center being soft and full of flavor. We made hand tossed style and pan, and both came out delicious! Next time we're trying out homemade bagels and I can't wait!

Must need for baking!

The Member's Mark Red Instant Dry Yeast is a reliable and budget-friendly option for both beginner and experienced home bakers. The instant format is extremely convenient because it can be mixed directly into dry ingredients without needing to be activated in warm water, saving time and reducing extra steps. I've used this yeast for homemade bread, pizza dough, and dinner rolls, and it consistently delivers strong, even rises with great texture and flavor.

Fantastic product

I used this yeast to make the most delicious cinnamon rolls. They turned out perfectly! I'm excited to try more recipes. I love how big the packages are allowing for lots of use/recipes. It's always nice to be able to make a recipe in one day with this instant yeast.

Red instant dry yeast

Red instant dry yeast is really good for baking anything like bread pizzas. I really like the form of this yeast. It's great quality I would recommend. We made some pizza dough and sourdough bread with it.
