Bakers - if you use a lot of yeast see if your local grocer sells this, if not Amazon (https://www.amazon.ca/dp/B000LRFVHE) has it.. It's a much better $ deal than buying individual packets or jars. The one I just finished lasted me several years (transferred to a sealed mason jar and kept in fridge) making bread every few weeks.
Wow, it lasts years? That would be so helpful.
It definitely lasts years in the fridge. Mine is so far past expired! I just finished using one expired in 2020! 😂
@NorthernInvader I probably need to do that, too! 😅 @GeezerWench
I also bought some wine yeast in smaller packets because I was interested in trying to make some SOMEDAY, and those just went straight into the fridge. Some year I might use one of them? 😆😅
@NorthernInvader Nope. This one expired in June 2022, but I just opened it this summer. Still works like a dream! I think the key is the foil vacuum-packed bulk yeast. @GeezerWench
