Description
Nutritional yeast is a deactivated yeast, often a strain of Saccharomyces cerevisiae, which is sold commercially as a food product. It’s different from the yeast you use in baking because it doesn’t foam or froth. Because it’s inactive, it can’t cause dough or bread to ferment or rise.
Nutritional yeast has several benefits. One big benefit of nutritional yeast is that it is often high in B12. Aside from B12, nutritional yeast is also a “complete protein,” it contains other B vitamins, is low in fat and sodium, is free of sugar and gluten, and contains iron.
Nutritional yeast is yellow in colour with a nutty cheesy flavour similar to cheese when added into food which is a favourite among vegan.
Most Nutritional Yeast products are fortified with synthetic B-Vitamins, but not ours!
How to use: Sprinkle some on hot popcorn or garlic bread, or add a generous spoonful to a stir fry or pasta sauce. Nutritional Yeast is also the only reliable food source of Vitamin B12, so if you’re vegan, it’s a good idea to add some to your food regularly.
