(6 pack) Great Value Active Dry Yeast, 0.25 oz, 3 Count

This specific active dry yeast foamed when adding water, showing that the yeast was active, per the instructions. The packaging for the yeast is waterproof. You can not easily tear the packaging, which may cause the yeast to spill. There were approximately 2 1/4 teaspoons of yeast in each package. The yeast should not be opened near a wet surface because you may lose product due to its not-very-easy to tear packaging. It is difficult to reseal the yeast packaging. This specific active dry yeast does not seem different than other brands.

Great price and very fresh. My son sent me a kit for homemade pretzels. They were very good so I saved the recipe and was anxious to try it again. I bought the fresh GV yeast and it did not disappoint. The pretzels were delicious, rose just the right amount. The batter was very easy to work with and was not sticky and rose the exact amount it should during the brief resting. If you are a great cook/baker, your results using this yeast will be spectacular and if you find baking a challenge as I do, this superior yeast will make your attempt a success. Heck, I might even give sourdough another shot!

I've been using the Great Value Active Dry Yeast for a while now, and it never disappoints! The packets are perfectly portioned, easy to store, and always produce consistent, reliable results. My bread rises beautifully every time, with a perfect texture and flavor. It's affordable, high-quality, and a staple in my kitchen. Highly recommend for both beginner bakers and seasoned pros!

I have been buying Great Value yeast for several years now and do not see any difference in the quality between this and the much more expensive national brands.

when i make my pandesalllll, d only yeast i use. u can never go wrong in every 3 -4 cups of flour. and its affordable too.

I used this to make whole einkorn wheat bread. It gave a good rise for baking after 3 hours ( normal). Bread was soft and tasty.

It will work if you can't find other brands of yeast. However, I found that my breads were significantly less fluffy than when I used the Fleischmann's brand yeast despite proper use.

This is the second time I purchased it the first time it was expired and my bread didn't rise. This time it was not expired but bread still had a hard time rising and it didn't bubble the way it was supposed to after mixing with warm water and sitting. Bread came out ok but will be using a better rated brand of active dry yeast.

I ordered a JAR of yeast that cost way more than this dinky little $1.14 packet. its barely enough to make a batch of bread. if youre going to substitute $5.00 worth of yeast at least make it 4 packets!!!!! it's not rocket science.

I did not receive the red packets of yeast do I cannot give a review. I haven't used the blue packets so I cannot give a review on it either.
