Testing dry yeast

Misc.

From the Red Star Yeast webpages:

Fill a 1-cup liquid measuring cup to the 1/2 cup level with warm water (110 to 115 degrees F). Stir in 1 teaspoon sugar and sprinkle with 2-1/4 teaspoons yeast (1/4-oz package). In 3 to 4 minutes, the yeast will have absorbed enough liquid to activate and start rising to the surface. If at the end of 10 minutes, the
yeast has multiplied to the 1 cup mark on the
measuring cup and has a rounded crown, it is very
active. The yeast mixture may then be used in your
recipe if baking immediately. Adjust the recipe for the 1/2 cup water used in the test. Discard yeast with slow activity.
