    No yeast in my local Aldi, Tesco, Morrisons or Sainsburys. I'd never seen it in Aldi pre-lockdown maybe they vary lines by store. Doesn't look like I've 'just missed' it in the other stores as the out of stock sign has always been covering the price (they don't seem to be bothering using those with the things that come and go like flour).
    I've switched to sourdough for pizza making which is working well and trying to draw out what dried yeast I have left from pre lockdown; baking around a loaf a week to provide bread between weekly shops (small freezer and prefer unsliced too).

    I just received 500g of Fermipan Instant Red Dried Yeast from Amazon.  I paid £10.99 delivery included, but I see that the price has gone up. It is long dated and I will portion up and freeze it.  Reviews are generally v. good, but there were a few not so, based on this I decided to open it yesterday (even tho' I have a little Allinson's left).
    I made a small size seeded loaf in the Panasonic BM using a Wessex Mill blend and I and the OH who eats it (I am GF) are delighted with the result.
