A Question About Yeast

Options
If a recipe states fast acting yeast can you used dry instead. If so, do I need to activate it or can I just use it in the recipe as stated?

Thank you

    You can use dried yeast instead of fast-acting yeast, but you do need to activate it, according to the instructions on the packaging, first.
    If you fold it in half, will an Audi A4 fit in a Citroen C5? :)
  • Thank you. I thought this would be the case but felt it wise to check first.
