Hey folks - I have a recipe I am working with that calls out "2 dry yeast cakes" as part of the recipe.
My understanding is that dry cake yeast was yeast that you can add dry to the other ingredients.
What would be the conversion for 1 dry yeast cake to IDY?
Have no clue and no idea how to make the conversion when a recipe says
"2 dry yeast cakes".
I'm thinking (since this recipe came for my 85 year old MIL) that a yeast cake = 1 package of yeast.
When I talk to her she tells me she used 2 squares of hard dry yeast. And didn't have to activate it.
So I have 7g/1 quarter oz of IDY. I'm thinking that 1 dry yeast cake in this reference would equal 1 pkg of IDY??
