Hi Can you freeze dried yeast? I have some that's getting near its date.I remember reading that dried yeast doesn't last long.

    Stored in the freezer, our dry yeast will keep for months past that expiration date. Far from hurting the little yeast cells, freezing puts them in a state of suspension. Keep them in an airtight container where they are protected from oxygen and humidity. The glass jar the yeast comes in is usually just fine.
