1 teaspoon instant (bread machine) yeast = 1 1/4 teaspoon active dry yeast.1 teaspoon active dry yeast = 3/4 teaspoon instant yeast.1 package instant yeast (2 1/4 teaspoons or 7 grams) = 1 1/4 package active dry yeast (2 4/5 teaspoons or almost 9 grams).Hope this helps!
Just use one packet of whatever you have - all of the packets contain the same amount. Active Dry Yeast, Instant Yeast, Rapid Rise Yeast, Fast Rising Yeast or Bread Machine Yeast are all the same. They just have different names. If your yeast is in a jar - use one level teaspoon.
Yes, because pizza dough is pretty much bread, and bread has yeast in it.
1% to 2%. I use about 1.25% ( of the weight of the flour )
Yes, that is theoretically possible. But it is unlikely. Many sweet yeast bread recipes contain quite a lot of sugar. If a sweet yeast bread fails to rise, the cause is usually something other than the amount of sugar. Yes
It can be used, although not with very tasty results. Self Raising Flour is a flour that has been pre-mixed with Yeast, although Yeast alone has a very powerful, pungent smell, its what gives bread most of its flavour. Using Strong White Bread Flour and Yeast seperately and not Self-Raising yields much better results and can be varied to suit any recipe.
If bread in the bread machine sinks on the top but is otherwise perfect, it is either too much liquid or an improper amount of yeast. Instant yeasts act differently from dry yeasts. If you use instant yeasts, you will need less than if you use dry yeasts. if the bread is otherwise perfect, it is more than likely a problem with the yeast rather than the liquid. Either way, the problem is in the recipe.
Sure can! Sugar is needed to sweeten a bread. It is also used to "proof" yeast. Any kind of sugar can be used in bread machine recipes, although dark sugars and molasses will change the appearance and taste of the bread. Refined and raw sugar are not much different than one another in this respect.
it is called unleavened bread or otherwise known as quick bread. It is called unleavened because it does not contain any leavening agent such as yeast. Try to check this out on Jewish bread recipes.
Depends on the bread, the yeast and other ingredients, but the basic ratio is 1.5 tablespoon of dry active yeast a sprinkle of sugar 2 cups of liquid (water or milk) 1 tablespoon of salt 6 cups flour Makes 2 loaves of bread.
Typically this is because you have used too much yeast or let it sit too long.
In yeast breads, salt limits the action of yeast by killing it. If you have too much salt, you might kill the yeast too quickly. The bread might also taste salty. In quick breads (those that rise with baking soda and/or baking powder), salt is used to add flavor, so too much salt will just make the bread taste more salty.
