Question 1

What is the difference between nutritional yeast flakes, brewer's yeast and dry yeast?

Accepted Answer

Yeast flakes are so special, they have several names. In supermarkets you can find yeast flakes also under the names nutritional yeast and noble yeast. In some English recipes you will probably have come across the name nutritional yeast. This means the same thing in each case: Yeast flakes, as you find them with us.

However, you should not confuse yeast flakes with normal baker's yeast and dry yeast - these types of yeast are not intended for raw consumption. Yeast extract also refers to something else, namely a flavor enhancer. Likewise, brewer's yeast has nothing to do with yeast flakes. Brewer's yeast was bred especially for breweries and does not taste pleasantly spicy like our yeast flakes, but slightly bitter.

Question 2

Are nutritional yeast flakes a superfood?

Accepted Answer

Nutritional yeast flakes are a real superfood. And that is the case for our nutritional yeast flakes made in Germany. Nutritional yeast flakes have a high nutrient density and are considered a source of calcium. They also have a high content of iron and magnesium. And last but not least, they contain high amounts of vitamins B1, B2, B3 and B6 and biotin. However, since the B vitamins are sensitive to heat, you should not cook the nutritional yeast flakes, but stir or sprinkle them onto the finished dish if possible.

Question 3

What does "inactive" yeast mean?

Accepted Answer

In the production of yeast flakes, the yeast cream is heated. In the process, the yeast fungi lose their natural leavening power, which otherwise makes dough for pizza, yeast plaits and bread grow almost magically. This is because the now inactive yeast can no longer form carbon dioxide and alcohol.
