Measurement Tip
Active Dry Yeast is a high-impact ingredient—even small measurement errors can significantly affect your baking. Always use proper measuring spoons (not regular cutlery) and level off with a straight edge. Too much active dry yeast can cause over-rising and collapse, while too little results in dense baked goods.
